TheChiScientist is being targeted. If you look at the letters that are missing in each tag, they spell out thdhiscientist (I probably messed up decoding it somewhere in between but that is very very close to the correct spelling. I suggest a protect.

If you assume <dl> is supposed to be <dEl> and color:adetblue is supposed to be cadetblue, then it spells thechiscientist

Oof, looks like I got ignored, but maybe the fifth move is O-O-O. (Since you can't castle queenside until the fifth move.)

Shoot sorry I missed that...

But what could this all mean?

Also, can someone slap a protect on tcs?

I slap a protect on myself based on the reasoning stated by the people above. Also someone protect TheMadScientist in case they're the target. (Since our usernames are pretty similar...)

Any chance the fact that the sassy omitted the word "know" in his signature means anything? Also, I've racked my brains but cant think of anything, but I still feel like we missed something in the last clue.

Idk... kinda just a feeling... the letters in the signature kinda spell “person” and a word that is refer to the person the speaker is addressing can be, well, person...

I don't think Person has been active in a sassy game for a while tho.
