Scioly Assassination 76: Blue Sands

/me is using IE right now. >.<

Did not expect this much discussion, but after reading the first sassy post, looks like another good narrative-based game is in store.

Too bad I'm not participating.

It should be on not only. Stupid fast typing with spellcheck.

Obviously not an Internet Explorer user.

Who on earth would want to use IE anyways? (Luo, don't comment.)

I certainly would. Why wouldn't you want to use IE?

This assassinator can't tell the difference between there and their, or use punctuation. I wonder if harryk followed the example of his predecessor and chose himself. The assassintor is also using braces instead of parenthesis or brackets.

D'you really think he would choose himself right after I chose myself? It'd be a bit obvious, eh?

Not really. Seems perfectly fine to me.

What version?

And that wraps it up. The officer spots are full. For those of you still wallowing in your puddle of confusion, the answer was Paul Newman. The first part went to St. Paul which most of you figured out. The second part was Newman's Own Organics, which make all the products listed.
First clue will be posted soon.

Somehow I knew this was going to happen, I was even considering choosing myself but decided not too for this very reason
Though I am surprised that the sassy has made such an elaborate scenario

Is the blue sand a reference to the old SciFi story "the arena"?

[tuftedtitmouse12]

who are the 5 officers?

Silence. And in answer to your earlier question, no I do want you to aid the officers. In fact I'd prefer it if you would stay out of this game altogether.

Few people were eager to take on my challenge. Eventually five members replied. Some thought they were prepared to question my identity. But no matter, they will soon be occupied trying to keep there comrades breathing. An ambiguous message suddenly appeared on the message boards. Three blanks, below which two sentences were written.

A city invaded by a nation, with one of the oldest capitals in the world, in a war over the love of the most beautiful woman in the world, which ended with trickery. Followed by a synonym for institute. 

You have forty-eight hours.

Troy, of course.

The assassinator's signature...?

Edit: The "there", "their" thing seems to be intentional, at least in this post.
