And the lack of punctuation where it needs to be...I think quadratic is more likely than Random or fm. I know Random pretended to have horrible grammar once, but that was way over the top. It wasn't as subtle as this is, like this person honestly doesn't know they made grammatical errors.

"I hope this letting finds you well." is not incorrect grammar; its just an outdated, formal way of speaking. (It means "I hope that when you get this letter, you are well", not "I hope this letter does a good job of finding you".)

Well, it's been nearly a day without a statement by the assasstornado. That and the sig thing are good enough for me- as nearly every other one of our early suspects has been on for an extended period of time today/yesterday, I accuse IdahoSciGuy for this and all those other reasons I mentioned earlier. (Otherwise it will bug me all game.)

You should be more careful when choosing your Irregulars Holmes, for already they have proved their failings. I am not IdahoSciGuy. If I were you, Holmes, I would check to see if zyzzyva98 is one of Lestrade's undercover officers, for he is showing signs of inneptitude.

Electric piano yields to strings,
Drummer strikes a beat,
High-hat leads into sweet melodies.


And so it begins Holmes. You have now had time to round up the Irregulars. I have delivered the first clue. And your Irregulars have made one wrong accusation.

You may want to inform Scotland Yard of the precedings. I do not think the big Mr. City Policeman Lestrade will be very happy when the murders begin if he finds out you had information that could have prevented them. But I have seen him work in the past and would not want him to slow you down.
BWhat do they all have the same of?
AThe Lady died with him but was not born until long after, in 1954.
Correction: A + B + [space] + [Two letters, both uppercase]
If the Lady were real, she would not have died 362 years before she was born.

I swear, this writing style seems strangely familiar...it actually reminds me of my own, or someone like Koko or Luo or Z. Before you think about accusing me, I'm on vacation, with very limited Internet access (people who are friends with me on fb can confirm this).

Also, I would wager that this game has been planned for a while, judging by the lengthy posts.

I'll likely have plenty of time to think this all over tomorrow on the bus/plane, so I s'pose I'll get back to you all on this later.
