my partner will have to clarify whether the clue is a kill clue or not.

the bottom most part is "word study" in base64.
the second part looks like a date, but backwards... Idk if the 3 is the month or date though
and the first part looks like a version of something although I'm not sure what.

Since this game is going very slowly let's just randomly accuse/kill people...

We can't, since we have to wait for these slackers to pass through the votes

Oh yes, the votes are in, and amerikestrel is dead. And not the assassinator either.

brobo, you are dead. If you post again, you will be reprimanded.

Also, you no longer need a second on a protect. This will make it quicker.

My conterpart has an identity clue ready to be posted soon. For now, you will need to make two protects.

Note that each of the first four groups is from a different combination of hemispheres, the last on the same line of latitude.

Location checking NOW.

I accused sweetcoop, by the way, because of the grammar and the fact that he has indeed been active recently. Just a guess, we're running out of names.

EDIT: Assassinator, can you tell us more specifically what we need to be looking for in the latitude longitude clues? Many of the locations are far from anywhere recognizable of a specific location.

Sorry for the double post, but when things get down this far, I like to keep things organized:
Image
Yes, that's Microsoft Office Excel 2003. How observant. Someone remind me to update that, okay?
Not sure on the killed/accused people which way they died. Just went off starpug's list. And starpug- got a bit of updating to do?

So here's what we have. I checked the last login of everyone who is still around, and only one was not from the past two days. ddudealex hasn't been on for a month. These assassins are slow, but not that slow. ophiophagus is hidden, but has not played a part in the game recently- still an option though.

Here's the ten we have left:
AlphaTauri
Analysis: Good player, but I'd hope that she would have better grammar and be more active as the assassinator. Doesn't make sense to me.
IdahoSciGuy
Analysis: Idaho normally makes strong clues, and while it's extremely possible he made some of the quickly-shredded ones, I'd think his clues would take a bit longer. He also runs up against the same problems Alpha does with grammar and activity.
Jocool
Analysis: Here's someone we haven't heard from in awhile. The lack of activity makes me think against him being the assassinator, but you never know. He does not come on as often as some of us, and additionally the grammar could fit. Oh, and "we have lives" sounds like something trajectoryroxs would say, and since she's dead, Jocool's the next best bet.
kjhsscioly
Analysis: Like most games, kjhsscioly is flying under the radar. Keep an eye out- with just ten of us left 20% of the people on the list will be posing as the assassinator. kjhs wouldn't be a terrible guess.
ophiophagus
Analysis: He's hidden, as shown before, and normally hidden people have something to hide. Still, when he has posted (last post 11/15) he's been helpful.
quizbowl
Analysis:Oh, quizbowl. He fits the mold almost perfectly. Almost. The bad grammar certainly points to him, and he does have a good general knowledge to make some of these clues. BUT he's been on nearly every day. You'd think the game would move along quicker with him at the helm.
RandomPerson
Analysis: RandomPerson is always a strong player, but I'd expect him to be stronger with his grammar, activity, and clues, than this assassinator has been. But then, where's he been? Not much activity on the thread.
sweetcoop
Analysis: My accusation for this round, sweetcoop just seems to match up with the grammar and irregular posting times. It just makes sense to me, check him out for yourself.
winneratlife
Analysis: Not much to really say here, he simply has not been very active on the thread. He's still around though, and does go to math competitions. He'd be most apt to come up with math clues out of the final 10.
zyzzyva98
Analysis: Well, this is awkward. I suppose I'm by far the most active on the thread, which got me caught in 51. But hypothetically, if I'm the assassinator, why am I getting targeted so much? (There, I gave you a for and an against to be fair.)

There you have it, ten suspects, ten pieces of analysis, and somewhere, two assassinators. Can we please find them and end this game?

EDIT: Ahh, forgot Paradox21.He's not dead or accused. I don't think. My bad. Analysis: Just remember Paradox has been able to manipulate us, especially with grammar, before.

So you really think I am an assassin when my life has been really really buisy for the past few weeks.

well, I would like to mention that I am still following this, but haven't had the time to post before someone beats me to it. However, know that I check everyday, so I can still accuse.Because there are so many players, there was little intervention needed, but if there arefewer good officers, I will step into clue solving more. looking at the assassinator speaking pattern, I would agree with Z, sweetcoop does seem likely, but the long clues are a bit out of character. That kind of clue makes Zyzzyva high on the suspect list. I will post a vote tommorow (hopefully).

edit: I accused Sweetcoop for the reason above, but also because the assassinator with the sloppy grammer said that they were very busy which sweetcoop has also been saying.
