[knottingpurple]

Tentative list:
1: ?
2: IRC
3: Eaststroudsburg13
4: Reddit
5: Tide Pods
6: Wedge
7: Convection, Carlsen
8: Cirrus
9: Pineapple?
10: Princeton
11: Origami
12: Planet?
Someone should protect OrigamiPlanet - I already have 3 accusations.

I protect OrigamiPlanet due to the reasoning above.
Also, what order are your numbers in?

The numbers as well as the arrangement of clues changed when the sassy edited the post, according to the new numbering, the words should be:

Across
4 origami
5 tidepods
7 convection
10 pineapple
11 irc
12 eaststroudsburg13

Down
1 reddit
2 cirrus
3 bacteriophage
6 princeton
8 carlsen
9 wedge
10 planet

Good evening, officers - any time is a good time to solve a clue, and your avoidance of - phony leads has sure paid off in your correct protection of OrigamiPlanet. It’s time to take it up a notch, however. We will need the most - brainy of the bunch to make sense of your next task.
72 hours, good luck. Hopefully my slight delay won’t come under too much - scrutiny.

CLRS

Reminds me of those hexadecimal color codes...
000080 is navy blue.
ffa500 is orange.
ffffff is white.

So something that is navy blue, orange, and white.

EDIT: Also, it seems to me that the first note contains a surprisingly large quantity of hyphens. It could be someone in NYC because the NYC flag is prange, blue, and white.

CLRS = Colors.
Navy Blue, Orange, and White are the colors.
LCTN = Location.
30N, 95W is Houston, TX.

We need something blue, orange and white in Houston.

Lumosityfan's avatar is blue, orange, and white, and likes the Houston Astros.
I protect lumosityfan based on the reasoning above.

Plus, he used to live in Houston. I think we've got our man.

Actually, 30, -95 is Houston. 30,95 is somewhere in China.

Or your avatar? It seems kinda blue and orange and white to me.

Edit: nevermind, I didn’t see the posts about lumosityfan.
