If it's not me I'm going to be shocked. Literally every part of this clue relates to me.

Thanks friend! :)

I'm worried that the sassy is tricking us because this seems to obvious. We should try to find other people this clue works for. Fluffy is pretty obvious, maybe Fib and East?
I'll go and protect myself then.

We still have to remember that Rowena may not be a reference to the Ravenclaw at all. Lady Rowena is the classic "damsel in distress" in Sir Walter Scott's novel Ivanhoe, a Romance. It has, however, been adapted into plays, so Panda Weasley's love of theater may well be what's being referenced here.

EDIT: Panda's status states her location as in "Ravenclaw Tower". If that's not connected to Lady Rowena I will eat my medals.

I googled this and came up with a song called "You Know My Name" by Chris Cornell.

Didn't Bernard go to Cornell?

To be honest, that looks like a coincidence. Bernard doesn't really fit any of the ID clues thus far.

Additionally, why exactly would Bernard be a Sassy? It's possible, and if it is the case, I'd applaud Dragon_Fruit35 (they were the last sassy right?) for trolling us. :lol:

It could be a coincidence, but the ID clue matches the song pretty perfectly.

I'm not too familiar with these games; is it common for admins/mods to be sassy?

I don't know, but "you know my name" seems like a pretty generic title for a song and a pretty common phrase.

Yes, but the lyrics also contain:

This would make sense. However, we are imagining Sassy to be female, because of a reference to bloomers a while back. Certainly many people go to Cornell who AREN'T Bernard and ARE female? This is a very good find, though.

Also notate that Cornell is going to be the 2019 Nats Tournament. Perhaps someone will graduate that year or have a school nearby? Just at thought.
