Being an absolute newcomer, I don't if I can post in here, but, I believe all the victims of the killer were women…just saying

Well I meant that the next victim could be a girl?

Nah, that's not nitpicking. Very true, I should really stop posting at midnight when I'm sick,
Regardless, that doesn't make the clue much better.

Assassinator, I do not appreciate you ignoring my comments, I want a response from you on why you made that so difficult, and that you won't make it so hard again.

For the clue, I thought that 1:15 could refer to season one, episode 15. I noticed the date that the episode first aired, and looked for people who joined that day. However, the people who joined on that day don't have any association with the assassination games. another thing is that the clue might not refer to criminal minds.

That is not necessarily true, for I am a new player that knows about Gneissisnice from reading the posting game archives.

On a side note, I finally figured out how to get the quote function working.

I think either it is an older player who has been the assassinator more than once.

Or a newcomer that knows to do research but isn't paying enough attention to the game, or is choosing not too.

Here is a site containing the plot summary of the 15th episode of the 1st season of criminal minds. The only thing I got from it was maybe the fact that the note in the episode was left in d.c. This could target paleonaps agan, as he guessed that for his guess at the beginning of the game. It also couldve been anyone else related to/located in d.c.

This is what I know about the assassin so far.
1.) The assassin is rationally minded and is using the disguise of a psychopath.
2.) The assassin follows traditions. I am not certain whether these traditions were followed because the assassin wanted to follow them or if they were followed to act as a red herring.
3.) The kill clues are solved in a simple manner that is entirely obvious when you look at the solution to the clue.
4.) The assassin is either an experienced member or a member who has read at least part of the posting game archives.
5.) The assassin has a secret plan for targeting victims that may get altered throughout the game.

If you have anything else to contribute about the assassin, please post. In addition, it would not be wise for officers to accuse, for we don't know enough about the assassin to accuse without guessing.

After total killed + incorrect accusations = 15, he wins.

Aight. I protect paleonaps for this reason.

EDIT: If you don't know who to protect, protect officers, particularly me and quiz, because we each have 2 accusations.
