Okay, so once again, you give us a dynamic clue, with no telling whether or not we would finish the game to spell out the entire clue?
/me goes grab spotting scope.

I think the problem was no one protect and over 50% of the clues were directed at officers, the sassy should only be able to win after a prolonged game were many civilians are killed like in 55

I'm not the first one to do it. And with even part of the clue you should be able to solve that. How many other users have rock or rocket at the start of their names?

One correction to my solutions. The anagram actually read foreverphysics is the target.

@harryk: thank you for all your feedback. I would like to remind you that I have been around since the beginning of the assassination games. I'm sorry my clues don't fit within the norm of the current game and that you disagree with most of my actions. However, I played when the game was young and when the precedents were being created. There are official and unofficial rules that are in place because of my actions as assassinator in the past, and I'm sure the rules will continue to change in the future. The only issue is, the assassinator sets the rules, and the officers agree to play on the assassinator's terms. Complaining about clues and the assassinator's actions during the game will get you nowhere, as you don't know who the assassinator is til the end, so they are hard to control during the game.

@foreverphysics: that clue was bogus. Robot was just messing with you.

@Zyzzyva98: in the beginning the game was only partially about winning. Mostly I just wanted to bring the game back to its roots and remind people what it used to be like. By the end I was just trying to end the game. Looking back I probably should have explained my reasoning during the game, but being the assassinator is tough, and you don't always think about everything.

The Identity Clue: The identity clue is in all of my posts past the second clue I gave. The beginning letter of the second paragraph of each of those posts spells out my username. I don't see the point of labeling an identity clue, that makes things too easy. Also quite a few of the clues were based on things I am interested in, so those also should have targeted me.
Way to pull a siegelord (man I miss that guy), but second paragraph is quite hard to get.

I did the second paragraph because that was where I was describing each kill. And it is harder to get, but I did have higher hopes of the officers in everything.

Not necessarily at the start of the name, but anyone active on bottle ROCKETs forum or someone whose signature has something to do with bottle ROCKETS, or someone active on ROCKS and minerals. Also, I think Andrewsski's avatar is of a space shuttle.

I believe you added an extra 'O' in your clue (resulting in "ROOCKET"), so that might have messed someone up if they thought of it.

He almost finished spelling "man" after "rocket", so that would have helped clear up the ambiguity provided someone had noticed it.
