[hippo9]

Can I change mine?

Whatever, I accuse starstudent because she does meteo.(I really hope starstudent is a she)

[jimmy-bond]

Yes, she is a she

[Things2do]

So...
You guys didn't protect the right person and really didn't go further with some of the hints I gave you... so now Tailsfan101 is dead... and the Sassy has won... well not yet.
I'm going to give all officers that are alive an accusation which must be used before 1 PM EST. Good luck!

Is tht a red herring, or is the Sassy somewhere in

[dxu46]

I accuse kate! because she is planning to do meteo and lives in EST.

[kate!]

I accuse kate! because she is planning to do meteo and lives in EST.

Oof. I wish I was the sassy.

[Assassinator]

Sadly, no one correctly accused.
After the Sassy's mission had succeeded, the Sassy slid out of their hotel and quietly drove home with an evil laugh on the way back...
eddpmett has won.

I will post the answers to all clues ASAP through my normal account. I am still in the process of picking the next sassy.
Thanks for a decent enough game, though I was a bad sassy. I hope it was enjoyable enough for everyone. GO BEST OFFICER SOY SAUCE!!!!!

I found the next sassy, and I will be posting the first batch of clues tomorrow.

DUDE. THAT WAS SUCH A CURVEBALL. CONGRATS ON A GAME WELL RUN! YOU WERE AN AMAZING SASSY AND I AM IN SHOCK AT HOW WELL YOU COULD KEEP THIS UP. WOOOOOOOO GO METT!

[EastStroudsburg13]

I'm just shocked nobody decided to make a list of users that are regulars on IRC...

[eddpmett]

Here you go.. the first batch of clues!

Overall Points
-A bad sassy is typing this all up
-Anomaly likes trolling... even if you don't tell her to
-I agree with following John's style quite a bit, but with dialogue, it makes it easier to throw in random (unnecessary) info, and throw in things related to the theme
From the IRC
-Tailsfan101: A beginner would not last this long *cough* 119 *cough*
(just had to include this)
-hippo9: also, the lack of ID clues is infuriating
There was a ton of bad ID but the decent enough ID no one really thought about until the last few clues (ex: the IRC one).

Entry Clue

Here is the clue: (Click to Show Hidden Text)

Front Desk Clerk: “Hello there! Are you here to book a stay at this Disney Resort?”
Assassinator: “Yes, I am.”
Front Desk Clerk: “Any preferences for type of room?”
Assassinator: “Yes, I would like room 104.”
Front Desk Clerk: “Swipe here and here is your room key!  Have a nice stay!”
Assassinator: “Wait, are there any good ice cream places at Epcot?”
Front Desk Clerk: “Yes! There is a great homemade ice cream shop just by the Eiffel Tower.  If you have difficulties finding it, you can ask any of the Disney Staff or look for a small stand that sells canteens of soda!  I mean that’s not really a good way to spend your money because there is a whole lot of stuff to do at Disney.”
Assassinator: “Are there any rides you specifically recommend?”
Front Desk Clerk: “Yes!  My favorite one is for sure ‘Fighting Mummies’ or ‘Nano-Bots’.  They’re both new and my absolute favorites!”
Assassinator: “Thank you very much!”
Front Desk Clerk: “Enjoy your stay!”

The answer to the clue was Phineas and Ferb.
Clue Points:
All refer to the Phineas and Ferb theme song (some extended/from the album)
- “104” is referring to “104 days of summer vacation”
-Eiffel Tower is referring to “climbing up the Eiffel Tower”
-“Canteens of soda” refers to “canteen of soda”
-“A whole lot of stuff to do” also refers to the theme song “there’s a whole lot of stuff to do before school starts this fall”
-“Fighting Mummies” is also in the theme song “fighting a mummy”
-“Nano-Bots” is also in the theme song

Clue #1

Here is the clue: (Click to Show Hidden Text)

Target: UTF/Hello

hippo9 wakes up in his room.  When he walks over to the door, he finds a note in messy handwriting that says:
“t0ZH8G7v5GQ”
He then turns over the note and reads: “fun, until time.”

Clue Points:
-When you search up “t0ZH8G7v5GQ”, the first link that pops up is a Disney piano collection, which refers to UTF because he plays piano
-The last three digits of the timestamp are “2:28”, which was the day of UTF’s regional competition
-The first letter of every word in "fun, until time" is an anagram for UTF
-To everyone who listened through the whole thing, I'm sorry about that. At least it was good study music (and I did listen through the whole thing later after feeling bad about everyone else listening to it)

Clue #2

Here is the clue: (Click to Show Hidden Text)

Target: TCS

Mun River, Jan 7th 2018
Land Scout 1 (Tailsfan101): “This looks like a good plot of land, let’s go send some pictures to Disney so they can approve building here.”
Land Scout 2 (PM2017): “Hey, Tailsfan!  Did you see that spam email last night?”
Land Scout 3 (linzhiyan): “OH YEAH, I saw that. I didn’t get what it meant…”
Land Scout 1 (Tailsfan101): “I didn’t see it.  What did it say?”
Land Scout 2 (PM2017): “This…”
PM2017 shows Tailsfan the email:

jqbaqjylu, sesao, secfqiiyedqju.

48 hours.

Clue Points:
-If you search up Mun River and go to the Wikipedia link, toward the bottom there is a photo. If you look at the photo, one of the waterways is labeled as “Chi” hinting toward TCS.
-January 7th, 2018 is the release date of a show named “The Chi”, once again hinting toward TCS.
-The purpose for three land scouts is because “TCS” is three letters
-A Caesar Cipher was used for what was written as “jqbaqjylu, sesao, secfqiiyedqju.”
-When you decrypt the message you get: “Talkative, Cocky, Compassionate” which was TheChiScientists description of the previous sassy.
-The shift of the message is 16 which is TCS age on his profile

Clue #3

Here is the clue: (Click to Show Hidden Text)

Target: PM2017

hippo9, kate!, and yxu08 talked on messages about UTF’s death, and how the movie “Solo: A Star Wars Story” went.  
yxu08: “I would rate Solo four stars because of the great explosions and action.  TheChiScientist was over the rainbow while watching it though, didn’t seem to like it. He’s such a daydreamer.”
While talking, hippo9 mentions typing up 43 pages of notes.
“Plus the notes were just jotting ideas down! I went through a lot of my textbook.  OH WAIT! Yesterday I got this strange email...”
hippo9 shows the new message sent to him from an anonymous email:

Ahhhh… I see that you have prevented one death, but that is only one… 
Your so called “analysis” on the document might’ve been correct but what about this time?  Soon, you’ll be falling into a trap. Sí? 
Εκείνη την εποχή, αποφάσισε ότι η αίτηση για επείγουσα tcc ήταν μια μεγάλη ιδέα. 

48 hours (quick note: the next clue might be posted earlier/much later depending on if I have time to post or not)

Clue Points:
-The Greek is what I translated from one of PM2017s posts into Greek. Didn’t pick Greek for any particular reason.
-“So called” refers to so cal, where PM2017 is from
-“Trap” refers to mousetrap vehicle, which is one of PM2017s events
-“Si” is pronounced like “c” which is PM2017s division

Clue #4

Here is the clue: (Click to Show Hidden Text)

Targets: TCS and dxu

While hippo9 was relaxing in his resort room, he was calmly writing on a piece of paper “b b b c d d d d g g g g e e e f# g g g g…”.  Suddenly, in the middle of his last letter, someone knocked on his door.
“HEY IT’S TAILSFAN AND KATE! OPEN UP”
hippo9 opens the door.
“WE ARE GOING TO GO INTO THE PARK AND EAT FOOD,” Tailsfan said.  “WANNA COME?”
“Sure!” replied hippo9.
Later…
“So what do you want to eat?” asked kate!.
“I’m going to go get a turkey leg, meet back here in 10?” Tailsfan said.
“Sure!” hippo9 and kate! answered.

While Tailsfan went to get a turkey leg, kate! and hippo9 got dole whips and iced tea.  Ten minutes later they met up again.
“Hey how much should I eat in my first bite of this turkey leg?” Tailsfan asked.
“A mouthful!” kate! replied.
“Double that!” hippo9 added.
Tailsfan ate a mouthful of the turkey leg, but while chewing he started coughing and almost choked.
“Tailsfan are you okay?” hippo9 concerningly asked.
“Are you okay? Why’d you eat so much at once?” kate! said
“Yeah I’m okay.  I ate that much because you said a mouthful!” Tailsfan replied.
“At least you’re okay!  Hey is that a cheese sign next to the coin exchange machine?” hippo9 said.
“Yeah that’s a cheese sign!” Tailsfan answered.
“What does the cheese sign say?” asked kate!.
“The cheese sign says.. actually it doesn’t have anything written on it, but a photo of a rainbow” hippo9 said.

48 hours.
(Sorry for the very late post)

Clue Points:
-What hippo9 is writing is an ID clue. The letters represent the note, and every time it is written it represents an eighth note. The song it is “spelling” out is the Concerto in G Major Movement I by Telemann, which is a viola concerto. I play the viola ))
-Whole first paragraph after is just so I can include the clues later
-After doing research, dxu has Pokemon as one of his interests. One of the episodes for Pokemon is “You Said a Mouthful!”, which I included with Tailsfan asking how much to eat and why he ate that much
-The use of double that is to show it’s a double target
-The cheese sign says is a clue that leads to TCS. Most of the dialogue above is so that someone can say the exact line of “the cheese sign says” which if you say multiple times fast, it will end up sounding like “TheChiScientist” (try it!)
-Coin refers to coin collecting which TCS likes to do
-Rainbow refers to over the rainbow which is where dxu is located (according to his profile)

Clue #5

Here is the clue: (Click to Show Hidden Text)

Target: Name

Later… dxu46 finds a note written on his Disney Resort Notepad...
Main_Page

He also finds a printed out picture of...
[img]http://www.nationalacademies.org/site_assets/groups/nasite/documents/webgraphics/na_178437.gif[/img]

Clue Points:
-The clue was not supposed to be that the first letter of every word would spell out "NAMES"
-Search up Main_Page, you will find the main page of wikipedia which is what Name has linked on their profile
-You will also notice that the link that pops up first is missing an “m” compared to Name’s link on their profile
-That missing “M” is needed with “the national academy of engineering” (you can get that from the photo) which you would get NAE and with that missing “M”, you get “NAME”

Clue #6

Here is the clue: (Click to Show Hidden Text)

Targets: PM2017, hippo9
BRR...
That ice bin storing the Mickey’s Premium Ice Cream Baris cold.  I’ll have to do some more research on that.
AAR..
The sounds of the pirates on the Pirates of the Caribbean ride at Disney.  
TWO interesting things from Disney.

Clue Points:
-Brr just stands for “Battery Buggy, Road Scholar, Roller Coaster” which are the events that hippo does
-Research is in hippo’s sig
-Aar stands for "aerospace, astronomy, robotics" which are PM2017’s interests
-Interesting is referring to interests

Clue #7

Here is the clue: (Click to Show Hidden Text)

Target: MattChina

kate!, venules, and Alex-RCHS were walking along Main Street in the Disney parks.
“These streets will make you feel brand new,” kate! said.
“That’s an interesting statement kate!,” replied venules.
Suddenly, Alex-RCHS tackled venules.
“Alex-RCHS!  What happened! It’s like you’re acting like a baby,” replied venules after getting up.
“Yeah!” added kate!, “it’s like you’re zero or something.”
“Just practicing my tackle,” Alex-RCHS replied.
“Go practice that on the other side of the world,” venules said.  “Or learn about them in physics class instead.”

48 hours.
If you can’t solve this easy clue… then you’re done for the clue next week.

Clue Points:
-These streets will make you feel brand new is a lyric from “Empire State of Mind” which is a song that refers to New York. New York is where the target is from
-Zero is the age of MattChina
-Other side of the world is referring to China

I will try to get the other half of clues out before tomorrow. If you have any questions, PM me or ask right in this thread.
Clearly, there's barely any ID in this half, but there was another ID that was pretty bad that I just didn't type up here...
Anyway, thanks for reading!
