"Blessed are you when people insult you and persecute you, and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of Me. Rejoice and be glad, for your reward in heaven is great; for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you." Matthew 5:11-12

I have no regrets.

That user hasn't been active for a long time, so it's unlikely that the sassy would target them.

I protect myself because "mo" is changed to a different size, I'm from MO, and I don't want to die (again :)).

I still think winneratlife is a good protect, so I will protect them for now because their name was mentioned in the clue.

The (HI) is the abbreviation for Hawaii — is anyone on the forums from Iolani?

As for the numbers — 2, 5, and 87 — I’m kind of at a loss. They’re all prime if that makes a difference. Tailsfan101 might be worth protecting because they have a prime number in their name, but that alone isn’t much evidence.

Could refer to windu getting second in eletric vehicle in 2017, but not being able to get first?

I looked up the number 2587 and turned up this article about a molecule called galanin: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/gene/2587

So I change my protection to Galahad because of galanin and because of the reference to Hawaii.

Although the word snag still confuses me. I feel like it’s part of the clue but I don’t know how it relates.

Pretty sure it's Galahad. HIS stands for Highlands Intermediate Schcool, which is where Galahad is from.

Yeah Galahad definitely makes the most sense.
I protect windu34 because the winning part could refer to him getting second in eletric vehicle
