Yarg, how did you get those?
I used this: http://atlas.mapquest.com/maps/latlong.adp and the first one appears to be in China.....unless I'm doing something wrong

fmtiger, you're not doing anything wrong. This is the important part though: each coordinate points to four locations (i.e. 40 could mean north or south, and then 100 could mean west or east)

I assumed that they were in the the northwest quarter of the globe (+,-) because we are all in the US. Also, most of the coordinates end up in US.

By the way, because of that, I just connected the dots, then reflected it the 4 ways, and got something slightly similar to pug's avatar...It could just be coincidence though.

So Google Earth it is. Anyone want to organize a list of who is the most likely victim based on the clue? winneratlife?

Well, based solely on who's in, I think it would be:

fmtiger124
zyzzyva98
winneratlife
sweetcoop
RandomPerson52
AlphaTauri
pjolala
Avis_de-Incendia
eta150
sisomg11
SOninja

But, factoring who is and isn't in the clue (moving everybody not in the clue to the bottom and adding people where necessary):

zyzzyva98
winneratlife
sweetcoop
starpug
Alphatauri
eta150
EAST
croman74
amerikestrel
EileenofSD
fmtiger124
RandomPerson52
pjolala
Avis_de-Incendia
sisomg11
SOninja

However, this assumes that the clue follows our coordinate interpretation, and that my assumption that the coordinates point to the northwest quarter of the globe.

Also, those of you who have been around longer, if you would like to edit my list, I wouldn't mind.

This is what I might conclude:
eta150, or AlphaTauri, or amerikestrel, or EAST
Can't be me; I don't live anywhere near Philly. Both amerikestrel and EAST live in northern PA (I think), so it's not them either, but it may be eta150 (I believe he goes to BC, which is Philly-area).

Edit: Hmmm...this assassination seems to be space-themed...could the coordinates be RA and declination?

Using Google Earth, I tried to find the most specific city:

40.006576-75.245075 - Merion Station, PA (but very close to Bala Cynwyd, where I know a lot of people on here go)
52.2683964-113.840332 - Red Deer, AB (Canada)
45.0113866-101.2389631 - Eagle Butte, SD
44.5513002-69.6313266 - Waterville, ME
42.6511152-71.3455305 - Lowell, MA
43.802861-91.230412 - La Crosse, WI
40.614101-122.387634 - Redding, CA
43.0047321-83.7158623 - Flint, MI
35.200865-111.654221 - Flagstaff, AZ
37.1594099-104.5023197 - Trinidad, CO
34.7496572-92.2855853 - Little Rock, AR
44.0248171-117.0044032 - Ontario, OR
43.6489175-90.3459811 - Hillsboro, WI
36.4389486-99.4048193 - Woodward, OK
21.3599825-97.6900271 - Tamaulipas, Mexico
34.524734-82.661161 - Anderson, SC
40.8301781-115.7521789 - Elko, NV
43.612339-116.257311 - Boise, ID
38.2329519-97.772826 - Inman, KS
40.485898-106.8374268 - Steamboat Springs, CO
42.9885199-81.2768256 - London, ON (Canada)

I don't think it's me. It's not hard to find Olathe. 5th biggest city, real close to KC. I think others warrant a protect more than I do.

Or maybe it's whoever's location is nowhere near any location on the list? That would prevent having to arbitrarily choose a location...in which case it's probably fmtiger being targeted

Also, because fmtiger is going away for a week, we (the officers) would like to request that an informant (preferably an experienced one, but as long as logical reason is provided, any one is fine) be given officer powers for this week.

If he kept up his information with you then you'd know that there is a good chance that he won't be able to leave because of the grounded flights due to the volcanic gases in the atmosphere above Europe.

Read the pm I just sent you.

Yes Random, he did mention that. If he doesn't go anywhere, then obviously this request is unnecessary.
