For the kill clue, I noticed that all of them start with "ya". Taking them out, we get:

This looks like a whole bunch of anagrams. I'm working on uncoding it.

You did too much work. If you switched the order of all the words, it was pig latin :D

So if there are 9 people, no assassins? I believe that in mafia, the rule of thumb is round up?

This is exactly like mafia lol

EDIT: I meant reverse, not switch

I forgot to mention, please direct all accusations with the subject "Assassination Vote"

One question: Is the assassinator randomly chosen?

Yup, definetly pig latin in reverse as winner said.
Also, like previously suspected, there is an obscure rule that says that words beginning with vowels just have "-way" added to them , like if would be ifway, that being said, here is the accurate translation.
for the next clue you must tactfully find the correct cast member from "the man in possessoin of the tawny arm" who was born during the great war.
* Note: arway could be 'ar or 'war' but 'ar' is unlikely
THis most likely refers to an actor from "the man with the golden arm"
EDIT: this points to Frank Sinatra, he was an actor in the movie and was born in 1915, in the middle of WW1

I don't really understand the point to not using the Assassinator account this round Starpug.
