Re: Scioly Assassination 99: The Event
Since you all clearly need some help, try looking at the numbers like this:
6, 3, 75
46
I will allow a 12 hour extension on this clue.

BWhat do they all have the same of?
AThe Lady died with him but was not born until long after, in 1954.
Correction: A + B + [space] + [Two letters, both uppercase]
If the Lady were real, she would not have died 362 years before she was born.

Re: Scioly Assassination 99: The Event
Ok, I'm not going to get on here and say no one's trying, that's pretty hypocritical for me since I haven't tried much in these games recently, and even when I try with clue it goes no where...
But...
What happened to the fast paced games? Like the ones that went through clues in hours, not days? Why all the extensions, just kill the person and move on... teach everyone a lesson
Also, clue writing, I know it's really hard... but cryptic clues like this are generally no fun, I've noticed that people tend to like the storyline types of clues better, so maybe it's not a matter of people not trying, but people just not wanting to play a sassy game with clues like this... I know I sure don't

thanks and have a nice day

Re: Scioly Assassination 99: The Event
@iwonder-It's not even that. This clue doesn't apparently follow any sort of logic. I look at that and see a bunch of numbers. If there's something I'm supposed to do to them--manipulate, apply an operation, whatever--I'm clueless. I'm guessing they're supposed to make me think of something like the intro clue. The fact that an extension was given means the Sassy realized (or assumed by lack of response) that it was too difficultly written. It's a learning experience.

Re: Scioly Assassination 99: The Event
okay, I wasn't on here all weekend was because I didn't have any internet access and when I did, the site was down/wouldn't let me one/computer malfunction/etc. Sorry about that. And yes, Cedavis6, I'm a guy.
Perfection. That’s what it’s about. It’s those moments. When you can feel the perfection of creation. The beauty of physics, you know, the wonder of mathematics. The elation of action and reaction, and that is the kind of perfection that I want to be connected to.

Re: Scioly Assassination 99: The Event
Having pondered the killer's latest clue for 3 days and 3 nights, the officers, thoroughly stumped, each decide to take a walk to clear their befuddled heads. Makeithappen has always found listening to the movement of water to be quite calming, and thus opts to take a walk by the canal. As he walks along side it, he notices something floating in the water. To his disgust, upon further examination, he sees that it is a body. After radioing in the other officers, he takes a tree branch and flips it over and to his horror realizes:
Chia is dead.
Now, to the officers, this was admittedly a very difficult clue. However, I had hoped that you would be able at least to solve the first part of it. The first three numbers were in fact a date: June 3rd, 1975. This use of numbers has been done before in these games; it wasn't too far out there. If you were to google this date along with 46, you should have easily found that it points to the musical Chicago. Now, from this point it was questionable whether my clue gave enough info to give you the target, but the stutters tied to "ch-ch-chia", who is an Illinois inhabitant and to my knowledge participates in the Chicago area scioly competitions. To take this leap would have been something, so if you had managed to get "Chicago" I was more than ready to give you a better hint.
Also, I realize that the site was down for a period of time yesterday, but I think it is better that we just move on to the next clue. I can see now that this clue was beyond what I should have expected, please forgive me. I was simply testing the waters. Pun intended.
Finally, PrudentGuava, I apologize for the gender confusion.
The next clue will be up shortly along with an ID clue.

Re: Scioly Assassination 99: The Event
Having nothing else to do, fozendog is sitting at his desk, innocently playing solitaire on his computer when all of the sudden, his screen goes blank. Then the following text appears on the top of the screen:
4world.net/tag-
Which one you ask? It should be obvious, but its the one born on June 16th, 1911.
Fozendog leans back in shock, then quickly types "Who is this?" The screen types back:
Let's just say, one isn't part of me.

If you try to go to that website, it turns into http://www.17172.com/. It is a Chinese cartoon site, I think. And the date is the day that various companies joined together to become IBM.
