Why thank you Dxu.
Also is it possible that someone can make a document to keep all important info organized?
(I don't want to have to read 43 pages of content when I only need 2 )

Another document? I don't think the last one worked so great, but sure I'll make one. Just saying that I won't be able to edit it much, so I'll give you all editing privileges. But don't abuse it.

Can we not make a document? It makes things hard (at least for me) and last time it was completely useless.
Also we don't need 43 pages if only people don't spam with unnecessary comments that are completely useless to solving the clue.

I second this.

In the rules, it said that Sassy can target two people at once. Maybe this is targeting venules and TheChiScientist/John Richardsim/someone else?

I googled Mun River, which is a river in Thailand. It's also called Moon River, which refers to... a lot of different things. One of the results is a song performed by Audrey Hepburn and written by Johnny Mercer, who is from Georgia. Here are the lyrics, if anyone can discern a connection.

It says "dream" and seems to refer to wandering a lot. That could refer to daydreamer... but that would be quite a stretch I think.

Welp, messed that up...that might be why the clue is "easier" (one can still mess up...). Also, yes, no need to panic over ID clues or react to everything. The doc isn't necessarily a bad idea, but it's just as easy to keep focused, jot ideas down, look into them, and post afterwards which ones worked or not.

It's best to work through obvious hints first, and I found some (not too helpful) ideas...We do have five protects. I first checked forum posts with the date, didn't find anything. I also thought maybe "Mun" = model UN. I now know pb5754[] participated...but nothing else supplements that, could be coincidence. Another idea was with "land scouting" (https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Walt_Disn ... nstruction - it was famously built on swampland, there's backstory), which vaguely relates to Herp but easily can be mistaken since it seems mostly there for the story.

The most obvious thing for now: I protect venules based on the date given (at least it's concrete evidence).

Probably unrelated, but Melissa Benoist (previously on Glee) sang it on the show Supergirl. I don't think anyone here has any connections to superhero stuff, though...?

This seems promising, maybe someone who does Road Scholar or Remote Sensing ("Walt Disney flew over a potential site")?
Edit: I protect dxu46 because he does Road Scholar and because of the Mississippi River interpretation.

That doesn't count as an official protect right? Also, this has nothing to do with this, but how did the first clue lead to UTF?
