<EASTstroudsburg13> I don't know why, but I just can't bring myself to delete this post.
On a not so random hunch, I accuse IdahoSciGuy of being the assassinator. This is not a guess, but more of a proven fact. I have known about it for a while, and in fact it was trajectoryrox's loose lips that let the cat out of the bag. In a game of Guess the Assassinator, the rule was that the host WOULD lie on the correct guess. After a 4 wrong guesses, I asked about IdahoSciGuy, to which traj told me it was someone NEW. Why would this be revealed to me? Only if it was a lie, and it would only be a lie if I guessed right.
Before anyone says anything, one of the terms of me accusing him was that I would do so on his terms. He asked me to accuse, and, as he puts it, "end his pain"
Yes, I can confirm everything brobo said. Traj. did in fact give away my identity right after I published the first clue, and I just have not been able to make good clues knowing my identity is out there. So, heres the explanations.
The rules at the beginning of the game were a ploy. I liked starpug's idea so much, that i manipulated the rules to the point where most would think that the assassinator was a newbie/inexperienced. Needless to say, it worked exactly as planned. As i was on chat, it became immediately apparent that if i could pull this off, My real identity could stay on the down low for a while, and I could get a kill in.
Then Trajectory let it slip on chat, and suddenly the game got a lot less serious for me. I made up my clues in a matter of minutes, often when responding to a correct protect.
Clue 1 was just what you guys thought: Whatever name was not there, that was the victim.
Clue 2 was also a really easy on, with the numbers pointing to the star Procyon, in Canis Minor.
Clue 3 is pretty self explanitory. Putting those two pictures together gets my favorite video game character EVAR. Frogzorz was my target.
Clue 4 was one that i was proud of. You all thought it pointed to science olympiad regionals or invitationals, or even events. The reality is that it pointed to the NAQT National High School Tournament, a quizbowl tournament. Googling the schools together would reveal this.
Clue 5 Is a vague clue that i just came up with on a whim. Tiffany is pointing to the one-hit wonder artist of the 80s, and she was in a movie called Mega Piranha. The same production company that did that movie also released the movie "Sharktopus". Robodude was the intended target.
No for the final comment. In a way, i dont look on this game as being too horrible, and if anything this should provide a nice transition into new games using Starpug's idea. I really think starpug's mob rule idea is a new age for these games, and because of this, I am letting Starpug pick the next assassinator that will implement the new rules. Starpug, PM me when you can.
Actually, if you don't mind, it's just the doctor. - Doctor Who.
I can confirm that I wish starpug to pick the next assassinator. He will colaborate with him/her to impliment the Mob idea.
Because of this, I will in fact be eligible to play, since I have no hand in picking the next assassinator.

Well, brobo is actually the one who told me he wanted Starpug to pick the assassinator for the next round. It wasn't my idea. And yeah, i know this was a bad round, you really don't need to tell me.

It was in no way a bad round on your part. I completely understand how the quality takes a free fall as soon as you know someone else knows. And you have had a good round in the past, so it's not like we haven't seen that you're a perfectly good Assassinator.
