Re: Scioly Assassination 78: Destiny Calls

Post by Assassinator »

It was late, very late. The officers were scrambling to protect. The members of the forum found themselves grouped into the middle of a field. Suddenly, a voice boomed from the clouds. It wasn't saying anything, just screaming. Haverstall was the first to react. He grabbed twotwenty and used his creeper powers to escape. RandomPerson was next. He created a portal and escaped with paleonaps clinging to him. Third was foreverphysics. His reaction saved harryk. Foreverphysics owns a helicopter company. At the exact moment, the voice began screaming, foreverphysics was able to get harryk into one of his helicopters. While he was getting in, harryk grabbed zyzzyva98 who in turn found RandomPerson already gone. He sighed in relief. But in the chaos to get away, foreverphysics was left alone in the field with the other forum members. For some reason, only he could hear the voice. He decided that he was going insane. He committed suicide. None of the other forum members could save him.
Haverstall was close. You were supposed to make the connection to usernames. Take the first letter of all the usernames of the posters of the you tube videos, rearrange them and you get "forever".
Before the voice stopped, it gave the next clue:
814C
hcton
yobknuj
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.

Edit: If I was the assassinator, I would target mingtian or quadratic for the horrendous war crimes they commited in YDRC. Just saying.

Hrmm shame, one of the few (I think only?) officer we protect is also the one that gets targeted, ah well. Good distractor clue (which only makes me think you are tiger even more). Ah well, I'm glad the new rules mean we don't lose three accusations off the bat for an officer.

As for this clue, I think we first need to invert the words
814C -> C418
hcton -> notch
yobknuj -> junkboy
Holy crap! I CAN BE OF USE HERE.

All three are references to Minecraft. C418 is the music creator, notch is the username for Markus Persson who is the main developer, junkboy is the nickname for the art developer.

I believe this clue is targeting that user that always has that diamond square as his avatar, I will edit this post with a protect once I find him/her.
EDIT: What the heck am I thinking, it is of course targeting Harverstall based on his creeper avatar.
Therefore I protect Harverstall.

Well that was fast. Just in case, does anyone else have strong connections to Minecraft?

Not particularly, though Robotman, myself, frogzorz (think I'm spelling that right), and a bunch of us also play it leisurely.

...and now I suspect harverstall as well because of how easy it was... it would be plausible to target himself to take away suspicion.

Keep in mind that anyone who doesn't play minecraft would have no idea how to solve this.

Also keep in mind that anyone could look this info up and use it in a clue despite never playing the game- though it would take some heavy research.

A quick visit to Minecraft.net reveals the Minecraft wiki where all of that information can be found.

Why in the world would the sassy target me in just the second clue? God, I've made about seven or eight posts on Assassination total...
That makes no sense. Shouldn't (s)he target someone with a higher rank and poses more threats?
Also, i am the least suicidal person ever out there...just saying.

Physics is difficult for 99% of the world's population because they don't understand it. The other 1% know too much.
