SciOly Assassination 116: And Then There Were None

Post by Assassinator »

“One little Sciolyer left all alone,
He went out and hanged himself and then there were none…”

Dearest Sciolyer,
Do you remember us? If we recall, you spent a few days with us at Wright State University last May, and we seemed to have so much in common.
We have a large guest-house on Scioly Island, a rather large place just off the coast. I would be quite happy to have you as a guest — absolutely free — at our house for the holidays. Would early October suit you?

Sincerely,
Mr. and Mrs. Owen


This game follows standard Assassination rules, with a few modifications:
1. There are two of us. We may or may not be one of you.
2. The officers will be the next five people who post in the forum expressing their interest. Put in a bit of thought before posting. If you have not been around for a while, it is less likely that you will be able to identify us.
3. There will be no informants, but civilians may post.
4. Clues will be posted every round that point at the identity of the target, and/or the our identities.
5. Each clue will last at least 48 hours unless explicitly said otherwise, after which the next little Sciolyer will be taken.
6. People will die. However, there are some exceptions. Moderators and admins will not be targeted. In exchange, it is requested that they do not reveal our identities.
7. Officers may either protect one person per clue or make an accusation as to our identities, but not both.
8. Once an officer has run out of accusations to use, he may not accuse or protect anyone, and the next aspiring officer who can post a correct answer to the clue can be permitted take the vacant spot. There is a limit of three such replacements.
9. When accusing someone of being Assassinator you must use the following template: "I accuse (place name here) because (give reason here)." If you don't use this template when accusing the accusation won't count.
10. If we do not reply in 7 days after all protects are made, each officer gets a free accusation. However, that accusation must be made next time the user posts and cannot be stored as an extra one to use later.
11. Once "killed," a user may not post about the identity of the assassinator.
12. Each officer begins with one accusation. You will earn an accusation with each correct protection.
13. We win if we kill ten users before you figure out who you are. The officers win if our identities are both revealed.
14. We may or may not posts hints to our identities on our true accounts
15. If we see fit, we may decide to add rules during the game.

Hello, my name is Panda Weasley and I would like to audition for the part of officer. I love this play (yes, I know it was a book first), but I have no time. Maybe I'll be able to help with the occasional clue. Good luck officers!

I'm not on every day, but I do get on at least once a week... If you get desperate for an officer you guys can get me, but if there is anyone else that wants to be an officer more than me, then they can do it. (BTW, I have never been an officer, so if I do become one, sorry for any mistakes I make).
