Scioly Assassination 99: The Event

Post by Assassinator »

As I walk down the streets of Sciolyville, I listen to the talk around me. Again and again, I hear of the much awaited Scioly Assassination 100. The more I hear, the more annoyed I get. Why wait for the 100th game? No, no, it is THIS game, the 99th game, which you will all remember.

The next day, at the January Sciolyville town meeting, a voice comes on over the town hall's loudspeaker:
Do not be so quick to overlook the 99th game. THIS game will be the Event to remember. You will all come to rue the day which you overlooked Assassinator 99!

RULES:
1. Officers will be the first five to send me the answer to the clue. All others who send the answer will be substitute officers when necessary.
2. Civilians may help.
3. I will not attempt to kill Administrators or Moderators. In return, I ask they not reveal my identity.
4. Once an officer has mad three incorrect accusations, he is stripped of his position.
5. Officers must only protect one person per clue. When protecting, say, "I protect (full username) because (reason)." Officers must make at least one protection per every two unsolved clues. If you feel you may miss two clues, contact me for a temporary or permanent substitution.
6. I will provide clues to my next victim, and, on occasion, to myself.
7. All officers are given an accusation to begin with. They may recieve more if I do not post within one week, or if they protect correctly.
8. When accusing, say, "I accuse (full username), because (reason). If you accuse correctly, you have the privilege of choosing my successor.
9. If you are dead, you may NOT in any way, aid the officers.
10. Clues last two days, after which I shall attempt to kill.
11. I win after 15 kills, but that number goes down after each incorrect accusation.
12. I may change the rules when I deem necessary.

As for your clue:

It deals with
Nine
Seven
Three
But mainly, one.

This rule, copied from the last game (and who knows where before that...), still bugs me for those three reasons.
By the way, good luck officers!

It seems that the entry clue may be somewhat too difficult, so here is a hint (or two):
Think literature.

And in this case it is quite ok to think in circles.

I think that I am going to be a civilian on this one too because I have NO idea what the clue even remotely relates to.
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.

Interesting clue. I'll look into it after dinner.
Is this clue pointing to a person, place, etc.???
