SciOly Assassination 113: Friday the 13th

Post by Assassinator »

Greetings, fellow SciOlyians. For the 113th game of Assassination, accordingly so, all the deaths in this game will be on Friday the 13th (theoretically, not literally). And many poor souls here are about to meet their unlucky, untimely ends. How they will meet their ends will remain a mystery to you, but they will be gruesome ones. Your own luck may or may not be in your favor, but those whose luck is about take a wrong turn are dependent on some brave souls to help save them from the doom they are about to face.

The rules are as follows: (changes will be in italics)
1. 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 me.
2. There will be no "informants", but civilians may post.
3. People will die. However, there are some exceptions. I will not kill administrators or moderators. In return, I ask that they not reveal my identity.
4. Officers may protect one person per clue.
5. 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.
6. I will provide clues which plainly point to my next victim, and occasionally to myself.
7. I may or may not continue to post with my true account, and may provide hints there.
8. 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. In addition to being used for accusations, this format MUST also be used for protections or those will not count, even if the protection is cast on the correct user.
9. Once "killed," a user may not post about the identity of the assassinator. Absolutely no ghosts at all, or I might consider killing you twice.
10. Non officers may post.
11. Each clue will last 48 hours unless explicitly said otherwise, after which I will make my kill.
12. If I 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.
13. Each officer begins with one accusation. You will earn an accusation with each correct protection.
14. I win after 15 incorrect accusations have been made, but the number needed to win goes down by one with each kill, or I win if I kill all the officers before you figure out who I am. The officers win if you correctly identify me before this happens.
15. You may only accuse OR protect per round. You will not be allowed to do both on the same round. So think carefully.
16. If I see it fit, I might decide to add rules during the game.

EDIT: The clarification and addition to Rule #5 expressed in one of my posts on 6/20/16:

Officer spots that become vacant by me killing current officers during the game may also be replaced by an aspiring officer, also at the price of correctly solving a clue.

But accordingly for this rule change, I will limit the amount of times that officers can be switched, replaced, or replenished - call it whatever you want - during the game. I will only allow officer changes to occur 3 times for this entire game, and they will not be official unless confirmed by me in a post. Any changes in officers can count against your allotted 3 times - you do not get 3 times per type of change (i.e. 3 changes for guessing out, 3 changes for being killed by me, 3 changes for quitting, etc).

This will be a fun one! Btw, not interested in being an officer. I will still help with kill clues, however.

I hope you're ready.

My first target deems himself a member of a very old, in fact, medieval secret society based upon brotherhood and philanthropy. He likes his personal space, but he does make an exception for his beautiful wife, who has striking, fiery eyes that leave him utterly helpless.

You have 48 hours.
