- The weirdly capitalized letters/ not capitalized but should be are, IWEDJGYAFBIIMMIA. Idk what they mean
- I don't like how I'm one of the main characters in this clue, but that's what I get for being an officer. If we don't come up with anything else, another officer should protect me.

Sig: CPScienceDude again. Although now I think the sigs have some other meaning.
im thinking that the sigs represent the chapter number the quote is from, which probably encode to letters(a=1,b=2,etc) which spell out the sassy's name.
does anyone know what the 1st sig was?

Edit:decoding "IWEDJGYAFBIIMMIA" as a vigenere with key "morales" gives "windy" followed by junk

The first sig was from chapter 15. Windy could refer to the windy city, which is chicago That could also be referring to TCS. I suggest a protect of TCS.

decoding "IWEDJGAFM"(just the capital letters) using key "morales" gives "windycity"
I protect TCS because of the reasoning above

The first sig was “We had a week of peace together. After that, little, it seemed. A nightmare was upon us.” This is from Chapter 15 like TCC said. The 15th letter from this sig is E, if that's anything.
The new sig is "Looks like all of Maycomb was out tonight, in one way or another." from Chapter 8. The 8th letter of this sig is K.
Not sure if that's the correct way of looking at the sigs, but I'll keep thinking of a way to look at these.

It's missing a '2'.
Proper grammar would be
TheCrazyChemist, amk578, and JoeyC walk back to TheCrazyChemist’s room to work on the task at hand.
Using the conventions applied here, it's
TheCrazyChemist, amk578, and JoeyC walk back 2 TheCrazyChemist’s room 2 work on the task at hand.
Maybe just a typo?

Probably a typo, I feel like these clues are riddled with grammar mistakes anyways ( no offense sassy). Plus the windy city thing pretty obviously points to TCS.

Looking through the posts, I don’t really see many grammar/spelling mistakes, unless it’s purposeful. Also, this clue has a high emphasis on 2. I don’t really think this is important, though.
happy new season!

The 2s aren't consistent at all, which is interesting.
