Couldn't an admin just reveal who the sassy is? (I guess it would make the game silly, but whatever :D )
Hahahaha no. :P

Kinda ruins the point of the game, much less fun to watch.

Based on the ID clue, I'd say accuse luo (avatar) or harryk (signature).

Perhaps clarification is needed.
I went to PacificGoldenPlover and punched him in the nose, afterwards leaving a note sealed in a blood-proof envelope on his forehead.

Well, if you feed it through a cryptogram solver, you get "the place of many waters".

All I can think of is Minnesota, what with its 10,000+ lakes. >.>

Edit: You get loads of other stuff too, which is all somewhat similar, and it could still be a keyed cipher that just happens to spit out this when put into a cryptogram solver.

Edit: "The Place of Many Waters" happens to be the Native American name for present-day Walla Walla, WA.

The Device: a prototype, never before tested. Why not first run some biological tests on plant matter, mice, or even monkeys? Because that wouldn't be as fun.

There stands my target, unaware of the world records she is about to set. I carefully aim at the ceiling above her head and pull a trigger, then quickly aim at her feet and pull the other. Down and down she falls, unceasing in her descent. I leave to find a restaurant and eat dinner. After darkness has risen, I walk to the square, aim the device at the courthouse, and fire. Out comes Kokonilly, startled by the change in scenery, her voice long given out, making contact with the ground at somewhere near terminal velocity. I leave.

The clue referenced Queensland, Australia, where the Kokominjena and the Kokoberra people live. Searching "The place of many waters" leads you directly to their language and Kowanyama, a town populated by them.
The next clue:

Night. The air is fresh, cool. Not a cloud to be seen, no wind to be felt.
Stars above, white, twinkling, slowly moving across the sky, radiating great energy. Placed so motionless, unwavering, yet the grandest is unseen.
I turn back and walk inside. My target does not lie there, out of my reach, but instead so close that if I took three steps, three great bounds, I could rip out his organs and donate them to a self esteem fund.
I wonder, what is his blood type?
