Scioly Assassination 86: The Labyrinth City

[foreverphysics]

Going on the sassy's hint, it seems pretty obvious that he wants us to look up. So there are three things I can think of for this:
1) This literally means look up into the sky, in which case it would point to AlphaTauri or Pleiades. Pleiades should be possible because the sassy looks to be a relatively old member and so was probably here when Pleiades was still active.
2) This has something to do with Ornithology (ducks and look up), which would point to either tuftedtitmouse12 or amerikestrel.
3) He wants us to look up a few posts--five, by the look of it, which would point to 5asdffdsa5. Now, normally I would protect, but 5asdffdsa5 has already been protected--and the sassy said that the protect was wrong.

I don't have any other ideas at present moment, but I'm going to protect in an hour or so to see if anything else comes up.

It might point to me, or zzyzzva again, as we were the people in the storyline just above the clue. I really don't know. Its going to be interesting to see what aparently obvious detail we've all been missing, though.

[foreverphysics]

Argh. I'm going to protect now.
I protect amerikestrel because of his connection to Ornithology, and also because he has been a power player in the past.

i protect PacificGoldenPlover
because of the reference to ornithology

[silverheart7]

No, its 10 AM on the east coast

My bad. Stupid google searches...

[Mr Sarcastic]

I believe the target is PacificGoldenPlover because of the reference to ducks, which are birds, and so is a Pacific Golden Plover. The last clue also says look up five times. Five posts above the sassy's is a post that belongs to PacificGoldenPlover.

[PacificGoldenPlover]

Nice job, that does appear to be pointing to me.

[haverstall]

Well, in that case, I protect myself, since you duck for cover when a Creeper explodes.

[Luo]

Well, in that case, I protect PacificGoldenPlover.

Plover was already protected about 4 posts earlier.

Hah, I read through the rules and burst out laughing at rule number 4:

4. Officers may die, but an officer may protect another officer. Protections are required to use the following template, "I protect <FULL username> because..." Reasons are not required to be reasonable. You are allowed to BS your protections.

And I also think that could be a hint to identity. Who here uses the word "BS"?

[Assassinator]

You absolute fools! Even after that incredebly large hint you have not been able to solve the clue! Idiots!

He is running. He can hear the hissing behind him as creatures erupts from the walls of the labyrinth. Suddenly he meets a dead end. Terrified he skids to a stop and turns around as the pack of creatures close in on him. His screams resound threw the air long after he has been ripped apart from limb to limb.
twototwenty is dead.

As he dies the other four officers are standing in a small clearing. Sudenly a bomb blows up in the middle of them. They are shot up in the air and pieces of them fly everywhere. A while later the other citizens of Sciolyville find all the pieces and send them to a hospitle. Two weeks later the pieces are put back together in a rough sketch of a human. All the officers are heavily injured and barely able to walk. And what is more Frogger4097 have lost an acusation. Tsk tsk. I did warn you.

The officers are now much more cautouius as they “stroll” the streets. To tease them I drop the next clue in a small bomb. It explodes in front of them and they all scamper backwards like scared little rabits. haverstall is clinging to Frogger4907 pathetically and wimpering “Mommy! Mommy!” over and over again. Finally 5asdffdsa5 stops being a coward and step forward to look at the clue.

If you fail this one I will be very angry at you.

The answer to the clue is simple-if you looked up my posts and counted five posts up from the post where I posted the clue you would have found the officer notes. twototwenty’s note had the words “death sentence” in them clealry pointing to him. After that huge hint with the words “look up” five times I would have thouht you would be able to solve it. Clearly I was wrong. So this new clue is now idiotecally simple.

Clue expires at 7 am May 6th.

[PacificGoldenPlover]

So... what did the nursery rhyme have to do with it?

??? Five posts above the clue was a post by 5asdffdas5...

EDIT: nevermind, I get it now...still, sassy, that is not nearly so obvious as you seem to think.

Boy, this current clue seems a lot like this one from last game:

[foreverphysics]

Okay...let me do the obvious.
I protect Oldspice because of, well, the words Old Spice.

But also, this sassy seems to have a skewed sense of "easy", so I doubt this is the answer. However, just in case it is, I have protected OldSpice and now we can get on with other leads.

Old Spice: (courtesy of Wikipedia) A leading brand of male grooming products.
Uhh...who here is associated with male grooming products? I can think of only two people off the top of my head: Oldspice (obviously) and zyzzyva98, because his signature has "Burma Shave" in it, which is technically a grooming product.
