[CLUE INTERPRETATIONS]

Day 1 Start

"...and at its crest lay a large star sapphire."
This is a reference to Stasis Blue. As we all know, sapphires are blue.

"1110, E"
This is a much tougher clue. 1110 translates to 14 in binary. BigTimePimpin is the 14th member to have registered on the site. E is 14 in hexadecimal, and 16 was unimportant.


Night 1 Start

"m6, m10, p8, p11"
This is also incredibly difficult. Think of it this way:
(Ignore the dots, they're just spacers)
_...._...._...._...._....m..._....p...._....m....p
1....2....3....4....5....6....7....8....9...10...11

If you have trouble reading it, look at this:
_ _ _ _ _ m _ p _ m p
If we fill in the blanks...
b i g t i m e p i m p
I think you can get the rest.



Day 2 Start

"...and at its center is a blue diamond,"
Blue. Familiar? I thought so.

"s1, s4, s6"
Ah, the letter-number code again. This time, it reads:
s _ _ s _ s

If we fill it in..
s t a s i s
Ta-da.


There were also several smaller clues, but I'll leave you to find them.

I'm a little angry however you blamed this success on the lack of people with avatars, I mean, with avatars all Ilkay has to do is say "And he SCOUTED for an good path into the home" and that's like automatically me.

There are no potential clues now that there wasn't when you won Alex.


Hmmm... as usual, people automatically assume I'm pissed or angry that I lost. I had a great time, and while I wish I had won since I actually tried to understand the clues, I told both Diana and Luke that it was a REALLY fun game, and that I was happy about it. Atleast when I was mafia, there were some good clues, rather than just one easy stasis hint for your game. The rest of the hints used binary code and word games... I'm not saying it's unfair, but just that there was a difference.

Have you read the SEN Mafia games? There are much much more subtle ways of using avatars than that. And then there could be hints using signatures and profiles, but only a select handful of people actually have everything completed. Luke even said that it was hard to work with such little material, and I don't blame him. I'm just saying that I think we should all work on our profiles on the site to ensure a GG for the next round...

LOL I find it really funny that it's only the 2nd game, and sure enough, Ilks has ensured that the hints are tough to solve. Eh, I suppose it makes it more fun though and it just makes us more aware the next time. It's still nice to be able to solve them once in a while though, lol.

I honestly didn't see any clues for me ( :D ) however I guess I wasn't really looking for myself.

I didn't acknowledge your clue speculations about the watch because I couldn't think of a non-suspicious defense to it, so I totally blew it off.
