If he's not, maybe someone that helped him start that failed game. I didn't really pay attention to it, and I don't want to go read the failed mafia game's thread, so people that know the history of that better might want to think about it and compare it against who's playing this time. | ||

I guess since a huge percentage of the names in the Day post have to do with Quentin Tarantino movies, it would be wise to check up on any references to him in people's names, posts, or signatures... Or even anagrams of Tarantino etc. But I still think the information that can be used by the town will only come out of the quotes. And yes, I do realize that my name could tie me to Mr. Blue. However, as Shallow[Bay] showed, following the "clue" of the reservoir dogs names fingers tons of people, which is why I think it's a red herring. If the names have any meaning at all, it's a deeper on, such as the tie-in to one director or type of movie. | ||

One other thing before bed. The quote I mentioned previously: "We don't like the way you're running things, it's time for a change" has a similar connotation to MidnightGladius's signature, which reads: It's time to acknowledge the inevitable. Stifle your pride and embrace the glory of change. I still think if that's pointing to anyone, it would be pointing to someone that was involved in the other failed mafia game, but it's a similarity that should be pointed out. | ||

Anyway, the reason I think the quotes I mentioned are probably clues is because they stand out from the rest of the storyline. Perhaps I see this dichotomy because I'm a writer, but the dialogue seems very stilted and unnatural, as if it was inserted into the story, instead of being written in along with everything else. If that's the case, then it was probably put in after a general outline of the day post had been fleshed out. The only thing that would be added at that point are the clues, which is why I feel that the dialogue contains the relevant information. This theory is further supported by the fact that some of the dialogue is double-punctuated (IE: a quote ending with an exclamation, followed by an extraneous period). Perhaps Chuiu and Dapperdan just don't pay much attention to their grammar rules, but the other possible explanation for that is that the sentence was inserted in, and they forgot to delete the extra period. | ||

The only reason I can think of that I would be targetted is that I was onto something with my clue interpretations. Good luck town. | ||
