The Golden Rule [Concluded]

Vote: Ares, as I think Yoyoma's explanation makes sense with the type of clues ATPG usually leaves.

Also, to YLC, if you die, I don't think you're allowed to post anymore, so you'll have to stay alive if you want to be helpful- not the other way around.

EDIT: By the way, in addition to Yoyoma's analysis:

Isn't Ares the forgery expert? A forgery expert would be good at concealing his own handwriting. Perhaps the fact that it would be difficult to perform a handwriting analysis is a lead to the possibility that there is only one person aboard the ship who can change his handwriting style.

No, I am not, but anything I posted premortem you'll be able to take seriously. But on another note, if you want my help now, don't jump on Ares because of the note - it's just too obvious, and second, notice that it's "Eternal Darkness" not "eternal darkness", thus meaning this is referring to something specific, not just a general idea such as "death". A quick Google gets me this.

The other half of the letter though, I have no clue.

Although I think theres a deeper meaning in that letter, I really don't have the skill to interpret it.

Ill follow the bandwagon on Aries just because his the forgery expert and backwards writing is hard to write.

Vote: Ares

Just wondering why they would leave the message though. It kinda backfires (I know Pizza guy is the one whos doing it but)

I've read through all the posts so far. Still can't find a answer to the riddles and the meaning of the note, I found a passage in the opening thread which pretty much describes what we are dealing with.

Any FBI agent would not simply kill them, he would be waiting for the appropriate moment to contact headquarters, gathering information every night. But if cornered, the FBI agent could use deadly force to defend himself.

Meaning while the FBI agent has the ability to kill, his real objective is to survive till they gain enough information. Also several passages shows that FBI are watching out for the traitor. Suggesting possible traitor resistance.

The traitor waited for the appropriate moment to make his move. If he could survive long enough, he would not be so outnumbered, and he could gun down the others.

I believe the traitor wont get to use his ability until the number of gang gets reduced down to certain numbers. Or maybe he has a percentage of kill success rate and he is not risking to make his move until he has a high percentage. One of the two.

However that doesn't make this game too different from the normal mafia games. Perhaps God (ATPG) has some surprise waiting for us.

Congrats to YLC for actually getting something out of that clue. Only thing I got is a youtube clip of Paul (something... Forgot his name) singing.

Found this book called "The Tome of Eternal Darkness" which appears in the game "Eternal Darkness"

"Fine Line" may mean some line in that book leading to either the FBI agent or the Traitor

Something isn't right here, guys. Why on earth would Pizzaguy leave such an obvious clue to the mafia's identity? While I must give kudos to Yoyoma for the analysis, I must respectfully disagree with the intent. I have a distinct feeling that the "clue" if it is indeed an actual clue and not something to make us chase our own tail around with, is designed to be more in a series of clues, or something to be used in the future. Why are we chasing semi-clues from the host instead of thread behavior? This seems all too easy...

And I pointed it out as well. This is not strong evidence, and it makes me believe the Host did not write this at all, but either the Traitor or the FBI did and they asked ATPG to put it up. It seems crafted to implicate Ares, all the while meaning something else, or I am just following it to far and it was only ever meant to implicate Ares.

this point has been made several times, it was my idea to do role reveals and look where its got me
