Who's The Boss
Game #1921: Mayhem at the Ministry of Magic
This game is moderated by mathisnice. Please read the rules and contact the moderator with any questions or concerns about this game.
This game finished in 8 rounds.
Welcome to Mayhem at the Ministry. This Who's the Boss game will be Harry Potter themed. You don't need to read the books to join.
The "Forum Rules" and the "Who's the Boss" Rules must be followed.* Please read these two sets of rules before you enter the game.
You will randomly be divided into four departments (teams) and invited to talk boxes for them. They are: the Department of Magical Law Enforcement (Six Players), Department for Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures (Six Players), Department of Mysteries (Six Players), and the Minister's Office (Boss and Rat). The Boss will be Minister of Magic and the Rat will be the Senior Undersecretary to the Minister.
Each team will have powers for use in rounds 2, 4, 6, and 8:
Department of Magical Law Enforcement (DMLE) Power Search: Choose one member in a poll. Round's powers revoked from the Minister's Office if Minister or Undersecretary are searched. NO LONGER AVAILIBLE
Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures (DRCMC) Dragon Attack: Choose member. If the member is the Sr. Undersecretary, they will be fired. NO LONGER AVAILABLE
Department of Mysteries (DOM) Time Turner: Temporary talk box created to talk to the fired. The talk box lasts for one round only.
The Office of the Minister of Magic (Minister's Office) Executive Override: Override any power used in the round except for Time Turner. Bosses choice. NO LONGER AVAILABLE
Because the boss is fired, this makes DRCMC's power unavailable. Because the boss can't override the Department of Mysteries power, and there is no point in overriding a power that overrides, that power is gone. This makes the DMLE power disappear, leaving the DOM as the only one.
The boss will NOT have a list of who each power will be used on.
After each round, the fired user's positions will be given.
A trivia question will be given out in rounds 1, 3, and 5. The first player to Private Message me wins a clearing of a player which I will share with their department. The clearing may not be told to anyone outside of the department. If the boss answers the question, they will just be using it up so that no players can get clearings.
You will receive at least one clearly marked clue each round in the Game Discussion. I also might drop some clues, but hide them. An example would be putting them inside of a color code or making them really small. Also, clues that are too easy might look like they point to someone, but maybe not really...
Each department will also get a bonus power to use against the boss in Round 4. To be able to use this power, one member must post in a topic made for it every Voting Round in Rounds 2 and 3.
BONUS POWERS:
Department of Magical Law Enforcement (DMLE) Truth Potion: The boss will answer a bonus psych question for DMLE only to see.
Department for the Regulation and Control of Magical Creatures (DRCMC) Lethifold: Each player picks user. If one of the players is the rat, the lethifold will be sent on them. They will be forced to leave the game unless the spell that gets rid of a lethifold is performed by the boss in a special topic during Rounds 2 and 3. The boss may use research to find out which spell prevents this. NO LONGER AVAILIBLE
Department of Mysteries (DOM) Prophecy: A "prophecy" will be made by the game moderator. If the boss fails to fulfill the prophecy, DOM will receive a bonus clue.
I will not tell you if the power was successful or unsuccessful. The boss may block the power or you may not have chosen correctly.
*There are two exceptions: Outside discussion of the game is allowed, but ONLY in talk boxes created for this game by the moderator. You are also allowed to discuss who you voted for after the round has ended.
IMPORTANT: You may not tell anyone WHO is in your department or WHICH department you are in.

Did you guys check out what I posted yesterday?
I think the boss is crazygurl. If you look at what I posted than you will see plenty of proof.
Please check it out

I do not know what 36timeseach would mean but it is a clue. (Will try and look into it later)
4wheels: I still do NOT see where you are getting all your "proof" from because honestly to me it makes no sense(I don't know what the other people feel) But you may continue to vote for me...I do not care.
Edit:
Answer is in Chinese. Using google translator it says: My favorite animal is the unicorn, I would let it be.

Hey!! let it be is a beatles song!! and GCcrazygurl09's interest is music!! it is a long shot, but it is all i have
im quite confused myself. one boss hint looked to be in ascII and led me to a website with a name and address. Name was jennifer, lives in arkansas.So i thought dainty for living close to ar. then anpther boss hint went to a katie????? either im falling for clue traps or im being taken for a ride????. ill vote gc like i did in the first few rounds due to the list of names.
anyone get the 36timeseach??? A cue from the mod: 36timeseach has never been a user on Braingle.

This round is nearly complete! All bonus power topics are closed and the remaining power will be deleted. To win this game, I recommend you work on the past clues. I will give you only one clue next round in hopes that you dedicate much of your boss-finding energy to past clues!
Another thing to worry about:
A little coded message. Someone needs to Private Message me the answer before the end of Round 5 or an employee of the bosses choice will be fired.
Also, if the boss gets it first, he or she still gets to fire one of you. I'd watch out, he'll probably go for one of you actives! I recommend figuring out the code while your waiting.

oooohhhh
You could not make it easy for us could you?
Just jokeing.
From what you said Crazy was not the boss.
I will look at the clues again and try to refigure it out.
If the boss gets the message than I think I will be a gonner so I am going to work on that first.
