This game finished in 6 rounds.
Sorry that I did not get a psych question this round - my fault completely!
Last round's winner was HarryPutter!! Woo Hoo!
It's time for game 2 and you are all going on a Scavenger Hunt!!
This will require some time and skill. Everything you need is here on Braingle.
1. Start with this secret code: kj kt mb sn ry
2. You will need a keyword to decipher the clue. The word(s) can be found in one of the quizzes I've created and had published here on Braingle in question #8.
3. Once deciphered, remove the last letter. Search for the username that matches what you've found.
4. When you have the correct user, find his or her published brain teasers. You'll have to find the right one so that you can...
5. Send me a PM with the answer to this question: "Who is guilty?"
If you get stuck, you can PM me for help.
Everyone who submits a correct answer will be declared a winner... but only the first person will be the ultimate round winner eligible for the ultimate prize.
DO NOT DISCUSS THE SCAVENGER HUNT GAME IN THIS GAME... until the round ends, and then you can talk about as much as you like. Violators of this rule will have their posts erased by me and who knows what I'll write in all that lovely blank space...

Wot, no psych question?
...I shouldn't be up this late. I'll vote in the morning.

Assuming people were honest, jayo is definitely cleared.

I'd assume we had enough honest people for Jayo to be clear.
safety on Radio
Adventures happen because you say yes!

Regardless of who was fired, there was one of the biggest majorities I have ever seen in a first round and even if a couple people changed their vote without saying... it was clearly rat proof to clear or hang Jayo. Jayo is clear.
Safety for doomfeathers
Edit - Confirmed vote

I think I will join the vote for doomfeathers. A one word memo when there is no psych question is pretty unheard of....also could indicate a newer/more nervous boss.

I may join that majority, but for now I'll put a safety vote on Tikka
I will now resume lurking silently.

Seems to me that eleven possibilities of boss are left (since Jayo is cleared).
I'm voting doomfeathers.
Nice scavenger hunt by the way .
They were all trying to open the door with strength, authority and intelligence I just watched them push and pull as I tried to decide whether or not to give them the key.

HP- whov stated that it was completely her fault

My vote is on Rolu, just to stay away from majorities.
I think the memo was beyond lame, awful effort.

I think HP just means that when there isn't a psych question a boss would usually still say more than just one word in the memo. Other than being mildly amusing it's not very interesting...I'll get behind the doomfeathers vote this round

Whoops, forgot to vote. Sorry.
Yeah, I'd probably have said either more or nothing, but I don't mind being cleared.
Voting rolugomi; he's a good person to clear.
I was going to offer to vote myself if we don't have enough votes for a majority near end of round so we'd clear somebody, but then I realized it doesn't matter because I couldn't vote if I were the boss.

Voting doomfeathers for a clear!

That memo is totally helpful... But I'll put my vote on Doom for the clear, but I'm pretty sure it's not him.
Sadly I can't participate in the scavenger hunt...been bible quizzing all day and will be doing that tomorrow too...
Life without God is like an unsharpened pencil. -No Point

The hunt is over! You may now all discuss your success or lack thereof.
Three people correctly solved it: Lightwolf, RGW, and Jayo.
Lightwolf came in first by only 5 MINUTES!! Congrats!
Solution
1. Start with this secret code: kj kt mb sn ry
The correct cipher to use for this was the Playfair cipher.
2. You will need a keyword to decipher the clue. The word(s) can be found in one of the quizzes I've created and had published here on Braingle in question #8.
The correct quiz was my "Doctor Who Companions" quiz. The correct keyword was the words in quotes: badwolf
3. Once deciphered, remove the last letter. Search for the username that matches what you've found.
The deciphered code gave you jimshortsx. Drop the letter x and find JimShorts, a braingle user (whom I've never actually encountered here, he was randomly chosen).
4. When you have the correct user, find his or her published brain teasers. You'll have to find the right one so that you can...
The correct brain teaser was called "Safe Crackers"
5. Send me a PM with the answer to this question: "Who is guilty?" The answer is Chris.
Phew! going to keep things a bit more simple next round I think. I like that suggestion Harry.

I didn't think it was hard, the problem is that the round and clue started at midnight my time. I was asleep. When I woke up, had some coffee and checked the game, the round was some 7-8 hours into it.
No problem not being #1... but time zones will always come into effect on games like this; hence why I normally do not try them when I realize almost half the round is over when I start. However, just being named #1 is not really an issue; I wanted to try and solve it.
Congrats Lightwolf!. I was only up this late tonight because I watched the Men's US team win the Curling!

The purpose of the hunt was to give something more challenging to those who may have been a bit bored last round. Mix and match.

I live in the Los Angeles area, PST. A group of USC students are filming a 5 minute "movie" on my front lawn today and tomorrow and I have to be up by 7 AM. I was actually up until 2 AM last night because of that curling match and set my alarm for 6:15... I feel it, eyes have been droopy all day. Good group of students though, and watching them do take after take of the same thing is kind of fun.
