Shifty Pete reports : Attempted assassination by The Jelly Bean resulted in 1 civilian casualty, my housemate Alex Trow.
Assassination Unsuccessful.
Assassination Unsuccessful.
Umpires Notes : Remember to make your reports as detailed as possible. It is useful to know exactly how the civilian was killed, how the assassin attempted to attack you, the location you were attacked in, what weapons were used, who else was there and so on. A well written and detail report can sometimes earn you Kudos.
The Jelly Bean reports : Prepared,anxious, i decided to take the fight to my victims, not a day before did i stroll the streets gazing from house to house, secretly planning my next trick. Mines i think, a letter box and a stakeout spot.
i create my tools of destruction, a card, that with my powers i can activate to explode on sight of my victim, so this very day i walk to the spot where i decide to play my first move. its a shame such an assassin should die this way...
through the letter box does my joker go, and lie in wait i shall in the tall grass just down the street, hoping for my victim to walk right into my trap.
1 hour later, i start my sandwich, thinking this could be a lost cause.
2hours later, the ipod of music i listen to runs to the level of boring... no sign of my victim i call the op off, and leave the card unused, for to fetch it would be suicide.
I know i am safe, for my character is the only one who can activate the mine, i have to see the card explode in my minds eye for my victim to witness the pain...
I leave, waiting for the next day to come, where i shall be more fool proof in my plan, i remain a secret, he remains with a target on his head...
The jelly bean (GAMBIT) [the Ace of Cards] will be back to strike again...

Umpires Notes : To clarify, The Jelly Bean is using a personification attack (see the rules for details). He has the persona and abilities of Gambit, from Xmen. He is able to use a deck of cards as an explosive weapon, with different cards relating to a different sized blast radius. The ability of the Joker card is that he can choose to detonate the card at any time provided it is within his line of sight. All other cards can only be used when flicked at an opponent.
In this situation the civilian would not have been killed since the "mine" was not detonated. As stated earlier, it is important to report all attempts in great detail in order for them to be properly evaluated.
For being the first player to actively attempt to assassinate a player, and for what sounds like a dedicated stakeout I am awarding 20 Kudos to The Jelly Bean.

Poptart feline that poops rainbows and meows alot reports : I arose this morning to find my innocent house mate (an innocent civilian) had been turned to jam spread across the walls and floors of my downstairs, after further investigation I found a scorched playing card, with the name Jelly Bean on it. I don't know if this player was after me, or maybe a possible other assassin in my residence, all i know is that my guard is up.
Umpires Notes : It appears that there has been another attack by The Jelly Bean. Unfortunately I am going to have to play the bad guy and pull out a big red card on this one (and therefore the one before it).
In an email instruction I sent to Jelly bean I stated the following : -
"When it comes to using cards as mines you can use the Jokers. Ensure that
they are clearly labelled "remotely activated mine" and that you are within
clear line of sight. The remaining cards will need to be flicked at the
target in order for them to activate."
For one thing the card shown is not labelled correctly since it only says "assassins mine" as opposed to "remotely activated mine". Another thing is that since the card has been posted through the letterbox it is unlikely that you have a clear line of sight to detonate, even it if it was labelled correctly.
I am therefore going to have to count these cards as regular contact mines since that is that they appear as to anyone who finds them. In this case the civilians in both instances are therefore dead. As a punishment for killing 2 civilians I am unfortunately going to put you on the wanted list for 2 day Jelly Bean.
Please remember that it is very important to label weapons correctly since mislabelling something can lead to allot of confusion. It seems a shame to have to punish the most active player in the game so far, however that is the nature of the beast sometimes.
P.S.
For the awesome photoshopping skills of Poptart feline that poops rainbows and meows alot I am going to award 75 Kudos.

The Jelly Bean reports : After a long and tiring game of league of legends, my guard was down, and when on the wanted list, this is not a good idea...
I look under my chair, and open my laptop carefully to check for poison or the like... Nothing... strange.
I set to opening internet explorer and pick up a couple of cashew nuts to munch into, ignorant to the poison inside.
a minute and a half later i reach again, this time looking at the bowl and spot an edge of paper in the bowl... POISONED!!
i grab a glass from the kitchen, half fill with water and sprint upstairs, feeling the corrosive liquid writing through my system, i reach for my toothpaste and mix the blue paste into the water, 6 mintues gone and its all ready, i consider the taste of it... not going to be nice, but its my life or my stomach... i down the glass.
laying in the bathroom waiting for the poison to wear off as the antidote kicks in. I now know my roomate is out to get me... Thats a bit more like it ;)
Only problem is, he left me alive, and a Jelly Bean with a mind for revenge is not something you want on your tail... let alone in your house!!

Smite_Master Reports : After finding out the wanted list already had a name on it, I did my duty, and promptly poisoned the food that I know no-one else would touch (the nuts). however I was later informed by a 3rd party that he had antidote on hand..
if he wasn't paranoid before, he certainly is now O_o.
although i must admit the taught of him mixing blue toothpaste and water is quite funny.
i will have to try harder next time!

Umpires Notes : Though his identity remains unknown, a few rare glimpses of The Jelly Beans alter-ego "Gambit" (through personification attacks) have made it to camera.
As shown in these images the persona Gambit (from the Xmen) seems to have the ability to manipulate matter using telekinetic powers. He can use these powers to charge a deck of playing cards with explosive results. Each card has unique properties.
In addition Gambit possesses a powerful staff which can release great amounts of energy in the form of a bang-kill. Caution is advised when faced with this foe; he has already brutally murdered two civilians in cold blood.
Here are the best from the images in question : -

- Face cards all cause explosions with varying blast radius depending on the card used.
- Jokers can be remotely detonated provided that they are within Gambits (The Jelly Beans) line of sight at the time.
- All other cards can be used as a lethal throwing weapon.

The Jelly Bean Submits :
Umpires Notes : For the creation of an awesome costume I am awarding The Jelly Bean 100 Kudos.
Please note, to really milk this costume for Kudos you need to get out there and start assassinating people..... BUT NOT CIVILIANS!!! Most of the Kudos gets paid out when any unique weapon is used.

Shifty Pete Reports : It was Wednesday. I'd been planning something for a little while. While out around town I gathered together all the necessities to build the most basic of explosive devices, concealed in an ordinary envelope and carefully created to detonate on removal of the device.
I had finished my lectures and decided to chance gaining entry to the target's residence, with no backup weapon on my person.
I made my way to Yarlet House and saw the maintenance guy. Beckoning him over, he let me into the building. I told him I was a friend of the target and needed to see if he was in. Maintenance Guy was fast becoming an unwilling stooge, a pawn in my scheme. Let into his halls, I found his room and knocked, nobody was home.
I wrote his name on the envelope and tucked the device under his door before making my retreat, laughing villainously at how perfectly this plan came together.
I withdrew. I stayed low. I waited for the news of his death, the reports of his burnt out room, the body blasted to smithereens, the shocked housemates. I waited days. No news came.
I believe my target called it quits. Hopefully not AFTER being exploded, that would be unsportsmanlike. But a sportsman he never could be with those missing limbs.

Umpires Notes : Remember that a players room is a safe zone so any explosions or poisoning that occurs within it would not affect your target.
Also you should aim to submit your report as soon as you have made the attempt e.g. planted a mine. You can request only have your report posted once the mines have been discovered.

A gruesome video of the attack has now been discovered. Unfortunately the quality isn't great and you can only just make out the attack on the original video file. The video might be cleaned up later.
Umpires Notes : Well it's the end of week one and allot seems to have happened. We have had our first fatality (R.I.P) and new writs have now been sent to those who had James postbox Milner as a target.
