There may be a pattern, but who would go to the trouble of creating the chart in the first place? (Or even this game, for that matter.) Who thinks that way?
Using Bagboys latest guess; adding numbers, turning them into alpha, unscrambling, and coming up with SOX PIG does seem like a helluva lotta work (great problem solving skills though!). Is this a pre-existing game? I don't think so because it's not completely thought through (note numerous edits to the original post).

This person is a narcissist. They are confident we won't identify them. They refer to them self as well known (not frequent poster).

If someone identifies the assassin, doesn't the assassin have to admit they've been uncovered? The appointing of a successor would be silly. It would be limited only to those in the thread. I would find it quite funny if I knew nothing about this, but yet woke up to a random p.m. telling me I was "it"

The Assassin may be a police officer, but betraying the police will lead to harsher penalties if he or she is discovered.
?? Meaning what ?? If the assassin turns out to be a Police Officer do they have to turn in their badge

Police officers may die, but a police officer may protect another police officer.
Can a Police Officer protect themself?

Once killed a user may not post in the thread, as they are dead.
If it's someone not involved in the thread to begin with they wouldn't know they were dead.

All of the above is why I think the game wasn't entirely thought through and probably made up.

5. The assassin will provide clues which plainly point to his next victim, and occasionally to himself.
6. The assassin will continue to post with his true account, and may provide hints there.
That means we should all be reading all posts and looking for hints. S2S already brought up my name in this thread and mentioned something about a hockey stick in a locker room (and I have no idea what he is talking about) and bag boy points out SOX (which I do know what is being talked about) so I think it's my ass on the line here

Oh noes! I doez not want to diez
Hmmmm. So the point is, to out the assassin, but then the *winner* gets to take over the game. Why would we just not want to out the assassin and screw protecting anyone?
So, we have someone:
*Who is a narcissist (presumably male)
*
VERY tech savvy; knew to use imageshack not photobucket AND knows how to mask their IP with a confirmed proxy.
*With a sense of humor who uses the word Mwhahahahaha
*Very creative
*Likes to have fun
*Who likes attention
*Is literate, well spoken, and intelligent
*Whom theoretically, should be well known to frequent Sabres Junkies visitors
*Is very comfortable here
*Is sitting back and laughing at all of us right now
WTH. Someone protect my butt
If I made a guess right now (and I do have one person in mind), according to the rules I need someone else to agree with me. If we did that, and we were right, the game would be transferred to the next person. Also makes no sense because the rules state two people must make the first accusation, but yet no where in the rules does it explain what happens if those two people are right.
I have probably exerted 8 mental hours since 10 a.m on this
