I don't want to come late to the party and all here, but can I be a cop too and protect NBarden?

... Sorry I'm late I ate too many dognuts and almost got sick last night.
But It looks like it's under control
Time
What know we of this despondent thing
No sign no sound no tranquil ring
We try to tell its quantity
yet fail to see the point
Only one can know of it
to this eternal joint
We have not power in Use
To hold this creature bay
But only wait for it to change
Inside the soul of it we lay

Can I get involved?

And I agree with HawkeyeSPF
"The rule of Gondor is mine!"

You may become a cop, as there is still room for one more.

Now, let's see if my my first victim survived the attempt on his life:

I drove towards NBarden's house, mindful of the possibility of a police ambush.
I parked my Jeep a few hundred yards from his house and crept towards it, a gun in my hand.
When I came within view of the house I was frustrated by the sight of several police cruisers
parked in the drive. "Foiled," I though to myself as I retreated the way I had come.
That was alright though, there were plenty of chances left to even the score...


HawkeyeSPF successfully cracked both the password, and the clue to my victim.
NBarden is safe, for the moment. This is only a taste of what's to come, so don't
let your guard down yet.


Back at the police station, the cops crowded around the laptop and opened
the program I had left. Before them the following message appeared:


Good job. You have saved one of my victims, but many more remain and their
lives rely on your collective good judgment and common sense. Good luck, amigos.


Password clue #2:
"Out, out brief candle! Life's but a walking shadow,
a poor player that struts and frets his hour upon the
stage and then is heard no more: it is a tale told by
an idiot, full of sound and fury, signifying nothing."


4 days.

Hmm...Macbeth, Act 5 Scene 5 23-28...and it's missing the other lines he says before that:

"To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death."

Having a tough time with this one. Any ideas?

Is this in a book?
Or just a play write.

I'm guessing it either has to do with Macbeth himself or has to do with the title of the scene.

Well, the lines are spoken by Macbeth right after Lady Macbeth dies. I'm not seeing any potential passwords though,
I'll try tomorrow after I've gotten some sleep.  :)

Sadly you failed to crack the password in time.
You will receive a clue to a victim's identity, but you have only 24 hours to protect the correct person.


You should protect the unknown.

Yea, no clue what he's talking about. I protect myself as well, sorry to the person who may or may not die, but I haven't been home since last night and I was busy.

As I drove down the road I pondered my next move. "Was the clue about 'the unknown' too easy?"
I thought. "Will this be another defeat?" I parked my truck several hundred feet from the house and
crept towards, it, mindful of the light in one of the windows. I slipped up to the door and unlocked it.
I searched several bedrooms until I found the one that was lighted. I opened the unlocked door and
drew my silenced .45. My victim was unprotected. He looked at me for a single second, then I shot him.
Anonymous Prodigy, the unknown, was dead. I doused the room with gasoline, lit a match, and dropped it.
I set several more fires and departed, satisfied that I had done my predecessors proud.

The cops failed to protect Anonymous Prodigy and he has payed the price of their incompetence.

While I carried out my plan, the cops were busy milling around the police station.
Officer GoG and Officer E!U had barricaded themselves in a corner of the station as
the other officers drank coffee and ate donuts. Suddenly, the program the assassin
had created opened, and this message appeared.


The unknown is dead. I would have thought you would have drawn a correlation to
Anonymous Prodigy and the unknown. Pity that you failed. This is your first defeat.
It will not be your last. Muahahahahahahahahahahahahaha hahahahah!  :twisted:


Password clue #3:
He who created it doesn't want it.
He who bought it doesn't need it.
He who has need of it doesn't know it.


You have 4 days to solve both password and clue.
