Here's how to find the murderer of the ETC Murder Mystery #2. I'm dissapointed no one solved it this time, but at the same time I'm aware of how hard the last step was. Here we go:

• The first clue was the URL, and the obvious thing to do was to visit that. You were supposed to view the topic by SK Warrior, and venture into IhAtEeInStEiN's profile, and see next_clue314@yahoo.com, and e-mail it, asking for the next clue.
  
• The reply to the email was:
  
  

  IhAtEeInStEiN's password is Einstein's favorite food.
  
  Daisyduu and Makkura are innocent.[/b]

  
  
  So that eliminated daisyduu and Makkura_no_Zennousha from being the murderers. If you had read the topic on Hitz4Free, you would have known pizza was the password. Signing in, you needed to check the inbox and see the message from SK Warrior.

  I do not wear red.[/b]

  
  
  The first line was hidden, so it wasn't easy to find. It would be unscrambled: I am not Kantal or BlackLusterSoldier. That eliminates them. Clicking the link would take you to a topic by Sharingan Warrior Kakashi, aka SK Warrior. He replied to Einstein saying "thx a lot ein ur a rulnig god but i think ur 2 smrt for ur own good loolo". That gave the impression to check his profile, seeing what posts/topics he's made.
  
  
• His sig contained:
  
  

  Ssab ton ma I.
  
  
  -RTL[/b]

  
  
  RTL means right to left, so you were supposed to read it backwards. LTR made it say I am not Bass. You were then supposed to check his topics, to find a trading list. If you paid attention enough, you saw that Overlay had a little conversation with him. In one of Overlays posts, there was a pretty hidden link. The text was "pet".
  
  
• That link took you to a hidden forum on Hitz4Free. You were to put in pizza to the password protected forum, and read the topic inside. This was the hardest part. Here's the post that was inside:
  
  

  I am not really the guy you ponder upon. As usuall, everyone is going off, guessing to the most evil or greedy.Maybe its human nature? Note that, even though you have gotten this far, it will probably be the furthest.Only in time will people find who "Torrential" is. If only you people knew who this was, it would baffle minds.Killing is actually fun, even though it feels like you rule the battle arena in the game of yugioh, eheheh., For you see, this message contains the truth.Remember that, the murder was out of pure...Er...Estrangement, as you could maybe say.Defying me through this message would be ironic though., However, if you do figure out who this is, you will only be in discomfort.Astrology isnt my thing though, so take that off your list...Only, 1 off the list though, so dont get too comfortable and go off guessing., Sometimes I wonder though, why did this happen?Perhaps it really was out of pure estrangement.Actually, it wasnt.Killing from 1 reason...You'd have to be a fool to kill like that., Or would you?Really knowing would be tough... All this time, wondering...Now it is finally appearing to be clear.I am the one who...Murdered...Einstien, now it is so clear, but why wasnt it clear before? X.
  
  
  You've successfully come to the very end of this mystery. There's only one thing left to do, and that's to find the murderer of Einstein. There's only 5 suspects left, and your answer will rely on pure instinct and wit. Here we go:
  
  Good luck, and remember to PM godman123 on ETC with all of your evidence.
  
  Oh and here's a hint, your answer is in the context you've sought.[/b]

  
  
  So. Here's where most of you got stuck. The point was to take the last line of text and use it real carefully. Read each capital letter from "I am not really" to "X." See? That narrows it down to your 5 remaining suspects. Here's who they are:
  
  Envoy
  NappaMan123
  Vash Ryou
  Overlay
  YamiKikyou
  
  Those last two clues were what I was looking for. People were giving me the most random clues I've ever heard, and they weren't even close. So, in conclusion, the murderer was indeed envoy, and that's why.
  
  
  The ETC Murder Mystery crew and I are going to be taking a short break from creating mysteries. We'll be back as soon as we can with the next mystery. Until then, keep using those brains to solve everyday mysteries!

Yeah.

The hint said '' I am not wearing red, nor have I ever.''

So why is Vash a suspect because he was an admin. So there is a flaw! =|

So that last hint was wrong!
