After much deliberation and some heated finger pointing, our last Red Text investigation was left at a dead-end. Having obtained less than apeeling results, it was decided that we needed a lot more information before we could find our Red Text culprit.

Information like this isn't cheap of course, and the Red Text Writer does an amazing job of covering his or her or its tracks. Narrowing the culprit's identity down to a new list of suspects was going to take time.

After hiring a private investigator to help narrow down our list of suspects, it seemed our search for the truth was raising more questions than answers. What we did learn shocked and amazed us.

• Red Text's first appearance was at a greasy-spoon diner in Alabama, where a note was left for a waiter -- a note scribed in red pen.

We also learned:

• Red Text began painting with all the colors of the wind at age 5.

• Red Text has no fear of individual bugs, but is disgusted by millipedes because they're basically a hundred bugs packed into one.

• Red Text first came to Canada during a world tour Dance Dance Revolution tournament, but decided to stay when given the opportunity to work on an exciting space-ninja action game.

After realizing we overpaid for this information -- obviously -- a new list of suspects was drawn up based loosely on creative talents, addiction to puns, fear of millipedes and Canadian tournament-worthy skill at DDR. Unsurprisingly, the list of candidates is short:

Megan, Community Expert / Ginga Ninja

Draice, Associate Producer, never leaves office

DE_Skree, chat-addict and fan of ceilings

Penelope Winslow Snorkelsby, A spectral being that wandered this land since the Colonial Era. Holds the office high score in Wyrmius.
