Hey everyone!
I was very surprised to find that Craig was the Mole, but on second glance, I fell into the executed contestants' mindsets and believed that Craig couldn't be the Mole. I'd be executed real quickly, let me tell you. At the end, I had thought that Mark was the Mole. But Craig's glance at the end of Three to Tango really threw me off. Well, here are the Decoded Official Clues.
OFFICIAL CLUES
Episode 1:
NIC@IT
Spell out, "@" which will give you "NIC AT IT." Unscramble the letters and it spells TITANIC. During the first episode, Craig, the Mole, is at the stern of the ship, arms outstretched, just like in the movie. It also serves as a misdirect to NICOLE.
Episode 2:
Heart
This is a reference to Liz, (the executed player) as she was wearing big HEART earrings at dinner. These clues will sometimes refer to the Mole, and sometimes who is executed for the episode.
Episode 3:
Grapes
Bobby who was executed in Episode 3, received a "Grape" massage.
Episode 4:
cf(11)8
This clue refers to Victoria's execution this week. C1, F1 and C8, F8 are the starting positions for the BISHOP in chess. Victoria's hometown? BISHOP, TX.
Episode 5:
CHNO
111738
C11 H17 N3 O8 is the chemical composition of TETRODOTOXIN, one of the most lethal neurotoxins in the world. There is no known cure. This refers to the Neuroscientist execution this week.
Episode 6:
X13421
This is the chord diagram for B Minor which also happens to be one of the chords in Alex's "Mole Hunting" song. (X) on chord charts designates an open string, the numbers correspond to the finger placement (1 -- index finger, 2 -- middle finger, etc.) This points to ALEX as the person that goes home this week.
Episode 7:
EP:1245
This points to the Executive Producer of Seasons 1 to 5 of "The Mole" (except season 3): Clay Newbill, and the Mole's next victim: Clay.
Episode 8:

10701 is the Zip Code for YONKERS, NY and the tip off for Paul's execution for this episode.
Episode 9:
MAP REC
Unscramble these letters and it spells "CAMPER" which refers to Nicole's shirt which she wore in the final mission. This tips off that she will be executed.

A B C B B
A C C B C A
This refers to the seating arrangement at dinner before the quiz. A = Players in the final three; B = Males; C = Females.
Episode 3:
s666 -- LIAr
The U.S. Federal Bribery statute is Section 666 (U.S.C. Title 18). The "s" refers to "section" 666 and the "r" makes a word out of the capitalized "LIA" (which unscrambles to ALI who takes the Mole's bribe in this episode).
Episode 4:
E F G
P Q R
Z O O
If you freeze frame and check out the license plate of the ambulance that wheels away Craig, the Mole, GPQ 604, and assign letters for the numbers [F= 6 ZERO = 0 D=4], it results in these 9 letters: E, F, G, P, Q, R, Z, O, O.
Episode 5:
234
715
This is a reference to the placement of the Final Three in the "All for One" mission: Mark (2nd) Craig (3rd) Nicole (4th), and the order in which they left below, Mark (7th), Craig (1st) and Nicole (5th)
Episode 6:
334
631
244
This is a clue for who is NOT the Mole - and that is the significance of the strikethrough of the letters. When the show cuts to MARK'S journal midway in the episode, he has certain notations for "sabotaged" missions next to ALEX, CLAY and PAUL. By crossing their #'s off, we imply that the MOLE is CRAIG, MARK and either NIC or PAUL.
Episode 7:
495
If you add up the numbers first entered by Craig, the Mole, into the computer during GO FIGURE, the total is
Episode 8:
TCELFER
This clue points to either MARK or CRAIG as the Mole. They were the only two players in that had their own reflection in the background during this episode. To read this clue, you'd have to hold it up to a mirror. It also dovetails with "How's The View?" where the "Vue" Goggle Vision was the mirror image of the outside world.
Episode 9:
7..26..52
This is the date that Eva Peron died and it's a nod that Craig, the Mole, visited the Recoleta Cemetery during the final mission.
Episode 10: The Mole - in blurry letters
"THE MOLE " in blurry letters points to Craig, the only player who wears glasses.
