The Mole 5.0 *Ongoing Clue Analysis and Challenge Discussions*
Nightstalker:
Hey guys. This is my first post. I've been watching this thread since the season started though. I was examining The Mole's diary on the ABC website and I think it's given away enough information already to tell me exactly who The Mole is. Feel free to correct me if you think I'm off. I'd love some input.
Okay, so first here's who is left:
Alex
Clay
Craig
Kristen
Mark
Nicole
Paul
"Being blindfolded while flying 40MPH on a luge... That's something new for me."
Well, I guess this one depends on how we interpret the clue being changed. Was it changed because it was misleading or because it gave too much away? I assume it's because it gave too much away since another page has a grape stain on it. Only the blindfolded people had to touch the fruit. Craig, Mark and Nicole weren't blindfolded so I've eliminated them.
Alex
Clay
Kristen
Paul
Another page refers to Kristen in the third person. So unless The Mole is Kristen and she talks like The Rock then she's eliminated as well.
Alex
Clay
Paul
The diary also talks about playing the soccer game. That reinforces the elimination of a few suspects including Kristen again. Also, another page asks how to say something in Spanish. Why would Alex ask that question? We've seen that he's fluent in Spanish. So who does that leave?
Clay
Paul
So that's it. From my perspective it's a 50/50 guess. I don't know about anyone else but if Paul was The Mole he would have to have the biggest set of balls in the world to be so vocal and in everyone's face all of the time. That leaves me with one option only.
The Mole is CLAY!
Thoughts?

actually i think its paul because he is in everyone's face. He obviously is liked by mark and clay. THey tend to not really say much when he goes nutso.
The women are always just like pfffft whatever and just assume he's a New York butt hole.

If we invert the clue card to read like this:
Z O O
P Q R
E F G
and substitute the letters for their corresponding numbers in the alphabet, we get:
26 15 15
16 17 18
5 6 7
Now subtract the bottom row from the middle row:
26 15 15
11 11 11
This is where I stopped unless ZOO should be left alone, then we have:
Z O O
11 11 11
I don't think anyone has mentioned this yet, not that I can recall, but Craig and Kristen both come San Diego and Santa Monica respectively which are equally religious names. Perhaps a little diving into these two saints or cities might produce something. San Diego does have a world famous zoo as well. ;)

Ok so I think you are defiantly on the right track...i did the same thing exchanging letters for #s and the one thing that jumped out at me is that the numbers in the top and middle rows are 11 #s apart(ABCD[E]{F}(G)HIJKLMNO[P]{Q}(R)S)...and seeing as 11 seems to be the seasons number I thought it was important
..so. I fallowed the pattern and went back 11 numbers from the Z and got O and 11 letters back from O is D...ODD...so I think the clue is odd...odd what idk. so I think it make since but I could be way off.
Craig and Kristen have an odd # of letters in their names......seems a little obvious.

Great analysis Nightstalker! Only I thought it was Alex who knew Spanish? Or is that who you meant?
I had also eliminated Kristen if the journal is on the up and up, but missed the soccer reference so that would eliminate Mark too huh? Wow. I thought for sure he sabotaged the "When Pigs Fly" challenge, both when they got lost and then when he was rushing them to no end to shoot the pigs. If they had slowed down a bit they wouldn't have broken as many perhaps. Same with the scavenger items. He picked up that camera and said something like, "just put anything on the table for now." Just some thoughts! I'm still at a loss, but Clay, Craig and Mark are the three in my sights (for now).
