I am here to set the record straight. I will admit that I am Celestia Luden..whatever. I will also admit that I did gamble on Jay…yesterday before I made my post. After his arrogant behavior day one and absence from the thread up until yesterday, I went with my gut (simply because I felt like Jay trying to be the lead would be complete ******** after that reach he made day one). And my gut was correct. Jay was one of the Despair, and as such I have received a hint as to who another member of the Despair is. I'll get to that later, though. I do applaud whoever paralyzed the votes…froze the town…ended the day phase…whatever the **** they did. That was a really smart way to incriminate me. So I'll assume that that player has somewhat of a head on their shoulders. They also managed to do it as soon as I was replying to Jay. How lucky can one person be, man. Anyways, I have some things to say.
First off, we should not just ignore Naku's hint, especially since that seems to be something really pivotal. "The stalker lies" could only mean that someone with an investigative role has either some sort of insane role, or has been lying to us this entire time. When looking at the remaining characters, the only person who has a role that fits this category is Byakuya. Take that as you may.
Secondly, the hint that I received for correctly gambling on Jay was as follows: "Money can't buy happiness…it only leads to utter despair." At first I thought our powerful and all-knowing headmaster Monokuma had handed me a dud of a hint. But then I realized something…This also applies to Byakuya. Byakuya is the Ultimate Affluent Prodigy, and canonically, he is the heir to the financial giant called Togami Corporation. So…there's that.
And finally, my investigation hint from today. "You find two sets of footprints on the stairwell, people probably stood in the acid. Both sets are seemingly male. They stop after the stairs"
