If I were a certain sort of person, I would tell you that vague, misleading, and poorly-pinned clues and funky post times were part of a larger meta-puzzle, and express vague disappointment that nobody had given any indication yet that they were "on to me."
I'll leave it to your judgment of my character to determine whether I am, in fact, that sort of person.
Anyway, on we go.
