I'm tempted to answer "Lies" for Solifuge, but it doesn't seem specific enough for the second half.

Nope to both. This may be a bit tougher than I thought, but there should be clues enough there. You won't find it anywhere on the internet either, so no use Googling it! :P

Leafsnail wins!

Electric Chair was a nice answer though, I must say.

Electric chair actually works brilliantly until "I am the least vicious", which I'd say is pretty debatable :P.

I have absolutely no idea. Some of those sentences confuse me as to what they're saying.

Soooo...Have any of you seen The Master Theorem?  It's pretty fun.  Some of the weekly puzzles are simple, some of them are a little harder, and some of the seals will mess with you a little.  It's just getting off the ground right now--it's got like 800 members at the moment, had more like 300 when I joined a couple weeks back.

You can get an account by solving the current puzzle, or with an invite.  PM me with your email if you want an invite.

I keep thinking "pentagram", is that it?

Imagine a cool peice of sky-blue and milk-white marble about 3cm by 2cm and by 0.5cm, containing a tiny 2mm malacolite crystal. Now imagine the miles of metamorphic rock it's embedded in that no pick or chisel will ever touch. Then, imagine that those miles will melt back into their mantle long before any telescope even refracts an image of their planet. The watchers will be so excited to have that image too.

I'm trying to do it the hard way, Damn puzzle of the week, I'm almost positive I have the answer, but It isn't taking.

No, sadly. Maybe I made it a little bit too difficult.
