Sleuth Home - Message Boards - Message Board Game Room

Here is how the game works. Once there are seven people the game will begin. One of the seven people will be randomly chosen by a moderator as the victim. One of the six remaining people will be randomly chosen by a moderator as the murderer. A moderator can play this game but cannot be involved in the selection process or any other aspect that would create an unfair playing field.

There are six weapons. These items are a knifeboot, an icepick, a Model T automobile, a swordfish, a safe, and iocane powder.

There are six suspects. The victim never commits suicide.

There are twenty rooms. The rooms are the Red Rum Room, The Green Gangrene Room, the Blue Ball Room, the White Washing Room, the Orange Otter Room, the Game Room, the Security Room, seven different rooms for the players, the Maze Room, the Trap Room, the attic, the cellar, the observatory, and the aviary.

Each player will be sent some clues to help them get started. Do NOT share your clues with other players.

Note: The victim will have a role to play in the game, although it will be in the form of a ghost.

Once we have enough people, I will explain the rest of the game.

ok, I am done waiting. Anikka, it is your turn. Yes, you get to be first.

Anikka, choose a room to go to.

Anikka surveyed the lifeless body of AraLives, sighing sadly at the loss of the vivacious detective. Suddenly, a chain rattles! Totally taken off guard, Anikka ran to what she (oddly) considered the safest place.... the Maze Room!

Feb-23-2007 21:55

The maze room contains a hedge maze. Anikka decides to enter while thinking to herself that she is smart enough to find her way out. Several hours later Anikka is stumbling around lost when she sees a ghost. At first she thought she it was a mirage but after several minutes of having the ghost smack her across the face with a paddle she realizes that the ghost is real. The ghost is AraLives. The ghost has something important to say.

Feb-24-2007 15:44

Astonished at the face-slapping, Anikka stares at the ghost of AraLives. Poor Ara seems to have something to say, but what could it be? Anikka begins to wonder if the ghost will disclose to her that Ara was murdered right here in the Maze Room. Was it possible? Could Special K have used iocane powder to do such a fiendish thing - right in this very room?

no way, SK is a saint!

(not part of the game, but I feel violated)

Just out of curiosity, everyone knows what iocane powder is right?
The most deadliest poison known to man.
odorless, tasteless, and dissolves completely in liquids.

The ghost of Aralives floats in. She looks pretty PO'd. She is carrying a paddle The paddle is used to whomp everyone she sees across the head--if she's going to be dead, then everyone's going to feel her pain. She has an excellent time wailing on Annika, then intones in ghostly fashion, "Think that hurts? My velour cloche won't stay on anymore. Because I'm DEAD. Now *that's* pain."

Ara sulks.

I didnt know, Chelsea, no.

Anyone else confused as to whats supposed to be happening?

Feb-25-2007 12:45

When it is your turn post here where you are going and your accusation. I send a PM and tell you how much of the information is right and wrong. I have to send PM's or other players would be able to figure out information that you worked to get, and that would be unfair.

Anikka's turn is over.

It is now Helen Corning's turn.
