The Mystery Game
The Murder Mystery game, as some of you know, is a board game, as well as a club in the well-known TMB, from which most of you were recruited xD
However, here in WTRP another mod and I -nods at Eli- have modified it slightly to create the Mystery Game - in which not many people die. There could be thieves or burglars and possibly even pirates - but that would be too obvious, no?
Once we have enough members who sign up for this, I'll open a thread in which the game can commence [ titled: 'Mystery 1' ] and PM two members who have signed up, assigning them as 'detective' and 'thief/murderer/burglar'. Neither of them know who each other is, which makes things all the more interesting, don't you think? The murderer is put at a disadvantage.
After that's done, I'll begin the 'scene' in which you'll be writing in. The members who have signed up can post there (RP-style, of course!) in relevance to the scene. [ Try to have at least fifty words a post ]
Since there are two different versions of this game, I'll start with the thief/burglar version.
The thief will PM his/her victim during the party, one per day, and tell them that they've been thieved. The victim will have to write out the scene on how they found something missing, and finding a subtle clue about the thief for the detective [ who is always undercover ].
NOTE: Once someone's been stolen from, that person can no longer post in the game [ we'll just assume that the person had a mental breakdown and had to be sent to the hospital -ninjapanda- ]. And the identity of the thief has to be secret
And now for the murderer version!
The murderer, like the thief, will also PM his/her victim during the party, and tell them that they've been killed. The victim will write out the death scene, never revealing who the murderer is, and leave a subtle clue about the murderer, again, for the detective's sake. [ Also again, he's undercover ]
The murderer/thief can only kill/steal from one person a day, but s/he can kill/steal from as many people as s/he wants. S/he will get ten pounds for each victim. The detective starts off with 100 euros, but loses 10 each time a murder is committed. Also, the victims get 10 euros when they post their death.
If the murderer/thief tries to kill the detective, s/he automatically loses the game, and the detective gets all the 100 pounds. So s/he has to be careful whom he chooses to kill or steal from.
The game ends when:
The detective finds out who the murderer/thief is.
OR
The murderer/thief tries to kill/steal from the detective.
OR
The detective loses all his 100 pounds.
