Police Lineup (Conclusion + 4/9 final guess lists in pms)

[roseheart]

Sign up by posting a silly crime.

This can be something like "You farted in the elevator." or "You typed LOL but didn't really laugh." Once we have enough players (and a multiple of 3) these crimes will be collected and randomly sent to each player---it is possible, though unlikely that you will get the crime you submitted.

Once the game starts, I will state 3 player names, and a crime one of them committed. Ask them anything you want, and when a majority vote has been reached I will reveal the true criminal. The guessing team all gets a point if they are right(even if an individual did not vote with the majority, they still get credit). If they get it wrong, the criminal and the innocents each get a point. If I decide one of the line-up was lurking and not participating, I may revoke their point. Once all players have been called up then the final score will be tallied!

Discussion outside the thread is forbidden. Do not edit your posts. Make all votes and vote changes in

bold red font

. (I'm a little slow reading, so any player made "votebox/list" will be appreciated!)
Once everyone has voted, the majority will decide who's GUILTY!

"Posted a silly crime that wasn't silly!"

[roseheart]

OK, since we COULD start with 6, I'll put a 1 week deadline on sign ups, then we'll start with 6, or 9, etc. Anyone we can't fit into a wave of 3 will be called in if we need a replacement.

[roseheart]

The roster is now final, and all crimes have been assigned. See you tomorrow!

CASE FILE #001
HARMLESS TROLLING

"Let's gooooo!"

A popular Twitch streamer's face is illuminated by his monitor, his recognizable features are his black round glasses and red and white stripped beanie. Then, SWAT breaks down the door, and the streamer begins convulsing, suffering from a MASSIVE HEART ATTACK. There was no BOMB, it was a prank call. Outcry poured in for the internet celebrity, the police said they were taking this seriously. At the station they called in three suspects:

Malkon05
Jake The Wolfie
Cheery Dog

"We've traced the calls and ONE OF YOU must 'ave done this, as only you three were near the phone booth that night. We know two of you are INNOCENT, but that you've been contacted by various MAFIA SCUM to take the fall...don't be dumb. What ever they promised or threatened you with isn't worth obstructing JUSTICE!"




"Detectives, take this case seriously, we suspect that the streamer's heart condition was known, that this was a mob hit. That WALLY CHARLIE JONAS WALDO was MURDERED! Find out who did it. Find out who..."

Posted a silly crime that wasn't silly!

Begin your interrogation of the suspects now. Good luck!

[roseheart]

Thanks for good participation suspects.

[roseheart]

^Thanks.

[roseheart]

Seems like the questions are slowing down, so I'll give a bit longer for that then we'll need to work towards a majority.

[roseheart]

Yeah I had hoped to keep this informal, but it seems we'll need deadlines. You all have 48 hours. Get to work!

[roseheart]

if we are formal enough for DLs then can u prod the person that hasn't answered my question??

Jake, haven't heard from you in 4 days. Got to be more active buddy.

[roseheart]

Yeah, this is definitely a moon logic game.

[roseheart]

24 hours remain, it's time to vote.

[roseheart]

I don't know what that means. I won't be online much so don't wait up for me to reply to anything.

Good luck, Detectives...

[roseheart]

The letter after "N" in my keypad died, picks are final but until I can replace my keypad talk will be permitted.

[roseheart]

It will take a week ta ship my new keypad. If it was a few days I'd wait, but I'll just get thru writing the update tmrrw. Srry there was this wait, see u tmrrw fr the next case!

Edit: Final Votes for Case 1

Malkon (4): Ariel, The Worst, N, Gammagooey

Jake The Wolfie (1): N
CheeryDog (1): Chickadee

[roseheart]

(Think I'll hold off on the reveal until the end, so the odds are more even. Be sure to keep your crime a secret.)

CASE FILE #002
TWINKLE, TWINKLE, TATTLETALE




A mustached man with a big nose and glasses sneaks around with a trenchcoat. He slips into a 24 hour diner, and orders a late night coffee. He pulls out a rolled up newspaper from his coat and spreads it on the table. SUSPECT ARRESTED F0R ATTEMPTED MURDER 0F GAMING CELEBRITY, WALD0 IN HIDING. The man lets out a heavy sigh...The waitress pours him his coffee, she notices red and white stripes in the relaxed opening of his trenchcoat. They lock eyes, exchanging a knowing glance...he holds a single finger to his lips, and she pulls a zipper shut across her own, and winks. Surely he's safe now. The waitress goes to the back to clock out for her shift, when she looks out and screams! Gunshots spray glass and the trenchcoat man flees. When the waitress looks down her hand is bright red from her belly. Beyond the diner a telephone booth's phone dangles by its' cord...

Ariel
bugspray
Chickadee

"Detectives, take a look at these 3 suspects. we met up with the waitress at the hospital, she says all three had left just before the shootout. 0ne of them has loose lips. The mob was called, and Waldo was chased by mafia shooters and cornered at a cliff, where he was seen plummeting to his certain doom. This time a heart transplant wont bring him back. By Moby Dick's beard, find out who made that call!"





"SUSPECTS, we know that 0NE 0F Y0U called that mafia scum hotline to get the bounty for finding Waldo, that this was a mob hit. That WALLY CHARLIE JONAS WALDO was MURDERED! We know two of you are INNOCENT, but that you've been contacted by various MAFIA SCUM to take the fall...don't be dumb. What ever they promised or threatened you with isn't worth obstructing JUSTICE! Just confess, just say..."

i pm'd.

Begin your interrogation of the suspects now. Good luck!

[roseheart]

(Noted.)

Ariel (2): Cheery Dog, Gammagooey

Votes are locked in. The final round begins tomorrow.

Rose, my vote was on bugspray, not Ariel

Thank you.

[roseheart]

Hey, sorry no update yet. I had several deadlines converge today without me noticing, and I will need to delay a day. Fun trivia, my keyboard hasn't arrived yet, I've just gotten used to using a virtual keyboard lmao. I suppose all things considered, this game has gone pretty well, I do hope you will stick around for case 3 tomorrow. Again I am sorry.

[roseheart]

(A reminder to keep your crime a secret. Even after voting ends...Thanks! Doing great everyone.)

CASE FILE #003
OLD MONEY



The richest person in the world is throwing a party, and the host is in tears at a moonlit balcony. Is it regret for the people they climbed the shoulders of and left in the mud? Nothing like that. They are looking at a photo of a smiling young man with a red and white striped sweater and beanie, and black round glasses. The short man wipes his grey mustache and adjusts his top hat before returning to the guests. Three more are just arriving in identical silver cars.

Gammagooey
N
the worst

The host is now smiling big under his grey mustache, and dumps a silver wheelbarrow full of all colors of world cash into the parking spot. The new arrivals frantically scoop all up, but each find an orange card. It says they can gamble their money by just rolling the dice. Two big cube-shaped balloons float down, and they toss them back and forth, until they collide in the air and float to the ground, ones. A muscular security guard escorts them to a poorly lit back room, where they find out due to the terms of the card, they all owe a tremendous debt. Two smile, and explain the fine print on the card, that since they weren't the first to touch the dice, the card could redeemed as a "get out of debt free" card when the collector comes. The little rich man stomps so much from frustration that the hotel shakes. "No one ever reads that!" Back at the party, a mob contact reaches out to help the one with crushing debt, all they have to do is deliver a small package. The mobster steals the orange cards from the other two, and says they'll only give it back if they cooperate. All three leave with a large chest. Two of them full of the free money, one of them with the package.

A fourth guest arrives moments later, sopping wet. "Grandpa, I'm Home! Where are you!?"




"Detectives, the richest person in the world...is missing. We know one of these party guests dropped a package off at the mafia hideout. Find out who made that delivery...because MR. MONOPOLY was KIDNAPPED!!"




"SUSPECTS, we know that 0NE 0F Y0U made the delivery to the mafia hideout. We know two of you are INNOCENT, but that you've been contacted by some MAFIA SCUM to take the fall...don't be dumb. What ever they promised or threatened you with isn't worth obstructing JUSTICE! It's your fault you gambled everything and lost. Just own up and admit to yourself the truth, just admit..."

I didn't read the terms of service

Begin your interrogation of the suspects now. Good luck!

(Voting will end in 8 days, April 10th!)

[roseheart]

OK! Votes are now locked in! Feel free to discuss. Conclusion post in a fewish days. Stay tuned, I have something in mind.

You will notice I have omitted answers. Before you go posting your extrapolations, I challenge each of you to work alone, and determine EVERY CRIME'S PERPETRATOR! Your EPILOGUE will be determined by

your medal

*, and then your number of correct answers. (PM list; *nvm all same medal)

Good luck, Detectives.

[roseheart]

My understanding of that means we either caught all three culprits or we caught no culprits.

If you were a suspect/criminal and won, you also got a point.


Clarification: You can also guess on the crimes of who were not the main three if that wasn't clear already when you PM your list.

[roseheart]

Almost half of the suspect lists have been submitted.

[roseheart]

i will not do that last part

Why?

[roseheart]

If you have no guesses, not much you can do anyway.

[roseheart]

I was expecting us to go through all nine cases, but I guess interest in this was dwindling

No, that was never the plan. Once everyone is called up that's it. Sorry if you thought the game would last longer! There will still be an Epilogue...even if not everyone finishes...

[roseheart]

Ok, I'll lock in submissions tomorrow and post the Epilogue soon after. ttyl
