The Murder Challenge

[Oggy123]

> Also look around the bedrooms for evidences.

[Guma]

like what are we even gona find. more footrints?

> help in checking anyway

[PointMaid]

I do agree that we probably need to widen our search...

> Just... look around the house for any more evidence you can find.

[TenOfSwords13]

I feel as if the possessed mortals may have cleared their tracks with efficiency.

>Try and find more evidence

[Kennifer]

"...please don't call my bedroom a cell, this situation is messed up enough already."

Michelle shudders. Speaking of the bedrooms though, she's going to

>Check for signs of people leaving theirs during the night (marks on doors? prints going in and out not explained by people leaving this morning? other things amiss?)

[Cassie]

...damn it. This is how we're starting off with the results...

[Florien]

Ugh.

>Remember and then check the doors that got went to and out of by people last night to figure out which door the killer went out of to reach the victim

[Dookie]

> Evidence (PP/Oggy/Guma/PM/TOS/K)

I'm gonna cut to the chase and say that I don't want to reveal all too much about the murder and leave most of it to social deduction, so you don't find anything more.

Jamie appears behind them all.

"You have until April 15th at 10:00 AM CST to execute someone. And remember, you must do it."

He disappears again.

Meanwhile, you can hear signs of chatter downstairs.

[Despair's Archon of Memes]

Of course. This game's rigged against us.

[PointMaid]

"...and remember, you must do it"

Wait a minute. WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN IF WE DON'T VOTE SOMEONE?

[Guma]

welll, weve found all we can find. literally any of us couldve done it except nintnedo, ctharlak, and maybe entrapta

[PopcornPie]

"Oh! The other hosts can help us!" Entrapta hurried downstairs.

[Kennifer]

"I don't think they're-- oh she's gone."

Michelle sighs.

"Okay, so... several of us could've done it based on footprints, but maybe not on the brute strength it would've taken to rip an arm off of a camera, depending on how much stronger possession makes people. If it even does; I'm not sure that's more than just speculation. But okay, let's say anybody could've gotten a boost in strength from possession. So we should look at... shit. Who would've targeted Hypercam in particular while possessed, assuming there was a reason behind their choice? Who seems like they're acting differently than yesterday? Any other ideas that make sense?"

She paces a bit as she talks, trying to work things out in her mind.

[Despair's Archon of Memes]

"...and remember, you must do it"

Wait a minute. WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN IF WE DON'T VOTE SOMEONE?

... I think they might choose someone at random.

[PointMaid]

"...and remember, you must do it"

Wait a minute. WHAT'S GOING TO HAPPEN IF WE DON'T VOTE SOMEONE?

... I think they might choose someone at random.

...Oh. That would be bad, yeah. Really bad.

I agree that's a good line of thinking if we haven't got much else to go on, Michelle. I can't think of anyone who had a specific reason to target the Cam, though. Anybody remember anything from yesterday that would help?

[Despair's Archon of Memes]

... Knowing some of the identities of the roles would help in narrowing things down... Of course, there's nothing stopping the killers from just... LYING... But it's something to think about.

[Kennifer]

"Yeah, I would fully expect any killers to lie, but the way people answer might be useful? I don't know. As for yesterday... okay, trying to think here."

[TenOfSwords13]

I feel as if those of us with talents should best keep them hidden, lest those possessed mortals may target the more powerful and least foolish of us. Do any of you foolish mortals have any preferences for whose blood we shed today, in the hopes of eliminating a possessed one?

[Florien]

The Hedgehog. Being strong and all and probably not needing weapons.

We have to think who specifically would not use weapons to brutalize someone. Unless someone has a better idea...

/Vote Coldsteel the Hedgehog

[PointMaid]

Gah... Maybe, but I don't know what to think. There are too many possibilities. I need to... think.

Selen(ium) starts tapping a beat on the side of her head.

[TenOfSwords13]

Likewise, I shall ponder. I would not mind getting it wrong, we have many chances, but getting it right would give us a major advantage.

Ctharlak ponders.

[PointMaid]

I do think being too hasty is... not necessarily helpful. We have a deadline - I don't like the sound of that, deadline - but we still have time.

[Florien]

Keep in mind we have precisely one piece of evidence as to who the killer is, and it points to nigh all of us.

We have nothing really to go on.

[PopcornPie]

While looking for the others, Entrapta analyzed the physique of everyone in her head. There was still little evidence in her mind that this couldn't have been a multi-person job; One to hold Hypercam down and deal the fatal pull, one to stomp him flat after the arm was removed.

[Kennifer]

"I'll keep it in mind, and I certainly plan to vote before the deadline, but I'm going to go over everything in my head one more time first. I'd also like to know what Coldsteel's got to say for himself so I can weigh that too."
