Based on the popular board game Clue: Master Detective (or Super Cluedo in Europe), this is a Non-mafia Free For All Minigame. It involves mechanics of moving through rooms and questioning/deceiving other players. Be the first to solve a murder mystery and win the game!
Mr. Boddy of Boddy Manor has been murdered by one of his unappreciative house guests, somewhere in or around the manor house with an unknown weapon. Whodunit? Where? With what weapon? Scotland yard is depending on you, the best detective in England to answer these questions.
Phases:
1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10, 11, 12, Game Over
Game Setup
There are 30 cards consisting of 9 Characters, 8 Weapons and 13 Rooms.
One card of each type has been removed from the game and represent the facts of the murder case. The rest of the cards will be randomly and evenly distributed among the 9 players.
Every player begin in the Cloak Room and will be assigned a random Character.
During each phase, each player may move to a different Room and either make a Suggestion or an Accusation.
Each phase will last 48 hours and phase change will happen at 21:00 GMT.
The phase change will include a map of all players current location and a list of all Suggestions made that phase.
External communication such as skype or PM is not allowed when discussing the game!
Movement
Below is a map of all the rooms in the manor. Each phase you can move to any room that is connected by a black line to the one you are currently in. For example, if you are in the Conservatory, you can move to either the Studio or the Trophy Room. To move, you must send both hosts a private message, with the move you want to make, for example: "Move from Conservatory to Studio".
Suggestion
Each phase you can make a Suggestion as to which Character killed Mr. Boddy, with which Weapon and in which Room. You then choose another player to disprove your Suggestion.
To do this, make a post using the following format:
[b]Suggestion:[/b] I think [Character] killed Mr. Boddy with a [Weapon] in the [Room] and I want [Player] to disprove it.
Example:
Suggestion: I think Madame Rose killed Mr. Boddy with a Knife in the Kitchen and I want Zymf to disprove it.
You can only choose the Room, that you are currently in, but you can choose between all Characters, Weapons and Players.
If the Player you choose have any of the 3 cards you mentioned, they will be revealed to you in a private message.
All other players will only know if your Suggestion was Disproven or not.
If only 1 Player choose a Character in their Suggestion, the Character will be transferred to that Room, overriding their movement that turn.
If 2 or more Players choose the same Character in their Suggestion, the Character will not be transferred to any Room.
Accusation
Once you think you know the facts of the murder case, you can make an Accusation instead of Suggestion. Again, you must choose a Character, a Weapon and a Room.
To do this, make a post using the following format:
[b]Accusation:[/b] I accuse [Character] of killing Mr. Boddy with a [Weapon] in the [Room].
Example:
Accusation: I accuse Madame Rose of killing Mr. Boddy with a Knife in the Kitchen.
If your Accusation is correct and you are the first player to make this Accusation, you and your team win and the game will end.
However, if your Accusation is not correct, you will be eliminated and the game will continue. You are no longer allowed to post in the thread and your 3 cards will be revealed.
Teams
The 9 players are split into 3 teams consisting of 3 members each; 1 Detective and 2 Assistants.
The Detectives are the only ones that know who is on their team. The Assistants do not.
If a member of the team makes a correct Accusation the entire team wins.
Sharing
Once per phase, players may Share a specific category (Characters, Weapons or Rooms) of cards with one another.
To do this, make a post using the following format:
[b]Share [Characters/Weapons/Rooms] with [Player][/b]
Example:
Share [Characters/Weapons/Rooms] with [Player]
When 2 players both Share with eachother, they will be shown all cards within that category. It doesn't have to be the same category.
Voting
Each phase, players can Vote for another player to be eliminated.
To do this, make a post using the following format:
[b]Vote:[/b] [Player]
Example:
Vote: [Player]
By the end of the phase, the player with the most votes will be eliminated.
If a player makes a correct accusation before being eliminated, they will still win the game.
Sign up
To sign up for this game, use the following format: [b]Join: (Username)[/b]
The game is scheduled to begin Tuesday the 20th of September
If the sign-up list is filled by then, the 9 Characters will be randomly distributed using RNG.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask in a PM or this thread ;D
OBS: As this is the first time I'm hosting something like this, drastic changes to the rules might occur mid-game!
OBS: So far I've tried to keep it as simple as possible, though.
New Rules:
- If a player has not posted for 2 consecutive phases they will be replaced/modkilled (eliminated).
- You cannot be transferred to a Room you are already in.
- Players are split into 3 teams with 1 Detective and 2 Assistants (look above)
- Players may Share cards of specific types with one another (look above)
- Players can Vote for other players to be eliminated (look above)
- When a player is eliminated, their cards will be revealed.
