Mystery Murder Vol. 1

Okies, I thought of this idea when I was thinking of how to get a Detective Conan roleplay to work. Here's the idea.

A group of people, all with different reasons of being here, just happened to be in a hotel one night. The Clearwater hotel, not far from a very popular beach/vacation spot, is located in Florida. The hotel would seem like any other, until the unthinkable happens (Yes, happens, and I'll explain in a second). A murder, and since everyone was there at the time of the murder, no one could be allowed to 'just leave'.

Your people would live life normally, up until the time of the murder. Now, after that, your person would be trying to solve the mystery (either for your own reason, or to just get out of there and on with their life). You'd have your character do some actions, and if you saw any clues, I'd PM them to you.

Ok, now there's something that I haven't quite figured out yet. Who the murderer would be; a person on the roleplay (though that would sort of make one person just trying to cover his/her trail), or a person that's a NPC type thing. As in not controlled by anyone. So could you please tell me what you think it should be in your post.

Now, the rules.

1. You can't make clues up. I'll know what's where and I'll PM them to you.

2. If we have a person on the RP be the murderer, you can't tell people that you're the murderer.

3. You can't go arround accusing everyone. And to finally solve it, you need at least one piece of solid evidence.

Ok, here's the signup sheet thing.

Name: (self explanatory)
Age: (also self explanatory)
Acquaintances: (people with them)
Reason for being There: (reason for being at the hotel [vacation, etc]
Personality: (way they act)
Description: (how they look or a picture)

I'll basically be all of the NPC's (basically making them a player character, but oh well. You should get the idea.) and I'll narrarate and stuff.

OCC: Apparently, I put bios on my aquaintances, too. I think the murderer should be one of us (Or our aquantances...) not an NPC... That isn't a bad idea, but you would have to make a whole lotta NPC's or we could just take a guess. Just my opinion. (I think this is gonna be a really fun RP ^^)[/COLOR][/FONT][/B]

[COLOR=DarkGreen][B][FONT=Franklin Gothic Medium]Um.... I'm just wondering, how would the aquaintances work? Like, if they are all in thier own place, and they each find a clue at the same time, is that posible? ex.:[/COLOR]

[COLOR=DarkOrange][I]Kitsue walks into room and sees something suspicious...[/I][/COLOR]

[FONT=Comic Sans MS][COLOR=DarkRed]Jason goes to dining hall to get something to eat, but stumbles across a closet he's never seen before... Curiosity takes over him and he opens the door...[/COLOR][/FONT]

[FONT=Book Antiqua][COLOR=DarkSlateGray]Christopher was almost finished re-writing a report ((OCC: I've decided he's gonna be an aspiring writer with a columb in a newspaper)) and he got up to open the window and saw two people talking below... One of them stepped into the light and Christopher saw it was...[/COLOR][/FONT]

[COLOR=DarkGreen]See, I don't really get how we are gonna even do that, since it's not like we have a floor-plan of the hotel thing, so how're we gonna know if there even IS a closet on the way to the dining-hall or whatever?[/FONT][/B][/COLOR]

Ok, unless someone can think of another way, I have two options.

The clue will be shared with EVERYONE, or
acquantances will not be able to find clues.

Those're the only two options that I think would work. And for the second, I think I'll hand draw a map of the hotel and scan it. I'll encorperate it into the story (don't ask how, I already have a way), and either post links to it or do an image tag, whichever. I'll try not to make it too detailed, that way it doesn't load slow on old computers (for whoever uses one).

I'll start it tomorrow (and PM everyone, just in case they forgot about it) if no one else joins by then. If someone else joins, I'll start it as soon as I see that they have.
Deal?
