hey everyone! I'm Cynthia, and i'm running the next murder mystery game! here are the rules in case you don't know/forgot how to play!

(Copied from last MM game!)


RULES


1. Roleplaying. You will be playing a Disney character of your choice. So as not to confuse people, you would have to have your character's name, in front of everything you say or do. So, say I was Cinderella, I would say something like:
Cinderella: Oh my, I seem to have lost my shoe again!
If you want to say anything that doesn't relate to your character, but is something relating to you, then you would use OOC: (Out Of Character) instead of your character's name.

2. There are 5 roles to play. Murderer, Detective, Park Guest, PhotoPass Photographer, and Reporter. When we get enough players, I’ll choose who the murderers are. My original choice can decline if they want, and if they do, I’ll choose someone else. The murderers decides who will be killed every week or so. They have to wait, until I tell them they can though. When they choose, they will tell me who, then I’ll tell the person they want to murder through PM. The murderer can decide how the person can be killed. This game will be in River Country, so use the attractions as you wish. If a detective PMs me and makes an arrest, then if you are the murderer have to confess and the game will end.

I will also choose 3 detectives who will be the ones to solve the crimes. They will work together and will decide between each other who to arrest. You can only make one arrest for each time period between the murders. If you make a false arrest, the other members can choose whether or not they can stay as detectives. If the majority chooses to have new detectives, then they can vote for replacement detectives, which might put the murderer into power. If this happens, then the game is over. Detectives will have to PM me before making an arrest, telling me who it is. If they are wrong, I will tell them so, announce on the thread that an accusation was made and was incorrect. When mentioning the detectives falsely accused someone, I will not mention who. If the murderer kills off the detectives, then they have won, and the game is over.

Park guests are what keep the game going. Detectives and the murderers both count as park guests. You all act as your chosen character, and do whatever you want around the park, but keep your posts to PG related material. Park guests get to choose whether the detectives need replacing, and can choose the new ones. Since nobody knows who the detectives are, you can't suggest to them who you think it is, but you can make your own accusations on the thread, depending on the clues. But be careful, if you accuse the murderer, they might get mad and you could be their next victim...

There is also going to be two reporters. They’re going to be the ones stirring up some drama. Basically, there job will be to “interview” the Park Guests after each murder and write an “article” for the Disney Times, the newspaper that will be going out to each Park Guest, so they can “keep up” with what’s going on. The Reporter will still act like their character. Say the reporter is Cinderella, she’ll post her article “Prince Charming dies! I interviewed Fairy Godmother on her thoughts of this murder. Fairy Godmother: “It’s such a terrible thing to see a loved one murdered.” Cinderella: “I agree with you, Fairy Godmother”. If the Reporter interviews you, they may put it in their article in the paper, they may not. The Reporter WILL know who the detectives are, so she can ask them questions, which she will include in her article. She will not be giving out their identities, though. She’ll say “I have recently been in contact with one of the detectives, he told me “We are working hard to solve this case.” He also told me they have a few ideas on who they think this fiendish fellow we call The Murderer might be.”. The Reporters will NOT know who the murderers are. But everybody will know who the Reporters are, so if you want to tell them something, go ahead, they may put it in her paper. Just be careful what you say, you don’t know what can end up in their paper… that’s where the “Drama” comes in. The Reporter may stir some stuff up, openly accusing people herself, or reporting that another character accused someone.

anyone who wants to can be can be a PhotoPass Photographer. pretty much the Photopass people will use a photo editing software (paintshop, photoshop, polyvore, etc... whatever you use) to 'capture' the charaters spending time in the park. here is an example:

also, if anyone is up for making icons, go for it!

3. If you get murdered, you can't post as your character anymore, but you can still post on the thread out of character. You are NOT allowed to post as “Ghost of *character name*” once you have died. I may ask characters to post as ghosts far into the game, to give hints to the characters who are still alive. It is highly unlikely I will have to do that, but if it comes to the point, I will.

4. Whenever someone is murdered, there will be a small clue that will point to the murderer. It would be something pretty vague, such as blonde hair, or a piece of blue fabric. Over time, the clues will narrow down to a few people. Don't rule out a character, if they don't have a part of the clue. So, if there was cat fur, don't rule out Alice because she isn't a cat, because she owns a pet cat. The clues may also be rather difficult to interpret. That’s the POINT. So, all ideas of the clues could possibly mean, are welcome. The murderers will also be posting, trying to throw you off. You won’t know they are the murderers, so you’ll have to be careful on who you listen to

5. I will play the part of the park management, who will update everyone on the goings on around the park. When the murderers murder someone, I will make the post telling everybody. When the detectives accuse somebody, I will make the post saying so, I won’t say who they accused though. The only role that will be posting on their own (besides Park Guests) is The Reporter. They will type up their article, send it to me, I’ll check over it to see if I’d like them to change anything and once they have my okay, and they will post it under the name of their character.

6. Make sure that you have an empty PM box, just in case I pick you for the murderer or detective, if you get murdered, or falsely accused. PM’s stack up quickly, so please, make sure your PM box is empty or close to empty. Also, I expect the murderers, detectives, and reporter to reply to my PM’s, just so I know they understand what exactly is going on. They also need to send me PM’s so they can keep up with their plans.

7. Have fun! This game was made for the enjoyment of everybody, please, don’t be a sourpuss and ruin it for everybody. Thanks (:
the theme of this game is based off Disney's Give a Day Get a Disney Day program and set in the abandoned River Country Water Park and Disney's abandoned Discovery Island. each of your chosen disney character's has gotten this letter:

Quote:
*** Dear______,
Congradulations! you have been chosen out of the 1,000,000 applicants to go on a special, all expense paid trip to Disney World and to be apart of the winners of the "A New Year, A New YOU" contest. we are putting you and all the other winners up in either the Port Orleans French Quarter, Old Key West, or Saratoga Springs, which is very close to Downtown Disney! and don't worry, we have a LOT of fun events planned while you enjoy your array of prizes! Also, we plan on building some attractions in the Marketplace area...and we are leaving the designing to you! plus, for your help, we are giving all the winners (including Y-O-U!) free Disney Quest tickets to enjoy all day when you arrive! a week of fun is ahead of you as you make Disney history!

Can't wait to see you there,
Cynthia
Downtown Disney Managment

Can I suggest including the other Downtown Disney hotels as well? If I remember correctly, Saratoga Springs is the closest hotel, followed by Old Key West, then Port Orleans French Quarter, and finally Port Orleans Riverside. Also, Disney is currently planning to update Pleasure Island to make it something called Hyperion Wharf. Might be something to add to the attraction plans if you want.

Anyway, I think i'll be Oswald the Lucky Rabbit please :)

yeah, I was doin a lil research last night to c if i can add to the story, and I was thinking about doing other resorts besides French Quarter. And I knew about the pleasure island area becoming something else, and I'm not going to spoil anything, so I'll leave you with that. :)
 
Just an update here....

I added two more hotels to the game (If you hadn't already noticed. Thanks to marypops! for the idea) and when the game starts, everyone will be put into their own hotel.
 
Well of course probably not now since I've made the idea public.

And I was a murderer in the last game.
