 Breaking news! An attempted murder has taken place within our forum! The victim, well-known and well-hated millionaire Charles Montgomery Burns, owner of the Springfield Nuclear Power plant, was found barely hanging onto his life. Burns was rushed to Springfield Memorial Hospital where he is listed as being in critical condition. Details about the crime are sketchy at best. Local authorities are baffled as to what happened. There is a long list of suspects as everyone in town has a reason to want Burns eliminated. There were no witnesses to the crime and the forensics team has yet to identify the weapon used. The scene of the crime is also in question as police detectives mistakenly contaminated numerous buildings while searching for clues. We need your help to figure out this mystery! Here’s how you can help. Be sure to read this carefully as the criminal is still at large and may attempt to harm those trying to apprehend him/her! - Pictured below is our list of possible suspects, weapons and crime scenes.
- Authorities have given us 5 clues that tell us the suspects/weapons/locations that have been eliminated. Remember, the clues tell you what is NOT a correct answer.
- Once you’ve formulated a GUESS, post it here in this thread. Authorities will review your evidence and will post another clue they have uncovered if you are wrong. You will NOT be penalized for incorrect GUESSES.
- Your guess should be formatted this way: "I guess that Lisa committed the crime with the saxophone in the Springfield Retirement Castle."
- Be patient! Only one GUESS by any member is allowed at a time. If you post another GUESS before the authorities give a reply, the criminal will automatically come after you and you will become another casualty and thus eliminated from the game. The criminal will also remove your post to eliminate the evidence.
- No consecutive guesses. You must wait for at least one other member to post a guess before you can go again. This rule does not apply if you want to make an accusation.
- Authorities are busy trying to solve the case too, so they may be slow to review and respond to your guesses. Be patient!
- In order to solve the case, you must ACCUSE the correct suspect and name the correct weapon and crime scene. False ACCUSATIONS will give the real criminal the chance to come after you and you will become another casualty.
- Accusations should be made using this format: "I accuse Lisa of committing the crime with the saxophone in the Springfield Retirement Castle."
- The first person to ACCUSE the correct suspect and name the correct weapon and crime scene will win this wonderful badge worthy of Sherlock Holmes himself!
 So grab your clue list and your magnifying glass, and let the investigation commence!  CASUALTIES TO DATE:
C. Montgomery Burns

I believe I heard the following message over the hospital's PA system: "Paging BatusiMan, please report to Nurse Helga's office." |

 I'm officially never going to win. In fact, I shall now try to set a record for most games played without winning (if I'm not in the lead already).  *edited* That gif actually works really well with the white background. Yay. |

Challenge ACCEPTED. Ps. Kudos for using a B in 23 gif +1 Hehe, I was watching the June's Jams/Beek Jeans episode while I was waiting for someone else to join this game, so I figured I'd base my GIFs on them.  No one can resist my hot hot jam. |

I soooo feel your pain. I too ride in that boat. Me three. And Lamson makes 4, I believe. We are officially the Losers, with a capital L, of the Whodunnits. But if we keep sticking with it, eventually we'll get it right, won't we? ...Won't we? P.S. Congrats, Ciano..????. The rest of us aren't bitter at all. We'll just be huddled on the floor in a corner at Moe's, rocking slowly and slamming our foreheads against the wall. |

But if we keep sticking with it, eventually we'll get it right, won't we? ...Won't we? Knowing you are here with me, I feel a little better already.  And, that is what I am hoping... As the players slowly narrow down it perhaps puts us closer to winning. Some day, maybe... Eventually... Please sweeybabyjebus!  |
