Clue

I really hope that helps, SS.

SneakySnake · 11-14-2010, 11:20 PM

Thanks folks. The blue clue is always of help, but Tim Curry will always win me over!

Sent now. Did you get it? I hope it doesn't spend too long in cyberspace. 40 minutes to go??

bpugliese · 11-15-2010, 02:37 AM

Aww c'mon, i wanna know what happened. Post the last episode and the correct name of the murderer!!!

LCF · 11-15-2010, 02:45 AM

soo, who did you choose and why?

@murderator team: we can speek freely now, can't we?

SneakySnake · 11-15-2010, 02:53 AM

I think they have all gone to bed. I too am waiting for some answers, hopefully when they all wake up someone (pooh) will tell us.

The most important questions are... Did you get my entry? And When do I get all the prizes?

LCF · 11-15-2010, 03:10 AM

You have a point. It's around 9 a.m. here, which makes it sleeping tome in USA, and definitely sleeping tome for Zelda...

SS, who did you choose?!?! (PM, until we have green permission?)

I also anticipate finding out if my surmise as to the identity of the killer is correct or not. Would be great to win a Kindle.

AdamV · 11-15-2010, 06:14 AM

I must admit it was a double challenge for myself: a mistery and the language...

While I can easly read a regular fiction books in my non native language - english, I found it to be rather difficult in case of the contest's What The Butler Saw text... Too many clues were unclear, too many of the "clues" are possible just funny inserts so those confused me even more than a storyline...

Anyway, I just gave my best guess yet I have the feeling I am wrong with that and I will regret the time spent for "solving" the mistery since I believe I missed or misunderstood many things there...

So a request from mine

Next time, use simpler english and more complex story

Same here. So many words I have never heard before... and so many suspects...

I was/am totally confused

Probably overestimated my capabilites when I thought I might be able to solve this

Sweetpea · 11-15-2010, 07:45 AM

Well, the solution is simple!

Which moderator is least to trust?

Well?

Naturally the one that all other moderators (except the dead one) enjoyed eating!

Pooh did it!

WT Sharpe · 11-15-2010, 08:55 AM

I feel very confident about my solution. Just like I did when I submitted my entry for the last contest.

Of course, last time, I got it wrong!

mrscoach · 11-15-2010, 10:27 AM

I've been working too much lately, and had other things to do as well, so I didn't get to read the story through again like I wanted. I made a blind guess.

I don't figure I have a chance, but if I didn't enter I definitely wouldn't have a chance. So I thought "Why not?"

Not fair at all!

The question was, who is the murderer. No mention about WHOSE murderer. I could just as well say Jack the Ripper and be correct, but I was kind enough to find a victim from within the story. And now you say I have to ignore him? Why? Poor cabbie, not even chickens care about you!

Steven Lyle Jordan · 11-15-2010, 12:14 PM

Have... I... WON yet?!?

No. The chicken threw your entry out because you bugged him so much.

You should have tried being nice, like I was.
