Good luck everyone!
I'm also waiting to see if maybe, just maybe I picked the right one. Probably I'll have chosen the equivalent of 'the butler did it' but who knows.

But ... but .... but .... the butler was in the last Mystery!

This mystery had a maid/cook/housekeeper!

[We present a politically correct murder mystery!]

I don't have a clue as to who the murderer is.

Rereading the story now, but I fear the best I can hope for is to make a lucky guess...

It has been fun though (sorry, dead mods ).

Strange, the more I read about people just guessing the more I start to question my own complete logical and reasonable solution and find gaping holes in it that surely haven't been there at the time I made my vote on the murder.

The good thing is, I still have no idea how to solve the remaining riddles (like open library doors), so probably they are just red herrings to muddy the waters (as if they were not muddy enough)

Heheheh, sometimes I kill myself! Or was that dreams...

I'm still trying to process all the information and mull it over while I still have a few hours.

There is one obvious suspect with an obvious motive, but then there are two other surreptitiously suspicious suspects that I can figure out motives and how-tos for as well. I'm assuming it was only one person whodunit, and I think it will be very fowl indeed if it turns out to be a two- or three- mod job!

Finally submitted my solution as well. I think I can explain the doors (both the library door and the front door), as well as all the deaths and the times for the deaths, but I do think that it is the obvious solution that I have come to, and that Agatha has a double-twist up her sleeve ... er ... wing ... er ... you understand what I mean ... do you understand what I mean?

Will all the different solutions be presented, á la in the film Clue, or will only the official solution be presented? Personally, I think it could be exciting to hear what wicked explanations were pondered from the story by other participants. Many might have seen clues that I missed completely

+1 on that! I was so sure! And now I'm, to say the least, completely unsure! Can the story have been rewritten in between then and now?

No, not seriously, but like Asawi and Troll wrote, the longer I read this thread here the more I become a little bit unsecure of my own solution. But now it is sent in and I'm looking forward to read the solution.

I knew I wouldn't be too sure of my solution so I just went for it...it's either right or wrong.

I do agree with iznogood about the different solutions being posted...it would be quite interesting...especially since everyone seems to have played their cards very close to the vest and haven't revealed much to each other.
