Scarlett takes a look around.

She see mrs White, and thinks why not:

Ballroom, White, Lead Pipe.


White can't disprove

I, Mr. Green, can't disprove either.

Correction to White's guess: I guessed the candlestick, not the wrench.


Thank you! That error would have totally screwed me up. I usually don't update my pad until the round updates.

And I use what I post too. Thanks. I edited my post. I should double check next time. I use a drop down box and wrench was one off.

The Colonel calls Dr. Brown over in a friendly way to help him search the conservatory for clues. They find the wrench, which seems out of place; Mustard turns on Doc, asking him his whereabouts at the time of the murder!

suggests Dr. Brown with the Wrench in the Conservatory

You're both welcome. I had to think a moment before I decided to speak up, but I like to keep it sportin'. :) IMO Wizard leads by example, soliciting corrections without ego, and miplet's also that type of person, so it felt almost like cheating NOT to point that out when he's trying to help the game.

I'm sure PGD is very proud of me. :D

White can disprove this. Sending PM. Also thinking about my turn.

So, I think I understand the rule, and expect to act accordingly, however I think this is the first this has come up.

I entered the Ballroom and made a guess.
Then Scarlet, who was pulled into the ballroom, named me. If I had been elsewhere, I would now have the right to make a guess on my turn without moving.
I think I still have to leave and either come back in, or go into another room, rather than having the right to guess because I got named, because I was already in the room. However, my question is: Could I make another guess (using the ballroom) instead of leaving?

Based on my best understanding of the rule above, Mrs. White leaves the Ballroom and goes to the entry of the Kitchen.

As I recall, going back decades, they way we played was that if you were named to a room you were already in, then you could not ask again from that spot your next turn.

I also checked the Clue rulebook. On page six it says that transferring somebody already in a room is "not necessary." It also says you may make a suggestion if you were just transferred into a room. So, I would argue that you were never transferred, and thus must move out of the room your next turn. Of course, this is a selfishly-motivated statement, so I welcome any counterargument.

However, you do get honesty points for the error confession.
