Well done Plum, all I knew is that I was guilty.

Winner!


Congratulations Miplet! I was next up and may have made an accusation depending on the response I got. It probably wouldn't have been a 100% certainty but often you have to ask yourself if you'll get another chance if you don't make one.

My cards, if anyone cares were the Dining Room, Billiard Room, and Library. I thought I had a good chance with three off-the-beaten-track rooms but, alas, you evidently figured out nobody had the Hall.

I was pretty sure Mr. Green did it. The only thing holding me back was I knew OD had either the Mr. Green or knife card.

The revolver would have been my best guess on the weapon but probably would have had reasonable doubt to not make an accusation. I couldn't rule out EB or Miplet having that card. Especially Miplet, I knew he had either the revolver or the conservatory.

The Hall would probably have been my best guess on the room. The only person I couldn't rule out having it was FrG.

Here is the new scoreboard. It seems to have become to wide to fit onto one table.

I had Plum, Wrench, and Conservatory. I was 100% after my suggestion. Here are the cards I was shown:
Cards shown to you:
Scarlet (dum) has Miss Scarlet
Scarlet (dum) has Kitchen
White (OD) has Rope
Peacock (og) has Mrs. Peacock

Pretend you were me. You should be able to solve this murder.

Dammit, Well done MIP. 100% so soon!
I'd identified the Killer as Green and knew all of Scarletts cards and most of Green's, and Plums,but I couldn't narrow down the room from any of the 5 side rooms,I think I was disadvantaged with having 3 murder weapons knife, candlestick and rope. and no rooms.

I had not deduced any of Mustard's cards. Is that a common issue, with him being the player before me?

Nice job, Miplet. How much of that last suggestion was a guess for you?

I had too many "or" situations, similar to the Wizard , which should worry him . From the way White is talking he is going to be a threat to win soon.

I had Mrs. Peacock card, Lead Pipe card, and Mrs. White card.

Ok, I just played it through as though I were you. I'm missing a trick if you accused on 100% deduction. Please help me understand.

Your last (inspired/lucky) suggestion released an absolute mass of data, but as far as I can see, it leaves the possibility that Green was in White's hand and Mustard could have been the murderer or with any of Scarlett, Mustard, White, Green.

Would anyone tell me what I missed?
Regards,
OD
