Re: Wink Murder 4

I'am conveniently trying to make my company some money at the moment and thus cannot help.

Re: Wink Murder 4

This game looks like fun. But what are the rules? I just came to this site today. Are there pictures from this game  posted somewhere?

Re: Wink Murder 4

The rules should be around here somewhere...

Found them!

The way I do it with my friends is that everyone writes down their email address and posts it (or if the forum enables PMs, you PM instead to everybody playing). The person in charge emails (or PMs) one person and tells them they are the murderer. The murderer then s-l-o-w-l-y kills people, most of the time it is once a day, by emailing them to tell them they're dead. They then state they're dead by writing a piece of prose, or roleplay, or whatever, and posting it.
The remaining people have to quickly guess who the murderer is, with one guess per game, the person in charge cannot guess since they already know who the murderer is, and the murderer can guess so he/she will not give away the fact that he/she is the murderer.

The pictures are 'image awards', which appear on the left of every post that you do and tell everyone whether you are alive or dead. The pictures aren't up at the moment because there isn't a game on right now.

They look like this:

Why did the vector cross the road?
It wanted to be normal.

Re: Wink Murder 4

Thanks for telling me about the game. Its easier than I thought. I thought I had to post a picture of me dead to go with the dramatic death scene description if I get murdered! And then I thought, hmmm where do I get fake blood? That would be fun.

Anyway when is the next game?

Re: Wink Murder 4

We'll start the next game whenever anybody decides to start a new game (I can if nobody wants to, but I would like to play this time).

If you would like to join, we'll tell you or post when the next game will start. Hopefully, that will be soon. To play you will need a working email address that you have access to every day - so you can check to see if you are murdered.

Oh, and should we start a new thread for Wink Murder 5? Or just continue with this one?
