So, so, so.

I'd like to aim for Saturday, May 16th late morning, early afternoon EST (which sort of accommodates everyone) for our next plotchat. Let me know if this will be an issue; I'll try to remind everyone as we draw closer.

Things I'd like to discuss in this chat: summer plot lines, any big ideas you have for the game (summer or otherwise), and the potential for a murder mystery.

Some ideas that we've stormed for the murder mystery (which *could* be relatively easy to set up):

1. The murder victim is an NPC. Everyone may have a week or so to play with this NPC to establish relationships and motives.
2. Anyone who wants to volunteer a character to be the murderer will be put in a hat and drawn at random. In addition, if someone would like to volunteer additional characters to become casualties they'd be drawn randomly as well (since some of us sort of enjoy offing our characters); this could become a serial thing, or a "someone was snooping too much" thing.
3. It may take place on Isla Partei, potentially during some sort of event (like a cross dressing ball, or a masquerade (we love those) which would make identifying a murderer more difficult).
4. Clues would be given out at random, maybe on some sort of merit system. Whoever figures it out (and can do so in character) would get some sort of prize.
5. The murderer may or may not be caught (depends on how the volunteer would like to play it).

So please, continue to storm away and gather up some ideas for our next chat. I'm really looking forward to getting back into playing mode.
