FINE. :P But you wouldn't really swat a little ladybug would you? ;)

In seriousness...I bet y'all are smashing it! Lots of crazy stuff to look into for sure.

Of course I wouldn't swat a ladybug! If it were any other insect.....

We got some stuff happening, guess it will all come together with whatever is next :)

Take care of you first always ❤️

Inappropriate for the site is where my brain lives okay?

It is very worthy research that Fresh Out of Legends is involved in. We have focused in on a clue and the reason behind it and are going at it like a cat in heat.

I am ready to hide another body if need be.

SERIOUSLY!! I did not kill Mr. Body in the Conservatory with the Candlestick. Ms. Scarlett did it!!!

We need more research files!!! Stat!

I.....got lost in a never-ending google image search. I cannot research because shirtless dudes.

Be careful of the words you use to search. Somethings can not be unseen. shudders

I mostly stick to safe ones....like actors' names and the word "shirtless" xD

Thank you all for your caring and patience!

All clues have been sent out to teams. If your captain did not receive the smail, let me know ASAP! Scores should be up later tonight, and you will have to decide if you want to spend some clue points.

Every clue was investigated by one team or another, and there should be enough information in your answers to help you solve the mystery. Almost at the end now; are you ready?

received , thanks!

the answers to our questions are in SL :)

Heya! I never received a sMail for the Chimeriad's. c: Did you by chance send it to someone else on the team? (Just wanted to check cause nobody on my team posted anything)

Just had to butt in, there a shop in England called cex, try googling THAT!!

All of you remaining in the event solved the cryptograms, and entered a Francine HA, and nine teams solved the mystery of Ruby Roman. Clue points are being awarded for those. In addition, the judges liked several of the Francine entries, especially the ones that integrated the antlers well with the idea of a posh hotel and a business atmosphere without hiding them. They agreed that a traditional approach during a grape festival and auction was the best way to go. (They weren't crazy about my twisted antler wreath, just so you know...)

Meddlesome Madams

Cosmic Sleuths

Fresh Out of Legends

Chimeriad

Golden Trio

Each of these teams received two extra clues.

Your scores have been updated on the Roster thread, but here's a quick rundown of what you have to spend or save.

Chemeriad: 13 Cosmic Sleuths: 9 Fresh Out of Legends: 11 Golden Trio: 13 Meddlesome Madams: 11 Midnight: 13 The PIs: 10 Three Furies: 10 Travelers: 10 Webby's Watsons: 8 Whovians: 10

Remember: You do not have to spend anything to win, and you cannot win on clue redemption if another team has a more correct solution. You can boost your scores a bit, though, or grab that one needed clue if you are stuck.

Your rank will depend on how well you solve the mystery, and all its parts!

The judges loved our Francine! And our points total is 11 at this time. :)

.. maybe I am missing it entirely but can't find the points per questions just in case we wish to add another or two. Where are they?

It's in Needful Nutsy News--Covetous Guest; third post down

I'll repost here though, for ease:

Thanks ... just saw this today after searching, remember I wasn't getting pings at one point. I now have that link too :)

: Are you a member of the Midnight Lamp group? Were you there for the Murder Mystery Masquerade or did you join later?

No, I'm not, Hun. Never have been.

WOOHOO! Good job, team! I loved our francine too. She was so pretty! <3

Congrats teams, good job and your HAs look mighty fine. :)
