Who killed Harambey180? GAME OVER Iconeum won!

Harambey180 · Post Post #0 (isolation #0) » Fri Feb 23, 2018 6:19 am

Hey everyone!

This is my version of UCV's game.
So how does this game work?
It's very simple: someone killed me, and you have to find out who did it! Could be me, could be you, could be anyone. Obviously, you should ask me questions about the identity of the murderer to get a better indication of who it could be. No information will be given that singles out the murderer, though, and I will make sure not to give such information. Everyone can join in at any time, when someone guessed the murderer correctly it's over though. Until we're at page two, I won't count any guesses to prevent this game from finishing early on. Most importantly, have fun! (That's what games are all about!)

Here's the first information I give about the murderer: It's a member of this site! That means all real life celebrities and sportsmen are already known to not be it.

You can ask questions now, and when we reach page two, you can guess who the murderer is!

Iconeum IS THE WINNER! He correctly guessed himself as the murderer!

Possibly. Maybe yes, maybe no.

note: I will not answer all questions. I will give hints regularly but not all the time, so some questions - like this one - have answers like these. Other questions will have straightforward answers though

The difference between the number of vowels and the number of consonants in their name is no bigger than 2.

In post 5, MarioManiac4 wrote:Is the user active on sitechat?

Depends on what you call active, but my murderer has been on the sitechat.

In post 8, UC Voyager wrote:Hmm. Where did the murder take place

On the forum.

You can't guess the murderer until we are at page two.
You could be it. You could also not be it.

I don't remember that good, but the murderer wasn't so talkative, so the murderer can't have made more than 10000 posts.

do you know if they have any alts?

Murderer is also a job, thus not on a weekend day.

And no, I don't know.

Was it suicide

What was used to murder you

Time of death?

I looked up, and September 22, 2017 was a Friday.

I can't allow guesses right now, but it's most likely not me. Like, a 99.995% chance it's not suicide!

I would remember, but I couldn't see the object.

Noon, or to be more precise, not after noon.

It seems that the answer is 'no'. So yeah, no.

I'd assume not so.

Confirming: Nope.

P.S. I got some criticism regarding that I'm not doing a good job at moderating this game. For those people, do realize that this is the first game I am moderating, I try my hardest to do it the right way and I do what feels right. Besides, if you are not part of this game, then please do not out your criticism if this game is from no importance to you. Thanks to all for your understanding. I have problems with handling being a moderator AND with getting criticism...

Also I do take the advice for granted, I will think harder about how to answer questions from now on, because some answers weren't ideal.

Harambey180 · Post Post #21 (isolation #8) » Sat Feb 24, 2018 5:33 am

I am still dead and my murderer is still alive. Or maybe the murderer is also dead. You must catch the murderer anyways!

No. Not near the United States, at least.

This game started recently, I got murdered recently. My murderer didn't disappear.

Also, you can now guess who my murderer might be!

No. It 'wa' not annadog. It could be Annadog40 though. (But no, it's not Annadog40)

My God, you think the mod committed suicide?

Is the murderer active in Mish Mash?

If you mean by that: hosting a Mish Mash game, the answer is no.
If you mean by that: participating in a Mish Mash game, the answer is yes.

In post 29, McMenno wrote:were they in supp 2017?

Umm, so I didn't know what SUPP was so I had to look it up. Apparently it's a popularity poll for speakeasy users. As I'm not in the speakeasy myself, I can't be 100% sure, but I'd guess not so. I really have no idea who were all in the SUPP 2017 though, so if it were a lot of people then it could also be yes.

if so this game is fake, I do not plan to kill you until next week

I hope you're glad that this game isn't fake!

Only 11 users have posted in this thread, and there are 21086 users on this site. There's only a 0.05% chance that the murderer has also posted in this thread.
You can assume that my murderer did not post in this thread yet.

In post 41, Iconeum wrote:It is a real guess.

WE HAVE A WINNER!

Lmao, the murderer just correctly guessed himself to be the murderer. This might be the dumbest criminal I've come across so far

More on this coming soon.

But first of all: How did you find out it was you?

Harambey180 · Post Post #44 (isolation #17) » Sun Feb 25, 2018 6:18 am

Well, Iconeum isn't responding soon I guess.

Anyways, here are some clues. Iconeum himself probably found these too, maybe not, but I'm going to give the clues already anyways.

Alright, so my very first post immediately had a clue in it. A pretty obvious one. Here, take a look, when you read the first letters of each sentence in the rules, you get this:

This is the other 'big' clue I gave:

ms that the answer is 'no'. So yeah, no.

Confir
m
ing: Nope.

When you take the first letter of the first sentence, the second letter of the second one, and so on, it also spells out 'I C O N E U M'.

Fun fact: I was about to do it again starting at post 37, after I said 'Wanna know who it is?', I planned on starting each of the next 7 posts with the letter of Iconeum. But Iconeum guessed it, so that didn't succeed quite well...

Smaller clues were hidden in the answers to the questions, like the 'when did the murder take place' answer 'before noon'. Ico joined the site at around 8 am EST (but he's from the Netherlands, so that's actually not true). And regarding the SUPP question, well I'm not in the speakeasy, but the SUPP 2017 - unsurprisingly - happened in 2017 whereas Iconeum joined the site in 2018. So I knew the answer was 'no'.

So that's it! Thank you everyone who tried to guess the murderer. Ico correctly guessed himself, which is pretty much the same as what happened in UCV's game where vonflare was the murderer. But vonflare guessed that in like post #4 and it didn't count...
