Three down, how many more to go?

First it was angelika_blue, then biancaquan, and now cracker_jack - but why murder these members of the community? What could this mean?

this might not help too much-but i looked up "gogo", the closest thing i could find was something about a russian novelist named nikolai gogol, born in ukraine. he wrote a lot about the supernatrual.

Again, not sure if that will help at all, but still, it's something.

So I've only just now started participating in this interactive murder mystery... was so afraid the clue wasn't up anymore, but it is - so for the rest of you starting from scratch, have no fear!

And yes, the "box" description was confusing, but Miss Quinn meant it to be helpful... just realize you are looking for a text link, and the way you will know you've found the correct link is that it will take you to a page with the box Miss Quinn described.

Also, heed the tip someone gave to NOT look in the shop! Info about books/stories are located elsewhere in the site besides there!

Happy exploring! If you think about it, and heed these tips, it really shouldn't take you long... it took me about 20 minutes, and that's only because I was stuck looking in the shop. So definitely heed that tip, and yes... pay attention and keep your eyes peeled. Read carefully!!

Can you see a pattern? Then work it out in your mind and have a loo kwhere you think it might be.

hellbaby 04 Jun 10 at 9:27 p.m. GMT

Thank heaven I have at long last found this clue.  I am however slightly narked that people leave red herrings here as clues but I guess it is to be expected.  I have spent over 2 weeks looking for a red & black box to appear on a page to find this first clue.  What a waste of time!

hellbaby-avatar
hellbaby 04 Jun 10 at 8:22 p.m. GMT

Just wondering if any others haven't found it.  Over 2 weeks for me looking now & still can't see this first clue.  I saw the hint at the beginning about the red & black box but haven't seen one of those anywhere.  I thought it had something to do with ABC Murders but the only way you can find anything to do with ABC Murders is to go to the shop & bring up the books.  There are no coffee mugs or deckchairs or games with this title so I just don't understand where else to go.  My only concern is it may be on the timeline & I have a problem getting this up with my old computer.  Is there someway you can let me know if it is the timeline so I know to give up looking?

I hope you don't mind that I brought this up. I just thought it could be useful to us who haven't found the first clue yet... in case someone missed it, at least I don't always have the patience to read all earlier posts

I hope it is so my work won't be totally wasted If it is, then it's going to mean a LOT of thinking for me... I've already tried to think some possibilities and I actually joined just because of this mystery, so thank you very much for it

Well now I'll go and try to find it. Aww I love mysteries, I just hope I'd be better solving them... Anyway if somebody who knows what he first clue is could check out if it's still up and tell us?

If you haven't found it yet just keep trying, don't give up!!!!! Good Luck!

@Thracias: The first three names leads you to the first clue and the fourth name leads you to the second, but HeiseiHolmes and m_hercule_poirot_2 are members of the community who are taking part in the game (just like us!) who are getting too close to the identity of the murderer that they have to be killed! You can read back all the comments in the forum!

Do you mean up there with all the faces? I saw Bags appear more than once too. I also though under our noses could mean: under the noses of all the characters above but I don't think so. Then I also though it could be were the book ABC Murders is but also found nothing. I don't know.

What do you think about colours? Where could we find those colours?

Excellent theorising na_well - perhaps you've actually found the clue, or come across it rather, but need to sharpen your eyes to actually 'see' it!

I have been looking for the clue on and off for the past couple of days and I can't find it either. Maybe it is time to give up. I looked everywhere trying to reason where it could be but I haven't had luck yet.

If it is a play of words or something like that I am missing it and it may be due to the fact that my native language is Spanish and my English isn't THAT good. And if it has something to do with Christie's novels, well, I haven't read them all so I don't know.

I have tried using order and method, now I think I will try imagination and random word association. To those who have or have not found the clue, do you think my limited knowledge of the novels is holding me back. Is there something which is obvious to people who have spent more time on the books and more time reading the novels?

Or is it just a matter of checking everywhere one at a time?

Have you noticed that the image of the gravestone which has RIP on it is written like this: R.I.P (withouth the last dot). I know this may be just a mistake with no meaning at all. Maybe I am looking into something when it doesn't mean anything at all just a silly mistake.

I haven't found the clue yet but I am still looking!

Agathasmykid-avatar
Agathasmykid 10 May 10 at 9:15 p.m. GMT

It is so tempting to give a hint, however that is against the rules I think.  Like I said in another post, people should share their theories, and where they have looked, people may have more luck if they try it together.

As it occurs in several Christie books, you may want to make a list of theories from what has been written so far, and then start crossing places you have looked off.

TheButlerDidIT-avatar

student_dylan 10 May 10 at 6:45 p.m. GMT

Thank you MissQuin for forwarding that! I'd forgotten the details, and after reading them i believe that this mystery and the identity of our murderer has nothing to do with any of the novels/short stories etc.

I'm impatient now for more clues so we can exercise our little gray cells... more murder and mayhem soon, please! I'm sure the clues and hints will become increasingly challenging but not impossible, I hope!

A question:

When the second murder was announced there was information given about a clairvoyant, the victim's cousins, cat shelter etc. This information seems to have disappeared. I was just wondering if that information will be important in solving the mystery/identity of the murderer, or is it unimportant and we can forget about it?

It's under the other post, I brought it forward for you..

Agathasmykid-avatar
Agathasmykid 10 May 10 at 6:16 p.m. GMT

Great news, I found it too!  It took me about three hours.  It certainly does seem obvious now that I have found it.  As others have said, pay very careful attention.  It seems I too had the right idea right off the bat, however I did not concentrate enough.  I obviously can't give any hints, so all I will suggest is to do what I did;  read over all of the information again and trust your instincts.

student_dylan-avatar
student_dylan 10 May 10 at 6:16 p.m. GMT

It's interesting to speculate if the murderer will be a character from one of AC's books, or if this mystery is completely independent of the books and the clairvoyant/cousins/ cat shelter(!) are part of the narrative of this mystery, of which more is yet to be revealed.

I'm personally hoping that it's a completely newly created mystery and the murderer a character we've not encountered before.

But if the murderer is from the Christie books do we need only concern ourselves with those characters Marple and Poirot unveiled as murderers, or are all of her characters suspects and the possible murderer of angelika_blue and the other two so far? Because that's an awful lot of suspects! And what about the characters in the short stories and plays - could they potential murderers too?

Marcia96-avatar
Marcia96 10 May 10 at 6:06 p.m. GMT

well dont know, it might be important because at least we have someone to suspect but it might also be unimportant because we are not quite sure that the information that was given was true.

I found it!

It took me 3 hours and I was beginning to get very frustrated indeed, but now that i've solved it I'm glad I persevered. It really tickled my interest when I came across this new mystery game on the website, so I'd just like to thank AGATHACHRISTIE.COM for coming up with the idea and allowing me to become a detective!

Some encouragement for those who have yet to find the clue: I had the right idea almost imediately because all the information really is there (right under our noses as has been mentioned by the moderater) but it took me such a long time because I wasn't paying quite close enough attention as I needed to. You really do need to keep your eyes peeled and pay careful attention! So good luck, and I can't wait for more clues. I supposes it's awful wishing for someone else to be bumped off soon?

One of the challenges here is that not many people seem to be sharing ideas (I am referring of course to the people that haven't found it yet), maybe if people throw out some theories we could work to find it together?

Also, as others have asked, does it matter which version of the site you are on?

to missquin,

1.if you were looking for more than 8 hours you were mad too!

2. i'm sorry that i shout but it's so annoying.

3. next time someone find it plese stop say ï found it!"

1. I'd never get so worked up over a mystery game, it's supposed to be  fun!

2. I'm glad your sorry that you were yelling at people to shut up.

3. Part of the game is telling others you found it. It's part of the fun and if everyone kept quiet, we wouldn't be sharing our pleasure with others. That would be very boring! So I think that if someone finds the clue, then they are welcome to say so.

What if on the next go, no-one found the clue? It's highly unlikely, but just imagine it. Then the forum moderators wouldn't know no one had found it, if people can't say they have.

I think this is stupid, I would much rather it was a case of finding word clues and fact clues but not something like find a stupid little box with a message.

Mr_west 07 May 10 at 7:39 p.m. GMT

5 hours Mr West! I think you are winning. I think I will cook dinner to realign my brain and then search afresh. I have re read all the posts on the first murder but it has not really helped so far

Surprisingly easy to find... It's very obvious once you know where to look.

Why so modest Go leafs?! We all think differently, so what's easy for some isn't easy for others.

GKC whay! I'm pleased you found it because you sounded so frustrated that I wanted to help you but couldn't.

No! I feel so stupid. Darn it I will keep clicking on everything :-(

SUCCESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I had to use my knowledge of what's occurred, but I found it, although I didn't know for sure what I was to look for at first.  I wonder if other clues have been released already.  It looks like speed isn't a factor, so I have plenty of time to mull over the hint...

This is my first post here, I am now hooked on trying to find a clue to this murder! Very exciting.

Keep looking, don't give up hope.  I hope your enjoying yourself? this is meant to be fun!

GKCfan 07 May 10 at 4:46 p.m. GMT

Nope... not a trace... this is starting to get out of hand... I'm compulsively searching every page with as much order and method as possible...

MissQuin-avatar
MissQuin 07 May 10 at 4:39 p.m. GMT

Have you found it yet GKC?

MissQuin-avatar
MissQuin 07 May 10 at 4:16 p.m. GMT

You can't reveal the contents anyway! Or give clues...

The clue can't be too hard to find since you found it in fifteen minutes, but I haven't come up with anything yet...

MissQuin-avatar
MissQuin 07 May 10 at 4:09 p.m. GMT

Yes, it's a very creepy cover. Rather more sinister than the story is actually. It's clever the way theyv'e used that headstone for the names.

I love this murder mystery, it's great fun! I'd love to find all the clues, so I won't tell a soul now.

GKCfan-avatar
GKCfan 07 May 10 at 4:07 p.m. GMT

O.K., O.K....   But now it looks like we have to search EVERY PAGE OF THE WEBSITE REPEATEDLY in order to find the clues...

Has anyone else noticed that the graveyard image that announces the killed victims is taken from a new cover of The Murder at the Vicarage?

MissQuin-avatar
MissQuin 07 May 10 at 3:59 p.m. GMT

(Tears of gag) well..... I'm not sure how to give a hint as it might be too easy for you all. I will see if someone else finds it by tonight (but if they do they shoudn't reveal the contents!) If not then I will give a little hint to point you in the right direction.

I'm too nice, I should keep it to myself!

Yes it's hidden on the website. The little box had the mystery figure in black, against a red background. It said keep it secret, so I will. Anyway I would love to solve it myself anyway!

Mr_west-avatar
Mr_west 07 May 10 at 3:41 p.m. GMT

it's in the website?

MissQuin-avatar
MissQuin 07 May 10 at 3:33 p.m. GMT

Ive found it! I found the clue in a red and black box! But I'm afraid I'm going to have to keep it a secret! The message told me to keep quiet, so I will. Of course I'll probably be killed now!

GKCfan-avatar
GKCfan 07 May 10 at 3:31 p.m. GMT

I can't find any evidence for cracker_jack's existence yet! The internet web searches I used for angelika_blue and biancaquan have turned up nothing!  There is someone named cracker_jack who has posted on several other websites, but I can find no evidence whatsoever of cracker_jack's presence on this board.

And what does Moderator 2 mean by clues being right under our noses?  We're also being told to explore the website... Could the clues we've been seeking be hidden throughout the website?

GKCfan-avatar
GKCfan 07 May 10 at 3:19 p.m. GMT

Well, the alphabetical pattern still holds... I'm not so sure about the color pattern now.  "Cracker" is a derogatory slang term for "white," so I guess the color pattern still holds, too. 

Note that all of the victims have names in their names... Angelika, Bianca, Jack... Is there a pattern there?

MissQuin-avatar
MissQuin 07 May 10 at 3:18 p.m. GMT

Cracker_jack.. that blows out my colour theaory, but it is alphabetical. I'm off to hunt around!
