Quote: System Message: Fri Aug 06, 2004 - 2:34 am Gaia Standard Time We regret to inform you that Lanzer, creater of Gaia and all-around nice guy, was mysteriously attacked last night while he was working on coding a new database server. At the present time, we have no idea where or how this heinous crime was committed, but we do have several promising leads: As far as we know, the attack may have happened in any of the four maps: Barton, Durem, Gambino, or West Field The following Gaia NPC's are under suspicion: Gino Gambino, Ian, Johnny Gambino, Ruby, Rufus, and Sasha. Finally, the following dangerous objects have been confiscated: A Server Error, A Blue Giftbox, A Halo, Jack, and The Rockpuppy
We call upon you, the citizens of Gaia, to investigate this crime and find out what really happened. Anyone providing us with information leading to a successful arrest will recieve a handsome reward. --The Powers That Be
Celes> As soon as you've made your accusation, Johnny Gambino pales and makes a break for a door. "Ha!" he shouts, "You'll never prove it! I have... powerful friends. It's not like I was working alo-" With a sudden crash, an elite mod strike force bursts through the window. Within moments, they have Gambino in chains, and are leading him away to face justice.
 
system message Our thanks go out to you, citizen Celes Star. With your help, Johnny Gambino's reign of terror has ended. As a show of our appreciation, we are offering you your choice of: the sum of 1,000 gold... or... the mystery box. In the words of Peter Griffin, "A boat is just a boat, but the mystery box could be anything! It could even be a boat!" Furthermore, we would like to thank everyone wh0 h3l111j03- -#33.502--{signal lost}
unknown I knew I shouldn't have trusted that fool Gambino with something this important. No matter -- he was expendable.. I have plenty of other henchmen to do my bidding. You'll never be able to find all of them. Mua-ha-ha-*cough* *ahem* Carry on.
system message It seems that the criminal network we've uncovered is more extensive than originally thought. Therefore, we urge all citizens to continue reporting suspicious behavior in this thread.
(a.k.a. ya' get ta' keep guessin'!) wink
The Rules: If you choose to play, you are invited to donate 100g. to the guild account, although this is not mandatory. Once per day, you may investigate a lead by posting your guess in this thread. For example: "I think it was Ian, in Barton Town, with the Halo." You are welcome and encouraged to use the provided images to illustrate your guesses. (see below) Please do not guess more than once every 12 hours, as that makes it unfair for everyone else, and harder for me to update. There will be a prize(s) for the correct guess(es), which will be worth more than 100g. But saying anything more than that would spoil the surprise. whee
Legal disclaimer: In no way does this contest support or condone violence of any kind, especially against our beloved Admins. It is based loosely on the game Clue, which has delighted and entertained the public for many years. My hope is that since the admins made the Kill Lanzer item set, they won't get mad at me for doing this. All characters and images © Copyright 2004 Gaia Interactive. Communism was just a red herring.

Right, well, that should do it, I think. I hope all those images work. The server's acting a little... weird. Hopefully it's just my connection...

The guessing setup looks oddly familiar, but even better. xd
The images are quirky here, too. Sometimes they do not show.
Hmm... Poor Lanzer.
 I think that the crime took place in Durëm and was commited by Rufus with the Blue Giftbox. The cat is always taunting us with the nonexistent secret store discount. ninja

Ian, Ruby, and Sasha all had shady dealings with Jack so they could get all of that candy... Hmm... confused Most of the suspects are in Gambino... but Lanzer might have been somewhere else. Anyway, forget all of that: Place that needs a good server: Gambino (the bank) Unsuspected suspect: Rufus Deadliest weapon: Server Error   xd Anyway, that's my guess. I'm going to give a 100g now. domokun

I'll guess too! xd  The Place took place in Durem and the Culprit was Sasha who used a Blue Giftbox to hide away a bomb, that she stored in her store for a long time, specifically for Lanzer.

Hmm. I think the images are being funky because of tinyurl. I'll try switching them back to the full url and see if that helps.
Chibigreen> whee
everybody> Sasha and Rufus loudly proclaim their innocence, saying they would never do anything to Lanzer. Then they get all huffy and leave in a hurry. No arrests were made.

My guess:    He's never quite forgave Lancer for not paying for the damage that was done to his Gazaebo during the party ninja
