More questions than ideas, really, but yeah...

Will the murderer use the same weapon every time? A different one every time? A theme of one with fun exceptions?

Does the murderer know that they're the murderer?

Why is the murderer killing people? 

What will the connection be? What sprang to my mind was the murderer being implicated in the faked death, or assisting in the faking of the death, or believing that it wasn't a fake death and perhaps even that they were its cause. Or perhaps the connected host faked their own death in an attempt to get away from the murderer.

I wouldn't mind being the one who's in the dark about it, unless you'd like to.

Woodsy... so like a cabin/camping thing, or a hiking trip, or...?

Would it be okay to do the update schedule the way Alizarine and I did, with each of us posting a full day update thingy every other day?

How many guests should we accept? 

What happens at the end? Does the murderer get caught, or do they kill everyone? Do they kill the unsuspecting host? 

Does the unsuspecting host ever catch on? 

Who do we kill if nobody tries to guess us? 

All right, so. 

What does the murderer think they're being hired for, and how far do they get before they have their realization? What triggers it?

Why is the host trying to kill everyone? 

Okay, so a forested, mountainous area. Do you want this to be a hiking trip? That's unconventional but appealing. The only trouble I can think of is how to stop people running off. Maybe it's a very isolated area and the chances of making it back to civilization on one's own are slim? But surely a few people will have enough faith in their abilities to try it anyway. Maybe they die and that scares the others into not attempting the same thing. Maybe they're the strongest and bravest and stuff, and maybe the murderer is among them, perhaps a ringleader of sorts. It would be kind of like the beginning of And Then There Were None, if you've read that. Should it be where the faked death happens? Early on, the first deaths... or death, singular. Oh, and naturally I'd imagine there would be one scene where everyone but the group who struck out on their own are telling scary stories around the campfire, and then suddenly, at the perfect moment, there's a scream from one of the dying or fake-dying off in the distance (piercing the night, as clear and sharp as the crescent moon, driving a chill of terror into the hearts of even the most stolid and/or foolhardy of campers).

Cool, so every day, trading off. I might be more likely to post in the evenings, though, I don't know if that'd give you enough time...?

Want to split the difference and make it 20? That'd make it the invitation post, the 20 days of murders (if we're going by one per day), and I imagine the final confrontation and forgiveness would take place on the same day as the last murder, right? How's that?

That sounds good.

Yeah, I entered myself in the ski lodge I did with Alizarine, and it was cool, although it was also awkward having two of the same person running around... 

Also, AEs are going to count as guests, right? And what wonderfully terrible fate shall we have befall anyone who doesn't fill out their sheets in time? We should maybe get working on the murder weapons in general. I'm thinking a tent pole/peg for one, fire might not be a viable option but drowning certainly is, and of course there's always a good old hit over the head with a rock. And how does the murderer/host keep from being suspected/caught? Why doesn't the murderhost kill the unsuspecting host?
