Spectrum 4 (Aka another murder game)
Another season of Spectrum has come and gone. You know what this means! Probably not though. It isn't like an iconic game yet, but... we're getting there!
If you are still unfamiliar with Spectrum, I'm just gonna give you the link to a page where the 2 paragraphs of rules are posted: http://www.cricketmagkids.com/chatterbox/inkwell/node/347508
If you didn't figure it out yet, this a thread for a new Murder Game! Again, the link explains everything. However, if you still have questions, feel free to ask anything!
Once again, all you need to do to enter is just post saying that you want to! Once all 6 spots fill up, I'll post our new cast of characters (or colors, more accurately) along with your items, and your scenario. Cockleburr, Tuxedo, and Kitten, if you're still here, please say so! If not, I'm probably eventually gonna have to give your spots away. Anyway, anybody is still welcome to join! We cleared some confusion up last game, so hopefully this game will be more fun!

Orange-Catsclaw
Yellow-Tuxedo Kitten
Green-Aspen
Blue-Leeli
Purple-Allie
The SS Kuolema, an old Finnish screw steamer, is being sent out on it's last voyage. The Captain, Timo Anttoni, has decided to retire the vessel, but not without a little bit of action. The ancient design of the vessel will soon fail to pass modern requirements, so Captain Anttoni has opened its decks for one last farewell party, free of charge. The ship quickly fills up with enthusiastic locals, but a few first-timers on the Kuolema climb aboard unnoticed.
As the ship sets sail in the Gulf of Bothnia, a celebration roars to life. Drinks are poured, lanterns lit, and plenty of songs are sung, no matter how poorly. The Kuolema starts to stop at different towns along the west coast, dropping off the tired, drunken townspeople, and picking up new ones. As the ship climbs north, the crowds eventually thins. The party finally dwindles down to 6 of the aforementioned first-timers. Bright-eyed and eager to see the world, the travelers would never miss a free trip along the Finnish coast.
The ship abruptly grinds to a halt, nowhere even near a possible stop. The 6 check the wheel, only to find the Captain oddly absent. They then check the engine room, and are met with an awful sight. The engine had been sabatoged, as well as jammed with the body of Timo Anttoni.
Upon removing the body, the travelers find that the method of the murder was in fact not by steam engine, but by something much more deliberate. The 6, horrified, can find nobody left on the ship but themselves. As a horrible dread and horror hangs over the stranded ship, what else can the people do but suspect each other?
Hidden around the vessel, you find 9 possible clues:
Needle
Concrete Brick
Razor
Poisonous Flowers
Rubber Mallet
Pitchfork
Clarinet
Beer Mug
Drill
An eerie fog surrounds the SS Kuolema, as the investigation commences! (You can start posting now!)
