Dec. 15, 1805
Today I found dear ol' Jeeves dead by the fireplace downstairs. It's been only but 3 days since I've set foot in this house. Many mysterious things have been happening lately, and I don't know what or who has been making these odd occurances. Whatever it is, it won't let me out...
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You step outside and greet a wonderful Winter's morning. The snow had just fallen about an hour ago and hides the grass with its secure blanket. Beginning to feel chill, you hurry out to your mailbox to pick up today's mail.
"Bills... bills... Jury Duty... bills..." you think to yourself. "Great, another beautiful day ruined by the mail."
You come across an envelope marked only with your name. Getting the shivers, you race back inside to the warmth of your house. You set the mail on the counter, but keep the mysterious letter in your hand. As you sit down, you start to open the letter. It reads:
Dear Guest,
You've been invited to the Shadow's Mansion for a Christmas get together. Please, no gifts, just a simple get together to share the holiday spirit.
Come to the Shadow Mansion on December 15 at 5 o'clock sharp. No one likes a party pooper, so it's best that you will be coming!
Cheers,
Benjamin Shadow
You look at the letter confused. Who is this Benjamin Shadow person and how does he know who you are? Curious, you set the letter aside and write your December 15th plans down.
Each round you will get a Diary Entry with a small clue hidden within.
Mod: Benjamin Shadow
Boss: Mysterious Thing
Rat: Person amongst guests that aids the boss
Employees: Guests
If you want to play and you're not on my friend's list, just PM me

You have such a great story line already started. I love mysteries. And I hope to finally find a game that I might be able to get some longevity in. Last two werewolf games I was allowed in and was first one out on both of them. Kinda getting like the little kid who decided to take his baseball and bat and go home. They didn't even give me a turn at bat.
Ha ha! Yeah, what the heck, they are only games. Thanks for the invite. Hi empy and eflover4ever.
The sound of the wild, but if there is no one there, does anyone hear their howls?

Hi
Fine, Cameron, I'll tell you where the other typo is...
"Whatever it is,it won't"
You forgot to put a space after the comma.
Hey, I'm just trying to be helpful!!!

Ahhh...now there's a story
I had a cat named Missy, and she was FAT! She loved to eat and eat and eat and eat, and she would eat everything that you would give her. Anyway, she had really short legs, and so her body was round and fat on top of her short little legs (adorable, btw) she looked like a sausage! I decided that I wanted her to lose weight, and so I created the GET OFF YOUR SAUSAGE Weight Loss Program for Overweight Cats. ) I made business cards and Powerpoint presentations and I had a lot of fun with it. She never did seem to lose any weight, though About a year ago, Missy died: happy, fat, and still hungry for more food
Amazingly, you are the only person who has ever really asked me about it on Braingle!

Oh... I'm a full person. We had thanksgiving dinner today, since a lot of my extended family is leaving tomorrow.
So, I wonder how long it will take for our mystery boss to send out our mystery memo.

At this point, I think the better question is whether the Mysterious Thing will send out the memo or whether a new one will be chosen.
Mostly just here to play checkers now. You're always welcome to challenge me to a game.
