  It was very fun... ended past midnight. But credit goes to the organisers and planners... they made the game suitably difficult and complex, so there was some challenge in the tasks as well as piecing together clues to deduce the murderer.
  
  Meanwhile there are murder mystery party sets sold online, so that you can hold one yourself. Not sure if they work the same way but they look interesting too.
  
  hmmm.. idea!
  
  my friend was just asking what to play for our christmas eve party... this looks good.. any websites to recommend?

  :O Mod abuse!
  
  Aww I already deleted my links... a friend and I were researching quite extensively some months back because we thought it'd be fun to hold a murder mystery party at a chalet this year's Halloween, get everyone to dress and act according to character
  
  But idea aborted after the character creation stage... just too much logistics to handle at too short time. :S
  
  Would this be helpful?

  I wonder if they sell those murder mystery game sets in Toys R Us?

  Relack jack?
  
  If you guest then don't bother with it lah. These game sets are supposed to be easy to use, can fit certain number of people. Much easier than designing a game from scratch.
  
  Only try such ambitious projects when you've got lots of time on your hands.
  
  You be going to friend's Xmas party har? Where's it held?

  relack jack.. term we use among my friends.. something like 'chill out', 'relack one corner', idling around
  
  e.g. finally finished that report.. can relack jack liao
  
  friend's colleagues invited me to their party.. had went out with them a few times.. so i was invited.. would be at one of their places
  
  they are having pot luck.. my friend being a relack jack, volunteered us to bring log cake
  
  p.s. as u can see relack jack is also quite versatile

  Well I wouldn't be too harsh on him, log cake is part of Xmas fare heheh. What food are you bringing?
  
  Tomorrow I have pot luck at my house. I also Relack Jack - ordered Longtong from muslim stall But it's guaranteed yummy!
  
  Oh btw, those regular party game ideas can also be found on net.

  12 Dec 03, 17:24

  hmm... just ate too much on the way back.. there's a pasar malam thing going on at Jurong East and i bought $2 worth of vadei... and scoffed it all on the account that i didn't eat lunch
  
  mmmmm... vadei
• choco B

  12 Dec 03, 17:35

  Uh, whazzat? :S
  
  We had fun with the ZeCar today. It managed to roll over successfully, on individual tries:
  
  a pilot v5 pen
  an artline stamp pad
  a post it pad
  (items all lying flat on table)
  
  My colleague also tested it on the carpeted floor, and it rolled over wire casings. You should've seen us, 2 grown women kneeling on the floor, playing with a toy car.
  
  I think next week, we will see how many obstacles it can overcome in one push.

  Hahah work got so stale today that we were desperate for amusement.
  
  Oh, fried flour. I'm not a big fan.
  
  Where did you buy those strawberries? Cheap leh, I gotta buy groceries tonight. Early this week I bought 1kg of cherries but they weren't sweet.

  Heheh that's cute. Remote control is fun.
  
  Everyone's quite amazed at the car, I get lots of queries about it.
  
  We were looking at electrical letter openers, the types that auto-slices open the edge of an envelope when you place it in the slot. Well, it would be cool if the ZeCar came with a razor at the base, so we can use it as a slicer?
