8-8:30PM: Main course
8:30-9PM: Dessert (hopefully birthday cake)
Investigator: Come dressed as a sort of authority figure! Think police, lawyer, doctor, etc. You get 2 warrants to investigate someone's most revent clue. Destroy warrant after use.
Gossip: Come dressed as a glamorous or famous character! Ex: an actor, musicion, character, etc. You can plant a "rumour" - you'll be given a fake painting piece to discretely plant somewhere.
Halloween Critter: Something like a cat, ghost, pumpkin, witch, etc. If you end up in the bottom half, your punishment amount X can be deducted by 1.
Other: To be decided when I see your costume :)
1st place: Sohini will paint you something of your choice on another 5.5"x8" paper! She'll try not to cut it up again. You also get the second piece of cake.
Top half: Enjoy your cake and painting in peace!
Bottom half: You get cake and your painting... but only after you either take X shots of alcohol or measured 1/2 cups of Sohini's Halloween Goo. Where X = your place - Y. ∀ (partygoer) ∈ (Sohini's party), Y ∈ {0,1,2,3,4,5}
Please aim to arrive at 7PM, and by 7:30PM. The earlier you come, the more choices for first painting piece you'll have :) We will reconvene at the beginning of every scheduled dining block in the kitchen.
You will be searching around the apartment. There will be no clue hidden in Lilian's room, Sohini's closet, Sohini's bathroom, Sohini's bed, the guest restroom, the kitchen, the patio, the coat closet near the door, and marked cabinets. Please keep all food, drinks, and mess to the kitchen or living room areas.
Do not use more force than needed when handling items around the apartment - if it seems like somewhere we wouldn't put a clue or it's taking strength/force, the clue's probably not there. If you're convinced it is, pull Sohini to the side to ask and confirm.
Feel free to make alliances and use underhanded tricks as needed. Sohini will find it funny. Probably...
