I have a master key to all of the guest lockers, but not to Max's desk. Welcome aboard group 2, Schmelt and Alice, and... Mayor, sir. *whispers to Alice and Schmelt* at the first sign of trouble from this crazy mayor, smack him over the head and run. So, we now have three train passengers in group two, who wants to be leader? We also need one or two more town residents. What!? This is crazy! Who took the knives??

I would go with you, Eleanor, but I think my abilities are better put to exploring the Mysteries of Main Street. Dynamic Spin: Go with Group 2

It's our destiny! Anyway, as much as these people seem strange, I think we should at least let them try to help us. Should we make a list to see who (out of these Willoughby residents) has been on the train and near the loco?

Shall I get some ice, sir? Only a few people were up front by the engine and tender- you, Steve, Brakes, and possibly Max. Considering we're in a crisis right now, I just thought that it would be important that a single passenger was up front. Wet coal? It was raining earlier, so maybe there is damage somewhere on the coal tender? I agree. Lets all just stay here and wait for the coal... I can't say these people aren't hospitable, but they are kind of out-of-the-ordinary. I could run down if that one guy doesn't have any.

Not in MONTEE. I think it's fair since it's technically a mystery game, not a mafia game. Plus, TheBrickster has staff privileges. It is interesting having three games running at once, though. Before you run you're own game, may I suggest that you could play one or two first, just to get the hang of it? With that experience, I'm sure you'd be able to run a heck of a mafia game.

:wub: Fantastic, Toth. All three look great, but Mundi is the best. Very realistic.

Yeah, that. I was just going to add that I remembered carrying Arin's or Mark's luggage when I thought that knife fell out. I wasn't pointing fingers, but I thought it might have been important. Apparently I was wrong, and the knife is... yours. To protect yourself... against... *looks meaningfully* Oh, yes, I remember who was near the engine not too long ago. (Not that I'm blaming anyone...)

Hm... I wonder who could have been in the engine room/ tender car... ...Never mind.

*gets up and brushes self off* Willoughby? But that's in Ohio... Never mind that, Steve, what's the problem? We're terribly sorry, passengers, but please remain in the train. We'll have this fixed up in no time. Herman, we'll continue the conversation we had over lunch later, if that's alright with you.

Oh, hush, I missed the whole lunch-time period (in day 3) while I was asleep. Finally!!

Currently there is one locker in use by Eleanor, but it is nobody's business, including the staff's, what she holds in there. I can confirm that there are seven lockers in the luggage car- one for each of you passengers. This also says something about you, Max. I'm not pointing any fingers, but what were you doing in the luggage car in the dead of night? You couldn't have been moving the knife- those lockers are reserved for passengers. Also, I know that you have a perfectly secure area- your desk in your room (of the staff car). Yesterday, Schmelt locked it up in your desk, which was safe enough. The only reason that you would have been sneaking off in the middle of the night to the luggage car is to search Eleanor's locker. I'm sorry, Max, but you are very suspicious right now, and I suggest you clear this up. So you claim the knife? May I ask why you brought it along? While I agree that Max is suspicious, you seem eager to point fingers. I've known and worked with Max for a long time, and he may just be confused. You also have been having many, many private conversations lately. Are you trying to get to the bottom of this, or are you making ties with everybody possible so that you look like the good guy when another incident happens? No disrespect intended, my good sir, but it is our duty as the staff to protect everyone aboard this train.

I agree, we (or maybe just a few of us...) are getting nowhere in solving these unusual problems we've been having aboard. Herman, I see you've taken some interest in privately speaking to several other passengers. Though I doubt it (hence the private conversations), would you care to share anything that you have found out? I'll throw in a few ultra-rare cards if you do...

*calls from staff car* Be right there! Dynamic movement: Once I'm done in the staff car, I'll go with Grease and Bulldog in the dining car.

Oky Wan is working on the finale right now. I'm sure he's been busy pumping out all of those new set reviews. Although it is kind of anticlimactic waiting so long for it.

Dynamic Movement: Go to staff car. Does anyone need anything? Drinks for you poker players?

Thanks, Schmelt! Dynamic movement: Head to Luggage and Supply Car.

Bah! Don't listen to Sandy! While I agree that it would be expensive to buy all of the pieces you need and it might take a while to get far with this, I think that you are very capable. If you put lots of dedication into this, I'm sure you will have made made a very impressive Hogwarts. Keep it up.

Looking great so far, Majek! I've always enjoyed your SW crossovers into Castle. I agree that the windshield is pretty clever. Looking forward to the finished product.

No, someone ate them all. And left me crumbs. Anyways, I could go for some more coffee, please, Schmelt. Oh, and I wanted to speak to you... Dynamic movement: talk to Schmelt privately.

Dynamic movement: Retire to staff car.

Wonderful review again, Oky. I don't like this set much, either- both vehicles will find there way into my parts bin. The figures are excellent, though, I like the new Agent Swipe and all of the gold (metallic! ) pieces he comes with. As for the lack of handlebars, I would like to think that the bike is high-tech, and there's some sort of plasma energy or something. Or you just listen to this.

Thanks for the review. I can't say that I actually "like" this set, but I love noth of the minifigs. Squidy has a wonderful new head mold and torso print, and I like the new minifigure head with glasses (or is it just a re-use of one of the Agents?). The speeder isn't bad, but it's not much, either. I'll be getting this for the figs and discard the pieces into my bucket.

Dynamic movement: I would like to go to the Observation Car, please.

I suppose these both look nice, especially the Fallingwater one, but I think Adam needs to focus more on the "big" world landmarks. So far he's only done the Sears Tower, John Hancock Center (which was a little unnecessary, considering the Sears is much more known and we don't need two buildings from Chicago), the Empire State Building (which was colored wrong), and the Seattle Observation Tower. I would like to see world-wide landmarks such as the Bregenz Opera House, the Taj Mahal, the Eiffel Tower, and so on. Considering the prices on past Architecture sets, I'm willing to bet that the Fallingwater is over 50 USD...

Thanks so much, Hound Knight! :sweet: I love it, and very funny idea with the helmet. Thanks once again for all the fantastic artwork you've done for us here on EB!
