Mind Over Manor

It's a stormy night in Hampshire, England. The year is 1926. You're a detective who's been invited to a dinner party at the mysterious Tudor Manor. You take detailed notes of the grounds in your old notebook. You can never be too careful.

You are last to arrive and Ms. Scarlet, your hostess, introduces you to 5 mysterious guests who have been wandering the Manor, waiting for their meal. At last, dinner is served, one course after another. It is almost time for dessert when--EGADS! Ms. Scarlet takes a sip of her drink and falls dead asleep, snoring loudly in her dish. You know the signs of a sleeping serum when you see them. What's worse: Ms. Scarlet's priceless Ruby Candlestick is missing!

The crook has clearly hoped to distract you while they make their getaway, but the storm outside means now escape from the Manor is impossible! The culprit must still be here in this very room...

I'm stuck on the third clue! I think I know who was closest but I can't find anything when I search the catalog for that part of the house.

In reply to by skalantr

Search for the person's name without title, plus the location in the house. For example: "Scarlett Dining Room", not "Miss Scarlett Dining Room"

I, too, am having trouble locating the final code. I went 30 results deep using both the numeral and the spelled-out word and haven't come up with anything.

I really hope I can figure this out, because up until that very last clue search this is the best badge I've ever done for the Summer Game and I want more like it! I really appreciate all of the work that went into it.

My wife figured it out! Hallelujah! The final clue seems to be written incorrectly- we got it by looking for the room the suspect snuck off to *DURING*, not before, dinner. Good luck, everybody!

the last clue is written wrong; it's where the culprit went during dinner, not before. I don't think it specifies where, so you just have to try each room until you get it. once you get the right combo the book w/ the code is right at the top

It makes a lot of sense if you think about it- where would you go to do the thing they said they did during the fish course? I hope they fix the clue, because it fits so neatly with everything else.

I figured out what went wrong! I switched some things on the map, but never updated the suspect quotes! It should make more sense now. Hats off to those of you who powered through, it wasn't meant to be THAT hard!

bookcat@bookz, if you still need help, rethink which people you've chosen. Mustard said he was the first of the GENTLEMEN. There could have been another woman before him. Check what everyone had to say again carefully.

What do I need to be searching for the fourth clue? I know the lie but not what to search in the catalog.

I am stuck on finding the second code... I have figured out what statement has the wrong information, but when I type the correct information into the catalog I'm not finding the code. I went through all 3 pages of results and I have tried a couple different variations, but I'm not finding it. Does anyone have any clues? I have found all the other codes, but that second one has me stuck.

sometimes the hints disappear and I can only see the comments under a badge? I haven't finished the badge yet.

(not gonna read other comments first, because it's annoying how some people just give away the answers instead of giving helpful hints)

The formatting is broken when the new clue appears in the green box after you enter the code. I'm using Chrome 66.0.3359.181 on a MacBook Pro.

Oh hey, I have finished the badge so read the clues and no one did giveaways (so far), unlike the previous badge I was working on. Go team! But the formatting is still busted. Is this happening for others?

Help, stuck on the third clue! I know what is and where they were but all combos not working. What to do.

This was a clever badge! Very fun.

HTML encoding isn't working when the new clues get displayed on code submit.

What an awesome badge! I have always loved CLUE, but the CLUEs were a little challenging! Especially, the last clue with the subtle switch of suspects!!

I don't get #4 I've searched the catalog for the correct country of the castle, but I can't find anything, then I searched the the name of the suspect and the the "right answer" but I.don't get it, can someone push me win the right direction? I'm doing it wrong!

Agggh! I am on the last clue. I have the course number, the fishy dish, and the room. I have tried entering the course number as a word, numeral, Roman numeral but to no avail. What am I missing? We are to search those words instead of entering them as a code?

That was a tough one! fun though! I like the new games format, for logging points and just how it works in general! can't wait for the second release!

Did anyone else waste time searching for a spaghetti and trout dish, or searching spaghetti? I was sure that the fact that the host was eating something not on the menu card was a clue. (Btw there is an Italian spaghetti and fish dish)

how do I find the 4th code?
I know what the correct fact is, but I don't know what to do with the information.
