I don't remember the rules either.  All I know is that a description of a weird crime is given, and then one person is the suspect, and everyone asks the suspect questions. If you can get the suspect to contradict himself or herself, you win. Then you can set up the new crime. Something like that. It was in the VG archives, waaaaay back. |

Ahh yes, alibi.
One person is the accused. The accused asks the other players questions about the crime they allegedly committed, to get off the hook, the accused must point out a contradiction in the answers. |

| I remember, ctraltdel knows the rules. Pretty much what Neo describes. I think the weird crimes got out of hand towards the end - maybe we should just start with jaywalking or something. |

That has the rules and a basic idea.
If we do it that way, maybe we could use the Private Threads Forum and use 2 threads: suspect A and suspect B. Anyone can post in the two threads except for the two susects who can only post in their thread. I don't know how complicated it would be to change the list of acceptable posters each time, though. |

| Then someone could cheat by registering a new name so they could post anywhere. |

| I thought the private forums only let X, Y, and Z post, not anybody except for X Y Z. |

That means JeffK, Will, pikachamp, and everybody who isn't a suspect. In your words, "everyone but X Y Z".
If by "everyone" you mean "everyone in the game", it's possible. |
