Editing Clue (section)

== Story ==
While the names and exact story depend on the edition, they all tend to follow a common pattern: the extremely wealthy Reginald Boddy (or Dr. Black) has been discovered dead in his mansion.  The only people who had the opportunity to kill him are the people staying at his mansion at the time:

* Miss Scarlet, an exotic, almost seductive woman.
* Colonel Mustard, a military man with a mustache and beard that would make [[Castor]] jealous.  Imagine every stereotype of British big-game hunters.
* Mrs. White, Mr. Boddy's maid.
* Mr. Green, a business tycoon with some shady connections.  In the UK, he's a crooked Reverend.
* Mrs. Peacock, an elderly aristocrat.  Some versions of her depict her as being constantly involved in scandals.
* Professor Plum, an absent-minded professor.
* Dr. Orchid, a secretive Asian biologist, replaced Mrs.White in the most recent edition as a new suspect. This was around 2016; The fact that this happened three years ago and the only one really giving a shit is the couple of indifferent journalists (and the Chinese) trying to hype this up probably testifies her only existence is a marketing ploy.

There is also the question of which of six weapons was used to kill him (the Candlestick, the Knife, the Lead Pipe, the Revolver, the Rope, or the Wrench) (you would think it'd be pretty obvious what weapon was used, but still...), and which of the nine rooms in his mansion he was killed in (the Ballroom, the Billiard Room, the Conservatory, the Dining Room, the Hall, the Kitchen, the Library, the Lounge, and the Study) (and you'd think this would also be obvious).  The "master detective" version of the game is exactly the same with a larger board, 12 rooms, 10 suspects and 8 weapons.
