Hi everyone! The idea for this thread sprouted from some off-topic banter regarding a screenshot in the CSC (my screenshot, incidentally), and everyone was discussing how they think the king was murdered using evidence from the screenshot, seeing as I didn't make it too terribly clear.

A lot of ideas came out of CSC, and seeing as I started the first one, I can't help but steal some of its ideas. Basically, we'll start with a screenshot of a murder scene.

As you can tell, this bears quite a bit of resemblance in its structure to CSC, but I changed a few things to make it more laid back and smoother. The 3:5 ratio of witnesses to jury prevents any ties from occurring*, and the non-time-based structure gives the game a flow of its own. As well, the fact that the voters aren't directly voting upon the screenshot but on the interpretations of it, on top of the fact that there's only one screenshot at a time, gives the thread more of a "game" feel, rather than a "competition" feel. That way, the screenshots are made for fun, creativity, and/or personal taste of the designer, whereas some in the CSC are created for public appeal.
Synopsis of the process:
I hope you guys like my idea! So, to start us off,
