Hints:
- One person here is from the main game. In fact, from its very first case.
- Only one scoreboard can be read. It shows the first three matches were finished and the fourth was cut short.
- Players wear blue or yellow rosettes, and each match puts a blue player against a yellow one.
- Learn the card rules from the one table where the winner of each hand is clear, then use them to score the other tables.
- Every player who went through to the next round won two hands.
- The drunk man’s note says the newcomer was paired with the best player in the room.
- Melee kills mean the killer was close by. Harpoons and chakrams are thrown, so those killers could be far away. One survivor is wounded, so one bloody weapon only injured.
- The man with a necklace of ears has a favourite target. Look for matching injuries.
