Well, any of the newcomers can try to host a game if they want.

And I agree. The official version isn't like, "do exactly as it says, and it will work." It's more like, "this is roughly how our GMs operate, but depending on various circumstances, everything can change multiple times."

Well, any of the newcomers can try to run a game if they want to.

For example, player 777 is bored and has a setting in mind... Do you think he'd be a good GM?

I doubt it, just like I doubt that enough people will join. Although, I can't speak for everyone.

I personally don't mind, I even want to play myself, but I think it would be better for everyone if the settings for so-called newcomers were perceived more calmly, with some humor, patience, and without any seriousness, etc. Let 777 conduct it, but unofficially (it can even be done without being recorded in the criminal record), let it be an invaluable experience for the person for the future. Besides, maybe this is his calling, and he will handle it better than anyone else. The second option is to let him play more, gain experience, and then conduct the game. O_O The thermometer shows -37.9. I think everything is bad... (Flood)

The second option is for him to simply play more, gain experience, and then host a game.

Correct option.

Let him run it, as far as I'm concerned. Someone can help him with the clues; he has free time, and you don't need much experience to be a GM...
Warrior, do you want to run it yourself?

Why not? If you didn't want to, you shouldn't have signed up in the first place.

Are you sure you can handle it? After all, it’s not that easy.

The most difficult part is gathering the clues. But I can handle everything else.

The clues aren't that difficult to find. It's more challenging to accurately present everything in the newspaper and avoid getting confused with one's own settings and NDAs. Well, never mind. It's not my business, after all.

The clues themselves aren't very difficult. It's more challenging to accurately present them in the newspaper and avoid getting confused with my own settings and NDs.

Well, never mind. It's not my business in the end.

For me, clues are a complex matter because they mainly refer to movies and books, which is not my forte. I wouldn't want to create clues like in Mafia II (they are too easy). For example, "*uk*shy*". Try to guess?

For example, "*uk*shy*" Try to guess?

What?! :D :D :D :D

To be honest, I'm very surprised that you couldn't guess this clue.

[sarcasm mode OFF]*uk*shy* = *er*is* = heroist.[sarcasm mode ON] Damn, I almost died trying to figure it out, it took me ten whole minutes...

No, seriously, who's stopping you from creating a clue with multiple stages? For example, you could mask the true meaning of a clue under another clue. CAT = TAC, DREAM = MARED. And so on. Then, using Google search, you can lead to the killer's profile.

Or, for example, you can use the binary system to reveal the true meaning of the clue. Example - any word that, when translated into digital code and then entered into the Google search bar, will lead to a link with a hint about the killer's character profile.
