I don't know. I have a feeling I'm not going to be very good at this game.

[JoJo]

Thanks, researcher. But it looks like Caroline did it a different way?

 

[researcher]

Hmm, don't know. Only attachments work for me.

Researcher, were you aware that I had just posted a picture of someone and it was my turn?

 

[researcher]

OK, another hint. His mission had a number that is considered unlucky, and some buildings don't have a floor with it. (but yes, he was an astronaut)

Caromurp! Lol. Sorry, I didn't know the rules! LOL. ;)

Is it the priest that helped cover up the Catholic church sex scandal? Father Murphy? ;)
