Relevant whose ring it was? Was he murdered by: A stranger? His wife / lover? His ex wife? A family member? A friend? A political enemy of some kind? A contract killer? Did putting the ring on identify him as a the intended victim? Did it make someone else angry? | ||

So the murder took place outside? In outer space? On a vehicle - like a plane / ship etc? Did it take place in a dream? Would it help to learn more about Eric? More about the stranger? Such as what went through the stranger's mind? | ||

Was the ring meant for someone else than Eric? Was the ring intentionally left for someone to find? Is the relative position and distance of Eric, the stranger and the ring relevant? Did anyone else die or just Eric? | ||

Is putting on the ring by itself relevent as to why Eric died? Is it probable that he would be alive if he had just put it in his pocket instead? | ||

is it relevant how much time there is between putting the ring on and him dying? was it seconds? minutes? hours? days? weeks? did the ring make someone think something about Eric? that he was married? did the ring cause someone to think Eric was someone else? e.g. someone the stranger disliked but didn't know by sight had a similar ring? | ||

Had the ring been in Eric's possession for a some time? Seconds, minutes, hours, days, longer? Did the ring belong to Eric? Was the ring attached to anything or part of something else? Is the normal purpose of this kind of ring to be put on a finger? Did Eic move, run, jump, fall after putting on the ring? | ||

Was the murderer: a crook? an agent of some sort? Was the ring special in any way? Was it very valuable? Did the murderer think the ring was valuable? Did the murderer think Eric had comitted a crime / killed someone / stolen something? Did the murderer mistake the ring or the action of putting the ring on as something else? Did the murderer see Eric put the ring on? Did the murderer misinterpret what he saw? Did the ring act as a signal in any way? Was the ring bugged? | ||

Did Eric put the ring on the finger? Was it easy to put it on? If yes, is it relevant to find out more about the finger? Did he try to take off the ring once it was put on? If yes, did he succeed? did it come off easily? Did it stay on until he died? Was it taken off after his death? Is it relevant to find out which murder weapon was used? After the ring was put on, was the reason for Eric's death: - intentional - accidental Does the stranger know about the ring before Eric puts it on? | ||

Is the stranger acting rationally? I mean, is he sane? Is putting on the ring a signal for something to happen? Something that would harm others? The stranger? Was it a means of identification? Was the stranger looking for someone who would put a ring on? anything else with a similar movement? | ||

Is any other action by Eric relevant? Something he did just before or after putting the ring on? Did Eric say anything? Did he express an emotion? Did the stranger say anything? Is the stranger acting because of what happened just then and there? Is he acting out of anger? fear? Did he carry the murder weapon? Did he use whatever was within reach? Did he choose the murder weapon more carefully? | ||

Another case of OCD? ;-) The misinterpered action, did it have anything to do with putting the hands together? Touching ones fingers? Anything to do with (in the stranger's eyes) a for the occasion inappropriate gesture? | ||

did the stranger think it was directed towards himself? towards someone he knew? or just that it was a general rude gesture? did he mean to kill him? or just hurt him? was he hit with something? stabbed with something? I think it was said earlier the murder was outside, was it on a road? in a park? in a car? road rage incident? | ||

Was the occasion such that most people would have found the gesture offensive? Do you have to be involved in the occasion in a special way to find the gesture offensive? Was the occasion special for the stranger? Was it like a once in a lifetime opportunity for him? Did the gesture spoil an important part of the occasion for the stranger? Did the stranger throw something at Eric? Was the object solid? Did it break? You answered Yope to vehicle before. Was Eric run over by the stranger's car? Are there any cultural or religious aspects behind the stranger's reaction? | ||

SPOILER: Eric put on his ring in his car, but to another driver, it looked as if he was flipping the bird, so he was run off the road in road rage. Check out my other (harder, hopefully!) puzzles! |
