The other posts in this thread that talk about GURPS are doing so in the context of the original question, and that's fine. It's the difference between "this happened in a GURPS game" and "here's exactly how I did this in a GURPS game."
That being said, the Housekeeping question is something that might be helpful to GURPS players to discuss, especially if Kromm can be prevailed upon to give us the low-down on how he did it in his campaign. But I don't want to clutter up a thread for something else with it, not to mention that more people interested in how to use Housekeeping to hide evidence are likely to see a thread in the GURPS forums.

So, if it's not too much trouble, could you copy Kromm's original post and move our responses to this sub-thread to the GURPS forums?
