DAY TWO (morning)

[judgejudy]

DAY 2 (morning) Complex Population: 34 It's 8AM, and rather than waking naturally, you awake to the sound of an odd tone ringing through the intercom. As you wake from that deep, dreamless sleep that enforces curfew as always, Judy's voice speaks up a few moments after. "A death has occurred. Safety Protocol 6227-A is now in effect. Protocol now available on Complex terminals." That ominous message might prompt you to leave your room more quickly. You can check out the terminal, where a new file is available, but as you head into the atrium, you might notice something else. The viewing stage is open. It seems that someone was busy during the night. — This post is for the second day as defined in the schedule. This post is for investigation and general mingling before the trial that takes place in the afternoon IC. ic rulebook character statuses character profiles private conversations graveyard

i guess that's why brats shouldn't be up so late

[That's rude, Alice...]

the rulebook we got said that we'd be sharing rooms with up to three residents
does that mean that in the rooms where there are more than four people, one of them isn't a resident?

[judgejudy]

No. Some rooms are simply over capacity for our normal bunking regulations as defined in the pamphlet. Your population is slightly larger than others.

Unfortunately, we cannot print unique copies, so the most generic version was distributed to this facility. You are only supposed to have rooms of four, but some of you were a bit unlucky.

[selfsufficiency]

is there anything else in the pamphlets that are there because it's part of the generic explanation but doesn't actually apply to this group?

[judgejudy]

No, there is not. Everything else should be applicable. Otherwise, I would have demanded updated copies. :)

[selfsufficiency]

wow, we're so lucky to have you making sure we have everything we need to know! :)

[judgejudy]

Not everything. But I am sure you know this well.

[Alice's expression sours at that - she smacks the terminal because it's the closest she can come to smacking Judy, and then walks away.

Judy 1, Alice 0.]
