trial #2
 Complex Population: 32 At noon, the same tone from the morning rings out, and Judy's voice filters out over the intercom. "Good afternoon, residents. As per Safety Protocol 6227-A, it is time to conduct a trial to bring justice for the victim. Please proceed to the courtroom on the first level." Just as at night, if you don't go to the courtroom, you'll be treated to an electric shock of increasing strength until you go to the courtroom or are unconscious. Though considering the ominous penalty for not participating in a trial, you should likely just go rather than risk not voting because you've been knocked out by your own stubbornness... Once you're in the courtroom, you'll find that bottled water and light snacks are provided, but otherwise you'll have to bring anything else you may need. As you come to your conclusions about who to vote for, you can step into the judgement theater to cast your vote at the terminal. You may change your vote as many times as you'd like, but at 7PM, your vote (or lack thereof) is locked in. You have until 7PM to discuss and vote for who you think the murderer is. ic rulebook character statuses character profiles Voting will close at 9PM EST on 10/15. voting |

Would it be a mistake if you really were one of the staff?
no subject
...Well, technically, technically, no, but. I'm not?

I own a company. The staff I hire don't have the ability to make management decisions. They just work for me. They don't tell me what I can make or sell.
no subject
Sure, but why would the management put their staff in harm's way? Unless you think we're supposed to find them and execute them? I don't know why the staff would agree to this, then.
no subject
I don't know all the details. I'm only making educated guesses. My staff are separate from me. I don't know them on a personal level, not usually.
When I make changes to our company structure or our products, they don't know until it's already done. They are required to do their job regardless of how they feel about these decisions.

So in theory they could also be unwilling participants in the game, simply working for their own survival like we are.
Our real target would be the person in charge, then. But I doubt they're even around.
no subject
Our only other option is to try to get out of this facility. People are going to continue to die, however. We have to chose for the trial, or it will just be randomized. But randomization could be better on people's consciences, I'd imagine.
Except for the chosen killer.
no subject
That means most people are going to be trying to point the finger at someone before time is up.

Sounds idiotic.

Which is actually putting it lightly.
