trial #2

[judgejudy]

DAY 4 (afternoon) 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

That's rather morbid. They have to murder again to get a result?

[Ergh...the thought makes his stomach turn.]

Judy is not our friend. She's friendly, but she's not showing her hand. Or her face. The point is, she's not telling us the whole truth, and we need to take her words with a grain of salt.

Oh, goodness, sorry. [He says, sheepishly rubbing the back of his head.] I admit, I got a bit carried away there...but you have a point. I doubt there are many of them among us. We have the power to weed them out while they must struggle to defend themselves and keep to the shadows.

As long as we don't give up hope...we'll get them soon enough. I'm sure we will.

Hope can rot away with time and time seems to be a rarity among here.

[ She speaks in a wisdom far beyond her years, if her profile card indicates anything. ]

The point is making sure they're pressed back against. If we can find one of the staff members, we're able to show them we can't be messed with. This, in short, will put the pressure on them and that is when they get sloppy.
