trial #3

[judgejudy]

DAY 6 (afternoon) Complex Population: 27 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 10/22. voting

Unless Judy says otherwise to those questions, I will agree with this way of thinking. As to Franziska...I believe it could have gone either way, actually.

[ she shifts, crossing her arms, as she explains. at least she still seems to be keeping her "fine i guess i'll help in trials" promise to bigby, though at least half of what she's said that hasn't been defending him has been playing devil's advocate. ]

That woman absolutely was the sort of person who had absolute confidence in her ability to do things. I do not think that means she absolutely had that ability. Either she was overconfident as was her apparent nature, and the staff assumed as you did she was one of the six...or she really did have the ability to protect others and was an idiot who played her hand too soon.

Those are the only two options. Without confirmation on the count of people on either side, we can't say for sure just yet.

[ She chews on the other woman's words a bit. It was interesting. Elizabeth didn't see Franziska as dumb but this move? If she did have a role... or was a pure innocent, either way - she painted a target on her back. Elizabeth admired the woman for her bluntness but knew the time and place was less than ideal. ]

So you think someone got too big for their britches and it came back to bite her in the ass? [ As blunt as that was. ]

We need to see how and if Franziska's death ties into the attack on Bigby.

That was what I assumed, yes, although I have heard the theory of her having one of those six slots from many others. I personally thought she was simply making promises she could not keep.
