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

No, that's always helpful. I will be able to confirm that this, like the others, was inflicted in the past if anyone asks...and they needn't question my credentials.

[ i mean maybe they should since she just makes vague statements to most people about knowing shit, like how she just went "experiment upon too" but whatever. shijima is clearly an expert! ]

I find him more suspicious than you, honestly.

I don't think there's a single soul who wants to oppose you at this point.

[ Don't worry, Liz definitely plans to bring it up in private. She didn't want to bring attention to it - not like how this was. ]

Then maybe we should begin looking in his direction? I won't condemn a kid to death unless needed, but worth questioning.

[liven]

Perhaps. He's one of the four claimed abstains, and I would still like to know why one of those four bothered to lie about their vote.

[ it's not proof positive of guilt so she's mostly waiting for them to explain themselves or argue about who is telling the truth and who isn't? ]

We've time yet, at least.

Veronica went on about communication, so we need to follow up. If that's the route we're taking, I mean.

[ Can they come together and work together as a team...?!? ]

[liven]

She isn't wrong. We need to get all three of them to answer. Bigby was one of the four claims to abstention, but I believe his vote truly was an abstain.

Narrowing down why someone would lie would either get us to one of the six or the staff, I'd think.
