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

I dislike Alvin but I'm not sure what I think his loyalties might be. He did suggest the abstention vote idea, but kept insisting it wasn't "his" idea. That's why I was refusing to go along with it at first...he kept not wanting credit for something we only considered because of him.

Taking credit also means taking blame if shit hits the fan.

Yes, so? I'll take credit for everything I say. It annoys me when others can't do the same.

[onepunchgirl]

What I mean is someone who thinks their plan may backfire will lack the conviction to stand by it even if it means being blamed. That's the kind of person Alvin strikes me as.

[tearable]

That's because I teased the idea to have him ask Judy for help. He was reaping what I sowed. I wouldn't want to take that blame either.

[ Elizabeth is indifferent. ]

He's a charmer, from my first experience with him. The man has a silver tongue and isn't afraid to use it. Getting caught wagging it is how you can get killed in a situation like this, I'd say.
