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

Yes. For God's sake, I hit her with a baton and she fought back a little while she was on the ground.

I can't believe I have to say all this.

[grimdeity]

Did you really expect us to all to say "oh, gosh! better vote adam without questioning his motives at all!"?

[antietam]

Are you kidding me? That's all you've been doing. You've killed three innocent people for less. [ he hates every single one of you ]

[grimdeity]

You're on quite the high horse for someone who just admitted to killing an innocent woman. And are you absolving yourself of those three deaths, as well? You played as much a part as any of us.

[antietam]

She wasn't innocent. She killed two people. I did the right thing.

I didn't kill Luke or Lara.

[grimdeity]

Did she now? I don't recall that, unless you think that she was solely responsible for Luke and Lara. One could say we all killed them, whether we voted for either. If you truly think yourself some innocent vigilante, you're stupider than I thought.

[antietam]

You might think I'm stupid but I'm not the one who couldn't figure out this simple murder.

[grimdeity]

Well, obviously, since you committed it, it'd be particularly sad if you couldn't figure it out.

And as you said, we've killed three innocent people already. Pardon us for thinking things through as best we can, lacking actual detectives, forensics, or anything else usually used to solve murders.

[antietam]

Really? This was thinking it through? A child and the guy Franziska named because you couldn't come up with anyone better?

[grimdeity]

Oh, please tell me how we could have figured it out, o wise and pure Adam Parrish.

Do you have anything of use to say, such as who may be staff, or are you just going to bitch about us being so terrible until voting closes?
