trial #5

[judgejudy]

DAY 10 (afternoon) Complex Population: 15 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 11/5. voting

OOC NOTE: As explained in this thread, this is your chance to talk to the dead and without Judy's redactions! However, these redactions might have been for your own safety...

Dead characters will be posting underneath this thread, and if their comment contains data that would have been redacted (AKA plot related details), if you respond to that comment, a mod will comment to give you consequences depending on the severity of the plot information being read. For the most part, these should be minor, and anything major will be marked appropriately, since I'm communicating with the graveyard to make sure they don't accidentally kill the whole game.

After all, death is definitely a potential side effect. :)

[antietam]

Don't delete us. For God's sake, give us that much.

[adlucem]

[ADAAAAAM]

How can we help you? Is there any way?

[injectors]

We won't. Not without your consent.

[subsisted]

It's been a while since I've flexed my debate team skills. College feels like it happened longer back than it really did.

Give us a chance, let's talk about this. Please.

[injectors]

Let's. I cannot speak for everyone, but I would rather not end your lives without your consent.

[tearable]

... There's no right or wrong answer. I don't mind dying, but... I suppose talk it out with the others.

Please, just don't let me be a prisoner again... That's all I ask.

[selfsufficiency]

how can we free you?

[selfdenying]

[god god god tHERE SHE IS]

[He's just going to take a deep breath. Here we go.]

Can you be happy, the way you are? I couldn't even imagine...you don't even have a body, Elizabeth.

Please tell me you aren't going to suffer.

[injectors]

Elizabeth, I'm sorry I was unable to do anything to help you.

But whatever happens now, we'll try to make sure all of you don't end up in an even worse situation.

[chiseler]

Gonna play devil's advocate here, but what are you hoping to accomplish by voting for Judy? Just curious.

[grimdeity]

Personally, I just figured it might be interesting to try and break the game. At some point, anyway.

[injectors]

With all honesty? I'm not certain. But I believe it was suggested with a highly suspect promise of freedom.

[But now that they know the dead are inside of Judy's data, well... Shit.]

[heroizes]

Okay look I don't know about everyone else here but PERSONALLY I would super like to continue living

even if it's like, quasi-living

I don't know but don't turn us off dickheads

[newlugers]

If you're living in a computer. I guess you were right about the space thing sorry.

[ is this really the time, steve ]

You really want 2 stay in a computer? What's it like where you are? Is it all 1s and 0s or something

[injectors]

With everything we've learned, it seems safe to say executing Judy is no longer an option. Don't worry, Jack.

[selfdenying]

Jack, is there any way to change Judy's code so she can allow more people outside? Since obviously, there's more than five of us here.

[mitsubou]

Personally speaking, I'd rather not die a second time, you know? If I can still communicate to the people here, then...

[karachan]

[ AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA ]

mitsutada how? are you even still alive or are you like in the system like judy is or something?

[ He'll do anything to keep Mitsutada around? Alive? Whatever kind of existence he seems to be in -- ]

[becauseimacoward]

I'm sorry. Leaving that aside, there's something I need to know.

[Speaking of communicating...although not with someone who is among the dead right now...]

I know I'm putting myself at risk of dying or being close to dying by asking this, but I have to know:

Do the dead people know if our families okay, if the people behind the Complex have tried to harm them, or anything like that?

[That's pretty much the reason why Dojima has started to let the situation sour up his good heart]

[puffing]

Hey assholes.

We're dead. You're alive. Hasn't anyone told you guys it's bad to take advice from ghosts?

[selfsufficiency]

you're not supposed to be dead!
come back

[newlugers]

Yeah well we join you soon if we don't get more information.

Rhys said Judy killed you guys since you wouldn't kill the girl. Did she use the memories thing on you both?

[mansplains]

"Don't kill us again" has already been covered, so let me ask this. What exactly is your plan? Voting off Ciel?

[onepunchgirl]

Hey guys.

Can't share any information. I would rather you all not die from your minds literally being blown. That said, I don't know if killing Judy is the best idea. The Overseer is the better option.

I also know the identity of the person who killed me. They haven't been caught. Make sure they pay.
