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

Indeed, he said he left something in the terminals. [Dojima shakes his head] No matter what happens, we should be able to access it once the trial is over.

If Phantomhive is a staff member and Rhys is trying to save him by lying, and we kill him, there's no downside.

If Rhys is telling the truth and Phantomhive dies...we still managed to execute a staff member. That by itself is a plus.

[Hmmmm...]

This pretty much eliminates any chance of Phantomhive being the Overseer, though. I really doubt the Overseer would take a risk like what Rhys says Phantomhive is doing - if we believe that part, that is.

I'm not sure this makes it impossible for him to be the Overseer... Judy said that the Overseer could hear us, when I was talking to her.

If that's the case, then this timing is doubly suspicious. If he was the Overseer, then he knew we were going to vote for him. It's like how he disappeared right after we almost voted for him before.

[She crosses her arms.]

I want to know what this information is before we make a decision. Or at least - I want to try to access it.
