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

Then I am glad to hear that. I was worried that you might be worse off, wherever you are.

Is there anything you can tell us that could help us out of this bind? I want your input, as well, before we come to any decision.

[antietam]

I don't want you to end up like Elizabeth.

But I will say that there's not much point in escaping the complex. You won't get home.

[injectors]

I have no home, so that is fine. But I'm sure the others won't think the same.

Do you know what's outside, Adam?

[antietam]

Yes. I'm telling you it's not anything anyone wants.

I know for certain that no one will be able to get where they want. Believe me.

[injectors]

Then what would you suggest we do? There must be some acceptable compromise for all of us, the dead included. Perhaps not a happy ending, but something bearable.

[antietam]

You still have the option to vote for Ciel. I don't know what will happen, admittedly, but it probably won't kill us.

[injectors]

There's no doubt now that he's the Overseer, so that seems like the safest option. Or, at least, the one with less apparent repercussions.

[antietam]

I'm interested in seeing what will happen too. Maybe something good can come out of this.

[injectors]

I would hope so. I think we're all ready to see this come to an end.
