WEEK 10 - Trial

[al2955]

the pygmalion. . . ONLINE CAPTAIN'S LOG: WEEK (10)

saturday TRIAL DAY ONE (16) survivors At 9 AM, a klaxon alarm begins blaring in every area of the ship. The alarm will continue to go off until everyone has gathered in the conference room. Should anyone be running late or avoiding the trial for whatever reason, a robot guide will appear wherever they are and gently but firmly escort them into the room. Once all the living players are present, the conference room doors will lock shut; anyone who wishes to leave for whatever reason will need to ask AL-2955 or one of the robots. Anyone leaving for non-investigative purposes, such as bathroom breaks, will be accompanied by a robot escort. The large round table in the center of the conference room has been set up to help the trial run as smoothly as possible. Three holographic screens hover above the center hollow of the table, visible from every angle. The first screen displays the pictures and profiles of the suspects and victim; the second displays the autopsy report; the third displays a blank word processor. Each of the chairs comes equipped with a virtual keyboard which can be used to type information directly into the third screen, such as theories and updated information; they can also be set into privacy mode, which will transfer whatever notes someone writes directly into their datapad instead of on screen. There's also a tablet function for those who wish to draw charts or pictures on screen. The keyboards will detect the DNA of whoever's using them and record who's typed what - simply press an area of text and the name of whoever wrote it will pop up. The area to the right of the table has been temporarily sectioned off with a glass partition and sliding door for hygienic issues. Inside, the victim's body has been laid out on a metal autopsy table, covered by a plastic sheet. Above it is a holographic screen that displays a close-up color photograph of the body when it was found. A hand sanitizer dispenser has been considerately attached to the wall nearby for anyone getting up close and personal to the body. To the left of the conference table is a display case. Any evidence found during the investigation will be carefully collected by the robots at some point the previous day and placed here before the trial starts. Beneath each piece of evidence is a small tablet where players can type up information, such as a short description or where it was found. There are also empty areas left over for any evidence that may be found during the trial. The shelf at the very bottom of the case has been reserved for an extra rulebook in case anyone needs it. Food will be served throughout the day by the robots, who will take individual orders whenever you're feeling hungry. The trial will end at 9:00 PM, at which point all players will have been expected to cast their vote.

throwing dummies out the airlock

[monsieurchatastrophe]

[Adrien, Dave and Eyepatch Widow are outside the airlock with a dummy in and are planning to tHROW IT OUT. somehow. how do you eject a dummy into space someone else figure this shit out]

So once we send it off, all we need to do is wait in the viewport to see how long it takes.

[it'll. it'll probably take longer than the minute or two it'll take them to go to the viewport so this is Fine]

[parodeity]

I mean, we can just ask Alice to open the door when we're like, upstairs at the viewport, man. It should get sucked into space.

[ right ]

[antagonize]

Or, one of us could wait upstairs while the other two let this dummy take a swim in space. The important thing here is timing.

[Look, he has a name.]

[parodeity]

Ok. Who wants to wait upstairs?

[ dave literally doesn't care who does what so he will let you two pick ]

[monsieurchatastrophe]

Jason should probably go, since we're both suspects. And... one of us goes with him?

[rock paper scissors for who gets the grieving wife]

[antagonize]

Whatever you decide on, make it snappy. The faster we get this test out of the way, the better.

[He's not a grieving wife??? That wasn't even a real marriage??? But he doesn't care either, so whatever is fine.]

[parodeity]

I'll go upstairs with him then, I already did one airlock experiment today.

[ HE'D LIKE A CHANGE OF SCENERY? ]

Also, I'm good at keeping track of time so I'm better than a clock. Just be extra non-suspicious while you're alone, broseph.

[ he offers adrien a fistbump before presumably trailing after jason ]

[monsieurchatastrophe]

[okay grieving widow todd. adrien brofists dave before he departs and awaits the probably furry passing signal of their viewport arrival before sending the dummy off to go flying.

see you space dummy]

[al2955]

[ Alice is gracious enough to allow it to open once Adrien is cleared out of the room. Adrien can probably here it flying out from the other side of the room.

The dummy takes a few minutes to come into view. To be exact, a few seconds past the ten minute mark. It's decidedly less graceful than Elizabeth, but appears to be propelling at roughly the same rate. ]
