WEEK SIX - TRIAL DAY TWO

[al2955]

the pygmalion. . . ONLINE CAPTAIN'S LOG: WEEK (6)

saturday TRIAL DAY TWO (29) 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.

This has been real entertaining. [Is he the only one amused? Probably. Sorry about that.] Any other reasons we should all be Anti-Jack right now?

[It's. Mostly sarcastic. Rhys why are you like this...] And wouldn't that mean Jack has a reason to target these people in particular? Or are you gonna tell me it's because he's a bad guy and he'll go after whoever's convenient?

[jackhole]

How many times do I have to say genocidal lunatic who razed Fiona's planet to the ground before anyone takes me seriously? What the hell.

[ HE'S GOT JACK RELATED PTSD LEAVE HIM ALONE ]

No, Jack only puts thought into his kills when it's personal. Otherwise, everyone's just a bullet to the brain. He's thrown people out of the airlock for getting his coffee order wrong.

[chiseler]

[Just a blank look. Let's not talk about stuff like that huh? Moving right along!!!]

Then that seems a little weird to pin this on Jack, too, since this was definitely a little more calculated. Wouldn't you agree on that? [Look he gets it, Jack-PSTD, but...come on. But that's good to know let's not piss off Jack.]

[jackhole]

[ something seems to click for rhys then ]

Oh -- Oh! Oh, haha. You... you think I'm trying to actually solve this? A-ahaha, shit. Yeeaaah, I don't care about who killed who. I just need Jack to die before he kills me. He's a suspect so why not kill the like, actual threat up there?

[chiseler]

[He rolls his eyes.]

Ever occur to you that there might be more than one person who wants to kill you on this ship even if Jack was executed this week? [Just sayin'.] If Jack survives this week, just kill him yourself first. Problem solved.

[jackhole]

[ throwing his arms in the air in exasperation ]

I've already killed him! Multiple times! He just keeps coming back and ruining my life. If some nobody on this ship tries to kill me, whatever, I'll kill them first. Jack is harder to kill! He has to go right now or I'm dead.

...you could just throw him out of the airlock. I'm pretty sure he couldn't get back in. [#helpful.] I'm just saying without more concrete proof you're probably not getting your way. So start thinking.
