Week 6: Trial

week 6:
 
trial
   15 DOODZ REMAIN   

Rise and shine. The sirens that filled the streets on Friday have died down, allowing you to spend the morning peacefully despite the news. It isn't until 11 AM that an alarm goes off on everyone's phone, citing a reminder for the trial taking place at the courthouse at noon. It turns off soon, but pops back up every ten minutes to ensure that you don't forget.

Shortly before 12 PM, all heroes feel a compulsion to head to the courthouse, where the staff direct you to one of the courtrooms reserved for the day's events. Attendance is mandatory, it seems, and once everyone has arrived, the doors close and lock behind them.

Yesterday's investigation was only the beginning. The real work begins now.
Welcome to your week one trial! Over the next nine hours, characters will have the chance to investigate, and theorize about the murders, as well as examine the body of the victim and explore relevant locations with NPC permission. As you gather evidence and discuss, we encourage you to revisit the investigation post to refamiliarize yourselves with the events of Friday morning.

There will be a mod-tag break between 5 PM EST / 2 PM PST to 6 PM EST / 3 PM PST. While the trial may continue and players can tag each other, mod-led threads such as questions and investigations will be on hold.

To vote for a culprit, head over to the voting page! Voting is mandatory in this game, so please be sure that your vote is in by the time trial finishes at 9 PM EST / 6 PM PST.

Good luck, heroes!

A witness...? Weird...
odoruhinokaze: (eh)

...I don't get it either.

Seems strange to leave this sort of thing around. It wasn't in an easy to find place, but eventually we would've found it, so...it's hard to say what the intention was for someone having it out where it was.

... Does someone know what's going on and like left a bunch of clues and shit for us? [ she sounds so doubtful about this. one of the little green flower buds on her shoulders withers a little angrily. ]

Or is it just supposed to waste our time?
odoruhinokaze: (really now)

[personal profile] odoruhinokaze 2023-11-04 05:24 pm (UTC)(link)
...Either way, it's definitely someone who has way too much time on their hands.

[ That flower right now? Is a total mood. ]

But, we should probably consider it to relate to...everything, somehow.

Maybe it's generalised? Whoever Signor Sunbeam is, no one has ever seen him with a gun. Something like that?

Mmm, that makes sense.

Signor Sunbeam... [ she makes a face. ] Aquamarine Artiste...

Alliterative. Maybe we need to lay them all out and group them -- people, colours, items, etc.

[ ...! ]

Those weren't the only ones that had people, were they?

I don't fully know the others, but if there's more than one 'person' in these cards, we probably need to look at all of them and go from there.

Just like Clue... ugh...

It can't hurt.

...Sounds reasonable to me.
