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!

How many combinations did you have to try? That's really cool.

[ballies]

it's actually not that many when you have four numbers given to you. picking randomly, and you'd have 10,000 to work with.

but we had four numbers so there were only 24 possibilities.

[stunwhistle]

That's still impressive. I'd probably have gotten confused about which ones I'd already tried.

[ballies]

i just started with one i'd tried, and shifted the other numbers one to the left. rinse and repeat.

either way, it worked. we got... well. we got the walkie talkie.

[stunwhistle]

...that at least tells us something, right? It tells us whoever set this up was intending for people looking at both locations to be able to talk to each other.

[ballies]

yeah, it does.
but then, why was one locked away like that? it was the only thing in that cupboard.

[stunwhistle]

To keep it from being too obvious too soon, maybe?
