day one - afternoon

[guestcontrol]

dreamland day one 41 players remaining. [As the day wears on into the afternoon, the dead aren't getting any deader. It's late in the afternoon, and the air is beginning to cool, when the chimes play again over the park loudspeaker. "All of us here at Dreamland wish you luck, guests! Let's meet up in the Hall of Mirrors!" Wherever you are, it's time to make your way over to the House of Horrors, where you'll have to brave the funhouse to find the room on the top floor. Don't delay, or your guest identification bracelet will begin beeping. The House of Mirrors is a large room, more than capable of fitting a crowd. Tall mirrors line every wall, and the door you entered through seems to vanish into a mirror as well. The mirrors give the impression that many, many more are among your number, standing in the background. In the back is a jar filled with blank raffle tickets. You'll have to take a ticket, write down a name, and place it back in the jar. Hopefully you already know who you're voting for, but if not, you only have time for a brief discussion before you're out of time. rulebook character statuses private conversations graveyard Voting will close at 10 PM EST on Sept 24.

You can really play games?

[ She doesn't know what "online gaming" is, but she caught the multiplayer and gaming part. That's what makes the most sense to her out of all of that. ]

[5_9]

Yes. The challenges posed in games help to speed up our onboard processors and help us learn. They are especially useful to calibrate sniping programs.

[ A pause, then, ]

Our current score in N7 Code of Honor: Medal of Duty is 15,999,999,999.

[fanbase]

So... what if they've programmed you to think this is a game? That obviously means you're not deciding to do it on your own, but if that's what they've done to you... then would it be possible to view something like this as some kind of video game?

[5_9]

[ Legion falls silent as it gives off the impression of staring back at her, but the answer comes before too long. ]

If our data was corrupted, we would recommend termination. System restores are not currently available. This corrupted data could not be allowed to be reuploaded to Geth networks.

[fanbase]

It wouldn't be fair to terminate you just because someone else decided to mess with you or your programming. That's not your fault.

[5_9]

No. But it would be advised. We would not wish to corrupt the rest of the Geth with this data. All Geth would take in the data. All Geth would be subject to this error.

[ A pause, then Legion adds, ] We do not believe our data is corrupted in this way. However, detailed systems analysis is currently offline.

[fanbase]

So it might be possible that they did and you might not even know it.

Well... whatever. [ She crosses her arms. ] Wether that's true or not, it's dumb to lynch you without knowing anything else. I still think it's whoever got the key from the Detonator anyway.

[poyoyon]

It was one of us?!

[ ...IT WAS SOMEONE IN THE GROUP ANYWAY, IBUKI????

/the most useful ]

[fanbase]

It's gotta be. Unless the person on the PA is taunting us by getting the first kill.

[poyoyon]

And then making everyone turn on one another?!

[ Girls. Girls, please. ]

[fanbase]

It'd make sense. I mean, there aren't any rules that don't say they can or can't do that.

[poyoyon]

So it's a loophole they made in their own game?!

[ WOW Ibuki basically will believe anything you say Clash ]

[fanbase]

[ She's completely cool with that, mostly because she believes in anything Pizzazz says. [

It wouldn't really be all that surprising at this point with the way they sprung everything on us expecting we would take it so easily.

[poyoyon]

Then we can't fall for their trap!!

[ how...do they avoid falling for the trap ]

[fanbase]

We won't, we're way smarter than that. You always gotta trip them up before they trip you up.

[ Her tone of voice sounds like she has experience with this sort of stuff. ]

[poyoyon]

Right! We're totally smarter!!

[ ... ]

How do we trip them up?

[fanbase]

I've tripped up my cousin ever since I was born by being way smarter than her, I'm sure that we can trip up whoever's running this too, but it'd be easier if I had all my make-up. We'd probably be able to get away with something really good then.

[poyoyon]

In that case, Clash-chan can be the brains and Ibuki will be the ears!

[ .................is being the ears that helpful ]

[fanbase]

That works. Video always used to blab things when she was pushed hard enough, that's what we gotta do here too.

[poyoyon]

Then let's make like lawyers and break these suckers!

[ SOMEHOW ]

[5_9]

We agree that execution at this time is not viable. If further data emerges to suggest corruption, we will volunteer for execution.

[fanbase]

You might have a lot of help if it comes to that though. Have you tried playing any of the carnival games?

[5_9]

No. We did not see a purpose to at the time, though new data suggests that it may be viable in the future.

[fanbase]

If you're good at games then maybe you can win something that might be of help to us.
