You may post all communications between one another in here. External communication is still not permitted outside of this thread. All game rules still apply whilst communicating in here.

And if we communicate here, but one of us loses the communication device or dies, does all previous info disappear before someone else can read it?

I would assume that it does. I think the walkie-talkies weren't readable by other players, but I haven't checked the Lab 2 threads.

So, I chose to give you the other communicator, because I felt that you're active enough that any communications between us will stay pretty secure, and can be acted upon fast enough to actually be useful. (And, yes, this is why I thought that an active person should definitely accompany Waka and Rito. There's a decent chance that I might get killed by one or both of them, but only if they've got the rifle. I can't see any scum, however insane, giving it to Rito, and if I were to get killed by Waka, at least you'll know and can vote for him.)

oh it's you!!! <3

How did you get the communication thing? I wondered what was up with the scum question earlier, but felt it best to just answer and not make too much out of it. Although I really wanted to ask the same question back to you.

(And I *almost* swapped my follow to you from Boc after reading the thread all day but decided to just leave it and hope for the best)

Nope, I'm not scum. And, hahaha, I had planned on giving you the communicator ever since I got it, because it seemed like you'd be the best one to discuss things with.

I got the communicators out of the locked closet. I got the key in tower #3, and was going to reveal it to the group, but then you died and I was pretty freaked out, so I kept my mouth shut. (This, incidentally, is why I really wanted to make sure there was no kleptomaniac in the group. If there had been one, I didn't want them to jack whatever was in there and pass it into the hands of the damned.)

Makes sense, and thank you, I appreciate the trust and will do my best not to mess anything up.

Ok, so some info that may or may not help you.

The guns I'm not completely sure about. Both read strangely in their descriptions. I didn't understand them to actually kill. Idk if they were worded that way intentionally but they seemed very vague. It said you could choose a player to target and I believe it only mentioned changing their vote/making it not count for that phase.

I've been so hoping for someone to talk to since opening those compartments. Tried to figure out any way possible for just the people I trusted to end up in a group together this phase and it just wasn't happening. I got an experimental bomb. -_- I have no idea what that means. But when used people can cast 2 vote lists that round. It sounds like a huge risk, and I really want a second opinion on it.

Eergh. That could get pretty crazy. Does it work for everybody in the group, or just whoever's in the immediate proximity of the bomb?

Also, hmm. That might mean that other people got items as well. It's possible that you're the only one, since 5 is the central compartment, but that's a complete guess on my part.

I had 7, and the etched number matched. I thought maybe there was a pattern to the numbers and if they matched, maybe that person got an item?

And no clue how it works. I kind of feel like it might be a last resort sort of item, but I'm not known to be overly aggressive with anything or take unnecessary risks. That's why I was really wanting to hear what someone else thought about it.

Aaaaand I'm blocked for the round. Interesting.

I dunno if we're allowed to directly copy/paste from the thread, but what basically happened was that we found the cave that Kristoff was hiding in in one of the flavour posts, and it's got "thou shalt not kill" written over and over again. Roth blacked out, but he woke up again and seems to be okay. We've all been offered the chance to turn back.

Kristoff appears to be motivated by guilt, and that might be something you guys can find useful. If you fill his brain with thoughts of remorse, regret, and repentance, he might turn back into himself.

Our options are to keep pressing on or head back. There's nothing to loot in the cave.

We're apparently trying to bait Kristoff and run him into the armory. One player must run towards another one, and then that person must run towards someone else. The last person with the target in the thread is going to end up being Kristoff bait. :(

I'm not sure yet if someone can be tagged several times, or if once you have been and then targeted someone else if you are safe.

Drrr seems to have been killed and Bryce is back. Helios took a pretty bad injury but is ok now. Thought we lost him for a little bit.

I don't know how I could guilt him, other than maybe writing "thou shalt not kill" on the wall or something. I don't get the feeling from what I've read that I'd be able to actually talk to this monster. Any suggestions? Think the only thing I could maybe write with is Helios' blood :sad: Maybe a bit extreme?

Try it. Kristoff was writing with blood in the cave. Write it over and over and over.

If anybody asks, you came up with that idea all by yourself.

And, ehh, Drr getting modkilled for inactivity isn't all that surprising. I recommend making Wikey the last target, if at all possible. He's a scum, and I know that for a fact.

Does Bryce corroborate Vernon's story?

Bryce just posted that Vernon never posted in their thread. Said he locked him in there for a phase, posted all actions in his journal and that he has a gun and a medkit.

And Henry posted first, and ran to me. Suggestions who I run to? I wasn't around for this game last Lab. Not sure what to expect.

Clarifying:
Vernon locked Bryce in for a phase

Vernon posted all actions in his journal

Vernon has a gun and medkit

If I had to guess I'd say that this is a straight-up "sacrifice the last person" game, with the running. Run to anybody but Wikey. I recommend running to Helios or Boc. Heck, at this point it's not even all that evil to just straight up tell everybody that the best plan is to sacrifice Wikey. He's a scum, and everybody knows it. It's even in the scum's best interests to let him die.

And... Vernon has a gun. I don't know how to feel about that.

Ask Bryce whether Vernon had the gun and medkit before they went off together, or whether he picked them up in the room. If he had them beforehand, that's an almost 100% certainty that he's a scum.
