| Do we have two talkies? Ive only seen one. |
No, we only have one. But if I understand Kristoff correctly, there should be one in the room to the north. |
|
|
| Do we have two talkies? Ive only seen one. |
We only have one right now, but we think the second one could be in this time period. |
|
Ah that makes sense. Thanks.
I must have missed part where Kristoff mention that. |
|
And brave soul you are Lincoln. Do come out of this in one piece.
##follow: Lincoln |
|
I have the medical kit.
Though I must say I doubt it's effectiveness.
I do not recognize any of these remedies.
These are not the herbs I am familiar with.
Still I will watch after it just the same. |
|
Arimnestos tiny knife could also help us if someone comes down with an ailment.
We could cut the one with the ailment and remove their bad blood.
I am told bloodletting is very effective for curing diseases. |
|
I'm still messing with maps. Couple things I noticed, they have their first room north marked as a portal room (assuming that's the meaning of the purple color and also matches the first room from the past group). That probably indicates the swap in direction choices when they exited #9880, or someone left their group. Perhaps the person that died or was injured?
Also, their map shows no room to the East of room #2223. |
|
| Pretty sure purple on pai chan's map is for items since that's where we found the chalk. |
|
I'm not sure what wait for us ahead, but I hope to find you safe at the other side, Lincoln.

Ahh ok, that's also where Theseus disappeared through the portal so I was confused. |
|
Art of medicine has evolved much in the time between our births, dear Dern. You might not know what items these are but when the time comes I can help guide you in its usage.
I am trained in combat medicine. I know my way around wounds inflicted by weapons.

That is very kind of you Sir Mikhail.
I will have to take you up on that offer. |
|
I don't exactly like the idea of heading into a room we're completely aware of that has a trap, but who am I to argue if I'm not the one leading the pact? I just hope this does not cost us any unwilling lives.
##Exit: North |
|
| Dennis, will you be able to jet pack again in north room? Maybe we should discuss a bit when it is best to use it next. |
|
| Dennis, do you think the most recent map Dern posted correctly reflects the rooms you had described to you? |
|
I can go up in the next room.
No, I don't unless he change it this phase. I posted what i thought last phase but I think we phased out right after. Ill be home in ~30 so I can post what I know/don't know again |
|
| Also, our goal is to get Kristoffs package and the other wallow, correct? Have we been explained why this is important? |
|
| I think we ought to get his and maybe make our way to the one this room dropped off |
|
| What about the staircase to the South? |

| Well, both are worth exploring but I dunno if we can even do anything if there are immortals there. Don't we need the sword first? It's worth discussing though. |

I don't think we need the sword to get the Immortals. The sword is for killing shades and Willis. |
|
| Oh I guess I was confused or something. I thought they were sealed and needed the sword to free them but maybe I was just confused |
|
| Can someone tell me the dimensions of room 1117? |
|
| I mean, if we think an Immortal is up those stairs, it doesn't really make sense rto me to have everyone heading away from it. |
|
was it 3 width and 2 length?
There is something that Dern messed up that needed to be corrected, but i cant find what that was |

Thanks, I must have missed your post at the end of last phase. I would appreciate if you could repost it.
He did post this map on page 12
|

Not really.
|
| I think we ought to get his and maybe make our way to the one this room dropped off |
I believe the room it was dropped into may also be trapped, so we need to decide what our priorities are.
|
| Can someone tell me the dimensions of room 1117? |
Have we been in this room (1117)? I'm confused where this room number came from, I don't remember seeing it mentioned before. |
|
Are you alright? Do you need any help? |
|
I can confirm that that is all correct. I do not know about the stuff in the northwest tho, I think that came from Kristoff.
Did I say what was in that room with the locked door? |
|
|

I don't believe so. You mentioned not wanting to tell us what was in one of the rooms several times, but I was never clear if it was the locked room or another one. Brittany did name that room when she mentioned items during that phase.
|
|
Alright I guess I should keep that to myself for now.
Now that I think about it more, I think that it could very well possibly be a trap- but with a benefit if you complete it correctly. |
|
| I think i just had 1177 typed in instead of 1144 |
|
| Oh, got it. Do you still need the dimensions of #1144? |

Once we find the other walking talker maybe we can divide and concur a bit more.

Sophia gave us a map from the other team which is why all those room are only colored in the past.
And I am really curious what is behind that door.
Though I guess it doesn't entirely matter until we actually have a key for it. |

I'll be away this evening, if someone would note anything I might miss I would greatly appreciate it. :) Thanks!

Guys, Carl "walks" among us yet is all alone.
That's all I got - just taking a stab but maybe it means Carl is either close to us as in around us somewhere, or maybe he's in the parallel room in the past to us? |

We'll be able to time travel soon. It would be interesting if he'd time travel and end up in the same room as us. |
|
I do like that idea General, but I think Maria's teleportation would take effect next phase by which point Carl might have moved on.
Also, I wouldn't feel safe having Maria go alone because if Carl can steal the staff, who knows what else he may have, or what his ability may be. |

Not too late but if he's not in this room we'd have no way to communicate with Maria whichever way she goes.
I feel like if we go to the past for Carl we should do it all together.
All things said though I doubt Carl would be in our same room.
He would have no reason to have waited in the previous room.

No it would be instant but we would have no way of communicating with her after she left.
|
|
| Yeah, I'd rather have her stay since noone can go with her anyways and her going alone is not a good idea. |
|
| Maria was it explained why you can time travel without your amulet? You said you needed to go to the past to collect it but now it doesn't seem to matter? |

From what I recall the amulet isn't what makes her time travel.
That's needed for another reason.
To complete her objective and for personal reasons.
Otherwise she wouldn't have traveled back to the past in the first place to find it. |

I take this to be that he is still quite much alive, not necessarily close to us per say. |
|
| I don't think it is wise trusting her so much given the ambiguity over her role and now objective. Ajax is far more trustworthy on both accounts as I can't see his role being evil. |
|
Maybe he walks among us because he is now in our time again.
But he's in another room by himself. |
|
| And Dern she said she needed the Amulet to time travel and that she had lost it in the maze so could no longer time travel. |
|
|

I was willing to trust you when others were not.
Maria deserves as much trust until she proves otherwise. |
|
|
| And Dern she said she needed the Amulet to time travel and that she had lost it in the maze so could no longer time travel. |
I do not recall that.
Though she might not have known she could time travel until it was revealed we could move between the rooms.
Like how Ajax didn't know he could recharge his time powers until that was a revealed thing. |

I feel that you need to reminded that you gave us no reason to trust you, yet all of us here were willing to take a chance that you were worth the trust. Maybe you should consider doing the same for us. |

Idk. There is something inconsistent in her amulet story as she did say it was needed for time travel. I have the same objectives as everyone else does and none talk of a personal mission.
Just think we should be more cautious as to who we give things to. I think Ajax is far more trustworthy than her as his role is pretty much confirmed and he has no known alternative objective.
(once again, no offence Maria) |

Us?
And you did not trust me for why you followed me. I was followed for time travel. I feel little trust was needed in that decision.
I understand making leaps of faith in terms of trust when needed but why now when we have a perfectly trustworthy Ajax? |

Ajax said he would be busy and suggested me and Maria.
I think that was all there was to it. |
|
I think being busy wouldn't matter for the walkie-talkie.
I guess its up to you guys if you want to trust someone with no confirmed role, a conflicting story and an alternative "objective". I have said what was on my mind so I guess it is up to you to make your own decision. |

I want to make something clear. I trust you. If you would tell me that there isn't a trap in a room, I wouldn't hesitate for a second to be the first to enter the room. You have earned that trust.
What I meant was that we have to be willing to trust each other here. We are a team and mistrust will only make things harder for us.
Call me naive, but I trust everyone here to have my back if I would need it. |
|
| I hope you feel better, Willis. Take your time. |
|
|
| Maria was it explained why you can time travel without your amulet? You said you needed to go to the past to collect it but now it doesn't seem to matter? |
No, that's not it. I never needed the amulet to time travel. I'm a magical girl. I got here through my own power, but once I arrived, something made my powers not work. I came with you because I wanted to go to the past to collect the amulet and I didn't think I could time travel any other way anymore, but then I got some of my power back after that flash in Room 9880.
The amulet still matters to me and I still mean to find it. I'm not leaving this place until I get it back. It's why I came here. The reason I'm not going immediately to the past is because I'm in this group trying to help you all. |
|
| The amulet is why my signature is "Don't forget". |
|
Ok good.
I'm glad I remembered it correctly. |
|
|
Ok good.

I think Kristoff must've just misread something. |
|
| Oh so you can confirm the amulet is some other objective? Does the amulet actually do something? |
|
I know I might be sounding like a TOTAL TOTAL TOTAL bitch but didnt all of us just say we would kill Kristoff if anything silly was happening?? I mean to me that doesnt sound like we were just giving trust up to him!!
Im probably just like really stupid :/ This maze has made me CRAZY! |
|
|
| Oh so you can confirm the amulet is some other objective? Does the amulet actually do something? |
Finding it is not my current official objective (finding the sword and the guardians is), and I don't know what the amulet can do. It's just very important to me, so finding it is a personal goal. |

I think someone suggested it as a last resort if he refused to work with us, and I remember saying that I would punish him if he messed up the time travel by getting drunk. |

| Well there is plenty of time to discuss or chat really. |
|
| As I said earlier, I am definitely not in favor of going to a room we already know in advance to be trapped. But obviously there are pros and cons to every situation, so what exactly are we even taking this risk for? What's in this room that is so special that we're so willing to risk lives for? |

Kristoff's box, I think. |
|
| I'd rather go into a room knowing there's a trap rather than go in blindly, even if knowing the trap's there doesn't mean it can be kept from triggering. |

That's what I thought, but that doesn't answer the question as to what exactly the box is, or what it does. What good is this box? I thought our goals were clear: discover the sword & immortals, we may need his staff but unless we know this is gonna help, what's the point if we're risking losing lives? |

The box is supposed to have the other walkie-talkie in it and a defensive item, but I know what you mean. It might not be worth it to go after those items compared to the sword and immortals. If Kristoff's information about the items in the box is right, I think the items can probably help a lot, but it'll still be risky. |
|
I'm looking at Dern's map again and wondering if we should try going East first, and then coming back here and going after the box.
|
|
| Or we could split up and have one group go North and another East (I'm sorry if this has been suggested before! My day's been busy and I haven't followed things as closely here). We could meet back in here and continue. |
|
| I don't think it has. I thought of it but didn't suggest it since I'd rather we all continue on together |

We think the other walking talker is in the box.
If we have both maybe we can make 2 teams that can keep in contact with each other.
... in theory.
That would be very helpful in completing our objective. |
|
^ I would be down for that since I'm not exactly excited about walking into a room knowing there's a trap... but I'm also not excited about splitting up, so it's a tough situation.
Ohhh this is the defensive item and the other walkie talkie box? How did we figure out where it is, or that it even existed? So confusing. Thanks, Maria. :) |

Kristoff told us about it after he got out of the Red Room trap. |
|
| No one has considered the fact that Willis may have wanted him to bring us here? |
|
|
| No one has considered the fact that Willis may have wanted him to bring us here? |
I've considered it yes.
The fact that there is an item and a trap in that room means we'll likely have to give something up to get something good.
Thankfully we have this medical kit to hopefully avoid anything too severe. |

I have been considering that.

I believe we talked about that possibility right after Kristoff got out and told us about it. |

| I still think the defensive item and walkie talkie are enough of an asset to go for it. The box trap seems like a test or puzzzle more than life threatening, but you never know. I think we should go on as if there were no delay, Willis could be trying to get us to change our strategy. |
|
Get well Willis.
I trust Maria for now. But must remember can never trust anyone 100%. I do not doubt there are many ways that turn people from light to dark. We must keep that in mind.
We are in crazy situation. I have seen the bravest soldiers lose their minds in much less stress inducing situation. Anyone can falter. |
|
| (I hope you get better Willis, so we can kill you) |
|
Willis asked me to pick it up "for him" so its strange there is a trap there. I wonder what a defensive weapon is too. Cerberus?
Splitting up cannot be an option. If the maze shifts or some other event occurs we only play into the hands of those who are evil. |

I don't think it's strange at all that he's asking you to go into a trapped room to get something for him, and splitting up isn't the only way to possibly play into the hands of evil. We can all be together and unintentionally do that. |
|
Well the wording of the flavour would make it strange/why not just kill me there then make me walk to a trap.
And yes but splitting up quickens that process which I would hope no one would want. Splitting in this scenario doesn't really change anything... Either way the trap activates. Either on 1 person in a group of 10 or 1 person in a group of 20. We have a medkit too. |

He's an evil wizard. He can send you into a trap if he wants to.
And I meant split up so one group could grab the East exit item while the other group got the North exit stuff. It has nothing to do with not activating the trap. |
|
Ahh I see. People mentioned going East to avoid the trap earlier so I assumed that was your reason.
Well if the maze shifted it would not be good. I also am not a fan of large groups splitting off. Someone doing a recon mission like Ari is better as it risks only 1 person being separated, but half the group this early on is very risky if a room shift or some other event occurred. |

|
|

Yeah! I like it. |
|
|
|

Is it worth going East first, then north to take advantage of this? |

It wouldn't kick in for Erebos until phase 12 if that is what you're thinking.
And normally I would say splitting up was bad.
I only thought it was a possible strategy if we have both of the walking talkers and we could exchange where we are on the map at any given time. |
|
Oh I misread I thought the inactive counter didn't start until phase 9.
That actually might work now that I think of it. |
|
| Isn't Phase 12 the earliest we can kick someone? Meaning it wouldn't work? |
|
Well, if we don't try it we might never find out.
##Push: Erebos
I'm sorry Erebos, but 2 posts in almost 9 phases is not really that helpful for the group. |
|
Or Phase 11? In case it is now...
##Push: Erebus |
|
| (Speaking to Willis, it will start next phase) |
|

It could be. |

I was thinking the same thing about Kristoff's box as I was coming on to post.
The only thing is do we think Erebos will come back? (I didn't even know there was an Erebos).
Because if he were to come back, I would at least like to hear what his role is first. If he is going to be semi-active and has a good role that could be extremely beneficial, I don't want to kill him off over someone else who is just as unhelpful and has a less impactful role. (I don't know if it's shallow but it's something to think about). |
|
| Rhea is also in active. So we have two options |
|
| Rhea comes around more than Erebos right? I don't think I've ever seen him post. |
|
| I haven't seen Rhea in a while but I'm pretty sure she has more than two posts |

| We'll know who's inactive next phase. |
|
| I like Airlea's idea of going East first. |
|
| Same. We ain't got nuthin but time. |
|
| Should we just push our inactive first everywhere? |
|
| Probably, but in some cases when there isn't a trap, it shouldn't necessarily matter. Voting would give us something to do I guess. |
|
|
| We'll know who's inactive next phase. |
will people be marked next phase or will the counter merely start?
because if it's just the timer we won't know for 3 phases after that. |
|
It's a good thing Carl didn't end up exiting normally.
He'd have the staff And a push-monkey in Erebos. |
|

Oh, I'm not sure. I interpreted Ajax's message as meaning that we'd be able to push people, so we'd know who was inactiv by that phase. I don't think Erebus has posted at all in the past three phases, so I thought he'd show as inactive. |
|
| I like the idea of going east first to get the package, then coming back and convince some of our more quiet members to volunteer go into the trapped room first. And then finally going to see that immortal. |
|
| What happened to Taylor and why is his name red?! Did he ever explain what was going on? |
|
When I read the inactive notice, I thought it applied just to the other group - I didn't even realize we had inactive people. That being said, I have noticed Rhea at least viewing the thread a few times.
I like the idea of going East first so we can push Erebos into a possible trap instead of one of our own. I support it fully, for what it's worth. |

There was a gurgling noise in the background as the group looked around. Taylor had been shaking uncontrollably for quite some time. Dern approached him cautiously and reached out a hand.
"Are you okay Taylor?" He queried. Taylor's eyes were bloodshot as he looked over.
At that moment he fell on the floor. There were gasps from the group as they watched him convulse. Blood poured out of his nose. He finally stopped shaking and lay on the floor, silent and still. Maria walked over and checked his pulse.
"He's dead" She confirmed to the group.
There was a moment of silence as the death hung over the room.
Taylor has been modkilled by request. In order to prevent any potential confusion or misdirection down the line, an official announcement will be posted in the news section shortly.
|
|
| These suicides are getting serious. |
|
:\ Well, this is sad. I guess that explains my last question.
Bye Taylor. |
|
Both their names start with T.
Tyrese dont do it. |

I think it's a little more frustrating knowing had he just gone inactive we could have potentially kept one of us alive longer instead. :(
|
|
| The other group must really think we're terrible if we keep having these self-induced deaths. |
|
|

Maybe we will benefit from his role being passed to someone more active? Says his role will be distributed. Not sure how though. |

TAYLOR!!!!! :((( -runs to body- OMG :((

OOC: I am here, I'm just dealing with a bit of outside stuff at the moment. I find it a bit difficult to keep up with our party still so large, that everytime I check the game, there's another 20-30 pages to go through, unlike last Lab, where I only had to deal with 5-6 pages. We have a lot of meaningless chatter. That being said, I would be contributing a lot more if I had the chance. I'll let y'all know if something catches my eye though. |
|
I can't believe we lost another one.
* Walk up to Taylor's body and says a short prayer *
May you find peace with God.
|
|
| Well at the very least it's nice to know you're still around! |

True about much of useless talking.
My old ears get very tired when young, eager people have so much to say about unimportant things. But a man must keep up. I will carry my weight around here. |

Don't worry guys I'm not about to get sick and die anytime soon (just in the middle of exam period as I mentioned previously so I may not post as much, but I am still keeping up tabs).
I do think I missed one thing though, this inactive talk and this whole "pushing" notion - would anyone mind filling me in on that? |

There is an update from Willis on the main board.
(and glad to hear you won't be going anywhere :) )

Inactive Pushing:
This has been brought up a few times in the past and was something we were heavily considering going into the game. After much discussion we've decided to begin implementing this mechanic. Essentially it will punish players who don't post for extended periods for no good reason, and reward and further the game of those who do.
All players must make a concerted effort now to make a public post in the phase threads. If a player does not make a public post in the phase thread (journals don't count) within 3 phases, they will be considered inactive. There are exceptions to this rule if the person has come to one of us beforehand and explained their absence. An explained absence will not be subject to the inactive pushing rule. Please tell us if you're going to be away.
If a player doesn't post within 3 phases and is deemed inactive, their name on the player list at the start of the phase thread will be followed with the letter I in brackets. e.g. Willis (I). Any player who has this extension after their name on the first post within a phase thread will be eligible for inactive pushing. This means that players in a room with that person will be able to opt for pushing the inactive player through the exit. To all intents and purposes, the player in question will be considered to have exited first if this happens.
This can be done in the thread by posting ##Push: Player name. If half of the group or more vote on this decision, it will be enacted. The player in question will then move through the exit first. This means if only two players are travelling together and one is inactive, the first (active) player can opt to push the inactive player. In the very rare case of more than half the players being inactive (thus making it impossible to reach a consensus 50% vote), only the active players need carry out the vote to push the inactive player.
The inactivity will kick in on the third phase. So if you make a post on Phase 9 but don't post again after that, you will be considered inactive on Phase 12. Thus you must make a public post every other phase. If you genuinely can't be around for an extended period speak to us and you will be exempt. If you are busy and can't contribute in the threads on that day, just make a single public post somewhere in the thread.
If you have any questions regarding this mechanic, please let me know.
----
After some discussion there's a slight amendment to be made to the pushing rule.
It will still kick in how it was discussed, but in some cases a room that is triggered to impact the first player in the room may actually rely on that player being an active participant. A room designed to cause discord and generate discussion can lose its edge if the person it hits has no stake in the game. This may seem a cruel twist but it's part and parcel of the gameplay process, and the balance sometimes requires that active participants are the recipient of some negative "Labyrinth effects".
There is a very solid set of rules governing which rooms will impact the pushed inactive, and which rooms won't. A room that doesn't will instead impact the first active follower.
Again I will re-iterate, this is not a workaround to annoy the players. It's a workaround that is actively required to keep the impact and effectiveness of the game in motion.
We cannot publically discuss the ruling behind which rooms are subject to this and which rooms aren't without releasing too much information on game design. We will discuss the rules fully once the game is over.
As with all things written into the game, we are not acting on a case by case basis and judging a situation via personal bias. By following a strict set of pre-written rules, the game is not subject to the personal opinions of the game masters.

Ahh ok, just saw it, thanks Airlea!
|
|
| Oh, one thing did pique my interest. Sophia gets maps (Pai-Chan's) every phase and hears the occasional voice, correct? |
|
| Waiting is killing me. Would just like to move on |
|
| We have about 2-3 hours left? Do we even have time to switch from going north to going east? |
|
| Why would we go East yall??? My head is still wonky over poor Taytays death :(( ITS GONNA BE ME NEXT |
|
| If we try to change and I don't lead North some one else would be leading and spring the trap. We should probably continue as we planned since without the delay it would have already happened. |
|
|
| We have about 2-3 hours left? Do we even have time to switch from going north to going east? |
It's possible.
but we'd all have to do it or we'll split up.
Or at least all the people who didnt just follow would have to swap.
and it is unfortunate we lose another team player like this. |
|
|
| Oh, one thing did pique my interest. Sophia gets maps (Pai-Chan's) every phase and hears the occasional voice, correct? |
I got a map a few times and sometimes it gives me info like the three injured people thing. I can't respond back and I hear it almost once a phase. |
|
| Also it's too late to head east this time. |
|
| *sits down by north door, closes eyes* |
|
|
| Also it's too late to head east this time. |
That's what I thought. It's unfortunate this idea came up too late. Oh well. I'll go take a nap then. :) |
|
| Taylor, I never knew you, but may your soul be at peace. Lincoln, good luck to you on the other side as I may not be around until the next phase, I hope to see you in one piece. |
|
| Just a thought - but maybe the map being communicated to Sophia isn't by Pai Chan? I would imagine any sort of communication attempt would deal with voices, not images. Unless... it's Mark - and I say that because if I recall correctly he would always take pictures and was all about this social media craze, so maybe the sharing of an image is his ability to communicate? Just a thought. |
|
| :O Whats happening to Lincoln?? :(( |

|
| Lincoln you are very brave :)) You should be proud of yourself!! I am proud of you. I am way to afraid to ever do that!! |
|
The group readied themselves. It was time to move on.
Phase 8 will end in about an hour's time. Anybody who has not yet posted an exit action may do so. No other actions can be used, and no existing exit actions can be changed. |
|
ah ending a bit early this time.
I am ok with this. |
|
| Shame we can't throw Taylor's shoe (or Taylor) through first. :x |
|
| Yeah cant we just throw his body in there first LOL??? Thats so mean!! |
|
Disturbing his dead body seems a bit... unseemly.
Best to let the dead rest. |
