Week 4

[bathymetric]

Good morning, New Rapture. A new day is dawning.

Sunday arrives ahead of schedule again, bringing with it the creeping dread that this is just how this is going to go. Welcome to the murdergame cycle.

At least there's another section of the city available to you! This one even has some things to do without you having to make your own fun. Which also means there's more to find about this place.

There's still over 20 of you alive... maybe that's something to celebrate? It could be worse! But... at least one of you is an attempted killer, apparently. Either way, better keep talking if you want regains!



SUNDAY | MONDAY | TUESDAY | WEDNESDAY | THURSDAY

[ ooc: Welcome to the fourth week of Unknown Seas Round 3! Please make sure to mark any investigation toplevels accordingly, post your ac, and you can reach either Mayor Fontaine or Eleanor for conversations! ]

[In this situation, Hagakure respects Aiba's confidence!]

Oooh, are you a gamer, Aibo? I gotta say, I didn't see that coming!

[Which is funny, because he's a clairvoyant. Anyway, he taps his chin as he peers around at the various cabinets...]

Can you even play any of these? You're super small. [...] Or can your hologram play?

[pairtner]

I'm capable of hacking machines. These should be no issue. In fact, I would be willing to play fair and give you a chance.

[Not that she can calculate too well how to do that, so she's going to wing it, hah]

[sixthnonsense]

[He narrows his eyes suspiciously at the eyeball hamster.]

Hacking? That just sounds like cheating to me!

[pairtner]

I'm sure that doesn't qualify as cheating, as I don't give myself any advantages nor sabotage the other player.

[Rules lawyering, apparently?]

[sixthnonsense]

[The stink eye continues!!]

So what exactly do you do, then? When someone hacks a game, they're changing how the game usually works. That's cheating!

[pairtner]

Perhaps 'hacking' is not the right word, if that' your definition. I would make the system react as if I had pressed buttons, since I can't press them myself.

[Well, it doesn't take a genius to see that would give her an advantage. It's not a stretch to realize she in theory could execute stuff a human would have trouble with]

[sixthnonsense]

[And yet, this is a perfectly solid rephrasing for Hagakure.]

Ohhh, okay! That makes sense. I mean, how else are you gonna play, right?

[In a way, it's like he's just going against the CPU in the game since Aiba's an AI... It might just turn out to be an impossibly smart CPU though.]
