TRIAL 02

[thecomputer]

Attention, Citizens! You have ten minutes to proceed to the Loyalty Chamber. Anyone who is late to the Loyalty Chamber, or who brings any weapons into the Loyalty Chamber, will be immediately executed.

[Once you arrive, you will find a large chamber, with twenty podiums spaced around the room in a circle. On the ceiling, a massive screen showing the digital eye of The Computer, turning to look at whoever is talking.]

You have one hour to come to a consensus about who to eliminate. Ties will be broken randomly.

[The floor of the chamber begins to split apart, eventually only leaving the twenty podiums as safe places to stand, above a seemingly bottomless abyss. Each podium lights up with a touch screen showing twenty user IDs (the dead are grayed out), plus the word “ABSTAIN”. However, ABSTAIN has now been grayed out as well. The trial begins now!]

Yeah! There's always a motive to every murder!

The theory that makes the most sense so far is that one of the Communists found out about Puppington but didn't know his role. Aimed for him, hit Greed instead.

That checks out to you too, right?

[fullonbraced]

Yeah! Because they were partners or whatever, right?

[alchemicals]

Right.

Unfortunately, there's no way to know if they know about anybody else, or if they just got lucky on the first night by guessing Puppington.

[fullonbraced]

Maybe someone scanned him? Then they'd know that he was a partner and hit him to confuse everyone!
