W2: TRIAL
29 REMAIN.
In the morning at 11:30am sharp, you hear the intercom speakers blare loudly across the entire airport, perfectly audible no matter where you are.
...But that's so far...! Groan. Still—even if you try your best to resist, you'll find your body moving against your will and taking you all the way over there anyway. After what feels like forever of walking, you'll arrive to the gate and see that a few things are different. Most of you probably had a feeling this is what you should expect, right?
The gate has been refurnished a little bit for the proceedings today. The metal gates will not let anyone out of the Gate Area without permission, but at least there's some snacks set out, and Allstars Coffee is still open in case you need a coffee break. Your Hosts await you near the front behind the counters, carrying various, but all expectant attitudes. After all, we knew this was coming.
► OOC Notes
Welcome to trial! Over the course of the next nine hours, characters will need to discuss the circumstances, investigate relevant locations, and put together theories about the truth behind this week's murders!
Trial will last from 9am PST/12pm EST until 6pm PST/9pm PST. There will be an hour-long break starting 1pm PST/4pm EST; while players are free to continue tagging during this time, it is intended to allow players to take a minute to eat, rest, what have you.
Note: DM the mods if you intend to use a curse during trial. Curse duration may be altered or subject entirely to mod approval depending on how many curses are in play. Curse duration must end before break.
Lastly, voting is mandatory. Please be absolutely sure to get your IC vote in before the end of trial, or there are severe IC consequences!
Good luck!

I'm guessing not, but... Can you tell us anything about why there are so many?
no subject
Not at the moment... I would review the evidence closely.

I know areas are usually cleared off on Fridays, but if we find anything unusual and it didn't come from lost claims this time, is it possible it's related to a case...?
no subject
I'm not sure what you could be referring to...

... do you invite bullying, Rupert?
[ ok but for real ]
If it happened there... it must come from someone with access, no?
no subject
[anyways]
Do you think it's worth checking out the lounge at some point because of that, or do you think it's just... unrelated to what happened that night?
no subject
There are no murderous activities permitted in the team lounge. I do not believe you will find any clues there.
