Dark Opera - Bloodbath 9 (Delay much?)

[ashmite84]

Penta: My role name is Mark Frost, hence this breadcrumb dropped for Litral when he said he had a piece of paper that had what was possibly a list of crew names:

@Litral: does your piece of paper have any other insignia or

marks

on it?

It wasn't picked up so apparently the paper wasn't a list of crew names.

[ZombieSlayer54]

Someone save Ashmite, please. He IS part of the crew, after all.

[ting =)]

@blackwolf.
It's still with you and al. I was scanned last turn, but it wasn't passed to me. You'll have to pass it to me this BB I think.

@zombie.
(Insert occam's razor stuff here.) We have no guarantee that the explanation that makes you a good guy is the correct one either.

I have no role name either.

[yellowbounder]

Phew, okay I'm back. Because of my condition I was unable to post during the last move phase. Exactly what happened was the Basilisk was attacked and went berserk spraying bullets indiscriminately. I managed to blow it up but not before it's fallen gun shot me quite by pure chance! To my understanding it is neutralized, but the fact that it is still on the board makes me unsure. I'd love some healing right about now

You

managed to blow it up? Of course you did.

[BlackWolf]

It's with Al. I couldn't scan you, being at the end of the line, so i passed it to him to scan you. As far as I know, he should still have it if you and I don't.

[Albert B. Rampage]

Are you still in the vents, ting ?

[ZombieSlayer54]

Is anyone else noticing their attempts to delay/out right refuse the scanning of me?

[Albert B. Rampage]

I can't give ting the scan because he remained in the vents when I told him to come.

[ZombieSlayer54]

Interesting thing, though. Last BB phase, the general consensus, I believe, was to scan me, in order to see if I was human or not. However, last BB phase, you scanned Ting, instead, rather than giving the scanner to, say, Grek.

Which I ask you to do now, by the way.

ROFL! That's the way I understood it. The way my PM read, it sounded like your fire hydrant attack just pissed it off Ah well, let's say it was a team effort

<_<

>_>

[BlackWolf]

May I point out that both people must be in the same room to be scanned?

Now, last BB round, we were in the vents with ting. You were unavailable to be scanned.
As soon as ting get's the scanner, he may scan you to his heart's desire.

[ZombieSlayer54]

I am saying that you give the scanner to Grek this turn. Grek scans me next turn. Then we see what happens.

It wasn't picked up because I'm rather stupid and not very attentive anyway. In fact it contains three names. Not "Mark", though.

[yellowbounder]

We're all going to die!

"Hey, passengers! I managed to restore the backup power generator, which means the switches on the -- Briiiiiidddddge-"

You never actually find out what happened to the switches on the bridge. Halcyon isn't having a very good day, and her words are a bit faint, as if someone is messing with the volume levels. Those who visit the bridge notice that the lights are back on, and incidentally that most of the screens show a security camera feed from the Engine Room. Apparently, geraintm has been stuck there for quite some time.

[NO AIR]

With a metallic grinding noise, the pressure seals for the Freight Deck rumble shut. One level above, a klaxxon blares loudly, the ship's emergency response system finally realizing that not all is as it should be. Trapped inside the Io Research cargo bay, skitzer panics and levels his weapon at the wall, emptying three clips in quick succession. In the luxury-goods bay next door, Iron Man is crouched on top of a stack of crates, pistol in hand. When he sees a dark figure step through a smoking hole in the wall, he shoots without hesitation.

The hissing stops as the last cubic inch of air is sucked out of the cargo bay. Realizing he's just shot skitzer, a surprised Iron Man clambers down from the crates and takes his pulse. He's dead, shot at point-blank range... in his last moment, skitzer smiles bitterly, knowing exactly what's going to happen next. Before he even realizes what is happening, Iron Man's vision blurs too as he is silently lulled to sleep for the last time.

Iron Man and skitzer have died.

("Bah" posts are acceptable, but the dead don't talk in HM. Usually.)

The locks engage on the heavy blast door of the security office, and the small cubicle's reserves of oxygen continue to seep out into the void of space. Nightson sits in silence in the swivel chair, with SlySly cross-legged on the floor. There's not much to say, really. When the air runs out, sticking around is going to be fatal... and that door looks as solid as anything. Whoever controls the locks has screwed them over, and they are resigned to their fate. Each of them waits for the other to kick it.

After a few minutes of this, it becomes obvious that neither of them is actually going to die in a vacuum. They glance at each other, bemused.

The fifth movement phase begins now.

[Pentadragon]

SlySly, Nightson and geraintum, why do you refuse to die.

And by that I mean, if you are humans, how are you still amoung the living without any air?

[ashmite84]

move: armory

[vendetta]

they are not humans, obviously. They are probably robots: slysly claimed so, and nightson... well, he already tried to force the claiming of robot enemies -post 120-.
Is this a robot rising, being them the "unknown sentient" specie that tries to get the ship?. If not, they should claim clearly what they are and what their goals are.
Nightson should, however, die. He already fake claimed, and we know about the computer room. Maybe he is an alien and slysly a robot -i'm trying to understand why it was just slysly to suffer the magnetic problems-.

Sadly, my mysterious device was ruined by the electrical problems of the ship, so i dropped it. I can no longer help no one.

Edit: the fact that 3 guys are not dying in vacuum is also a direct hit to the Zombie story about the anarchist group. Now there is not people enough for the crew, the innocents, the terrorists, the aliens, and now the robots... and zombie the "agent".
ashmite go to the infirmary, may be i can help you -i'm not drunk anymore. Wait!!! ashmite is unconscious! how can he post/move?

[Pentadragon]

Someone should also help Albert.

Grek, I am curious as to why you did not open the Cargo Bays. It seemed to me that last Movement phase that you were.

EDIT: I would also like to ask that everyone does not run off to the armory. If a trap goes off in there, we will all be injured/killed.

[Nightson]

I am highly impressed you remembered me asking if anyone could disable robots.


I mean it doesn't make any difference because I'm actually an alien but whatever.

[Pentadragon]

That certainly makes things easier.

Can anyone kill remotely? I'ld rather have Nightson trapped before he is killed.

[Iron Man]

Bah!

[Grek]

Grek, I am curious as to why you did not open the Cargo Bays. It seemed to me that last Movement phase that you were.

I did, but the ship's security protocols decided to seal off the deck in order to prevent the air in the rest of the ship from leaking out. I was hoping it would do the logical thing and stop sucking the air out of the rooms instead.

I'm leaving the doors as they are. If SlySly kills Nightson, that's good. If not, the alien can just stay there until we have time to deal with him and some good guns.

Right now, I'm worried about geraintm. What's he doing in the engine room?

[Grek]

Also, keep out of the armoury unless you are confrimed as being protown. I don't want anyone getting guns unless they are on our side.
