Worst-case scenario, tryin'a get to that point will be an adventure in-and-of-itself, probably? Here, spare flashlight an' some granola bars. You're, uh, not allergic to nuts or chocolate, right?

Granolaman has replaced Sleepy.
I will probably be ending the night at noon on Tuesday, hopefully that gives Granola time to catch up on everyone else's nonsense.

Sending out night results. This might take a while, so please be patient.
No talking about your results until day officially starts, even if you have night-talk. Thank you for your consideration.

Finally, a new day dawns. Somehow people are aware of this even though there's an unending void outside. Maybe there's a sun there, who knows.
When everyone gathers for the next meeting, though, two people aren't there.
A quick search reveals Reyweld's corpse.
(05-09-2016, 01:27 PM)SneakyRobot Wrote: »Detective Trenchcoat & The Sewer Goddess Conspiracy
Reyweld, or Detective Trenchcoat, had been working to uncover the truth behind the Sewer Goddess Conspiracy before being pulled into the shareholder retreat. From the moment the PowerPoint concluded, Reyweld knew that the conspirators here were all recruited by the Sewer Goddess for her plans.
But due to amnesia, Reyweld wasn't sure if he was trying to stop the Sewer Goddess or work with her.
Nonetheless, he had a wide array of investigative skills, which he could use to find out someone else's alignment.
Unbeknownst to him, whenever he checked someone's alignment, his own would change to the opposite. If he checked a town player, he'd be aligned with the conspiracy afterwards. If he checked a conspiracy player, he'd be aligned with the town. If he checked a third-party, his alignment would be unchanged.
He was unaware of his own alignment. Despite this restriction, his goal was to be on the winning team when game ended.
You can't figure out what his alignment was when he died.
Reyweld's death is shocking, but that's not the only surprise. Nobody can find Paranoia anywhere.

Dammit Nottles you summoned me into this corporate nightmare and now we're all trapped. I was outside of this gaping universe trying to work out a deal with the powers-that-be for our continued existence, but nope, had to speak the incantation and doom me to face oblivion with the rest of you.
Thanks brah.

Giving up awfully easy, there, 'Nola. Surely, vanishing mid-negotiations would be cause for concern among the powers-that-be, and they'd be trying to find you to resume negotiations.
Assuming, that is, that their discovery of you slash arrival at here is not, in fact, the cause of the end of all things. Hm.
Still! That's not to say that nothing is to be done. If you were actually negotiating to save reality, then you probably have some idea of the form The End will take, yeah? In theory, with that knowledge, we could figure out things we might be able to do to slow or stop the coming oblivion, or something. Right?
Anyway, if I did summon you, it wasn't intentional. Doesn't change that you've been summoned, but, y'know. Thoughts that count, probably. Don't suppose you'd care to share this dread chant, such that it might not be repeated? Or that you shared this dread chant with those beyond, that they might summon you to them? Iunno, anything?
That's all assuming you're truthful and benevolent and all that, of course, but that basically goes without saying, and probably nothing to be done if you're not, I guess.

Oh, right, dead person.
We could probably jury-rig a coffin from a cabinet and duct tape, at least for storage purposes. Seems irreverent to just chuck 'em into the void. Heck, maybe someone here can do benevolent necromancy. Or malevolent necromancy, in which case the void is probably a safer option, if that would even work. The universe might wrap back around to here for all I know. Whatever.
Sh'we, like, put together a search party for Paranoia, or...?

What, um, what happened here? Um. Oh no. I mean, um. So the, um, conspiracy is picking us off? But. But why? Oh. Right. Controlling interest. Um. So, um. We should try, and um, figure out who the conspirators are, then? Um. Oh dear.

It's equally possible that someone not part of the conspiracy is trying to off members of the conspiracy to keep shares out of their hands. Can't be sure until we track down the killer, and I'm not sure how we'd do that. And some fraction of us wouldn't want them tracked down, probably, so who knows!
The point is, assumptions like that are kinda dangerous, I think? All we really know at this point is: a murder happened, and a disappearance happened. Can't even qualify the disappearance as a kidnapping since that'd necessitate someone culpable, and unless and until we can find Paranoia or any clues related thereto, nothing to be proven to that end. So the relevant questions are probably "who's the killer", "where's Paranoia", and "why"?
Supposing the answer to "why" is "because conspiracy," how does that help us identify the murderer or murderers or any accomplices to the murder?

Um. Would it be too much, um, to ask. Um. What your, um, action, um, is?
Also, um. What traffic? Has the jet, um, bred more jets? That would be, um, pretty cool.
Sorry if I'm being, um, overly nosy or um, anything. Or, um. Asking too many questions, or, um, the wrong questions, or, um. I don't know.
