Player "beastcharizard" has entered the game.

Enter Action: Watch the action through half-closed eyes. If player_JDGA's cell is out of sight from the bed, then go up to the cell bars to watch.

Action: Astral project myself outside the jail so I can see where I am.

Action: Figure out which cell I am in comparatively to the other cell mates.

Action: Do some push-ups

Hopefully I can do that all.

Collectively, you all try to figure out where you are. Though no map is available, as near as you can tell, the order of the cells is based off of the awareness you have gained: player_Zymf is across from player_EspeciallyTheLies as the closest known occupied cells, with player_Blackberry to player_Zymf's left and player_Nicholas1024 in the cell to player_EspesciallyTheLies's right, and so on. As you do push-ups, the man looks at player_JDGA, laughs, and begins to walk away, back towards where he came from.

[Snakes]

Examine toilet handle
See if there is a toilet tank
Examine screws from my bed
Figure out which cell I am in comparatively to the other cell mates

[AcRv]

Action: Examine my own clothing, and the clothing of anyone who I can see from my cell.

[Zymf]

Action: Pour water from the toilet out on the hallway and then scream as loud and long as possible!

At your actions, you feel player_EspeciallyTheLies facepalm. What is done is done, though, so it cannot be undone. Perhaps some better coordination next time would be of use.

Heeey! That wasn't stupid at all xD - I was planning to make the floor slippery so that the man would fall when he passed by my cell. Then I would quickly take his keys and escape.. But okay, let's make up an escapeplan together ^^

Based on what the GM has told us, I have made this map:

[Nicholas1024]

Enter action: Attempt to open the cell door once the man has left.

99% chance this won't work, but just in case...

[EspeciallyTheLies]

action: figure out why I am in jail and ask the others who they are and why they are also in jail.

[Nicholas1024]

Enter action: Tell EspeciallyTheLies that I was arrested for aggravated jaywalking.

[EspeciallyTheLies]

lol..

i feel like there's no solution here. There's no holes in the walls, no windows to crawl through...

Action: use the hook in the toilet tank that pulls up the stopper to pick the lock on my cell door.

[orcinus_theoriginal]

action: yell

[AcRv]

Action: While Especially the Lies does his thing, verbally abuse the guard to draw his attention

[AcRv]

If I can only have one action this round, use the second one.

[TellTaleHeart]

Action: enter game

Action: tear open the mattress examine contents

[mastin2]

Y.

While the man laughs, you, a-hem, "check", yourself. Yes, it is exactly what it sounds like. However, there are things that you notice. You are wearing a two-piece prison uniform, have on underwear beneath that, and have a few minor bruises: one on your face courtesy of player_EspeciallyTheLies. Your hands are wet, thanks to player_Zymf.

You are also apparently well-endowed.
...Too much information, so I am just going to stop there.

Player "AcRv" has entered the game.

Action: Examine my own clothing, and the clothing of anyone who I can see from my cell.

Your clothing is identical to player_Cheery-Dog's in every discernible way, and as far as you can tell, this is true of all inmates.

Action: While Especially the Lies does his thing, verbally abuse the guard to draw his attention

The man notices your obscenities and is now moving your way. He will be at your cell when you enter your next action. (Thus, assume any action you type is with him there.)

ENTER ACTION:

_____

---

Figure out which cell I am in comparatively to the other cell mates

The map provided by player_Zymf is correct if rotated 180 degrees.

Examine toilet handle
See if there is a toilet tank
Examine screws from my bed

The toilet handle is secure; no amount of grabbing, jolting, or such will break it loose. There is no visible toilet tank. The screws in the bed are tight, but it may be possible to loosen them with a great amount of effort.

ENTER ACTION:

_____

action: figure out why I am in jail and ask the others who they are and why they are also in jail.

Were not you listening the first time‽ You have none. My word is law. There is no known reason for your presence here. You simply are.

Action: use the hook in the toilet tank that pulls up the stopper to pick the lock on my cell door.

As there is no visible toilet tank, this action is impossible and thus, has failed.

ENTER ACTION:

_____

I assure you, there are ways to get out. At the absolute minimum, there's five; there may be more than that. The game doesn't end when you're out of your cell, of course, but I assure you even then that there's multiple ways to win this game. You just don't know them, yet.

---

Enter action: Attempt to open the cell door once the man has left.

Enter action: Tell EspeciallyTheLies that I was arrested for aggravated jaywalking.

In a desperate act of futility, you rattle the bars on the door to your cell, praying they will open. They do not budge an inch. In a moment of frustration, you jokingly refer to bad luck for aggravated jaywalking. Hmm...that is unusual. You definitely started with no distinct personality, but it would appear you have gained something that may now resemble one.

Player "TellTaleHeart" has entered the game.

Action: tear open the mattress examine contents

You rip apart your mattress to find it is nothing but some sort of foam, and search as you might, you find nothing inside the mattress of value.

[Cheery Dog]

Action: Use Toilet

[EspeciallyTheLies]

wait wth...Cherry Dog entered the game after me and thus has the bruise I gained by running into the bars..?

Action: Make the guy fall asleep with my super ESP powers. AcRv can then grab the keys off him and unlock the cells!

[TellTaleHeart]

Hm. Well there's another place I could look.

Action: Touch fingers to back of throat and vomit in the toilet. Search contents of the vomit.

[AcRv]

Guys, given I've got the guard focused on me, if you have any wild ideas that'll take a while to pull off now would be the time. I'll try to keep him here as long as I can.

Can I know where my cell fits into that map?

People closest to me feel free to try and keep him here too. Unless you're someone with a fantastic plan and are next to me in which case speak up and we'll figure out where to send the guard. I don't think this is the sort of game we're winning on our own. Though knowing new players are affected by our previous ailments seems like it'll come up.

If the guard does fall asleep, reach for his keys

If the guard does not fall asleep, make comments about his mother with intent to get a strong negative emotional response.

[AcRv]

I'm assuming that I'm next to Cheery Dog, given the pattern

[TellTaleHeart]

Pull a Green Mile and grab the guard's balls while you search his pockets.

[Nicholas1024]

Enter action: Pray that this doesn't become a disaster. In the meantime, check whether I am also injured.

[JDGA]

Are we

sure

he's a guard?

[mastin2]

Action: Use Toilet

You fulfill your bodily needs by emptying the contents of your bowels.

...Did you really just make me say that? You are disgusting. Please tell me you at least flushed after you finished.

wait wth...Cherry Dog entered the game after me and thus has the bruise I gained by running into the bars..?

ANSWER:Yes. It is among the actions that affect all who gain awareness. Simply because you gain awareness later does not mean you have not performed the action of someone else earlier.

Action: Make the guy fall asleep with my super ESP powers. AcRv can then grab the keys off him and unlock the cells!

Unfortunately, while you clearly contain a deep link with the other prisoners, you apparently hold none with the man, thus, your action fails.

ENTER ACTION:

Action: Touch fingers to back of throat and vomit in the toilet. Search contents of the vomit.

You empty the contents of your stomach, but find that it contains nothing but prison food: what might have once been some potatoes, half-digested meat...hard to say

what

, exactly, but there is nothing of obvious use in the vomit.

ENTER ACTION:

_____

I'm assuming that I'm next to Cheery Dog, given the pattern

Correct.

If the guard does not fall asleep, make comments about his mother with intent to get a strong negative emotional response.

If not for how hypocritical it would make me, I might complain about your utter lack of originality. But an action is an action, and there is no reason for me not to accept. You insult the man's mother, and in fact you do incite a strong negative emotional response: the man punches you in the face and turns away, not yet moving away, but clearly not amused by your topic of choice.

ENTER ACTION:

Enter action: Pray that this doesn't become a disaster. In the meantime, check whether I am also injured.

You pray to what I can only assume must be an impotent god for things to not go disastrously, sending your positive vibes throughout the room. While doing this, you also feel if you are injured, and discover that you do in fact have the bruise from walking into the bars.

ENTER ACTION:

_____

I swear, there are ways to get out that some players may or may not be close to figuring out.

[TellTaleHeart]

There's another body cavity I could check... I'll save that for later though.

Action: Inspect guard (clothing, items on him, etc)
