Mod Notes –

Good luck! You are still allowed to request a personal PT. Any mechanic related question can be asked! Did you know that Zaphkael paid for a private consultation with a person named "Urs4Life". True story. Found it during the audit.

With 19 Alive, It Takes 10 to Lynch.

Day 1 Ends In (expired on 2019-08-09 04:44:39).

Intermission II: Dear Diary

Dear diary,

Today was yet another failure. Nothing useful came out of these meetings so far, and I'm losing hope. I don't know ho-

"Mrs. Coleman? Am I interrupting?"
Thalia sighed. "Yes. Yes, you are, Peterson. What is it?"
"We decrypted a part of the Project ARCH folder. Apparently there's two files, one of which we have successfully decrypted." Mr. Peterson was nervous around Thalia, he always was. And with good reason. Thalia Coleman was a very dangerous and powerful woman who wouldn't back out of killing someone to achieve her goals.
This time though, it wasn't because of her. It was because of something far, far worse.

"Yes?", she replied, "I'm waiting?"
"Okay ehm... It appears to be a paper on a new neurosubduer with some very powerful effects. It's been extensively researched over the past few years: in every pod they sold to enter everHope, a small amount of that neurosubduer was added. While in the simulation, it could be injected to the unwilling test subject. The pod is able to monitor neural and physical data after injection to study its effects."

"You have to be kidding me?! Were they that cruel?"

"There is more. It was designed as a military tool to create super soldiers. It enhances strength, numbs pain and has several other effects. By the time we shut down everHope, it was almost fully functioning."

"Almost?"

"They weren't able to modify the horrible side effects of abstention. It's highly addictive, but once one no longer takes it, obsession and insanity are what follows. The last reported test subject died biting through his wrists.
The worst part is that they chose not to research any further, and released it like that.
Mrs. Coleman, this is the new drugs that people are using everywhere. If we find Simotech and stop the production... I'm not sure we want to see that."

"I can't believe this..." For the first time in a very long time, Thalia actually showed that she was frightened. Simotech's crimes never seemed to stop, and they were always a step ahead.
"Peterson, is there anything else we can do?"

"I believe so? With this paper we know all about the serum, so we can continue the research they did and try to synthetize an antidote, a cure, anything that stops the horrible side effects."

"Good. Thank you. Get as many people working on that. I still want that second part of the folder, though.
Dismissed."

WhemeStar was lynched. Their role PM was the following:

Spoiler: WhemeStar Flip

This is what happens when we try to play God. This is what happens when we believe we can change His creations, and make our own.
Yes, I'm a very religious person. In this time and age, it might be hard to believe. People are wild about science, about technology, we have created worlds and animals and plants. Everything we eat is genetically modified, to optimize taste and growth. I too, have tried my hand at playing God.

But, is this really how it's supposed to be? Is this really what we want, what we need? Did all of this happen just because, or because we're too stubborn to see that we can't just change everything until we like it? Where's the beauty in a flower that's no longer itself, forced to have colours and scents that completely go against its nature? Where is the beauty in once so rare green eyes, when everyone can just ask for a baby with them?

There's a certain beauty in imperfection, and imperfection is what makes this world perfect. How can we enjoy anything when it's no longer genuine, when it's no longer itself?

Maybe one day, I'll be able to apologize to God for trying to be Him. For trying to make imperfection perfection, even when I should have known the beauty lies in the former.

One day.

Intermission V: Dear Daughter

Thalia's appartement, San Diego, 2180

Dear daughter, my sweet Mercy


At the time I'm writing this, you're only a few months old. You're still too young to understand this world, and naively only see the beauty of it. Or maybe I'm just bitter?

Usually, I write these letters to my own mom, but due to recent events I'm writing one to you, too. I want you to know who I am, and not just know what people tell you I am.

Soon, you'll grow up. You'll want to be an adult as soon as you can, because you won't like being treated like a child. Because you'll want to fit in, I'm certain you'll ask me for the latest cybernetic eye implant, and for the newest holo tablet. You will also refuse to admit that you want those to fit in, and instead try to convince me that you just like them.

At some point, you'll have history classes, and learn that this world isn't as pretty as you once believed it was. You'll learn that I, too, played part in that history. You see, I don't write history books. I don't know what people will say about me. They might call me a hero, they might call me a villain. What I do want you to know, is that I did it all because I believed it was right. Because I believed it was just.

All I ever wanted was a world for you to grow up, one that is as beautiful as you once thought it was. I blamed myself for a very long time, wanting to raise a child in this cold, horrible world. Was it selfish? I suppose so. I've had many sleepless nights because of this, trust me.

But then you came. I fell in love in with your little face. With that lovely, innocent sparkle in your eyes. I fell in love with your endless curiosity, and your endless kindness.
If a child can show these qualities, why can't we?

When I saw you, I knew that talking about improving everything wouldn't be enough. There were people out there that harmed others, and they could harm you. I had to do what I did, for you, because I wanted to protect you.

I'm not sure when you'll read this letter, or if you'll read it at all. If you do, please know that I love you. I always will.
Promise me one more thing, will you? Promise that you'll never try to be like me. You're perfect, and I'm not. I'll never be. Can you promise me that?

With all the love there is left in this world
Mom.

Spoiler: FISHMONGER ROLE PM

Many people here are angry. Some even more than just angry. Having heard about everything that happened, I can understand that sentiment.
I was lucky enough to not be here. I saw everything on the newsfeed, while on my honeymoon in New Beijing, seventh district of the moon. We stayed there when all of this happened, because it wasn't safe to come back.
Three years on the moon. It sounds so surreal, looking back. Don't get me wrong, I don't think it was worse than being here, not at all; I don't think there was any place worse than earth during the Lead War.
It just... Up there, you experience a different kind of loneliness. A different kind of despair, because nobody you know can reach you if something goes wrong. Communication between earth and moon is still slow, even years after the New Lunar Colonies were established.

When everything finally calmed down, We came back. Having stayed in a low gravity zone for so long, rehabilitation was long and exhausting. It's when we found out my husband had a weak heart.

He didn't survive.

I don't have anything to do with this war. I have never been part of it, and I am not responsible to do anything at all. I'm willing to drown myself in my work to forget my pain, but I will not fight your wars.

Remember that well.

[Firebringer]

This atory is one I've been wanting to tell and to share for years now. It means a lot to me that I've finally been able to do so, and I'm very thankful for that.

Thank you to everyone who stayed with me during this game. It has been boring, frustrating, angonzing and so many other things at times, but I'm happy that you were willing to see the positives and stayed. Thanks.

Also a very special mention to firebringer. I honestly couldn't have had a better comod. You did so much more than I asked of you, and I don't know how I can repay you. Thank you man.

That said, I'm glad this gane ended. It was a drag for everyone, and as a mod it's painful to see how your game is a burden on everyone still playing it. I'm sorry for that. I hope you enjoyed it at least somewhat!

ur overselling my involvement.

you did most of the game, i just helped out when i had some time and you were incapacitated.

interesting game.

I was rooting for scum and then the scum shot other scum and my hopes were dashed. I was really on team scum this game and you guys let me down. I don't know if i can ever root for scum players again.

[Firebringer]

it was really funny to see sakura vest up and then get guarded by (i think it was bambi) same night.
then the two had an argument about it next day because they thought scum tried to kill sakura

I had many lolz at that
