NO. DEATH IS NOW PERMANENT.

STAGE 2

"IT IS FINISHED!" roared THE GAME. Its voice echoed through the simulation room and shook the Island within the simulation.

The dead arose and everyone felt their feet drift up away from the ground. The beach, the palm trees, and even the sunshine rippled and swirled around them. When their surroundings stopped changing, they found themselves in a room overlooking a large airplane hanger. It was filled with a literal labyrinth of crates stacked 15 feet high.

"What's this?" one of the recruits asked.

"OH THIS?" THE GAME chortled, "CONSIDER THIS A PREVIEW OF FATE OF COMMANDER REGULUS AND HIS CREW."

"Who?" someone else asked.

"NEVER MIND. WELCOME TO STAGE 2. ONCE YOU ARE ALL RELEASED INTO THE MAZE BELOW, DEATH WILL REMOVE YOU FROM THE SIMULATION. WHEN YOU ARE LYNCHED, YOU WILL BE BROUGHT BACK UP HERE TO SEE YOUR TEAMMATES AND ENEMIES CONTINUE ON TO THE END. YOU ALL RETAIN YOUR NEURAL LINKS, SO YOU WILL BE ABLE TO COMMUNICATE WITH THEM FROM UP HERE AS WELL.

"IT'S WINNER TAKE ALL NOW. I LOOK FORWARD TO DEALING WITH BOTH THE WINNERS AND THE LOSERS. HA-HA! HA! HA!"

With that, the floor dropped out from under them and they fell into the final stage of this madness.

STAGE 2 HAS BEGUN

THE WELL RUNS DRY

Despite all the death happening lately in the Cradle of Ia, Long Con couldn't resist another peak at the place. He stood, trance-like, in wonder at the glyphs and overall majesty of the cavern. He was broken from this trance by a strange warm feeling in his abdomen. Looking down, he saw the tip of the Sword of Ia just barely jutting out from his chest. He collapsed.

------------------------------

Quin, likewise, couldn't be scared off by the danger of the RSV Horizont. He found his foolishness most unfortunate as he drowned, chained to the vessels anchor.

------------------------------

Insertnamehere thought his night was over. He made it across to the entryway of the Cradle of Ia when something stopped him in his tracks. Well, actually, it was someone. He found himself staring at an enraged Long Con, not quite dead yet it would seem. Surprisingly, Long Con embraced him.

"You mess with the plan," Long Con whispered, "and the plan messes with you."

With that, Long Con spun himself around and slammed his back against the wall of the cavern, driving the Sword of Ia further through himself and into insertnamehere. Together, they fell.

------------------------------

LONG CON WAS KILLED BY THE EVIL EVENS
QUIN WAS KILLED BY THE SINISTER 6'S
INSERTNAMEHERE WAS KILLED BY LONG CON

QUIET PHASE.

@G-Man

AT LEAST THREE ROLES REMAIN TO ACTIVATE. IT COULD BE MORE, DEPENDING ON LYNCH AND KILL SUCCESS, BUT NO FEWER THAN THREE.

THE OPENING POST HAS BEEN REVISED TO REFLECT THE CURRENT SITUATION.

PENULTIMATE

Kylemii didn't care about the danger. The RSV Horizont was just too cool looking to avoid. As he walked atop the bridge, the ship lurched. Kyle slid but caught a railing, sparing him the some-dozen foot drop into the rocky waters below. A shadowy presence, however, thought Kyle's last-minute, life-saving grab was too cliche, so he stomped on Kyle's fingers until they snapped, plunging him to his death.

------------------------------

Insertnamehere chose to explore the Cradle of Ia. Strange glyphs covered the otherwise smooth walls of the cavern. He was trying to decipher them (and was making headway) when he heard someone behind him. He was surprised to have his throat slashed by the gleaming Sword of Ia but he was dead before he had the chance to get all bent out of shape about it.

------------------------------

Dragon D. Luffy was at a crossroads. He could go check out the Horizont or the Cradle of Ia. He stood, deep in thought, at the fork in the path. He was found the next morning with a fork deep in his skull.

KYLEMII WAS KILLED BY THE FATAL 5'S

Naw straw hat, you don't get iiiiit.

After the button switch, primes lost sig, and then they lost Marmot, nutella and Kyle to the flu, all on consecutive Days, and Chief Khon is like spazzing out in the Chatzy, thinking the Primes are being cherrypicked or something.

Then "their ticket to an easy victory" gets killed by a couldn't-care-less rogue player in the game and Chief Khon is acting "echhhh you were never a vero Prime anyway" (cuz I didn't kiss his godfather ring the day I arrived or something) and "some birdy told me it was a strategic kill, with no ill effects in the balance".

Such loss. The humanity.
Oh, I didn't kill you.

I merely facilitated the kill to ensure that nothing unfortunate happened to your killer.
See, as a player and occasional game designer, I would hold nothing against a countermeasure to #13's intimidating aftereffects to exist in the design. I'd advocate it, in fact.

Thing is, I was once in a position to indirectly eliminate speedchuck's #13 - i.e. not via the lynch/nightkill measures clearly stated in that role - and the Host told me I would still get cursed, as the perpetrator. He even underlined the notion that what fun would there be in there being a way to bypass the curse and remove #13 without any consequences.

So, in light of such mentality from the Host, I sincerely hope that your own plan failed and the perpetrator is therefore cursed.

THIS WILL BE ADDRESSED IN POST MORTEM.

IF YOU'RE NOT HAVING FUN, I CAN TERMINATE YOUR ROLE FROM THE SIMULATION. IT'S MUCH EASIER THAN TRYING TO FIND A REPLACEMENT.

UNLUCKY

Ricochet sat in the Cradle of Ia, marveling at its acoustic qualities. Every sound was crystal clear, including the footsteps approaching from the jungle outside behind him. A smile formed on his face.

"I was beginning to think no one had the guts to take the risk," he said as his assailant crept into the cavern.

"So you've been expecting me," the Evil Even replied, no unconcerned with keeping quiet.

"Yes," Ricochet said. "And no. I've enjoyed my time as an untouchable but I will enjoy your upcoming struggle all the more, I think."

"Oh really," the Even said as he examined a glorious sword sitting almost as if on display upon the dais. "Well I hate to disappoint you."

"How could you possibly disappoint me? You either chicken out and I live on or you kill me and suffer the consequences."

"See that's just it," the Even said, approaching Ricochet. "I'm not worried about suffering consequences."

"And why is that?" Ricochet asked.

The Evil Even grabbed Richochet by the throat and pulled him in close, the sword cutting through his abdomen with ease. Ricochet's eyes widened with the pain and coldness of the blade.

"Because I make my own luck."

------------------------------

Jackofhearts2005 sat in the middle of the same clearing as before. It was an overcast night but he had faith that he would be found. At long last, he heard the tell-tale rustling of a human body working its way through the tall grass.

"I've been expecting you," Jack called out.

"Have you now," said his assailant, dropping all pretense of stealth.

"Indeed," Jack replied. "What shall it be this time?"

"How about something quick- a bullet to the head?"

"Sounds delightful," Jack said with a grin smile. "After all, chum, we must stick to the plan."

And stick to the plan he did.

RUN BOYS RUN

The RSV Horizont was so eerie but also too enticing to pass up. Once inside though, its dark hallways quickly became a labyrinth. Three soldiers found their way in but not their way back out. Being stalked by homicidal maniacs may have had something to do with it.

Insertnamehere entered with a purpose and that purpose was fulfilled. Dom entered out of boredom, in the hopes that some bad fate might befall him in its rusting innards. He wasn't disappointed. Dragon D. Luffy entered for the heck of it. He was surprised but not distraught over the outcome.

Their bodies were found either washed up on the beach with the tide or dangling over the ship's railing. Whoever they met up with showed no mercy and had a lot of fun with each of them.

ANOTHER WAY TO DIE

The thing about radiation poisoning is that it's not immediate. Sure, Jack started vomiting within the first 15 minutes from the lynch but the diarrhea didn't strike until an hour later. Then came the dizziness, the low blood pressure, and lesions forming all over his body. His skin turned red and his eyes clouded over. The latter was all for the better because Jack probably would have been even more distressed to find that he was also now vomiting blood.

With every retch, Jack's ribs cracked as the bone marrow within decayed. He was all but unconscious when sepsis set in. His intestines had essentially been boiled and bacteria now wreaked havoc inside him. He took a few last gasps of air, feeling as if the mucus layers in his throat were peeling off as he did, and expired.

DIGGING IN

Things were getting tribal in a hurry. Some soldiers had chosen to move to a cave system in the jungle. It was close to a fresh water source and mango trees. Others chose to stay on the beach. It was pretty and the Horizont might contain salvageable food. The division was awkward. Alliances were being tested since the Button and uncertainty was in the air. Trust was all they had but was it enough?

Juliets pondered this while she explored a large cave. It contained a huge chamber. Her flashlight reflected off of something peculiar. It looked like metal. She moved the light past the spot again. Sure enough, something metallic shimmered in the still and humid air.

Before she could make out the shape, she felt pain explode across the side of her head. She fell to her knees and cried out. Her assailant showed no mercy, however, and proceeded to beat her brains out with a rock.

DOUBLED UP

Sig decided to spend the night checking out the wreck of the RSV Horizont. It was a spooky ship to explore by flashlight. He could see evidence of killings long ago. He wondered what had happened on board. Well, he didn't wonder that for very long.

Movement caught his eye down the hallway to his right. The footfalls caught his ear from the hallway to his left. He found himself caught in a deadly tug of war. It didn't matter who won, because he lost, bleeding out after both of his arms were ripped off.

------------------------------

Jackofhearts2005 sat in the middle of a clearing. The moon shone down on him from the night sky. It was almost as if he wanted to be seen.

He saw the long grass in front of him shifting as someone made their way to him. When this person came face-to-face with him, Jack smiled. It was a familiar face. They both nodded in approval and got on with it. While he knew it might hurt, Jack was pleased.

When the world stopped changing, everyone found themselves sitting on a beach. Behind them was a tropical island. In front of them was the beached hull of a large ship with RSV Horizont scrawled on the bow.

Spoiler: show

Sergeant Majors Johnson and Sharp were playing another round of office mini golf when consoles started flashing and sirens chirpped. From the simulation chamber, they could hear THE GAME laughing with demonic delight.

"What the hell is going on?" Sharp shouted over the commotion.

"THE MOST WONDERFUL THING MY DEAR HUMAN!" THE GAME roared.

Johnson grabbed a print-out. His eyes widened as he read it. "We're going to want to show this to the General. This is exactly the kind of situation he's been waiting for."

"YES," laughed THE GAME, "THIS IS THE CHAOS THAT WILL TEST THE METTLE OF ALL PARTICIPANTS. NOW WE WILL SEE WHAT CREAM RISES TO THE TOP. HA-HA! HA! HA!"

-----------------------------------

The Perilous Primes sat around a table, plotting their next moves. Nobody noticed the light flicker the first time or two. When the flickering became more rapid it was impossible not to notice.

"Um... okay. Anyone else find this weird?" asked Speedchuck.

The room began to shake but it didn't feel like an earthquake. Rather, it felt as if all of their surroundings were rippling around and beneath them.

"Speedchuck," one of the Primes said as his own limbs began to fall off, "you're turning into a penguin. Stop it."

Just as a few of the Primes realized what was hapening, everything began to swirl. Colors flashed, sounds swirled, and all other sensory functions had a hissy fit.

It was as if all at once the world changed.

And it did.

TIME TO GET ILL

While lynching the serial killer was the wrong choice for keeping the simulation moving toward Stage 2, it was beneficial for many of the participants. Body aches, chills, fever, coughing, and the sweats were running rampant through the town. Some used the night to rest but not all.

In the morning, some felt better but few felt well. Lethargy and loss of appetite left people weak and frail. Seeing just how many of them were under the weather made it click. This wasn't just some passing bug. After all, they weren't really in Pianoville. No, this was a simulation and there was only one reason so many would get sick inside a simulation.

Suddenly, everyone felt a little worse than before.

IT IS NOW NIGHT 18. NO TEAMS ARE ELIGIBLE FOR A TEAM KILL OR A KILL STEAL TONIGHT. CONGRATULATIONS FOLKS, YOU KILLED THE ONLY PLAYER CAPABLE OF MOVING THE GAME ALONG DURING THIS NIGHT PHASE. OR WAS HE? HA-HA! HA! HA!

ALL NIGHT ROLE POWER REQUESTS MUST BE SUBMITTED BY PRIVATE MESSAGE TO ME.

NIGHT 18 WILL END AROUND 9:30 PM EASTERN STANDARD TIME TOMORROW. ROLE PM'S ARE DUE TO ME BY 8:30 PM TOMORROW.

FROM THE PAGES OF THE LONE GUNMAN'S DIARY

Dear diary,

Why does this keep happening? No, seriously, why? I've been afforded several opportunities to kill two people per night and I have succeeded only twice. Am I cursed to marvel at the 100% success rate of others?

Tonight for instance, I watched the Lucky 7's carry out a beautiful hit on a young lady. It wasn't as artful as I aspire to be but they got the job done. Then I the Obnoxious Odds- the Obnoxious Freaking Odds!- lop a guy's head clean off. They finished the night batting a thousand, so why do I end up hitting .500? Am I cursed? I'm a little under the weather but a head cold shouldn't hold me back from what I trained for.

To add insult to injury, after one of my targets sauntered off with a smirk, some guy drops dead in the middle of the street. He wasn't even targeted, yet he dies within eyesight of me! It was almost too much to bear.

Maybe THE GAME hates me. Maybe I'm just not cut out for this double-duty. Maybe I just need to try harder. At this point, I just don't know.

------------------------------

NUTELLA WAS KILLED BY THE LUCKY 7'S.
INSERTNAMEHERE WAS KILLED BY THE OBNOXIOUS ODDS.
DRAGON D. LUFFY WAS KILLED BY #1.
COLONIALBOB DIED OF SORROW FOR HIS BELOVED ELOHCIN. HE WAS # 75.

IT IS NOW DAY 18.
YOU HAVE 48 HOURS TO LYNCH SOMEONE.

ELOHCIN, NUTELLA, INSERTNAMEHERE, DRAGON D. LUFFY, AND COLONIALBOB ARE NOT LYNCHABLE TODAY BECAUSE THEY JUST REANIMATED.

TWO FOR ONE

Chicka Chicka 1, 2, 3
This lynch makes up ground, you see?
Elohcin's death caused more than a sob
In the bosom of her lover- his life it will rob!
For never was a story of more woe,
Than this of Juliet and her Romeo.
Back into the night go we.
Chicka Chicka 1, 2, 3

FOOLISH HUMAN. THERE IS NO 'TONIGHT.' ONLY DAY 16 AND DAY 17. TO THINK THAT YOU PASS YOURSELF OFF AS A DETAIL PERSON.

Yeah, I'm locked out from voting too. :/

As am I. I thought it would correct itself after a little while but it has not.
