Okay, the following bit is IC:
The moment that April selects her name from the list, the faint, shimmering red light of some sort of scanner sweeps over her face. "Silent Spring recognized," says the same automated female voice from the couch. The options menu unlocks and April duly selects 'Help'.
"Please explain what you would like help with," the voice announces.
(whatever you respond here will be posted on the forum, along with the answer)
YSMQTHLQYHToday at 10:14 PM
What options can i ask in this help menu?
Nat TwentyToday at 10:16 PM
All functions that do not involved active security measures or currently classified information are available to members with candidate-level clearance.
YSMQTHLQYHToday at 10:17 PM
I wonder if this system is connected or straight up is the thing that sent us the messages
Nat TwentyToday at 10:18 PM
That information is classified
RocketToday at 10:18 PM
cap is all like "why did i not do this i am stupid and bad at capes"
YSMQTHLQYHToday at 10:18 PM
try it if you want
i mean
superbomb122Today at 10:19 PM
Nick wants to know what Black Hole's magic word was
YSMQTHLQYHToday at 10:19 PM
maybe you got some ideas to do with this thing
Nat TwentyToday at 10:19 PM
Your IQ is listed as 109, which means that you are technically not stupid. You are, however, bad at capes. Yes.
YSMQTHLQYHToday at 10:19 PM
Does this thing have my IQ too?
superbomb122Today at 10:19 PM
This isn't something I asked the console
Nat TwentyToday at 10:19 PM
The Amazing Black Hole's word is classified information
superbomb122Today at 10:19 PM
HOLD UP
Nat TwentyToday at 10:20 PM
If you have taken an IQ test, yes, the console has that information.
superbomb122Today at 10:20 PM
The computer knows the word
Suspicious
Nat TwentyToday at 10:20 PM
'The Computer' cannot confirm the validity of that statement.
superbomb122Today at 10:21 PM
RocketToday at 10:21 PM
Just confirms what we already knew, which was that whoever sent us text messages is somehow involved with the Corps
superbomb122Today at 10:21 PM
And has classified access to the database
RocketToday at 10:22 PM
Computer, please list all Liberty Corps members able to be accounted for at the present time.
superbomb122Today at 10:22 PM
Which we don't have as reserves
YSMQTHLQYHToday at 10:22 PM
Out of curiosity
Let me check how much time is left on the timer
Nat TwentyToday at 10:22 PM
There are three minutes and twenty-one seconds remaining on the timer
YSMQTHLQYHToday at 10:22 PM
long enough (i hope)
Nat TwentyToday at 10:23 PM
Thank you for using this member-access terminal. Do you have any further queries, Silent Spring?
RocketToday at 10:24 PM
"Why us?"
Nat TwentyToday at 10:25 PM
Captain Chicken recognized.
RocketToday at 10:25 PM
"First time for everything."
superbomb122Today at 10:25 PM
lel
Nat TwentyToday at 10:26 PM
Good question! You were selected for candidacy by Executive because, between the ten of you, you possess the abilities with the best chance of getting the job done.
(the timer now reads 2:59)
RocketToday at 10:27 PM
"What's the job?"
Nat TwentyToday at 10:27 PM
Good question!
RocketToday at 10:27 PM
((OOC: Would Cap, a cape geek in excelsis, know who or what Executive is?))
Nat TwentyToday at 10:28 PM
((Cap would be able to guess at who Executive normally is. That may be different at the moment, however, given the current exceptional circumstances))
The current task facing us is to find out what happened to the Liberty Corps' primary membership and work to recover them so that the Corps may continue to carry out its mandate.
superbomb122Today at 10:29 PM
Who is this executive? Namely, are they available?
Nat TwentyToday at 10:31 PM
Nick No Knees recognized.
Current emergency executive consists of Members Emeritus Malatesta and Recoil, Reserve Member Orange Marauder, and Emergency Members David, Kamikaze, and Rolling Thunder.
Currently, four Executive members are onsite.
(the timer now reads 2:08)
Thank you for using this member-access terminal. Do you have any further queries, Nick No Knees?
RocketToday at 10:33 PM
"Sorry, me again: what's the timer for?"
Nat TwentyToday at 10:33 PM
"The timer is for counting down."
superbomb122Today at 10:34 PM
Nick visibly cringes at this moniker uhh, can we speak to a member?
YSMQTHLQYHToday at 10:34 PM
Ok, i am getting closer and closer to the conclusion that this is just a test and when the timer runs out we won't die immediately
superbomb122Today at 10:34 PM
Oh yeah no doubt
Nat TwentyToday at 10:34 PM
"A member will arrive in one minute and fifty-three seconds"
superbomb122Today at 10:34 PM
Hmm
YSMQTHLQYHToday at 10:34 PM
hmmm
We have to kill that executive, right?
Nat TwentyToday at 10:34 PM
"Another member is already present"
superbomb122Today at 10:35 PM
What are Orange Marauder's abilities?
RocketToday at 10:35 PM
((Cap should be able to answer that but cannot because I don't have the info))
((Or at least I don't remember it))
Nat TwentyToday at 10:35 PM
Silent Spring recognized.
For the Corps' position on killing, please view our mandate under the Liberty Register preamble.
((It's in the information post, Cassie))
RocketToday at 10:36 PM
"Yeah, Si, the Corps is extremely not okay with killing indiscriminately. You want that, go join a breakaway group in the Nineties. The Nineties fucking sucked."
YSMQTHLQYHToday at 10:37 PM
Well
if one of the messages has the word executive, or something similar, we might as well know what they are telling us to do
superbomb122Today at 10:37 PM
whispers to others 'We only kill out of discrimination dw'
Nat TwentyToday at 10:38 PM
Orange Marauder is much like a hydromancer, Nick No Knees. Only, she does not control water itself. Rather, she can conjure and manipulate fruit and vegetable juice equal to the amount of water within a five mile radius.
YSMQTHLQYHToday at 10:38 PM
But then we get the problem of, do we actually have to go trough with that
i hope not
superbomb122Today at 10:38 PM
Hmm
I know the emergency ones
(Wait yeah all are in the post)
(We're good on info)
Nat TwentyToday at 10:39 PM
This information is readily available under Member Registry
(the timer now reads 1:14)
superbomb122Today at 10:40 PM
(derp)
Nat TwentyToday at 10:40 PM
Thank you for using this member-access terminal. Do you have any further queries, Captain Chicken, Silent Spring, Nick No Knees?
superbomb122Today at 10:41 PM
Yeah, uhh, could you just refer to me as Nick?
Nat TwentyToday at 10:42 PM
Of course, Nick.
RocketToday at 10:42 PM
"Who's here with us?"
"Which member of the Executive is here with us, I mean."
Nat TwentyToday at 10:42 PM
Sorry, that information is classified.
Thank you for using this member-access terminal. Do you have any further queries, Captain Chicken, Silent Spring, Nick?
(the timer now reads 0:42)
superbomb122Today at 10:45 PM
Uhh, I'm good. You guys got anything?
Nat TwentyToday at 10:45 PM
You are good. That is why you were summoned here.
superbomb122Today at 10:45 PM
Nick gets into a readying pose and scans the room
RocketToday at 10:45 PM
"I'm here. That is blatantly not true for all of us."
YSMQTHLQYHToday at 10:46 PM
Can you add a minute to the timer?
Nat TwentyToday at 10:46 PM
The word 'good' has multiple uses, Captain Chicken.
superbomb122Today at 10:46 PM
Good of heart, Ms. 109 IQ
Nat TwentyToday at 10:46 PM
I can add a minute to the timer, Silent Spring.
RocketToday at 10:46 PM
"I didn't mean you, Nick."
Nat TwentyToday at 10:46 PM
However, I will not.
YSMQTHLQYHToday at 10:46 PM
Fair enough
Nat TwentyToday at 10:47 PM
(the timer reads 0:29)
YSMQTHLQYHToday at 10:47 PM
I am not liking this
superbomb122Today at 10:47 PM
Eh it'll be fine
RocketToday at 10:47 PM
"One last question, just so we can clear this up: who stole Force's teddy bear and threw it at the redhead?"
YSMQTHLQYHToday at 10:47 PM
Are you sure
superbomb122Today at 10:48 PM
They aren't going to kill ten recruits
SIRENSToday at 10:48 PM
Well
superbomb122Today at 10:48 PM
Especially when only some of us annoy them
SIRENSToday at 10:48 PM
0:29

Nat TwentyToday at 10:48 PM
Executive
SIRENSToday at 10:48 PM

Nat TwentyToday at 10:49 PM
IMPORTANT NEWS BULLETIN: Emergency Member Hackslash abducted by hostile persons including but not necessarily limited to recognized supervillains Natural Twenty, Big Wing, Sour Cherry Blaster, The Bubbler. Please prepare for incoming orders from executive.
(the timer reads 0:07)
YSMQTHLQYHToday at 10:49 PM
oh no
superbomb122Today at 10:50 PM
God Damnit
RocketToday at 10:50 PM
"... well, flock."
SIRENSToday at 10:50 PM
oh god oh fuck
YSMQTHLQYHToday at 10:50 PM
we have to do superhero things, right?
Nat TwentyToday at 10:50 PM
Flock is currently recognized as an emergency member. He is not currently on site.
RocketToday at 10:50 PM
"No it's - oh, never mind."
SIRENSToday at 10:51 PM
"Terminal, do you have any proximity functions?"
superbomb122Today at 10:51 PM
Good job One Pun (Wo)Man
YSMQTHLQYHToday at 10:51 PM
oh god
Nat TwentyToday at 10:52 PM
Sandy Man recognized
That is correct. I possess those features.
superbomb122Today at 10:52 PM
(If Nick dies I'm running One Pun Man)
YSMQTHLQYHToday at 10:52 PM
(lol)
Nat TwentyToday at 10:52 PM
(The timer reads 0:00)
Lights darken slightly. A sound like a wake-up alarm emanates from the terminal
SIRENSToday at 10:53 PM
neato
YSMQTHLQYHToday at 10:53 PM
not neato
superbomb122Today at 10:53 PM
Muy neato
YSMQTHLQYHToday at 10:54 PM
para nada neato
SIRENSToday at 10:54 PM
Alright, so either shits bout to go down

Nat TwentyToday at 10:54 PM
Candidates, the first part of your test is complete and the executive is on her way. Please enter the completed message that the ten of your received into the field below.

YSMQTHLQYHToday at 10:54 PM
ANOTHER TIMER!!
superbomb122Today at 10:54 PM
TIMOTHY WHAT IS YOUR WORD
SIRENSToday at 10:54 PM
So, we have "Kill them immediately", which we can sus out easily enough
YSMQTHLQYHToday at 10:54 PM
y do u do dis to me
RocketToday at 10:55 PM
Oh ffs we're idiots.
Nat TwentyToday at 10:55 PM
You are not all idiots
only some of you
For a listing of current grades, just ask!
YSMQTHLQYHToday at 10:55 PM
is idiots the key word we are missing?
superbomb122Today at 10:55 PM
raises hand and slacks jaw
Nat TwentyToday at 10:55 PM
it is not
YSMQTHLQYHToday at 10:55 PM
what are my grades then?
RocketToday at 10:55 PM
"I'm the biggest one of the lot. This is the CORPS, you guys! They don't do killing!"
YSMQTHLQYHToday at 10:56 PM
or everyone's for that matter
Nat TwentyToday at 10:56 PM
You currently stand at a B, Silent Spring. this is a passing grade.
(the timer reads 1:12)
superbomb122Today at 10:56 PM
returns to regular pose
SIRENSToday at 10:56 PM
Listen, everyone calm down lol
YSMQTHLQYHToday at 10:56 PM
NO
SIRENSToday at 10:56 PM
Kill them immediately is the starting base
superbomb122Today at 10:56 PM
We only need Black Hole's
SIRENSToday at 10:56 PM
So, we need to build on that
RocketToday at 10:57 PM
"We've been paranoid about them asking us to kill someone we've just met and that's about as far away from the Corps' rules it's not even on the same land mass."
YSMQTHLQYHToday at 10:57 PM
We also got among and traitorous
RocketToday at 10:57 PM
"Want my guess? I think the missing word is 'don't'."
Nat TwentyToday at 10:57 PM
The Amazing Black Hole: E+
Captain Chicken: A
Faust 2: B-
Flashback: C
Force: F
The Magnificent Marvelo: F
The Narcoleptic: C
Nick No Knees: C
Sandy Man: B+
Silent Spring: B
SIRENSToday at 10:57 PM
Yeah, probably
superbomb122Today at 10:57 PM
I can about suss out the rest
__ among you may be traitorous. Kill them immediately
Nat TwentyToday at 10:58 PM
(the timer reads 0:48)
YSMQTHLQYHToday at 10:58 PM
I am in the top three? what?
superbomb122Today at 10:58 PM
Like one other word in there
SIRENSToday at 10:58 PM
Ooh, thats good
RocketToday at 10:58 PM
Cap dives towards the terminal and types "Some among you may be traitorous, don't kill them immediately."
Nat TwentyToday at 10:58 PM
Nick's scores would've put him in the top three. However, his harm of another member caused him to lose a grade.
superbomb122Today at 10:58 PM
C
Better than my chemistry grade I guess
SIRENSToday at 10:58 PM
"One among you might be traitorous, kill them immediatly"
I think this is a test
to see if we kill someone
superbomb122Today at 10:59 PM
I didn't harm anyone
SIRENSToday at 10:59 PM
and if we do
we fail
RocketToday at 10:59 PM
"Because even if we're treacherous it doesn't matter because this is more important!"
superbomb122Today at 10:59 PM
Force was not hanged
Nat TwentyToday at 10:59 PM
Captain Chicken, this is incorrect.
superbomb122Today at 10:59 PM
Harmed
YSMQTHLQYHToday at 10:59 PM
WE are still missing a word
RocketToday at 10:59 PM
"... I'll be over there."
SIRENSToday at 10:59 PM
How'd I get a B tho
Nat TwentyToday at 10:59 PM
Sandy Man, you are missing a word
SIRENSToday at 10:59 PM
hmm
Nat TwentyToday at 10:59 PM
please enter one more word.
YSMQTHLQYHToday at 10:59 PM
also, we don't have to actually have to kill someone
superbomb122Today at 10:59 PM
Might just be traitorous?
YSMQTHLQYHToday at 10:59 PM
it's just a test of how far can we go
SIRENSToday at 10:59 PM
"One among you might be traitorous, don't kill them immediately"
Nat TwentyToday at 11:00 PM
(the timer reads 0:29)
Sandy Man, this is incorrect.
YSMQTHLQYHToday at 11:00 PM
"One among you might not be traitorous, kill them immediately"
(:V)
Nat TwentyToday at 11:00 PM
Silent Spring. Levity is appreciated.
superbomb122Today at 11:00 PM
"One among you might just be traitorous, kill them immediately"
YSMQTHLQYHToday at 11:00 PM
What does that word mean?
SIRENSToday at 11:01 PM
humor or frivolity, especially the treatment of a serious matter with humor or in a manner lacking due respect.
Nat TwentyToday at 11:01 PM
Levity means "fun, humour, and a lightening of the situation"
YSMQTHLQYHToday at 11:01 PM
ah cool
Nat TwentyToday at 11:01 PM
Nick, this is incorrect
(The timer reads 0:11)
SIRENSToday at 11:01 PM

Nat TwentyToday at 11:02 PM
"Sandy Man, this is incorrect."

"It's may, by the way, not might. This is a computer, we need to be exact."
superbomb122Today at 11:02 PM

You are correct. I am a computer.

YSMQTHLQYHToday at 11:06 PM
Did we actually solve it with 1 second left like in the movies too?
SIRENSToday at 11:06 PM
When Dio stops time for 10 seconds but the time stop lasts like a minute
YSMQTHLQYHToday at 11:06 PM
Well
10 seconds or a minute don't mean anything if time is stopped
