Who: Everyone
When: Day 1 – noon
Where: The Auditorium
What: ROUND 1 BEGINS
[Some hours have passed, leaving you time to mingle and explore to your hearts content. However, as the clocks tick over to noon … the bell rings again. And this time, it's followed by the hissing static of an intercom system.]
Ahem! Ahem, is this thing on? Ahh, yes … If all Students and Instructors could kindly make their way to the Auditorium, our first class can begin.
[Those people who are understandably reluctant to follow that instruction may just find their feet moving for them, plodding them into the massive assembly hall. Once they're there, the door slams shut and locks behind them.
… There's nobody there, but the intercom is still on.]

It's a possibility, but . . . why didn't they take our memories this time? Those of us who have gone through this before - strictly speaking, we could have a lot of influence over how this plays out.

It . . . could be. But it'll be one hell of a mess to analyze later.
no subject
Not necessarily. Not if they're not looking to analyze anything.
This could be simply out of entertainment.
no subject
I think that goes without saying.

A few years ago I was involved in a nation-wide incident where ten thousand people ended up trapped in a VRMMORPG. We were literally stuck in the game, with no way to log out, and letting our HP drop to zero would not only result in our character's dying—we would die in reality as well.
The only way to escape that place was to beat the game itself.

That's . . . well, I haven't heard of that happening before.

He had no real reason for subjecting all of us to it. No data to analyze or process, no political motives, no grudges towards anyone.
He did it just because he could.
no subject
What happened? To the people behind it.
no subject
He used the technology he had developed himself to scan his brain and create a copy that could be uploaded to the virtual world—the internet, if you will.
He successfully managed to do so, but the process fried his brain and killed him.

Sorry, you didn't really need to know all that. But that's... part of why I think this could be some kind of experiment, and why there might be no real reason behind it. If you have other theories, though...

[that's an understatement, but he doesn't really know what else to say]
I'd . . . have to talk to Kit, about Aather, and see if there's any other similarities. And find out more about your library, too.
no subject
Yeah. I know it's not what we should be worrying about right now, given the circumstances, but figuring things out could potentially help us find a way to get out of this place...
