WEEK ONE

WEEK ONE
29 Vacationers



As much as this vacation was unplanned, hopefully you've found some time to enjoy yourself this weekend as you've settled in. The idyllic beach, all inclusive food, drink, and shopping might be almost enough to distract you from that pesky talk of sacrifice. Vacations really are about letting your worries pass you by. Hopefully you've found the time to set up your U-PINION too, because if you haven't, it's been chirping incessantly since the date turned to Monday. And come Monday at noon, everyone's device will let out a pleasant jingle, heralding several announcements across the screen:

Happy Monday! We've hope you've been enjoying your time at Sungem's Peak. The Mermer (intranet) is now fully operational. Chat with your friends and get recommendations for how to best enjoy your vacation, by:

We're also happy to announce our reward system is live! Complete tasks to receive special items to improve your stay!!! Contact your administrators for any questions or concerns. We hope you have a wonderful week!

The artificial peppiness of the announcement just oozes out from the U-PINION, and soon thereafter everyone will be accosted by a friendly robot that forces a physical copy of the rules into their hands anyway. Just in case. They'll also present a copy of the tasks this week as well, for any interested parties.

!
TASKS:

Be Nice
Now that you're acquainted, tell another person one thing you like about them, and why.
(REWARD: RARE!)

Let's Play!
Play a game with someone else. Any type of game: board games, card games, or even a party game! (Reward: Common )

Summer Spooks
Tell a two-sentence horror story in person, or on the network.
(Reward: Common)
((OOC: Welcome to Week 1! This is a peace week, so they'll be no case this weekend. However, we have something for you to chew on Saturday, time to be announced later in discord.

We'll also be playing around with the network and seeing what works as far as formatting goes, so thanks for bearing with us! Also please note, that the poll questions are anon, but any answers won't be. ))

[ mmm. there's a bit of silence, a kind of agreement in it. were she a lesser person, she'd question her own reaction to such things. ]

Indeed. I would say this might age poorly, but with this group... I cannot be sure.

Honestly, if I were a betting man? I bet that it would.

[He does not have high hopes.]

[ hm. a small exhale, almost a sigh. ]

I'd like to disagree with you, except it'd be foolish of me to go against such odds.

[ which is, uh, such party talk? this is such party talk. party City talk. they both know Better. ]

Regardless, there is peace for now... whether we consider it a fallacy or bizarre contradiction. Have you become acquainted with some of the ones here?

[ she will not mention the instances of BLOCK she has seen on the network ]

[Sometimes you come from HellWorld and this is just how you expect everything to be.]

Yes. [He won't lie on that, as much as his...oppressive aura naturally drives people away. And the BLOCK comments. That too.] Most of them are fools. There's a few sensible types, though. You?
