The Game
-
Attempt fire control override
Can those wires reach? Would they be helpful?
-
Too many thoughts run through your head.
You begin to get frustrated and decide to focus on one task at a time.The panel is still open.
-
> EXAMINE WIRING BEHIND PANEL
<a
-
Yeah, can we do this first before actually attempting the override?
-
OOC: are we still trying to get the data, or are we trying to run far away from the people with the gun?
-
There are several wires of many different colors.
You're not an electrician, but you try to describe in your head what the wires are trying to accomplish.There are several wires in the back in a line, of various colors.
One column of wires disconnects in the middle, and disappear on behind either side of the button.Another column is split in the center with either end capped off by little plastic things.
-
OOC: I believe the people with the gun are the people asking us to get the server
-
OOC: I know, but we blew up the computer, and that seemed to piss them off...
-
OOC: I don't think that computer was the server.
-
OOC: yeah, we made stinky mess, but that was just the receptionist's PC, maybe the server's still ok.
Hanzoed! Hey, let's call Hanzo, he'll save us...
-
-
OOC: This is hard to visualize
-
> CONNECT THE WIRES THAT END BEHIND THE BUTTON
OOC: Are we gonna get this thing to work?
-
OOC: I would assume one of these wires is the fireman's control.
-
OOC: speaking of firemen, it will be interesting when they show up. Though I guess we could do something to get them to do a medical evac so we don't get shot.
-
OOC those generally ride in the elevator car (which waits doors open on the ground floor) or on the ground floor panels.
My elevator hacking experience tells me we should not expect success.
-
You tug on the wires behind the button, and they are attached to the button, already connected.
-

One column of wires disconnects in the middle, and disappear on behind either side of the button.Another column is split in the center with either end capped off by little plastic things.
Take off caps, connect wires from split column together.
-
You successfully attach the wires without becoming fried geek.
The arrow above the elevator changes from red to yellow.
-
Put card in slot, press top button...
-
You do not see a slot.
Unless....
No. How would that help?
-
-
Above the numbered buttons is a card slot and an additional button.
This one. Ah, thanks @locallunatic, I thought we were already inside working on the inside panel.
-
OOC: You stole my idea I was too scared to actually do. :/
I edited it out :/
-
The elevator makes various clattering sounds, and the arrow above the door lights green.
For several seconds you whistle, in your head, what music you imagine is playing in the elevator.
After these seconds, the elevator gives out a loud ding. Or at least in comparison to the deafening sounds you've heard lately, it is perceived as a very loud ding.
The door stutters, and then starts to open.
As the crack widens, you start to realize that there's someone inside.
Your eyes hurt for a second, as the lights that bounce from the reflectors and the myriad of windows reaches your eyes.
That someone is paused, a little confused, and wearing a mask. In such a guise, you'd mistake it for a holy enchanted troll? as if those things could exist, from some tabletop game of ill repute.
No, this one is human, but intimidating the very same.
You're staring at a firefighter. You've successfully made a pre-emptive roll.
-
STAB WITH SCREWDRIVER
OOC: First Post
-
OOC: should specify that it is stab self, that way we get med evaced instead of shot when leaving.
-
Stab what with screwdriver?
-
STAB HUMAN INSIDE ELEVATOR WITH SCREWDRIVER
OOC: Discourse says body is invalid...
-
>STAB WITH SCREWDRIVER
OOC: Some of the commands do not seem to be leading toward the presumed goal of the game.
-
OOC: Our (his, its?) life is on the line as evidenced by the apparent gunshot earlier. Sacrifices must be made!
-
You roll 1
You roll 1
You roll 3You lunge forth before the other person can respond and promptly trip on the gap in between the elevator and the room you were in.
Your wielding arm flies back behind you, and you tumble into the firefighter with a mighty headbutt.The troll falls to the floor unconscious.

OOC:
-
Cool, now we can get in the elevator, use the card, press top button.
-
[code]

[/code]EDIT: need to see what we can loot off of them
-
search unconscious body
-
take mask, helmet
equip mask, helmet
-
take coat and pants
-
>take mask, helmet
>equip mask, helmettake coat and pants
OOC: hooray a disguise!
-
OOC: Silence of the Lambs mode: take face.
-
Uh-oh. @xaade was the firefighter.
-
>take mask, helmet
>equip mask, helmet> take coat and pants
You take off the protective gear of the firefighter and equip all of it.
He's not at risk, so why not?
It's sized a little big for you, but it fits well enough that you can maintain control.
use the card, press top button.
You put the card into the slot, and try not to make the obvious joke (Magic 2.0 reference ftw).
And press the button.
To be continued

OOC: Some of the commands do not seem to be leading toward the presumed goal of the game.
OOC: seeing as attempting to smash everything failed so dismally earlier on, the only backup tactic I can suggest is to run away and hide somewhere... worst job interview ever.

POKE @xaade, status

(Think about / Recap) all that happened in order to prepare for future decisions
-
It's still pretty insane.
This is on my todo, when I get another lapse in work.
