For the purpose of this post, I will be referring to the first year mentioned here as Year X, the second as Year Y, and the current year as Year Z. I will also be referring to the months by their numerical place on the calendar rather than their names. This is so that I can ensure comprehension by a wide audience in the tower, no matter what year they are from or what the calendar of their world is like.

I'd like to call the attention of the following people:

● anyone who arrived in the tower earlier than this date exactly two years ago; the thirtieth day of Month 8 in Year X.
● anyone who participated in the experiment during Month 9 of Year X.
● anyone who played in the entirety of the game during Month 2 of Year Y.
● anyone who played in the entirety of the game during Month 6 of Year Y.
● anyone who participated in any experiment or game during Month 7 of Year Y.
● any competent hacker who feels a little helpful.

I am not asking anything dangerous of you. I simply have a little project I'm working on, and I require assistance with filling in some of the blanks.

[On a scale from 1 to 10, the amount she wants to talk about those games is in the negatives, but--]

What is it you need to know about the second and sixth months of Year Y?

[keepscalm]

I'd like to know what the games entailed. My knowledge in both areas is severely lacking.

[sageprincess]

Very well.

There were three parts to the games during the second month of Year Y. At the beginning of the month, those chosen to participate were given stuffed toys to "take care of," and were told they had been "infected" with something. They were then taken away from the residential portion of the Tower, given a candle, and told to keep their candle lit throughout the night. Of course, there was something stalking them in the darkness, and if the candle went out, that something would attack.

The second part involved sweets being laced into the food. Upon consumption, they would alter the mind of the consumer in various ways depending upon what kind of sweet was eaten. One of my friends became obsessed with me to the point of stalking my every move, and another was overcome with sadism. Eating a plain chocolate reversed the effects.

The stuffed toys became important again in the third and final part of that month's game. Once again, those chosen to participate were taken away to another part of the Tower, and after performing a ritual upon the toy they were given, were told to hide. The toys came to life in the night, and slaughtered anyone they found. Unfortunately, I do not know what those who managed to stay hidden all night received or did, if anything.

[... Yep, now that she thinks about it, that first death is still probably the worst she's experienced during her time in the Tower.]

Would you like more detail, or shall I move on to month six?

You've my attention. I was involved in the game during month 6, year Y.

It seems that many people were.

What can you tell me about what happened, if you are willing to describe the experience?

I'm a pretty good hacker, so I can help with that, though I can't help much with any of the other parts.

[keepscalm]

Your contribution could be invaluable, regardless.

How good is "pretty good"?

Did you have any success in this?

[doc_brown]

I participated in the experiment of month 7 during year Y, and this is no good memory!

I also possess some hacking skills, though I do not know how helpful it could be.

I believe I have located a hacker, though I thank you for the offer.

I am still rather interested in your knowledge regarding Month 7, Year Y. If the knowledge is not too painful to share, what happened during that experiment?

[no_longer_a_king]

[Oh, hey. A rare time when Arturia is actually on the Network.]

What in particular happened during those months? If you don't mind me asking.

anon text

[keepscalm]

Regrettably, I'm not entirely sure. That is why I'm asking.

A few people have come forward with information regarding those months, if you're interested, as well.

*Month 7 of year Y...*

I believe I was in the experiment during Month 7, Year Y. That was the one where we woke in a series of puzzle rooms, correct?

((ooc: I'm not going to be able to give details on this, sadly, as we all sort of handwaved success because two of our group dropped the game before we were even past the first room.))

[keepscalm]

According to another generous contributor, yes. I wasn't involved at all, so I cannot offer first-hand confirmation.

[Also doing counting on fingers but he finally responded] Hello sir! I came here on... I think it was a day in the month 6 in your year X and I was in all those things I think except the month 7 of year Y because that was after when all the bad people were deciding who were the most bad and I was on my world then.

[Month 6 of Year X...? Going back through the network showed no posts earlier than June of that year. Did this boy arrive that early?]

I have been given sufficient information on everything from Year Y onwards. However, if you could relate to me your experiences regarding anything strange that happened between the day you arrived and Month 9 of Year X, I would be very grateful.

If at any point an event is too painful for you to recall, please do not hesitate to stop.

I think I might have been in some of those during year "Y".. I think. [ You sure sound sure of yourself, Urotsuki. ] Which ones were that..?

anon text

[keepscalm]

I have been informed that Month 2 involved multiple games wherein the participants were infected. Month 6 was apparently a competition between the administrators, and Month 7's happenings revolved around puzzle rooms.

My knowledge of these is limited to what those on this post have shared with me. If you remember anything about any of these strange events, you are welcome to contribute, as well.

Man there's way too much math in that for me to understand what you mean. What did when start where?

If such a simple dating system is beyond your understanding, perhaps you were not the intended audience of this post.
