well, i had to create an account just to reply to this report, i didn’t even know this forum existed for that.
Since i was the CL, I’ll give my point of view so you guys can understand what happened.
this whole situation started developing right from the beginning of the round, almost in the very first minute (or close to it). I was reading the company fax and writing one when suddenly a random MT (iI think it was Tamy) simply walked into my office asking my bodyguard for a charcoal suit, Since i was writhing a fax and it made no sense AT ALL for a corporate to just hand out their clothes, i told my bodyguard to ask her to leave.
note: as i saw here in this forum my bodyguard actually gave it to them.
That’s when things started to get worse. A few minutes later, i don’t remember exatly, but the marines hadn’t even started the operation yet or had just left, when a random doctor came into my office because the Mess Techs (chefs) were calling for me in the kitchen. When i arrived, they started calling me inside along with some MTs and the CE, and they began saying they were going to “butcher” me because i didn’t give the suit to Tamy. i simply said: “is that all? i have a lot to do.” and walked away because i really felt they were going to attack me in that room.
note: i had no idea they had some druglords gimmick or something like that.
Right after that, they invaded my office, hacked the doors, and stole things from my room. my first tought was that it had been Tamy, the Maintenance Tech, and that they were probably some kind of Group/Gang since everyone had been calling me into the kitchen as I mentioned earlier. The FIRST thing i did was report to the CMP that they had Broken in my office, while i sent my bodyguard to look for her. Meanwhile, my bodyguard reported over the radio that they had shot shotgun slugs at him and attacked him. After explaining this to the CMP about 20 times, he just answered that he’d “check it out”. Another MP who came to our office later simply said: “*If they do this again, you can shoot them, I don’t care.” (*this MP would become a huge problem later in the situation). After that, i sent a fax to the WY and brought the first security beacon to call in reinforcements (i didn’t realize there were no admins online, so no one responded).
Then, the MPs sent the MTs to my office to “fix the issue”, and since i didn’t know it hadn’t been Larry and Tamy (as they claim here on the forum), I was simply requesting their arrest - wich I was ignored. Soon after, the Chefs and the CE invaded my office again, through a hole in my bathroom wall. the MPs were telling them to stop and threatening to arrest them with their stuns, while i had already asked at least five times for them to just arrest them already. That’s when chaos broke out: MPs chasing the CE and Chefs, and me using the stun gun on the ones who stayed behind (larry and another one) as mentioned on the report. he disarmed me, they stole my stun gun, shot me and my bodyguard and ran away, exept larry, who kept fighting us and was actually winning util we finally managed to stun him and lock him in our secret room.
Note: I hadn’t noticed, but apparently someone (I think my bodyguard) shot him after being disarmed and losing the stun baton, which caused IB on him (I didn’t realize it at the time).
with him locked in the room, my idea was to use the implant that delivers shocks, to make him talk about why all this was happening and to help us catch the rest of his group. (The idea was to try and create some RP with him, make him obey orders, and go after his friends, since the MPs were basically doing nothing). Keep in mind, i did NOT know he wasn’t involved. To me, they were all part of a gang, especially since even the CE was with them.
That’s when the chefs invaded again. The door sensors alerted us, so i had to seal the secret room so they wouldn’t know Larry was there. Then the chefs started breaking holes and hacking doors until they got to the floor below us, yelling “Where’s Larry?” while spamming sprays of space drugs on us. Again I called the CMP to my office, and once he arrived, he just stood there watching us while I told him to arrest the chefs. Then the other MP showed up (the one I mentioned earlier who would be a problem), saying he had seen Larry there and that we had him. They insisted on checking my whole office, so I opened the doors, they found nothing, and even then the MP and the chefs kept saying I had Larry hidden, while I was telling everyone to leave. The CMP just kept staring and saying: “Where’s Larry?”
NOTE: about the MP who tought I was toxic for yelling at him - this was all in-game, and you took it personally. I was roleplaying as a corporate, and you were simply letting them drug me and my CB while I was yelling: “Arrest them, they’re attacking us and invading!” and you just said: “We already arrested like five of them.” But all of them were still in my office next to the secret room where I was trying to hide Larry to avoid making things worse. and about the “high command” i was saying about my special services division and the marines high command… a simple FAX not a ADMIN REPORT IC. i just used bad choice of words.
That’s when I bought another security beacon to try and get some help from someone, but again no response. After the MPs ignored the situation and the chefs drugged us again, I simply told my bodyguard to shoot. He chose lethal, and I was fine with that. A shootout started, I went into IB and blood loss, and the doctor (the same one who called me to the kitchen earlier) took me to surgery, helped the chefs kill my bodyguard, and beat me unconscious.
For some reason, they then decided to steal my bodyguard’s ID and tamper with a computer that opened the secret room (wich is kinda strange for a chef to do), where Larry unfortunately had died of IB. We had no TIME or SPACE to check if he was okay or to continue any RP with him.
Another NOTE: one of the chefs told me in the ghost chat that he was actually trying to help me being loyal to the company, to you… I didn’t have any way to notice this because there was so much chaos there.
After all this, the MP arrested me while the xenos were invading the ship, and while the chefs were beating me up in the middle of the fight against the xenos. The only thing I did to defend myself was shove one of them to try and escape… in the end, everyone died.
This is my point of view: there was a CE helping a gang commit crimes, MPs who just stood there watching while I was attacked and drugged, invasions happening right in front of them and they just said they “couldn’t do anything,” and the WY reinforcements that never came (I spent 100 points from the briefcase to buy 2 security beacons, so this whole ordeal lasted a long time).
and a summary because that’s a big text:
From the very beginning of the round they were clearly trying to cause trouble, which I didn’t mind since it’s cool to have something interesting happening shipside and gave bodyguard something to do. I did everything in my power to avoid drastic measures like kidnapping someone, but nothing was resolved. Larry’s abduction was the last thing I did, and even then it was with the intention of building RP out of it - trying to make him work for us through brainwashing or something similar. I didn’t know he was dying, since during the chaos I even heard sounds of someone banging on walls (when you click with an empty hand on a wall and it makes that small noise). Nothing I said to the MPs was out of character; I had every right to complain about them since they were watching me get attacked and I even called CIC for help on the command radio, but they were busy keeping the marines alive on the colony, which I can understand.
The whole time i was thinking on ways to get RP from everything that happened, i was even waiting for points to call a lawyer team since i told the MPs I was going to SUE them and make more people join the RP wich could have been something cool if unfortunate things didn’t happen. Larry’s death was unpredicted and i didn’t have any intentions of letting him ROT there neither had any to Report the MP OOC.
that’s all.
