[Madoka will find him on the fourth floor! Lingering, even as he's not actively on guard duty at this hour of the night. His expression is just as blank as it was at the end of the trial, but he at least glances over to Madoka once she approaches him.]

... You're welcome. [Flat. Subdued.] I wish I could have done more, however.

[Guy was caught, but... One more killer got away, and their friends are still dead.]

[ NO MY TYPO oh well.

she nods... ]

Me too. I think everyone did such an amazing job... But in the end we still only caught one of them, and only because... [ Luke blabbed. ]

i didnt even see the typo....rip

[tootsiepop]

Only because Luke outed him.

[Hah. Haha. God.]

Once again, we're barely scraping by at the last possible minute.

it's fine, i'm at peace with it

What are we doing wrong...? What can we do better?

[ it's so hard to plan for improbable and weird murders ]

[tootsiepop]

... I don't know. It's not as if we aren't making an effort.

[it sure is hard!!]

I think part of the problem is that... The problem we're working to resolve for the gods is almost completely separate from the contest itself.

If it's a matter of... [ come on now madoka we're five weeks in you can say kill ] Killing people to make sure your god wins, you would need to know their alignment before that's a smart move. And for the rest of us, even knowing who one of the killers was this week, we didn't know his alignment either...

[tootsiepop]

And yet, people continue to kill indiscriminately. Even though murder was never an obligatory part of this competition. [It's, you know, back.] We can't even say for certain that whoever has aligned themselves with one god today, will still be part of their following tomorrow.

I understand them needing our help to resolve it... And I understand systems that - require people to suffer for a good cause...

But this isn't effective...
