On to the next round.

Let's get this party started by gassing up the room!

33027: Strannik - Sunday, August 21 2022 - 4:00 AM

That was a rich chapter drop !

By the way : no, the "animal" given to shallya was not explicitly stated, but we know that the naimal for Tobi is fish (page 1100)

So it wasn't as easy as just opening the door huh? Of course they make you grind for it, that's how they make games nowadays!

Very cool chapter, and there's 3 Burk ones to go!

33033: Straightbackward - Sunday, August 21 2022 - 6:58 AM

Watch your step? Are they gonna be dropped on rainbow tiles right away?

33035: Tom - Sunday, August 21 2022 - 7:18 AM

This was one hell of a drop.

I can already see Levin holding a door hostage.

33038: Stinger - Sunday, August 21 2022 - 7:34 AM

Wow, they added microtransactions to this game too huh.

We already got lootbox mechanics in the rainbow tile tower.

Worst company in Lorg, its probably way less ethical than Death Run

33050: Aston Whiteman - Sunday, August 21 2022 - 10:43 AM

Except for Three.

33052: someone - Sunday, August 21 2022 - 12:03 PM

@Stinger: at 15 millions to open the exit area and 10 millions per actual exit door, those are definitely not microtransactions. More like macrotransactions.

33053: Sean - Sunday, August 21 2022 - 12:08 PM

So who do people think is the host at this point?

33054: Feddlefew - Sunday, August 21 2022 - 1:00 PM

Hurray for chapter drops!
Why is the the yellow contestant’s door locked?

33066: player_03 - Sunday, August 21 2022 - 3:03 PM

Reposting some thoughts from the middle of the chapter: I don't think we've yet seen the part that requires cleaners to survive. The final round could be nasty.

Unless... the ghoul was intended, and without someone capable of fighting/talking to ghouls, everyone would have died? (Implying Levin can actually fight a ghoul. Jay-Jay may have been smart not to take him on.)

If the ghoul was part of the game, and that's why the experiment required a magic user, then that implies that Houston was meant to kill Infinite or Jay-Jay. I'm not saying he knew what would happen, just that the Smile Foundation knew his mission would lead to him killing Infinite, and therefore gave him carte blanche. None of this is conclusive, but the pieces fit together nicely.

33067: player_03 - Sunday, August 21 2022 - 3:14 PM

@Sean My top two suspects are Maria (used some very suspicious wording on the train ride) and Levin (has been playing dumb the entire time), followed by Glint/Green (is not contributing to the escape), Houston (killed exactly the right person to create a ghoul), and Random Unremarkable Gangster (has gotten so little attention that I don't remember his name or color).

I see no reason to suspect Bindy or Foxy, but can't fully rule them out. I'm happy to rule out Shalia and Three on account of personality, and we know for sure it isn't Jay-Jay (joined late) or Tobi.

33068: AnonymousPerson - Sunday, August 21 2022 - 3:26 PM

Bindy seems genuinely confused, but damn if that isn't shady...

33070: Strannik - Sunday, August 21 2022 - 4:39 PM

Player 3 : indedd, the reaction of Housten page 1180 is interesting in that regard... it can both be understood as either a magic user being his target defined by the game, or a mistrust in magic user and their dangerousness in such a game.

About the game host, his presence amidst the experiment is strange : interacting with the players would an interference, and potentialy a major bias in the study. A viable reason would be to be able to witness the subjects interaction outside of cameras, without the one interacting directly. If this is the case : the quiet gangster would be the number one suspect.

Of course, there is still the possibility that the game host was Mr Smile : either the grafted part that was hijacking the person from time to time, or as the host in the sens of owner of the mine/facility (who in this case could have been embarked in the game without his consent ??)

33071: Cluedrew - Sunday, August 21 2022 - 5:11 PM

This is such a small thing compared to everything else going on, but I can't help but wonder: how much prize money will actually get to leave the game? 25 million is the absolute minimum to get anyone out and as much as money has been flowing through the game, that isn't a trivial amount.

33072: TheMegax - Sunday, August 21 2022 - 9:27 PM

@player_3

Houston is looking for the host, it's very unlikely it's himself. Glint is out of the picture too due to the interrogation Houston made.
Jay-jay said under oath it isn't her, and Shalhia shares the same rules.
We've seen Tobi and Three's point of view so we know it isn't them.

This leaves Bindy, Foxy, Levin, Yellow and Glasses lady... assuming the host isn't dead already.
