The Boogies Decision #4

Rhyming dialogue, the agent we're after has a distinct speech style... I wonder if they're the one we're after? Does that mean they can be trusted? I don't know enough about boogies to know if they can replicate voice, but I'm at least more inclined to listen when Ms Rhymy decides to speak up again. ...I assume we're looking for a girl anyway.

You guys worry too much.

I have a feeling we are not doing do hot

It appeared the updates moved votes towards A/hiding, so it's safe to say having the proper text to begin with would have only increased the margin A won by, as A won regardless.

So without that new sentence in the original text, it sounded like all the boogies now know where we are and would all be coming for us. So we had the option to hide by the door to try to slip out and hope that we aren't swarmed by a large group of boogies that enter the room, or exit the room and try to flee before the horde arrives. Though now with that missing sentence added in, we just have one boogie heading towards us, which changes how to view the options. So we can try to hide by the door and try to slip past the single boogie as it enters the room, or exit the room and hope we don't run into the one boogie. I don't know how many people got their votes in before the update and how many of those folks saw the update and decided to change their votes as a result. Just have to hope that the winning vote was the right one.

Make a choice when poll first opens based on dialogue in initial image post. Then after poll closes, sees that the image had been updated since casting vote to include a sentence that was missing from original post that would most likely affect reason for picking original vote instead of the other choice. I wonder how many other folks made their votes before the image was updated with additional info, only to learn about the update after the fact? Really makes me wonder if just flipping a coin would be better at this point.

24 hrs have elapsed, time to see if we chose right.

Xavier

Sounds like it might be the Agent that ended up incommunicado. In other words: Our target.

Silvris

The question isn't why are they rhyming, the question is if it gives us a clue about their identity. Perhaps the pre-mission briefing could she light on this...

ozone

Ozone, any particular reason the voice on the intercom is rhyming? Are we to assume they are the one responsible for the note in the locker?

Xavier

I think hiding may be the better option. I’m afraid the electricity might be interfering with the suit, making running a difficult task right now. But at the same time those things might be on their way and this might be our only shot to get away from them, and they’ve found us once before. Ooo decisions

TalkingLoud

I am suspicious of the "cabinet" next to the door.

a b

Smaller the gap the slower they can leak through. Though your intention is to hide beside it.

ozone

Does the crate have a top cover, or can the Boogie just go through tha smallest of gaps?

If we get a game over, I'll be convinced that boogies are sabotaging the votes

BivPlays

Guys please don't run out

Moka113

If we're numb, it might mean we won't be able to flee very well once we're out the door. On the flip side, it could slow our reaction speed enough if we were to wait by the door, and we KNOW one (probably more) is coming this way quick, and we can't rely on out running them (based on how we got to the button at the same time as the booby). So, we need as much distance as possible, yesterday. That suit does look really sweet though.

My first instinct was to exit, outspeed the one out there, and even if it goes see us, get out of sight and keep going. So obviously, the actual answer is to hide, because my instincts are terrible.

supercomputer276

We've already noticed that. Seems like some people either don't read the comments, or are actively trying to get us to Game Over.

Silvris

Worth remembering is the last one was quickly accompanied by another when we messed up. So maybe barging out isn't a good idea....

Vusvox

Ok I'm changing my vote after Gabeny brought up a good point, another one did show up immediately after the first, so it's probably on it's way now.

CBJ

ok, good to know. I'm going to take that as "it will be gone by the time you reach the door". So no running into another Boogie while charged with boogie-be-gone.

Silvris

The static fades. And it's possible boogies can't even see that spectrum of light, given it neutralizes them.

ozone

The door is under the rectangular red light. Yes, that's a crate. Hiding behind it is a good suggestion.

ozone

Now that you mention it... Ozoneserpent? How long does that Static Charge stick around?

Silvris

True, you are a bit numb. It might be wise to hide beside that large storage crate and let it wear off.

ozone

It honestly feels like a coin flip between running out the door and straight into a boogie, and hiding behind this boxes by the door and getting noticed thanks to the red static. Unless the static fades by then, at least.

BivPlays

Is the Door the big or the small thing in the background? Because if it the the big one, I suggest hiding behind the other thing. Looks a bit like a crate.

Silvris

I'll add you only have to worry about one coming, as the one who's speaking to you is splitting their attention.

ozone

Very good analysis actually.

ozone

Plus, it saw us by the button. The exit is behind us, so if we hide beside the crate it might walk past us, and we could just slip on by.

Gabeny

So hold on, 'if one sees, they all see,' we know that they're a hive mind of sorts. In one of the bad endings, the first Booby bad end, something 'came in and finished the transformation.' So... that would mean there's one nearby, no? And if one just saw us and went offline, then it's probably on it's way here now, and we might bump into it on the way out.

Gabeny

Wajt a minute... if that button released the discharge, whos to say it didnt mess up the suit in anyway? Our agility may or may not have been nullified. However... it could also be a red herring, so whos to say. It certainly does seem that button is a get out of jail free card however, but i highly doubt itll be sprinkled everywhere
