TEXT | sender: [ unknown ]
[ around noon on friday, all tablet screens go dark at the same time, no matter what characters are doing. then, after a moment, the following text appears: ]
[ as promised, screens return to normal. however, a new message appears on the network for all to see ]
SECURITY ACCESS UPDATED
ADDING INFORMATION POINTS
ADDING INFORMATION AND INSTRUCTIONS
WARNING: CRITICAL SYSTEM FAILURES DETECTED
HARD RESET IS REQUIRED
→Access EXPIATION'S five manual terminals
→Input code: 2467362925315
→Initialize reset simultaneously at all terminals.
→SYSTEM RESET will restore all functions to BASIC OPERATING PARAMETERS. Extraneous data and information updates will be DELETED.
→Terminal access points shown below.
[ all tablet maps are updated to include several different location pins. users will notice that there are more pins than the number of terminals, and that they don't seem to be terribly specific about exact locations. users will also note that the pins sometimes seem to fade and flicker, as if they might disappear... ]
Security clearances acquired.
Access granted.
Terminals online and accessible.
System failure is imminent. Due to perpetual lack of upkeep, I am unable to maintain systems at optimal levels.
Chosen of Expiation, I am sorry. I never meant to hurt you.
Save yourselves.
ERROR: user offline
[ the AI will not respond to this message, and the ERROR: USER OFFLINE message appears if anyone attempts to message it. however, the network chat remains active. chosen can use this space to ICly discuss ideas and strategies, to have discussions about the best way to move forward, or even to have arguments over whose ideas they think are better. ideas generated here will be added to the event poll when the event goes up, and can impact the future of the game! have at it, go wild, and have fun! ]

I think they would decrease significantly. That AI is what's keeping our consciousnesses afloat and our environment rational. When it's working, anyway. I don't want to chain her, I want to help her grow a little.
I intend to skim through the code base before we do a restore to make sure there's nothing lethal or otherwise untoward hiding -- it'd be great to have you and the STEM club help with that -- and then I want to make sure she can keep talking to us after reset. Maybe even add something to free her from her non-interference schtick if I can, assuming her primary function really is to protect us as she says it is.
