ungeziefer All right, who wants to explain what the hell is happening here?Hello. I hope this message answers some of your questions.
Normally, Nut & Bolt ships will start a lockdown to scan for abnormalities during a lengthy space jump. Abnormalities are rare, but scans are necessary. The lockdown itself keeps certain features online, some stay offline to siphon energy to necessary parts. Lockdown lasts until the morning of the next day and can be prolonged with full permissions.
The one we had experienced is not the norm. It was unscheduled and we did not make a space jump. Through deduction, it means that it was a malfunction or that there was an abnormality found within the ship. While we were stuck in different areas without communication, we attempted an override command, but it had failed.
It would seem that two met their demise sometime between the lockdown and when we all woke up. Incapacitation is normally meant to sedate the threat. Senior crew are incapacitated later and wake earlier than junior crew, so they are expected to incarcerate or expel the problem, but upon checking the scan results of yesterday's lockdown nothing was found yet two are dead.
For now, we have ejected everyone who had stayed in suspicious areas, then locked those areas to preserve the scene with cryofreeze to investigate later. The shields will keep the areas in cryostasis and prevent anything from tampering with them.
Any ideas about what happened with the override? If you guys can't put a stop to things like that, what're we gonna do if the next blip in the system happens to shut off the air or something?
[like. did they die because of mechanical failures, actually.]
There are many precautions and failsafes for life support, so the likelihood of vital features being in jeopardy is extremely low. However, with what happened yesterday, we will be programming more exceptions to keep emergency vitals running and install more backup generators.
With the override. What should have happened was that the lockdown would end early and the gates would open. The ship must have believed there was an abnormality present, despite the report coming clean. Adrastea is looking through the system as we speak.
If the ship thinks something's wrong, it just does whatever it wants anyway?
[who programmed these systems, eudora. he knows next to nothing about this but he does feel relatively sure faust would not be impressed. (she's never impressed.)]
Well. Let us know if you end up finding anything. You might wanna consider telling everyone the situation, after messages like that going out.
Technically, sure, but usually a crew's got firmer expectations. Or do you all have different opinions on whether you feel like putting us to work is voluntary?
I don't think everyone's gonna end up being helpful.
Typically a crew isn't full of people who don't remember signing a contract. I know we're not exactly the textbook definition. We can't make any of you do anything at the end of the day.
Regardless, I imagine that some won't be while others want to find their answers as much as we do.

[ They did not program this ship. ]
We look to have something to present tomorrow... Though I worry that it may be an ask for assistance.
