The Trial (Round One - Page 5

Ah okay. It's just that I had no questions to ask Helion before Jackaroo spoke.

I think it's better to alternate though. Cos attorney is in another time zone, so they can keep the thread active while I'm sleeping.. I can't check all day during uni days, so it's gonna be a slow game if you just wait for me.

Every witness and the defendant only know bits and pieces. The only thing the defendant knows more than me is whether or not he killed them. i know the rest, and the point of the trial is to uncover the truth.

But can't the defendant just.. change their mind during the game about the "truth" if they're the only one that knows it?

If someone is the real killer, i give them a minimum amount of truths they MUST say. if they arent, i may or may not give them a minimum amount of lies, but that's only for witnesses.

Hm but you said that was for witnesses.

You said that defendant (jackaroo) is the only one that knows if he was a murderer or not, right? So if he's the only one that knows, isn't it easy for him to "change his mind"? It's hard to uncover the "truth" if only one person knows.. if you get what I mean.

i also know what it is, so if he lies COMPLETELY, i'll force him to revise his statement, or the game will end and he will lose. They need at least 1+ truth. i was saying the lies were only for witnesses; the defendant will always get to tell the truth if they so choose. As long as im the narrator, at least. if someone else takes over, it's up to them to choose how they'll create the game.

But that means defendant can still lie, right? So defendant AND witnesses can lie.. except witnesses have a limit, but defendants do not?

the defendant CAN lie, but there will always be at least ONE grain of truth. Witnesses CAN lie, but they only should, strategicly, if it incriminates them.
