Unfortunately I cannot speculate on how to improve on a possible future trend. While there was no breach of the rules in this specific incident, I would caution participants in potential future incidents to consider carefully their characters' motivations. Not every blackmail attempt should be met with murder. This was a specific case in which the blackmailed character had a sufficient support structure, and through the actions of other characters, was able to formulate a plan that involved neutralizing the offending traitor. As for question two, feel free to contact me privately on discord, as that seems tangentially related to the complaint, and it will be easier to speak in such a format, as I can reference your notes directly without putting them out on the public forums. Let me know if you have further concerns about this complaint, otherwise I will mark it resolved.

Alright, I apologize for the delay. @Goret and I have had some time to go over the logs and review the events throughout the round. We've both independently come to the conclusion that there was sufficient reason for Locke to kill Ethernet, so it was by no means gank. Furthermore, we've concluded that there was sufficient escalation throughout the round leading up to the death, as Ethernet pretty much told Locke that if they didn't kill Imran (at the time, but later Ana), they would be exposed to the authorities, as well as several other conversations throughout the round. In the end, it comes down to whether or not Locke reacted reasonably to the threats Ethernet put forth, and we've determined that they did so. Just how a security officer can be killed if they walk in on an ongoing crime without the antag having to sit there and monologue, the antag should be prepared to be killed if they make threats that could reasonably be met with lethal intent. In this case, the antag in question threatened Locke with blackmail that would lead to their destruction if they did not comply, but it backfired due to the actions of several other characters. If there are no further concerns, either Goret or I will mark this complaint as resolved and lock this thread in 24 hours.

Always a pleasure to play with you, Tagada. A comprehensive and well thought out list. Teaching new players was always something I would make an effort to do (and still do, on the occasion I find myself in-game with one). I definitely cannot stress enough the importance of rule 0, and I am glad you agree. Nothing is worse than a quiet department with several members. It is exponentially more difficult to work as a team when no one talks to one another.

I will be contacting you sometime in the next day or two to schedule an interview.

@Goret and I will be handling this complaint. Please give us some time to go over everything. Just so I am 100% sure I understand correctly. @UnknownMurder you think what happened was gank, and @Melariara deemed it an IC issue, correct?

After discussing with the applicant I will be denying this application. Locking and Archiving.

Trial began as of 28th of May, 2020. It will conclude in one month's time, on 28th of June, 2020.

You were only around for like 30 minutes at the end of a round I played Chief Engineer in, and we only interacted for a few minutes. But in the time you were there you didn't set off any red flags and were pleasant to converse with.
