[You find yourself in a bright white room, the door locked shut behind you. There's a long glass table in the middle of the room, with an unsealed envelope on top—it contains your instructions; if you can't read them yourself, you'll hear Nyssa's voice whispering in your ear, reading them aloud for you. Surrounding the table are enough glass chairs for everyone to sit down.

The floor is made of glass, and taking up most of the wall opposite the door is a window. The room beyond is currently empty …]

[Will you buy additional Pardons? How many?]

[Who will receive your Pardons?

The format to use is: CONVICT # - # of Pardons.

If you'd like to Contact a Lawyer, this is where you do it! Just say who you're targeting and who will be receiving.]

[...well fuck.]

We don't know who these are.

Airing our dirty laundry, huh... [ haha he cares a lot more about where his ended up than whoever's these are. ]

So what d'you wanna do, Blade?

[he's staring at number 5...]

I don't think it's worth buying more pardons. Not at this stage. Unless you recognise any of these?

No.

So we hafta pick the lesser sins, right...? [ looking them over... these all sound shitty, but some are slightly more shitty than others... ]

Well, either that or put our pardons on the worse sins to mitigate other people not pardoning them.

[that is probably the Star thing to do]

Some other teams will be getting as many pardons as they can. But, if it's the same as ours, that will still leave one convict they can't pardon if they spread them to everyone.

...I think 7 might be me.

So you wanna pick the worst instead?

[ ...SHRUGS. ]

Sure.

[he'd been so distracted by all the murder ones and trying to figure out if they were his, that he managed to overlook that one.]

Ah. You could be right. Do you want us to get some extra pardons, then?

It's hard to guess how others will play. A split between the worst and the best seems like the most practical thing to do.
