Mission Midori

[Lithuania]

I think Spain, that what Meri means is that, cos 'em' is short/slang for 'them' and 'them' can be considered plural, which means the word we are talking about would end in an 's'

I'm clueless though XD

[[x] Spain]

(/>[]<)/ |____| TOO MUCH THINKING!!!

[America]

Yeah, I tried making it so it DIDN'T end with an 'S', but...an 'S' is the only way we can possibly have a plural word, I do believe. It is confusing. Unless it's brains. Then it's, "Well, DUH."

Brainnnnns

I feel like that zombie in YGTAS...

[England]

Hahahha, the zombie in YGOTAS. I love him.

You guys are on fire xDDD I'll call the zombie mod, see if she can get on soon. I know she's not home today, but maybe she can spare a moment on her Ipod, or something? (:

What's your final answer, guys?

[America]

...Er...

I'M going with brains. If anyone has any better ideas, though...please speak up. ^.^;

[[x] Hong Kong]

Um, not to intrude, but I was putting the letters in some different orders, and I got a few different words (I kept the second A, BTW):

Barnis- Lacquer
Rabisan- A Health Organization
Sanbari- A very common name.

I'll shut up now, thanks/

[[x] Spain]

Hm.. I'm going with "brains", but let's keep your suggestions in mind, HK. ^^

[Zombies]

England, I hope you're happy. I did as you repeatedly nagged me to do: got on to validate. Now shut up.

Brains is your final answer?

...

Very well, that is correct. Why? Here's why:

- Mission "Midori". Midori starts with the letter "M" so you could spell "brains" if you removed all the Ms from the remaining letters in the grid.
-"Aim for 'em". Aim for the brain, because that's the only way you can kill a zombie. Also, 'em stood for "them" (congrats on finding that out), so it had to be a plural word, so "brains".
- Originally, the two words, crowbar and brains, weren't supposed to have a connection between them, but now that I think about it, it's true that you could use a crowbar to either bash in a zombie's head, damaging the brain, or to hook it through the eyesocket and push to damage the brain directly. Remember: crowbars are the makeshift weapon of close-combat of choice, because they are long, light, durable, and have a hook at the end. They also provide leverage.
- You will find out why the mission is called "Midori" soon enough. The warehouse's scientists must pay attention to the following information because it will help them construct the vaccine.
- Last, but not least, I was somewhat surprised by how you all discarded "brains" so easily numerous times, even if England helped you a lot more than she should have (yes, I saw that. Cheater). I thought it would be simple. My mistake. I will try to leave more clues next time.

Alright then, that is all. Congratulations to everybody, and good job, everyone who participated in missions. All that's left to do now is quickly tie up your respective mission threads, and you're done. The scientists don't need to wait for the teams to finish their roleplays before starting the vaccine concoction. We've wasted a lot of time already as is.

Good job, once again, everybody! I do look forward to roleplaying with you all again soon.

Mission Midori has been successfully accomplished!

TO ALL LAB SCIENTISTS:
If you are not a lab scientist, you cannot comment about the clues I will give below. Nothing stops you, though, from communicating by PM to exchange ideas.

Protocol to making the vaccine:

- Team Nova has brought back papers that explain the molecular structure of the particles you'll need to synthesize in order to create your vaccine. Here is the summary of those papers:


I'm not a chemistry major at all, so don't pay attention to anything but the colors and placements of the elements. Nothing too technical. I know that the molecule is probably even impossible to create, but hush. This is fandom. Also, you might need a periodic table to help you with this, unless you're a chemistry wiz and know your table by heart.

- Combined with the colourless medicine tablets that Team Go For It, Bomber! brought back, crushed into a fine powder, this molecule will create the vaccine.

- Unfortunately, synthesis of this vaccine is very slow, so you can choose to use a catalyst.
Note: For those of you who don't know, a catalyst is basically an element that only increases the speed of reaction and doesn't mess with the reaction itself.
There are four catalysts you can choose from, and depending on which one you use, the vaccine will take more or less time to finish. This is important, because depending on how much time you take, England's life clock will tick down accordingly. One of them will make the vaccine in 5 hours, another in 4, another in 3, and another in 2. I have associated these times at random with the given catalysts, so pick one at random, and hope for the best:

1) Mn 2) Hg 3) Au 4) Te

- You can use the syringes brought back by Team Team to administer the vaccine once it is done. One scientist or medic can, at this point, go to the "Countdown" thread in the Quarantine Area (Hospital Wing) and administer the vaccine.

- After this, the vaccine will be available in endless quantities, but if ever someone is bitten and needs a shot, they will still have to wait from 2-5 hours for the medics/scientists to synthesize them a vaccine (after this, the roleplayers can decide how much time their vaccine is going to take). Remember that during this lapse of time, they MUST be quarantined.

That is all. Good luck!
I know that maybe this isn't clear for some of you, so... If you have comprehension questions about the scientists' puzzle, feel free to PM me or just comment here: I will try to be on for a bit longer to answer.

[Argentina]

...IT WAS SERIOUSLY BRAINS?! *Facedeskfacedeskfacedesk* Good God! ;A; I thought brains was too easy of an answer, which is why I didn't pay it much attention!

YOU SEE?! THIS IS WHAT I MEANT BY RIGHT IN FRONT OF MY FACE! OMOMFPMPMPWM20P0-S But reading too much into stuff seems to be my thing...

[Japan]

Well...since Finland is MIA and I have no idea when Wales logs in...I suppose I ought to get to work trying to puzzle through this.

And brains...geez guys, no brainer, huh? *shot* (It's always the most obvious answers we discard first. Goodness love you Meri for continuing to try! <3)

Hmm...been awhile since my last chemistry class, but as I recall I didn't blow up any labs or set anything on fire I wasn't supposed to...and no one died...so I suppose those ought to be reassuring in some way >.>

[[x] South Korea]

O.o *just saw that if you are not a lab scientist, you cannot comment on the clues* FINE THEN. *skips off to sulk in corner of loves-chemistry*

[Zombies]

If you really want to contribute, South Korea, you could always PM Japan, or discuss it in the Out of Character discussion thread? As long as it's not here, I won't mind.

Also, Japan, don't worry, you don't actually need chemistry knowledge to figure it out. It's very very easy. So unless you failed preschool, you should be able to do it in a snap. Lots of technical terms to hide the fact that it's basic logic underneath.

[England]

OH MY GOD, WHY ARE YOU BITCHING AT ME SO MUCH!? xDDD You suck, ZM. You suck. I was just trying to help :'D

[[x] South Korea]

XD I realize this, Zombie xD

[Japan]

You should have done it less obviously, England. Like "Geez Meri, don't bash your brains out trying to figure out the clues. I'm sure you can solve 'em!" *shot*

AND JUST BECAUSE I TIED MY SHOE TO THE DESK ONE TIME--*coughs* Ahem...no...and the only way you COULD fail this is if you were colorblind (which I am not, but I thought I'd point that out XD)
