ROT 1.2 PATCH NOTES:
Videos will be every 10 days instead of weekly, to give residents more time to deliberate and to give ROT officers more time to conduct the video transmissions.
ROT consequences, such as Elias True being barred from the medical field upon release, will be stated in Stage 1 rather than Stage 2.
Questions now come from more unique sources rather than purely from upvotes, to give residents contributing late a chance to still be involved.

Mrs. Whistles: How exactly did Officer Turmins slant the narrative?
This needs more votes.
Officer Madina: can we see footage from her husband's case?
Mrs. Whistle, please blink twice or tap your nose in thought if you're being fed information or being blackmailed. Officer Madina, I ask that you don't say this question out loud.
Officer Madina, could you give more detail about Whistle's husband's ROT case? What was his charge and how did he end up getting ostracized?
I’d like to know too, but I don’t think it will be relevant to forming a decision on Mrs. Whistle’s fate.
It might. If he's a serial murderer, her getting angry and killing for revenge could make her an accomplice, which shows she could kill again.
@@EeveeTrainerAlex if her husband was fairly or unfairly convicted of murder, Abaca isn’t charged with involvement in that crime. She has been convicted of the murder of Officer Turmins.
ask to provide a transcript, maybe it DID use some biased language
@@AlphaPizzadogI'm with him. Maybe the crime itself isn't important, but learning what was said could help influence our decision.
To Officer Medina, can we get more information on Officer Terman? How did he handle Whistle's husband's case? Has he had any other record/reports of temperament or misconduct in the past?
Mrs. Whistle: why were you reading from a written statement?
Mrs.Whistles: If there is a chance your husband is still alive on the planet, would you prefer people to vote O instead of R?
Oh, that's a GOOD question!
What does it matter what the convicted wants?
@@UninvitedGhostAlot, actually. Its his situation that seemingly caused all of this to begin with. If it turns out he's alive, that situation turns a different colour and a simple case of revenge turns meaningless.
@@CamelofDestiny The issue is that the question only raises an hypothesis as written. It is not asking whether Mr Whistle "is" alive or not. It's asking what should happens "if" he's alive, and since him being alive is impossible to Mrs Whistle and very likely unknown to our beloved officer... Because the question is not assertive enough, the answer will be "R".
@@helianekatelia1918well in lore no one would know if her husband is alive or not. there is no contact on planet beyond knowing of the existence of some kinda civilization being formed. A hypothetical is all anyone can have.
Plus emotions are high and a question like this would provoke an interesting reaction from Mrs. Whistles, shes so set into wanting R i wanna see how set she truely is.
Officer Madina, as a ROT Officer yourself, can you provide any backing OR contradictory evidence to Miss Whistle's claims that Officer Termins was deliberately manipulating his case towards specific outcomes? Such as withholding evidence, only broadcasting specific statements of the accused, etc? Have you, or whoever is in charge of complaints regarding conduct by ROT Officers, actually received complaints on Termins's conduct? Please answer truthfully so that we may deliver an accurate verdict.
Mrs. Whistles: How was the officer murdered?
To both parties: Can you explain the details of this parent cycle system and why it was implemented? I feel as though this could have surprising relevance to the case.
Personally, from the ads and notices we get on the side monitor, now and during the True case, I get the impression that "cycles" are how the passage of time is marked on the station. When a Cycle ends, everyone's Cycle number goes up by 1. Everyone's current Cycle is tracked, and that number functions as your official age and also grants or revokes certain rights and privileges, with children sometimes having _more_ privileges (as they are the future of the station and its leadership, making their health, intelligence, and mental wellbeing high-priority), as well as determining certain aspects of resource allocation, with, for instance, children playing with specific toys for their Cycle 2, then returning them as the Cycle ends so they can get new Cycle 3 toys and the Cycle 2 toys can be played with by the new kids entering Cycle 2.
From Mrs. Whistle's testimony specifically, it sounds like people sign up to be certified to raise children, and then when a child is born he is assigned to one of these certified families, who raise him for one Cycle before he's passed to another certified family, which raises him for a Cycle, and so on up until he reaches whatever cycle is considered to be the first "adult" Cycle. I assume it is generally believed that this method of child-rearing raises "peers" that have less of an emotional attachment to specific sub-groups of their "peers", and thus are less likely to bend the rules in favor of those who raised them. I imagine "Please! It's for your father!" or "C'mon! I'm your big sister!" don't hit quite so hard when you have almost _twenty_ fathers and nearly a _hundred_ sisters.
@@Anastas1786 That's not impossible but that's a *lot* of assumptions being made and it's best if we make as few of those as possible.
@@Anastas1786Still, detachement syndrome would be a threat to every kid from such a society. The cycle system is a bad idea, making its inclusion in the world-building of this story a total incoherence.
@Donjonneau it's dystopia for a reason
Miss Whistle and Officer Madina, could you both recount how Miss Whistle was discovered to be guilty of Officer Termins's death? Please answer truthfully so that we may deliver an accurate verdict.
Yes, that would be good to know.
Would you say your motive was made to stop a wrongful conviction and future incidents from occuring or made for your own justice on how your husband ended up?
He was retiring, changing fute cases is off the table.
Officer Medina, what does the oversight and accountability look like for the officers of the ROT system?
That small newsbox in the corner is worth paying attention to. There will be hints worming their way in there.
Officer Madina, could you provide the statistics for Officer Termans' ROT convictions? How did they compare to other officers who preformed similar duties, such as yourself?
Edit: @Zelebirbo asked a similar, but more detailed question. Consider upvoting them instead.
This is the big one here. Depending on how they look, it could shape the entire narrative.
And are there records of other complaints against Officer Termans for similar actions, as with Mrs. Whistle’s filed complaints?
This is a great question but I think the way @Zelebirbo framed it below is a better version of the question, so I'd suggest we try to push that one up.
@@PratzStrike agreed.
Officer Madina, could you explain the method and circumstances behind the murder of Officer Termins?
Mrs. Whistle, could you potentially understand that Officer Termins made the correct decisions in his presentation of your husband's case and that due to your emotional trauma, fabricated a justification for your actions?
Objection, the question is leading
@@MissCbenav”I’m not a number, I’m a FREE MAN!!!” -The Prisoner-
Officer Madina: Can we get a transcript of the ROT trial mentioned by the accused?
Officer Madina, were there any other complaints filed regarding the deceased officer? If so, what was the nature of the filed complaints?
Agreed. I would like to know this.
Officer Medina, could you give more details about the care of the child entrusted to the accused? (example: student performance, quality of food, living conditions)
To Convict: If ostracized, but given records and updates on Gene's growing, would this be a suitable compromise for you?
*Gene, subtitles say so
@@youtubeuniversity3638 ah whoops, i'll fix that
Mrs. Whistle, did Linus and Officer Termins have a known troubled relationship, or cause for animosity?
Mrs.Whistles: Even if Termin's actions were unjust, it's not like he was in a position to do more harm after retiring. Don't you understand that releasing a vengeful murderer because of "special circumstances" might set a dangerous example for the rest of Concetta?
Questions I would have asked have been asked, excited to see the interrogation! Also looks like Mr. True is exploring new career paths :)
Officer Madina, Who is in charge of looking into the filed complaints against Officer Termins, and if overlooked by a person or team do they have any previous established relationship that could have made them look the other way?
great engagement on this! love it
Thank you!
Question for Mrs. Whistle, You claim to no longer be a danger after your revenge, but how can we be certain you won't try something again for the sake of Gene? You're already aware he's moving on in his stages of care so how can we be sure this heartache won't cause another premeditated plan for him?
I would need to see the footage from the ROT video for her husband. Although I doubt murder could be justified, it still could be important evidence if it's particularly heinous with regard to not being impartial.
Officer Madina, regarding the ostracisation of the convicted, where do you send them, who have you sent and do you keep tabs on them and how they're doing. Is there any good information you can tell us about them? I wanna know exactly what I'm sending these people to.
Officer Madina: What is Officer Termin's record on cases he presided over? Were they average, or did he get statistically higher rates for Ostracizing and Termination?
It could have been personal on his part, supposing Miss Whistle's story is true.
I would like Officer Madina to answer first, followed by Ms. Whistle, and with final comments by Officer Madina.
How can a ROT officer bias the results of a ROT vote, have there been complaints about the system and specifically Officer Termins performance before this incident?
Lovely work as always!
Such great acting in all of these
Question for Officer Madina: During her initial Plea, Abaca refers to Officer Termins as having framed the ROT stages poorly. As the current Officer for this position, Is it of your opinion that he did so in this or any other notable cases, Hypothetically, could he have been called to ROT himself?
Officer Marina: For the ROT system, It is understandable that for some results, It would be difficult/impossible to reverse some judgement results.
However, as the defense has stated, It seems as though that there are some people who have had grievances with how some officers conducted themselves in the system.
Is there any way to appeal decisions if for some reason, the officers have multiple complaints/accusations levied against them for unfair treatment during the trials?
Can the person in question say what they have done is right? If so, would you give up your rights to your child to stay on the arc and pay your time for any crimes you have committed if found guilty?
Officer Madina, could please offer more information about Officer Termins and his past conducts, and, if possible, your honest opinion of the kind of person he was both as a ROT officer and as a person.
Seeing as the murder is "calculated and willful," but Mrs. Whistle describes it closer to a crime of passion: what are the exact details of the murder?
Mrs.Whistles: If you were willing to do anything in order to see Gene grow up, why did you chose to take an action that you knew would result in your conviction?
I got loss in the new I should’ve watch the first one
holy shit wait terminate is morse code
Officer Medina: Why was there no follow up to Mrs.Whistles concerns? Why was there no follow through?
Officer Medina: Do the ROT convict ambassadors possess records of Mrs. Whistle's complaints filed against Officer Termins? Do those records indicate what actions were taken to address her concerns?
To Madina- Whistle claims the officer used unfair conjecture against her husband, slanting the case against him. Could we view transcripts from this ROT case and see if there is validity to her claims?
To Officer Medina, does Mrs. Whistle have a history of violent or uncontrollable behavior? Was she ever overtly aggressive?
To either Mrs. Whistles or Officer Madina: How did Officer Turmins die?
Officer Madina: I'm curious as to the use of the term 'wasteful' in the context of the late Officer Terman's death. Could you perhaps clarify just what, to the station at large, is considered a wasteful death, and by extension life? To my understanding as a retired Officer there wasn't much more Terman could contribute to society, unless there are duties even past R.O.T. Officers are expected to up-hold. Beyond Mrs. Whistle being a new potential threat to fellow citizens of the station, how much damage, both actual and potential, has this caused?
Oh eh, True will be in charge of the station's rationing. Good for him. The pride of the station.
No, I don't have any question. I have many questions. But I don't have any.
Miss Whistle, was everything you said in your Stage 1 statement written on that paper? Did you write that statement yourself, or did someone do it for you? If so, who? How long did you practice it? Please answer truthfully so that we may deliver an accurate verdict.
Mrs. Whistle, are you aware of the common phrase, "An eye for an eye"?
It's so hard to think of what to ask tho. Like did someone write that paper for her to read? is that even relevant? Could she possibly done the murder specifically in order to be ostracized to be with her husband? Probably not since she's pleading pretty hard, tho that could be just so that she isn't terminated. I'm trying to think think think outside the box. Either way this series is so much fun, I'm so happy to see another episode!
Officer Madina, can you explain the parent cycling system on Concretta? I believe this is not only going to be relevant to this case but crucial context for future cases we may judge.
I must ask what Mrs. Whistle is reading. It almost appears to be a script, since she looks at it often. If she truly did this out of anger, could we ask her the details of the murder?
This is certainly interesting. An angry, grieving mother, who will always suffer, no matter the choice. For now, questions must be asked with every perspective in mind.
...Were there any documents on Termins's feelings or thoughts on the ostracizing? If he felt guilty of doing so, that'd provide more valuable information.
This animation style is really great, East Patch. Quite the jump, though. From Angel Hare, a kind, caring bunny from beyond the screen, to R.O.T., a rather cynical cycle of the outcomes of criminals. Impressive.
To Mrs.Whistle: Would you say you were troubled more by the possible fate of your husband, that he might be dead, or more by the fact that the person who's actions, sanctioned or otherwise, likely led to his death?
Just wanted to let you know that I know that you know. I’ve been reading everyone’s comments to see lol
Mrs. Whistles: have you ever considered the pain of the person's family you murdered?
What makes you think you deserve redemption when you yourself took the life of someone else who had a family that loved them just as much as you loved your husband?
Your husband that may have potentially been wronged, but don't know for sure is completely dead.
Mrs. Whistle while I am not a lawyer I can say some few wise words, what you did seemed to be out of vengeance and hate rather than sadness or despair, as they say pain makes you do things you never knew you could do, but let me ask you this question: did you feel remorse when killing said victim? And if you are, don't you feel like you had other options instead of murder?
ROT 1: What will YOU ask Mrs. Whistle?

To officer Medina: has Ms. Whistle ever had any previous anger control problems or has she shown any sign that could frame her as a dangerous person, despite this murder?
To Mrs. Whistle:
And what if Linus ISN’T dead? Yes, he may have been ostracized, but there’s still a chance that he’s alive down there. Would that mean the murder you committed would have technically been for nothing?
To Officer Medina: How many reported incidents of wrongdoing on the station are associated with retributive vigilante justice over previous R, O or T decisions?
Oh boy ok, so happy to see more
To the Officer and Whistle, if Mrs.Whistles is ostracized what happens to the child? Is the system safe and or caring enough to guarantee that they live a comfortable life with another party and or family?
Also happy orbit day! (Don't include this)
I'm not sure that it matters what the situation is. She admitted to a murder as a crime of passion. Release is simply not an option, in my opinion. I think we should focus on deciding which of the 2 other punishments are appropriate. I tend to lean towards ostracize, since it's possible her husband is down there and killing her seems kinda messed up. I've never been a fan of the death penalty, but she also can't go unpunished. Who knows if somebody will do something else that makes her angry and kill again in the future.
Officer Madina: Can you remind us what Mrs. Whistle's husband crime was that left him to ROT in the first place?
Mrs. Whistles: Why and what are you reading from that piece of paper?
To officer Madina: can we get some details related to Officer Termin’s death? Location, murder weapons, what linked Mrs Whistle to the case, etc
Officer Madina, from your point of view as a fellow R.O.T officer, what can you tell us of Officer Termins? More specifically, did he indeed frame the R.O.T stages poorly and/or Is there anything we should be made aware of in regard to Officer Termins that was no stated by Mrs Whistle?
Whistle: Could you tell us how, in your stance, Officer Termins had biased the proceedings for your husband?
To Officer Madina: What do you know about Linus? Is there any information regarding his situation on the mining planet?
Officer Madina: Were any other reports of misconduct, forgery, or corruption made against Officer Terman? Did Officer Terman have any connection to Mrs Whistle's husband or any associate with the family? Was Officer Terman part of the parent cycle system, and if so, could he have been a candidate to raise Gene? Lastly, Mrs. Whistles, why did it take you so long to go through with the murder that you have admitted to of Officer Terman? Thank you for considering my questions.
To both: Was Officer Termins troubled in any way? Did he have friends or family that could agree on any behavior he might have displayed to sway votes in Linus's case?
Officer Madina: Have there been similar complaints filed against Officer Terman that could indicate a pattern of behavior?
Officer Madina, What does a typical rearing of a station child look like? I.E Timeline between cycles, shifting of parentage, education, etc.
Question for everyone: Do you want the people of Concretta to get the full story before making a decision? Did you know effective PR can convey the full picture? Contact Clear Sky Public Relations; 84% ROT Return rate!
Officer Medina: Have there been any similar cases of corruption from officers and ambassadors related to either the convict or deceased?
To Mrs. Whistle, who wrote the paper you were reading from, and what was on it? If possible, could Officer Madina confirm the contents of the paper as well?
Mrs. Whistles: you know why they ignored your complaints?
Because it WASN’T up to him,
We as a community made the decision. Your attack on our officers is an attack on us.
Your husband, with all due respect, knew what he was doing.
As did you. Should gene learn to attack our people should he disagree with a result of our officers, our community?
Miss Whistle and Officer Madina, could you both give accounts of how Officer Termins was murdered? Where and how was he found? Please answer truthfully so that we may deliver an accurate verdict.
To Mrs whistles, please explain in full detail on how you murdered officer termins. Please Do not leave anything unchecked and don’t lie.
Officer Mafina: was there an investigation considering Mrs. Whistle's complaints?
To the applicable staff of The Concretta: Great work on the flashing lights sign, it turned out nicely. Really livens up my janitorial shifts down that hallway. Ahem. This is serious this time. Ah, more serious this time, I mean. It's always serious when called to ROT. Sorry. Moving on...
Oh dear, Mrs Whistle. I believe her duty is what people used to call a "lunch lady", and I respect that. This won't be an easy decision, but I'd rather hear everyone else out first, as well as her and Madina's testimonies. Among what has been brought up already? I am indeed curious about the nature of Mr Whistle's crime, about any complaints filed against the late Officer Trumans, and... if there was some way to confirm Linus still lives, would Abaca have been content to be ostracized with him?
No matter what you slice it, I am afraid her time with Jean will end soon enough. At the age of two, it's highly unlikely he would even remember being raised by Ms Whistle. Even if Abaca was released, what would Jean think of being raised by a vigilante? A murderer? Perhaps, a veritable anarchist?
Mrs. Whistle: If your husband were to hear of what you've done, what do you think he would he say?
Officer Madina, what are the rules for officers conducting ROT? Have there been cases of officers pushing the people towards a certain choice? Have there been consequences if this is true?
Officer Madina, what's going to happened to the child if the mother is no longer here for him?
To Officer Madina: Can you explain what processes exist, if any, to repeal a ROT discussion? Is this what Mrs. Whistles has been attempting to do with her complaints to Officer Termins, and if so, how did his retirement possibly affect this process, as I would assume a new officer would've given the repeal a fresh, better chance (again, if it is possible)?
Dear Officer Madina,
I hope this message finds you well. I wanted to inquire whether there is a process in place to determine the current status of individuals who have been ostracized, specifically to ascertain whether they are still alive or deceased? Additionally, if such a process exists, I would like to understand why this information has not been communicated to us previously?
(you're a real tear jerker team, patch staff)
Whistle,
1, if you were rehabilitated, somehow, what do you see yourself doing? What was your occupation prior to this... incident?
2, I don't support the death penalty but ostracization doesn't guarantee safety, if that is chosen for you, do you think you'd be able to survive, if at all, down there? Would you at least my maybe try to find your husband who was also exiled?
3, why throw away your life like this when you got a kid? What did this dude do, exactly?
while i am leaning towards rehabilitation, i'm going to hold onto my opinion until we're actually counting votes.
Question for Mrs.Whistle: Do you believe Officer Turmen had a motive for framing your husband? Potential greviences, jealousy, etc?
Mrs. Whistles - Taking into account your admission - which is VERY incriminating, mind you - what is your evidence that your husband's case was mishandled?
It is deeply troubling I missed asking my question
To our dear Officer Madena, could you explain further the circumstances of Officer's Turmin's murder? did it feel like it was out of passion or result of a "snap" or was it more calculated, planned?
Officer Madina, do you have any further information regarding former Officer Turmins' actions? What all was he involved in, who were his contacts, did he ever mention Mrs. Whistles' husband to you? Is there any evidence against former Officer Turmins? And if so, can you show them?
What was Officer Terman's track record with convictions? Does he have a history of skewed results?
Officer Madina: If I may ask, I'm not aware of all the tech used in Concreta, is there not a way for people to keep track of those placed on the planet? Such as a vital sign tracking device or anything? With this, people who were ostracized who may have been falsely accused or in serious need of their skills in a dire emergency could be retrieved.
To Officer Madina, could you please elaborate on the parent cycle system you both mentioned? Is it similar to foster care, given how Abaca’s son will transfer families in time?
To Abaca, out of curiosity, was this murder a subconscious attempt to ROT and be sent to the mining planet to verify your husband still lives and possibly reunite? I’m curious to know different levels of the psychological aspects of this case
Miss Whistle, have you ever been in contact with other individuals in the community who also felt as if Officer Temnis misrepresented ROT cases? If you did, were their interactions with similar to yours? If there was no one that felt like Officer Temnis had mishandled their cases, did you talk to other individuals in the community about Linus's case? If so, how were you treated by the community prior to Temnis's murder? Please answer truthfully so that we may deliver an accurate verdict.
A few questions for Officer Madina: How does good behavior work in this system? If a ROT decision is chosen for exile to the planet, is it a permanent sentence? Are there visitation rights? Can family members who are both exiled get to see one another?
Officer Medina: Did Officer Termins do anything during his ROT trial that could be considered as a breach of duty?
Officer Madina, can convicts be barred from interactions with protected individuals (in this case, Gene) upon release?
Mrs. whistles, you admit guilt to “Calculated and Willful” murder, but later say you snapped, how much premeditation was there?
I see Mr. True is gunning for a new position. We'll see what he makes of it. Hopefully he doesn't begin sequestering rations where he believes they best belong.
