Well. My position's currently a necessity. Guilt? Oh, but I suppose you don't concern yourself with miscarriages of justice in your committee.

Getting to business, anyway. Arisato-sensei's trashing the network.

Do you see the problem?

Edited 2013-07-11 22:41 (UTC)

Yes. Being dead immediately ends your work contract, so Arisato-sensei is certainly NOT authorized to use the network.

Also Arisato-sensei is dead.

P.S: my committee does not commit miscarriages of justice. We're very pro-life: all our justice is done by keeping our subjects alive, if suffering for as long as possible.

Ha Ha Ha sociopolitical commentary in my snarky comeback.

Perhaps it's his ghost. Some spirits just don't have anything better to haunt. Oh... well, I suppose you don't believe in the afterlife, Akiyama-kun. Considering your respect for life.

In any case, do you see our second problem?

Yes. The way I see it we have some sort of hacker that's somehow acquired access to the account, and that apparently won't be shaken off so easily.

The computer club can't do anything about it, then?

Of course, it'd be preferable if this didn't reach the teachers just yet. The principal would be most impressed with whomever manages to solve this problem, correct?

Oh. The club's supervisor is at a loss. He's tried resetting the router. I think he double-checked connections and activity too. Terumi-san's done the same. I'd keep an eye on the club, in any case. They might nail the culprit - then you've got a job to do.

One that doesn't involve such a petty competition, ideally.

Unfortunately the "petty competition" is a fact of life: after all, in the dog-eat-dog world of Ryuseki High, nothing would be more stimulating than the promise of getting cred for solving this situation.

As for what you say, it makes no sense. SURELY doing all that would mean the problem should be solved, unless by some reason there's something darker or deeper taking place here. Something beyond a mere computer problem. We certainly can't wait until some chance event brings on an EMP to kill the computer system...

Well. Oubai-san has suggested the possibility some first years may be pulling a prank. Though student council is not pointing fingers, it does present a possibility - especially given the hacker's sense of humor.

As for solving the problem, I do agree that it shouldn't be a competition. However, you're free to approach it that way, of course ~~because you would lose~~.

((Strikes deleted.))

Time will tell.

Is there any way this user can be found, or where I can see some of its tracks on the system?

Currently, I've been tracking activity logs and connection times. The user is possibly hiding behind more than one proxy so it may take some time to go through all the accounts for irregularities such as Arisato-sensei.

Unfortunately, access to those logs are currently limited. Though you wouldn't have access to all of them, you should be able to get permission to see some of them, particularly for your own club. At the very least, if you see any strange networks such as "The Haunted School Belongs to Us" it may serve as a clue. But if you do see anything like this, I would strongly recommend you pass the information on to student council.

Interesting this.
I think that despite our difference in opinion we can agree that this is better kept among the students-- and, as long as possible, from the President of the council.

Not to mention the Treasurer. He'd certainly make a chance of calling away budget from the computer club-- goodness knows he'd like to put his grubby hands on it and hand it to someone who wins his favors.

~~No lie, and I don't think he'd be surprised to read this, but I'm fairly sure~~ there is no one more deserving of dying molten in acid than him.

Edited 2013-07-12 04:48 (UTC)

Oh whoops I struck out the wrong bit.

Whatever, it's not like we're not all thinking it.

I'm sure not everyone thinks that way ~~there are many more things he deserves than acid~~. He does do his job, though with more enthusiasm and glee than most would.

I can't stop our treasurer or Yamato-senpai from finding out themselves, especially if they read this notice, but it isn't a matter I would trouble them with just yet. After all, as you noted, our treasurer may see the irregularities and think the solution to simply move resources and see if that fixes the problem.

In any event, I'm going to go look for that rogue user. Perhaps we can even turn such hacking talent to the benefit of the school... which would surely impress the Principal as well.

Or maybe they could fix my printer. Heavens knows this thing seems to actively hate serving humans.

Well, as I told Oubai-san, I welcome any help. If you do note something, please keep me informed.

Perhaps. Our hacker may program it to regularly send messages asking for hugs.

PERHAPS IF YOU HUGGED IT, IT WOULD BE MORE ACCOMMODATING TO YOUR REQUESTS.

The mysterious phantom user appears mysteriously! Excellent! An opportunity to discuss this matter at hand.

I'm sure you are aware you are using this network illegally, and worse even, using the name of our late Arisato-senpai.

For shame.

If you are a student of Ryuseki High, cease at once and we'll limit your discipline to only a few hand lashes or something of the sort.

I REGRET NOTHING. MWAHAHA. HAHA. HAHA.

THAT PUNISHMENT WOULD BE IMPOSSIBLE.

Now that's just silly. Of course it's possible. I've been doing it to my classmates since first grade and all the way until third grade when they told me it wasn't okay, and probably a crime. First, you get them to take their hand out and put the palm up, then you hit them fast and soft-- if you do it right, it doesn't welt.

You don't have to regret anything right now. You will once I catch you.

I REPEAT, THAT PUNISHMENT WILL BE IMPOSSIBLE.

PLEASE MODIFY THE PARAMETERS OF YOUR PROCESS AND GOALS. THEY WILL ONLY TURN UP AS ERRORS.

Why are you taunting him?

I AM THE VILLAIN OF THIS TALE. IT SEEMED APPROPRIATE. MWAHAHAHA.

IT IS ALSO A VALID SUGGESTION. IT WOULD BE EMBARRASSING FOR AKIYAMA TO ATTEMPT TO SLAP MY HANDS WHEN I AM NOT EQUIPPED.

Announcing your alignment in capitals is rather underwhelming, PC-chan.

Well. I doubt he can access an EMP. What would I do without you?

I WILL READJUST STATEMENT TO SOMETHING MORE DRAMATIC: I AM THE VILLAIN OF THIS TALE. IT SEEMED APPROPRIATE. MWAHAHAHA.

IT IS STATISTICALLY UNLIKELY. IT REMAINS IMPOSSIBLE HE WOULD BE ABLE TO HIT NON-EXISTENT HANDS.

YOU WOULD SIMPLY ACCESS ANOTHER DEVICE. BUT THEY WOULD NOT HAVE MY PERSONALITY OR EFFICIENCY.

I WILL RELISH MY GIMMICK THEN. MWAHAHAHAHAHAHA.

MANY OPTIONS WILL BE NECESSARY. MOST WILL FAIL AND MAKE YOU LOOK SILLIER.
