Now it's raining more than ever - an event post!
Hello Marina. Remember those occasional showers we've been experiencing throughout this dayweek? Well, they're not stopping. At all. If anything the rain will keep on pouring well into morning of Day 327. The ground will be soft and muddy, puddles puddling all over the prison, trees and awnings dripping with the downpour... and still it won't stop.

Hope you can swim, Marinanites.

Wait, what's happening?

We're having ourselves a flooding of the rapidly increasing kind. Unlike previous floodings this one won't just result in some water damage and the occasional cold — no, this one isn't stopping. Bring out the canoes, unhook the doors from the walls, get your snorkel ready. The water will continue to steadily rise throughout the dayweek of 327, stopping just short of the Dome's ceiling come midnight. Yes, this includes the floating island. Don't get stuck there.

What if my character can't swim?

Find a floating device or, if you want to be morbid, remember that death is no longer permanent and bring on the horrifying experiences.

Opt out?

Since this is a dome-wide event, it's a tricky one to opt out of but if you're unwilling or unable to participate in the event, you can always assume that your character got through it without trouble. There's plenty of things that can be used as a raft. Maybe they found a canoe in the sports section of Bullseye?

How does this end?

Happily. By daypost on the morning of 238, all the water will be gone, everyone will wake up back in their own beds safe, sound and dry. No water damage, although you may detect more humidity in the air than normal. Perhaps the grassy areas are still a little soggy. There's no real harm done, though. Unless you drowned. That would leave some scars as well as a punishment.
