Description:
An unwarned and surprising power outage that toppled many power lines just happened throughout @@NATION@@, heavily affecting almost unreachable towns and villages, and thus causing the nation to devolve into chaos. Although it has been temporarily resolved, people worrying about the future desperately try to get your attention in the hopes that you will choose their idea.
Option 1:
“We have to help these poor towns that are out of the way!” exclaims country-lover @@RANDOMFEMALENAME@@ who spent a total of 9 hours coming down just to see you. “You have to have teams and supplies ready to deploy instantly near every legalized town or village to fully protect them. Otherwise, we may starve to death waiting for help that will never come!”
Effect: People “helping” towns way out into the country are reported to never come back.
Option 2:
Suddenly, an overly excited graduate student who just majored in Information Technology rushes into the room. “You know-how, nowadays, everyone has a phone, right?” he shouts. “Well, I was thinking, what if we just gave everybody an alert on a perfectly fine and not-suspicious app through their phones whenever we think a power outage is going to happen! Then, everybody will be able to prepare and minimize the damage. It’s brilliant!”
Effect: Every day @@DEMONYM@@ citizens prepared and prepared and prepared for a supposed “powerrr owtage”.
Option 3:
“No, you idiot! Not everyone has a phone. And even if we did, I’m not about to download some suspicious third-party app. Whatever made you think that?” questions a 40-year-old mother who told you she prefers to stay anonymous. “Anyways, I think the state should issue a broadcasted warning on every device, whenever there is a chance of a power outage. This means that as long we trust the state instead of some weird smartphone app, it can be displayed to everyone.
Effect: People have had more and more trust in the state sending them broadcasted alerts ever since it was almost accurate once.
Option 4:
“Both of you are off by at least 5 days!” yells harsh and widely-believed authoritarian police chief @@RANDOMMALENAME@@. “Us police need to keep our eye on things! It’s the only way to truly make everything safe. Just let me control and deploy men to every street in @@NATION@@, and they will be horridly strict and pu–oh wait I meant to keep order on the street and keep everyone safe during a power outage! Right!”
Effect: It is interesting there have been way more reports about police cruelty as of late.
