Indeed.
Hm. As if our less than welcome visitors, our invasive trespassers are not already more than sadly aware of the dismal fact that our medical supplies have been feloniously removed, larcenously acquired, purloined, looted, robbed, stolen, filched, embezzled, carried away by a clutch of thieving.....aspiring assassins.......
Of course our supply of speed pills is not......what it might have been.
you forgot jacked, bogarted, gaffled, borrowed, lifted, boosted, shiested, and five finger discounted.
Some of these terms count as American argot, which, despite my loyalty to my Don, is a language I have yet to fully master.
However, the use of the verb 'borrow', in this context, is, at best, a euphemism, or, at worst, a word - such use of which - is not actually meant. A lie, therefore, an utterly mendacious utterance.
Forsooth, riddle me this: Do you actually intend to return the purloined pharmaceuticals?

I probably should have used quotes to better emphasize the slang nature of the intended use. It's quite common to "borrow" things with no intent to give them back.
That being said... you certainly will not be getting back any of the supplies we have "borrowed". Thank you for your generosity.
Our generosity and hospitality know no bounds when we play host to invited guests. Those who arrive, - unannounced, uninvited and unexpected - must surely know that the welcome thus extended to them may take a somewhat different form.
Good guys' turn. (I know; finally. jav6454's spring break was apparently... smashing. )
You have 4 turns to do as you see fit this round (due to the E drugs).

Allright folks, it's either head back the way we came into the east/west hallway or go out the top left and into the north/south hallway. Thoughts?
To the 1st question: not telling.
To the second, if you split the teams will continue to have 4 turns each as long as the drug lasts.
If I understand things correctly, the enforcer will be the toughest enemy we face. I am guessing the Don placed him at a point close to himself, so we don't have easy access to killing the Don. Either that or at a point where we most certainly will have to encounter him. i.e. a bottleneck.
Others have said they think the Don is on the second floor, so perhaps we split up to cover the first floor and find some goodies while we still have the extra turns?
We could always meet back up then and head upstairs.

talk about action-packed adventure!
i can't believe i missed mscriv's room-clearing fart!
and all that standing around in silence, too.
hope everyone had a good holiday.
if my intel is correct, d18 and d19 both lead to the same room, so entering into L appears to be the most productive move in terms of moving forward.
It's also the most predictable so if they want to ambush us now, that one might be the place (maybe is time for moyank to flash us some of her magic?).
i think together we are still too strong for what they throw at us, so my impulse would be to go (without splitting, IMO).
i am also curious to see if indeed there are stairs there.

Q and K look like rooms of interest to me.
remember this is still speculative, especially the doors locations.
but so far it was fairly accurate.
EDIT (hours later): mscriv, take us somewhere! anywhere! let's go.

I know, things are dragging, but I'd like to hear from more people than just you and Koodauw if possible. Rodimus, Queen, Moyank, do you three have any input?

I am a keen student of cartography and draughtsmanship myself, and so I feel I must congratulate you on an exquisitely drawn map.
Sorry. Jet-lagged to hell.
D18/D19 seem like a good bet to me, I think we should make for where we think the stairs are. I'm also intrigued by M.
