Day 2, Morning

NEWS BULLETIN:

It is with deep regret that the Neowin Times must announce the untimely murder of local townsperson Quick Shot. His body was found by the doctor in the middle of Front Street in the early hours of this morning.

Initial reports claim there was no struggle and Quick Shot appears to simply have been 'in the way' and unlucky to have ended up the victim of this tragic hit-and-run incident.

The sheriff has spoken to locals who claim that they saw the Mafia's orange wagon cruising down the street late last night. "It was almost certainly the Mafia", the sheriff said.

The doctor tried to resuscitate him, but unfortunately it was too late and Quick Shot was pronounced dead at the scene. The doctor claims he died instantly.

May Quick Shot rest in peace and continue to live on forever in our archives.

I can neither confirm nor deny my involvement in the Neowin Mafia, nor can I respond to any questions about my where abouts at 4:00 AM Monday Morning due to legal advisement of my team of lawyers.

Now if you'll excuse me I have a meeting to attend at a little italian restraunt down the street.

Will ALL players (yes that includes Mafia members) PM me their vote as to who they will be voting to be eliminated off as a Mafia suspect.

It is in everybody's best interests to discuss their votes here, as well as recent events and suspicions, or else the Mafia may be able win over the votes and murder yet another player tonight.

About the day/night cycles, will everybody be able to play their parts around the following times:

thank god im like 5 hours behind so i will be awake and alive during most of this

As for Quick Shot:

I seen him early before and he was acting a bit tipsy. I told him to let off the booze and that he should head home. He told me that he was not drunk and wants to visit his friend. After that, i seen him running down the middle of the street. A speedy car was unable to avoid Quick Shot. I seen the impact on the corner of my eye, from what i seen it was a hard impact and he was killed on impact

Edited by Shof

i was visiting new your city at the time and looking out my hotel room window, saw shof on the streetcorner watching the terrible 'accidnt' that befell quick shot. i also saw someone else come out from a dark alley and walk to the body of quickshot and shoot him seven or eight times in the head at close range. then they dropped a rose onto the body and walked away. it was not a pleasant scene :blink:

^How could you? How do you sleep at night? :cry:

How will you feel when you have kittys walking around our mafia mansion with gps devices set up by other mafia gangs? What will do you, let the kittys live and allow the other mafia gangs find out where we are or just kill them and disable the gps device?

    • Dragon's Dogma 2: Dark Arisen expansion to bring snowy region, new updates also coming by Pulasthi Ariyasinghe Capcom had a surprise waiting for Dragon's Dogma fans today in the Nintendo Direct presentation. The company revealed an expansion for the second installment with a name that should be familiar to series veterans. Coming later this year, Dragon's Dogma 2: Dark Arisen is promising a massive new region to explore, new monsters, fresh skills to learn, and more. The studio says players will be heading to the Northern region of the world, named Norgan, to find new secrets about an undying "Fallen Dragon." There will be forgotten relics that the protagonist can find to unlock fresh weapons and skills the expansion is introducing. Players will also be able to find mysterious equipment from a previous Arisen as a part of the expansion, all part of 12 Lost Rites Dungeon Challenges they must complete to gain access. In Neowin's own review, I found Dragon's Dogma 2 to be an impressive RPG when it launched back in 2024, giving the title an 8.5/10 for its class variants, companion system, and immersive exploration. "Once a prosperous region of the kingdom of Vermund, it was abandoned many years ago for reasons unknown," says Capcom about the new region. "Long has it been since any soul traveled its paths. Blanketed in heavy snow, these frigid lands are home to savage hordes and creatures of unbelievable power. Those who are capable of vanquishing such fearsome foes, or those who possess a keen eye for exploration, will find themselves rewarded with powerful relics." Dragon’s Dogma 2: Dark Arisen expansion launches on October 9, 2026, with a $29.99 price tag. Ahead of the expansion release, Capcom is also planning to release two free updates to the base game. The first will land tomorrow, June 10, bringing more accessible fast travel with an Eternal Ferrystone and other quality-of-life adjustments. The second update will land sometime in August, aiming to improve frame rates, add more save slots, and bring even more community-requested adjustments. This expanded Dark Arisen edition is also launching on the Nintendo Switch 2 on the same day the content comes to PC, Xbox Series X|S, and PlayStation 5.
    • Classic themes are just the colors on the bar like the olden days, if you use the image themes, it does fancy transparent backgrounds and it makes the elements of the app look like they are transparent bubbles. This sample image shows what it looks like.  
    • Good point, unfortunately. NextDNS has far more filters and workarounds than uBlock, and it's easy to implement.
    • Windows 10 KB5094127 Patch Tuesday improves File Explorer search and more by Taras Buria The June 2026 Patch Tuesday updates are here, bringing mandatory patches to users with PCs enrolled in the Extended Security Update program for Windows 10. Microsoft is rolling out KB5094127, with build numbers 19045.7417 and 19044.7417. Changelog includes the following: [File Explorer] This update improves File Explorer search, including support for Chinese text, and UTF 8–encoded files without a byte order mark (BOM). Text now displays more clearly and consistently across search results, Content view, and tooltips. [Secure Boot] This update enables dynamic status reporting for Secure Boot states in Windows Security App. This update adds a new policy setting, LimitSecureBootRequiredServiceData, under Computer Configuration > Administrative Templates > Windows Components > Secure Boot. When this setting is enabled, Windows limits the Secure Boot service data it sends by suppressing the event normally sent to Microsoft. This policy is also included in the Windows Restricted Traffic Limited Functionality Baseline package. For information about the policy, see Manage connections from Windows 10 and Windows 11 operating system components to Microsoft services. With this update, Windows quality updates include additional high confidence device targeting data, increasing coverage of devices eligible to automatically receive new Secure Boot certificates. Devices receive the new certificates only after demonstrating sufficient successful update signals, maintaining a controlled and phased rollout. As for known bugs, Microsoft has the following to say: A workaround is available in the official documentation. Today's updates are available for PCs enrolled in the Extended Security Updates program only. If your PC is eligible, you can download the update from Settings > Windows Update or from the Microsoft Update Catalog here.
    • Then the solution is to not let children have easy access to smart phones or internet until they are older, not mass surveillance. Only this would require parents to do actual parenting, most likely, as with any good solution to the problem.
