                         SOLUTION TO DEADLINE

Taken from an ST SEWER SOFTWARE docs disk. Edited by Parasite.


SOME GENERAL HINTS ABOUT DEADLINE :
[1] ALWAYS KEEP IN MIND THAT YOU ARE NOT LIMITED TO TWO WORD COMMANDS,
LET YOURSELF GO AND BE CREATIVE!
[2] YOU HAVE THE ABILITY TO INTERACT WITH PEOPLE AS WELL AS OBJECTS.
[3] ALWAYS TRY TO GET A FEEL FOR THE VOCABULARY OF AN ADVENTURE BY
TYPING WORDS EXTEMPORANEOUSLY. IN THIS WAY YOU CAN SOMETIMES GET THE
IDEA OF THE VOCABULARY NEEDED.

HOW TO SOLVE DEADLINE

ALL COMMANDS ARE IN "QUOTES" AND ALL DIRECTIONAL MOVES ARE IN [BRACKETS].
FROM THE FRONT PATH OF THE ROBNER'S ESTATE PROCEED [N]. NOW YOU SHOULD BE
AT THE FRONT DOOR OF THE HOUSE. TYPE "OPEN DOOR" AND THEN PROCEED [N]
AGAIN. THIS WILL PLACE YOU WITHIN THE ESTATE. THEN GO [N,N,E,] THEN "CLIMB
STAIRS". THIS WILL PLACE YOU AT THE SECOND LEVEL OF THE ESTATE. THEN GO
[W,W,W,W,N]. THIS WILL PLACE YOU IN THE LIBRARY TO DO YOUR DETECTIVE WORK.
FIRST "LOOK RUG". YOU WILL SEE MUD SPOTS (CRUCIAL FOR THE ARREST).
THEN "TAKE CUP AND PAD AND CALENDAR AND PENCIL". NOW "RUB PENCIL ON
PAPER". AFTER HAVING DONE THIS, "TURN PAGE ON CALENDAR" AND "READ CALENDAR".
AFTER HAVING DONE THIS, "OPEN BALCONY DOOR" AND GO [E]. THIS WILL PLACE YOU
ON THE BALCONY. "LOOK RAILING" (THIS WILL CONFIRM OUR MUD THEORY). HAVING
DONE ALL OF THE ABOVE PROCEDURE, [S,E, E,E,E,D,D,W,S,S]. THIS WILL PLACE YOU
AT THE FRONT DOOR AGAIN. NOW GO [NW, S,S,E,S,E,SE]. THIS WILL BRING YOU TO
THE SHED (MORE DETECTIVE WORK). NOW, "LOOK LADDER" (MORE MUD AGAIN-I THINK
IT IS SAFE TO ASSUME THAT THE MURDERER USED THE LADDER TO ENTER
THROUGH THE BALCONY AND THEN SOMEHOW MURDERED OUR DEAR FRIEND MR.ROBNER.
NOW THIS HAVING BEEN DONE, RETURN TO THE FRONT DOOR. [NW,W,N,W,N,N,SE].
NOW WE HAVE TO TREK ALL THE WAY UPSTAIRS AGAIN!. GO [N,N,E,U,U,N,N].
YOU SHOULD NOW BE IN DUNBAR'S BATHROOM. TYPE "LOOK LOBO"
(INTERESTING, HEH?). NOW GO ALL THE WAY DOWNSTAIRS AGAIN. [S,S,S,D,D,W,
S,S]. YOU WILL BE AT THE FRONT DOOR AGAIN. NOW YOU HAVE TIME TO TAKE A
REST. TYPE "WAIT TILL 11:30".
IT SHOULD NOW BE 11:31. NOW WE HAVE TO HUNT DOWN MR. MCNABB. GO TO THE
ORCHARD [E,NE,N]. (NOTE: DUE TO THE NATURE OF DEADLINE, MCNABB MIGHT NOT
BE THERE. IF HE IS NOT, HUNT HIM DOWN! - IT DOESN'T MATTER WHERE YOU
FIND HIM). ONCE MCNABB HAS BEEN LOCATED SAY "HEY MCNABB"/CR/ "WHAT
IS WRONG". AFTER THIS FOLLOW HIM HOME AND HE WILL THEN POINT OUT TO YOU TWO
HOLES IN HIS ROSE GARDEN. YOU THEN SAY "LOOK HOLES" (MORE MUD THEORY)
AND THEN "DIG GROUND". THEN WITH YOUR NEW FOUND TREASURE TYPE "ANALYZE
FRAGMENT FOR LOBLO". NOW WE HAVE TO CATCH THE WILL READING. GO [N,N,SE,S,
SW,W,S]. YOU WILL BE AT THE FRONT DOOR ONCE AGAIN. NOW GO [N,N,W] AND
WAIT FOR THE WILL TO BE READ. AFTER THAT SAY "HEY GEORGE". THEN TYPE
"SHOW GEORGE THE CALENDAR". HE WILL PANIC AND RUN UPSTAIRS. FOLLOW HIM!!
HE THEN WILL DUCK INTO HIS ROOM AND YOU GO [W,W,N,N]. THIS WILL PLACE YOU
ON THE LIBRARY'S BALCONY. NOW TYPE "WAIT 10 MIN". ONCE GEORGE ENTERS THE
ROOM WAIT FOR ABOUT 2 MIN AND THEN [S], "LOOK BOOKCASE", "PRESS BUTTON",
"GET WILL", "LOOK SAFE", "GET PAPERS", "READ PAPERS" THEN GO TO THE
LIVING ROOM [S,S,E,E,E,E,D,D,E,E] AND SAY "HEY BAXTER", "WHAT ABOUT FOCUS",
"SHOW FOCUS TO BAXTER", "HEY DUNBAR", "SHOW FOCUS PAPERS", "WHAT ABOUT
FOCUS". THEN FOLLOW DUNBAR CLOSELY. ONCE OUTSIDE THE HOUSE SHE WILL DROP
A PIECE OF PAPER. "GET PAPER", "READ PAPER" THEN CONTINUE FOLLOWING HER.
ONCE YOU CATCH UP, ASK HER "HEY DUNBAR", "SHOW PAPER TO DUNBAR".
THEN MAKE TRACKS FOR THE SHED. [E,E, SE]. WAIT FOR BAXTER. ONCE DUNBAR
AND BAXTER ARE PRESENT TYPE "ARREST BAXTER AND DUNBAR".

THE END!!
