Rules:
- The messages can go as far back as the beginning of the 7 day period (the moment you found out about your assassin is after you)
- You can only send the messages if you have cell signal (maybe don’t hide in the woods, you assassin might be there, and you don’t get a do-over 🙃)
- Your phone is immune to damage and malware (although spyware and keyloggers can still be on there, but they can’t affect the system, just on “read only” mode). Auto-updates are now disabled by default
- If assassin got your phone, they could send false messages to trick your past self. (Don’t lose your phone!)
- At the end of 7 days, the Assassin will just drop dead due to time travel limitations, time travelers cannot survive longer than 7 days in the past (yes, the assassin is a time traveler 😉)
[P.S: El Psy Congroo]
Do I have any information at all about the assassin? Sending back the only info I know, “there is an assassin”, won’t help much, will it?
The problem is that I can’t wait for the assassin to make a move in order to learn about them. It’d be a lot easier if I was trying to prevent someone else’s death, but I can’t send a message after my own death, can I?
I see you’re going for a Steins;Gate reference but this is a significantly harder scenario.
Quickly program your phone to record a video and send a MMS to yourself if it detects you death.
You set up your phone at a vantage point pointed at you, and just go on live tv, make a scene, wait for the assassin to come. Then they come and kill you, and your phone captures their image, and sends it to your past self. Now you got a face to research.
What’s that? The assassin wore a mask? NOOOOO! 🙃➰️💀
But I don’t even know when and where the assassin is coming, do I?
