Week 152 OOC Writeup

[skinners_box]

Hey, guys! Congratulations, you made it through Week One Hundred Fifty-One.  Fly like an eagle... or a brain-dead parakeet.

First order of business, it’s Sunday, and time for reset. It’s another boring week in Facility 1.

Week 152 will be sleep deprivation. No sleeping for an entire week for the poor little rats. It's not because of chemicals or anything like that. Val will be keeping them up. Electrical shocks, sprinklers turning on over head, temperature swings, even random objects falling from the ceiling. Be creative, so long as they don't get to fall asleep.

Generally, sleep deprivation may result in:[6][7]

• aching muscles[8]
• confusion, memory lapses or loss[9][10]
• depression[9]
• hallucinations[9]
• hand tremors[11]
• headaches
• malaise
• sensitivity to cold
• bloodshot eyes
• periorbital puffiness, commonly known as "bags under eyes" or eye bags
• increased blood pressure[12][13]
• increased stress hormone levels[13]
• increased risk of diabetes[13]
• increased risk of fibromyalgia[14]
• irritability[6]
• nystagmus[disambiguation needed
  ] (rapid involuntary rhythmic eye movement)[15]
• obesity[13]
• temper tantrums in children[6]
• yawning[6]
• symptoms similar to:
  • Attention-deficit hyperactivity disorder(ADHD)[6]
  • Psychosis[16]
