Speaking of ghosts, there's a way to solve the issue of doctors being frustrated because dead players leave instead of waiting to be revived: pull a ghost when the body is revived, just like cult resurrection

Can you help another inmate break out? I suppose you don't, because that would get a regular non-antag banned and from what I understand this role isn't antag. But at the same time it's counter-intuitive because it's pretty obvious that inmates would help each other. what are you even saying? You c...

Everyone else will be paddled.

So you'd punish players who say ASAP, SSD etc. as well?

Grazyn

It's annoying to have people push you around while you're reviving someone but you can just use one of the surgery rooms or have medbay sec deal with trespassers. From what I've seen, the new reviving is faster than old cloning with the exception maybe of really old corpses (who are likely soulless ...

Grazyn

It's not like MD players have a lot of things to do. They're either fixing the living, which takes precedence over the dead anyway, or reviving the dead. The alternative is doing nothing. Actually, since reviving is now an active process instead of press-and-wait, it's more likely that bored MDs wi...

Grazyn

I don't mean to be a doomer, but something that has been bugging me is the worry that the massive revival time is going to lead to more players either taking a ghost role or else just quiting out once they die. In turn, this might lead to a "meta" of sorts where doctors would end up less ...

Grazyn

Server rules say don't do anything that would cause you to be fired IRL, building a rage cage in public without authorization would definitely be a valid reason for termination.

Grazyn

Have cloning someone bring their ghost into a dangerous and scary world of purgatory. Smoke, chasms, spirit monsters. Only if you can manage to get out do you get cloned. Something like the bubblegum shuttle arena where they have to fight mobs, player-controlled and not, and other dead players. I l...

Grazyn

Can't you just build a surgery table under a shower and revive them like normal?

Grazyn

Isn't it a bit early to make the call about expanding MRP? Dynamic stayed on Terry for what, a year? before the administration had enough elements to discuss its expansion to other servers. How long has manuel been up? There's still an artificial scarcity effect that draws people to manuel, opening ...

Grazyn

Interesting that you should bring that up, and I hope you don't mind other opinions, because conflict being entirely "physical" in the sense you mention is enabled only by the fact that a portion of the playerbase mentally checks out of the rounds without it (whether that's for cultural o...

Lizard names are functionally nicknames because lorewise they are assigned by the family/village/community/whatever based on stuff the lizard is known for. Yeah players abuse this to make silly names, but Kills-the-death is actually a good RP name.

Grazyn

About Ops, I think CM is proof that fast-paced action can work even in a high RP environment. Imagine organizing defenses against war ops in a rational, organized way instead of going "HOP GIVE EVERYONE ALL ACCESS, AI BOLT OPEN THE ARMORY"

Grazyn

what happens if your Dr. Esq. MD doesn't roll the job at roundstart or is demoted? to be a pedant the honorific wouldn't go away if you lost your job, you still have the degree You're right, it's still jarring because the name isn't just what is written on the ID, people identify you with that name...

Grazyn

I've always found names like Dr. Jack "Sawbones" McGee a bit annoying even for an RP server and just an inch away from custom character descriptions in the examine text. Prefixes and suffixes are already banned and for a good reason, what happens if your Dr. Esq. MD doesn't roll the job at...

Grazyn

Features that were "removed" by being simply disabled but with their code left intact found their way back into the game eventually (gang, clockult) because there's always some coder who says "I revamped it and fixed all the issues that caused its removal, you're gonna love it this ti...

Grazyn

I think the bodygrowing machine idea is better than just removing cloning. Also can we leave the experimental cloner in? Kinda fits the experimental theme of it. It doesn't clone the original owner anyways Yeah the experimental cloner has nothing to do with cloning, why was it removed? If anything,...

Grazyn

According to oranges only IRV polls can be filtered so you can't just make a binary poll "do you want cloning removed yes/no". It would have to be something like "do you think that cloning should be removed/reworked/left unchanged/all revival should be removed etc. rank these statemen...

Grazyn

Yeah this PR breaks everything the rules have been built on for the past decade I think a quick fix would be the headmins porting the roleplaying rules where they generally expect everyone to be a nicer person so they dont die brutally. Its literally just that simple. The PR only removes cloning, n...

Well they'll have an extra £350 million a week to fund the NHS now that they don't have to pay the EU membership fee.

Grazyn

Honestly, rather than entertain the idea of removing Secret Extended, we should add in Fake Extended as well, if we don't already have it.(I don't recall seeing it) Maybe it'd teach people to stop treating extended as a fucking tider's free for all, and maybe bring higher RP standards as SOP starts...

Tories had a crushing victory so the UK is leaving January 31st. Good riddance! Don't let the door hit you in the arse on your way out

Grazyn

>after Christmas

why

Grazyn

Secret extended was added because most players would log off or suicide at the extended announcement. For some reason, tricking people into believing they're not playing a mode they dislike was considered a better solution than just removing such mode.

Grazyn

I don't care about dynamic as long as euros have a place to play

Not that I play anymore

Grazyn

Yeah if a non-human officer is stupid enough to harm a human in front of a borg, he deserves the logical outcome.

Grazyn

There are definitely instances where the player behind the silicon can reasonably assume the order is against server rules (es. Captain ordering to genocide lizards at roundstart, or an order coming from someone who is obviously a new player over petty reasons) and I think people should be encourage...

Grazyn

Except songs being played aren't IC. They're OOC, and people will post song requests into OOC/Ahelps and talk about the song in OOC without any problems. I've never seen a note/warning for someone talking about an Admin Song Midi being played for people to listen too. Tlal, how is that relevent to ...

Grazyn

Protip: if you're non-human and you get caught in the act of attacking a human by a borg, don't fight it but focus on finishing the human: once he's dead, human harm is no longer occurring and the silicon won't be compelled to fight you anymore. No one ever does this with antagonists though. Then a...

Grazyn

The fact that dynamic *can* happen means the call “there’s a ling so no cult” is never correct. It's a 13% chance of being wrong with a 0% chance if centcom report is checked the two shift types reports are different (dynamic's one is actually good) The shift report is kinda stupid anyway. It made ...

Money is an RP tool and it's fine as it is

I'd just add dynamic to secret on all servers and put Terry on regular rotation as well. Having it in secret spices things up while still keeping traditional single antag-type modes. Personally I disagree, since you can occasionally on high pop get team lings/traitors and nuke ops, but the Tots/lin...

Grazyn

How does antag priority works for traitors? Can you join the cult to get closer to your assassination target who is a cultist or are you forced to obey the "no team-killing" rule? Can you kill him but you have to help the cult? Or can you ignore your cultist allegiance altogether?

skoglol wrote:When did you play grazyn? Changes were made to fix stacking bugs, as well as reduce the frequency of round enders a month or so ago.

Yeah it was a couple months ago. Good to know it was fixed, it made rounds very predictable (cult or rev, and if nothing happens in the first 20 minutes it's nukes)

Grazyn

I played on Terry because EU and thought dynamic was fun at first, then I realized every round is either cult or rev and it's awful for long-term projects

Grazyn

Every item in game can be a weapon and we can't reasonably expect logs to track everything. That's why "He was coming right for me and I felt threatened" will never be a solid argument for escalating to murder.

Grazyn

It doesn't happen because everyone uses the popup to talk

Grazyn

From what I understand coders actually like Oranges as head honcho so maybe don't try to fix what isn't broken? That can easily be because of self selection. People who don't like whomever is headcoder are less likely to spend significant amount of time working on a codebase. Also who wants to risk...

Grazyn

To add to what Ari said, most players aren't able to make informed decisions on coding skill, code quality and oversight. Letting the people who actually do decide who is head honcho is the best way to ensure the codebase is in good hands. Managing the codebase requires a fair amount of technical s...

The obvious approach would be to interpret it like a regular law: you must accomplish your AI's objectives, you don't have an AI, so the law doesn't mean anything and should be ignored until you have an AI. However, it's important to stress that the "accomplish your objectives at all costs"...

As long as the project is open source, "community has no influence" is never going to be a real argument because you can just join the project and influence it yourself.

Grazyn

so it's not a tator tell, do it on regular rounds too I'm pretty sure half the playerbase subscribes to the "act like a shitter every round so it's not an antag tell" mindset. The ol' Pax tactic. Add in aggressively ahelping whenever sec players start to metagrudge you, so that they are a...
