Re: Potential rework to certain antagonist roles

We used to have a sweet spot at around an hour a round. Lately it feels as if we've shifted towards the longer drawn out rounds that more fit with other servers. Also both the tensioner and the mulligan code features were put in to basically do what you're asking, and both of them worked horribly an...

I would also like to point out the station was more lethal 3+ years ago when we had oldlings and parapenc4 and no defibrillators or other such stuff.
We didn't have retarded space wind back then. It's killing a rather large amount of people who would usually survive with minor injuries.
