Saying I started and participated in the purge is mostly Wrong. People started saying in radio "PURGE!!!" So I just ran into the captains office and made a announcement with the purge message from the movie. I wouldn't say I started it seeing as people were saying purge time in radio far ...

Someone on Bagil once told me being robust was speedrunning every source of gamer gear, so this doesn't really surprise me

I really, really like /tg/, from the passionate admin staff and our robust, transparent appeal process over our maintainers and contributors that pour countless hours of work into the codebase, to our players that come up with new fun and wacky things that I never even thought of in my dreams. I li...

I want this solely so I can use xenobio to turn myself into a pickle.

Generally I'd like to see major round ending threats like cult, revolution and nuke ops to be extremely unlikely to spawn before the hour mark or so, to give the round a proper escalation of threats as time goes on and hopefully bring the round to a natural conclusion instead of having to call the ...

Also, it's nice to have a place (wizards) where we can dump ideas for cool shit that would be ludicrously overpowered if actually given to a normal antag. And that would be entirely fine, if those ludicrously overpowered stuff weren't ending up in dynamic. While I don't think wizard is a good mode,...

Everything I listed is still in dynamic as far as I am aware, aside from summon events. The issue with staff of change is how quickly any semblance of normalcy is gone forever when every other crewmember is either moving at meth speeds with the ability to spam tackle stuns, or now has syndicate com...

You realise this is a game where the antagonists have fun at the expense of other players and everyone gets a chance to be antagonist some of the time? What antagonist doesn't exist to make your round worse, other than the ones that can convert? Pretty much all the non wizard ones? Antagonists add ...

i dont get what you are trying to say, is wiz too impactfull for the round? everything except the 2 staffs and summon ghosts are already not included in dynamic gamemode, staff of change is funny and gives players that dont get many chances a way to play as one of the rare mobs and borgs, if sec do...

I don't agree that wizard is incompatible with dynamic, just a select few spells are. If anything, the best place for wizard is dynamic - the wizard gamemode itself is garbage and should be done away with. On dynamic, the wizard is no longer the central driving force of the round. Other antagonist ...

There is a big issue with this - Wizard is entirely incompatible with any other modes. Wizard is really only capable of one thing, and that is going on murder sprees as a power fantasy for a single person. Is this something that could be changed? Is wizard itself the problem? Or are the tools a wiz...

Damn you Niko, I was going to have a much more indepth policy post made for it when I woke up. Full dynamic is becoming more and more popular, and one day it may replace secret entirely and become the standard for all servers. There is a big issue with this - Wizard is entirely incompatible with any...

Pretty much the entire wizard kit fucks over any semblance of normal. Even if a wizard dies they can leave behind gamebreaking stuff like the ghost metacomms orb, or a staff that makes half the crew suddenly syndicate cyborgs or xenos At what point do we just acknowledge how wizard is a shitty mode ...

I still don’t think wizard is compatible with any other mode. Turns out summon ghosts sort of puts an end to a significant amount of things you can do as an antagonist.

I can't seem to find anywhere to remind me, but has he had any appeals as of late? I swear Nox was involved in an appeal recently and I had something to point out about it but I can't seem to find it anymore. Nope, haven't had any appeals yet, or any involvement in any recent appeals. Pumpkin and M...

The first Deedubya appeal is a classic, but the sequel is obviously just a soullless cash grab

Very good admin, extremely knowledgeable about how to solve issues involving the code, I forgot they even were a trialmin

Promote immediately

You have to admire the sheer dedication and teamwork shown by the crew in their collective efforts to break into the supermatter to kill themselves

how is it that for a game heavily leaning on the concept of modifying yourself, you have more freedom to alter your appearance after being "created" in real life than you do in cyberpunk 2077

letting people get a haircut would have been the bare minimum, how do they not even have that

I ahelped this and was told by (i think) justicegoat that syndies are allowed to blow up the bomb if miners so much as SNEEZE on the station. It was me. Honestly this is less of a policy issue and more of an awfully designed ruin issue. Its a giant loot pinata that has equipment that can fuck over ...

I keep screaming but no god is listening

Helps out a lot with figuring out coding stuff when adminning, but is also influential in encouraging me to unleash emagged cleanbots on those two people laying down dangerously close to each other. I am pretty sure that second part is positive feedback.

I fucking miss MECs though. SPARKs weren't the same. You have MECs, humans who have sacrificed any hope of normalcy to fuck up the xenos And then you have a boring robot whose death means nothing I loved the moment in XCOM where I realized how alien my soldiers must be, space wizards with guns, almo...

Its hard to argue with this when I have seen people who are legally allowed to vote unironically use the word "poggers"

Do macros kinda suck? Generally, yes, but making a rule against them would be grandstanding at best because a rule that can't be enforced has no authority. I think it is pretty easy to enforce a rule where if you are using some form of macro or something to get an obvious in game advantage, ie, tur...

memetext > greentext just winning isn't an achievement. anyone can secretly do their objectives and then hide in a pod in the last 20 minutes of a round the true victories are the memorable stories we create, even if we may die and fail entirely you won't remember that time you managed to complete y...

Macros are not a bug or an exploit. The game is programmed to take inputs, and other programs that can facilitate macros to provide said inputs are common and freely available to anyone that wants to use them. If they were deliberately obscured, or if BYOND had some deliberate mechanism to block ma...

if the guy who fucks off into space about every other round is complaining about the nerfs then they are working as intended

4. Ordering silicons to harm or terminate themselves or each other without cause is a violation of Server Rule 1. The occurrence of such an attempt should be adminhelped and then disregarded. At the bare minimum this should be removed. Because of the rule, even people who have a reason to order the...

It seems like the players who would like to do more RP where they discriminate against non-humans may have difficulty applying a gimmick that has the right subtlety and pressure to be engaging without going over a line. Yeah the issue is most people are as subtle as a brick and just start screaming...

Security isn't supposed to kill people, heretics by design have to kill people to ascend. And there you have it untrue, you can full pacifism ascend using only influences. grab already dead bodies and use them for the ascension ritual, bam. There aren't enough influences to do this I don't think. S...

There are rags and I think they may be able to do something sort of like this but I never really attempted so I could be wrong

The murderbone exemption for hijack is required because of how poorly defined murderbone is to the point where some people just consider murder in general to be murderbone

I think the issue is how the definition of murderbone has been expanded to the point where

murder = murderbone

Yeah pirates is one of the antags that made me realize the disparity in enforcement of rule 5 and 6. Pirates can't attack people, but the crew can pretty much murder a pirate on sight for robbing the entire station.

we should send a copy of it into space

This is fucking hilarious. One of the most Karen tier things I have ever seen

Objectives work well as a sort of guide. Optional if you want to do it or not. The issue is mainly on MRP where the rules on what you can do as an antagonist are based on your objectives. If you have to download a tech disk and steal a tank of plasma as a scientist it feels like you aren't allowed t...

Because of the anti murderbone rules, rounds that aren't dynamic tend to be stale. Dynamic makes the round more interesting by adding more sources of conflict into what would otherwise be a boring round where nothing happens for 2 hours And I am sorry to tell you this Goof, but I don't think people ...

Skip the space part. Skip the programming part. If science wants their materials, it puts it on their shoulders: Keep it simple like cleanbots or floorbots. Put some beacons on lavaland they can dig towards/explore around. You send the bot to lavaland and it simply seeks out rocks. Breaks rocks. On...

I feel as if that would end in someone pioneering a program, and a rare responsible engineer copy pasting it at the start of the round, while most engineers don’t bother. Doesn’t seem much better than clicking rocks. Ideally it would probably vary from round to round so you can't just copy paste so...
