Re: TRIALMIN REVIEW: ForcefulCJS

Haven't been online for a whole lot of his trialmin process but Forceful's mellowed out considerably and approaches the game from a much better perspective since he started playing again. My only real interaction with him as an admin was a few admin gimmicks, were creative, fun, and didn't derail th...

Re: [Saegrimr] Upcoming Ban 22/07/2015

The ban in question is not for a specific action, it's for a pattern of action. What I posted is relevant to the ban this thread is discussing because it's an example of an action consistent with that pattern. I mostly posted it to response to Kor, who I think's giving Tornadium more benefit of the ...

Re: [Saegrimr] Upcoming Ban 22/07/2015

The one round in which I interacted with this guy, I'd purchased a syndicate encryption key. He was advising security to conduct random searches, and was literally keeping score of the number of traitors he'd caught. He conducted a random search on me, found the plutonium core I'd managed to steal,...

Re: Shadowlings

Best approach is either NO NO NO NO NO NO, or a cool thought for when the gamemode is more established that the shadowling has some tool to prevent. I'm thinking of cult, with its ability to summon cultists and smack them with a tome to clear the holy water out of their system, which would be great ...

Re: [BALANCE] Upgrading/Exchanging energy weapon cells!

I love the idea, but obviously changing cells shouldn't straight-up increase an energy weapon's ammo supply in proportion to the size of the cell. It would also have to be difficult enough to do that you can't swap cells on the fly, so simple "screwdriver the old one out, slap the new one in&qu...

Re: Elvis Dandy

I'd played chemist or medical doctor during this round, and for several rounds before, and he'd been HoP and either let himself into chemistry or demanded to be let into chemistry for several consecutive rounds prior asking for acid. When I asked as chemist why he needed the acid, he quoted self def...

Re: Gang War feedback

Some of this was talked about in OOC, but my thoughts: Currently, a gang boss or lieutenant can buy two pens, which allows their conversion output to be pretty close to a revhead, and even with only one pen, they can still convert pretty fast, so conversion should definitely be slowed down some. But...

Rob was wearing a mask but that really didn't stop you from knowing who he was via reference. I don't know why this is relevant or what you mean by reference, but I had no idea who Rob was. I didn't know for sure who you were even talking about until I checked by taking the unknown's mask off. The ...

Re: Should we switch from a feature freeze to Rework Feature

I haven't been coding much lately, but from a player's perspective, it seems to me that this feature freeze has held back a lot of great things while letting game-breaking bugs through. We seemed to do better before the freezes, which I vaguely suspect is because testing for new commits has gotten l...

Re: stickymayhem Drovid Corv - AI Law Upload Ban

Resets are why I used the freeform core instead of the freeform. You *did* get reset during the round, and my laws stayed, because they were core laws. They would've had to upload a new core module, which they couldn't do from the reset computer, and probably wouldn't. Law 3 only comes into effect o...
