About 87 Issues... but we opened 82 issues in the same period.

That's not a negation by any means, the list itself didn't get any smaller but bigger bugs just got replaced with more obscure ones as it went on.

Re: [POLL]Should the Assistant role have reduced Antag statu

I bet at least one or two people say the poll title "Should the Assistant role be ineligible or less eligible for Antag roles?" and saw that the first option started with "No..." and voted that, thinking that was the no option.

Goofball, the code doesn't have to explicitly state assistants for it to inadvertently give preference to them. The actual randomization process is hidden behind that shuffle function.

The problem for me is that you can't do much magic to a person in a mech. It makes no sense for a wizard to give people something that renders him almost completely irrelevant. Also people can jack stuff when its in people's hands, but you can't really "steal" a mech. Guns/Magic add danger...
