Re: Thread for Lavaland Rules Update
I'm really not a fan of policy being set purely through code and just making flavor text better doesn't fix the existing issues with the policy as written.

I would've asked you not to talk about the current round in OOC, and I can't say I wouldn't have deleted the dispenser.
Talking about the round in deadchat is fine, talking about it in OOC is not.

Re: Thread for Lavaland Rules Update
I like the idea of simplifying it but until the role texts are vetted and updated I think this is a good solution. Also, while it's more complicated than I wanted it to be, I don't think this is a bad replacement for the current "Lavaland Policy" section of the rules.

Thread for Lavaland Rules Update
