Re: EMP Wire Pulsing is unfun

EMP wire pulsing is fun. It's funny for someone to EMP and get a door shocked and accidently die by touching the door. It's fun to have the AI get in minor arguments with the crew because someone EMP'd something. EMP wire pulsing on cyborgs is unfun. It's not fun to get instantly gg'd by a 1/6 chanc...

Re: EMP Wire Pulsing is unfun

I believe the issue being discussed is one EMP locking them ad infinitum due to it hitting the lockdown wire, not EMPs working on cyborgs.
Without it, cyborgs will be as before the EMP random wire pulsing was added, and just as vulnerable to EMPs without an instant 1/6 chance of a game over.

Re: Should there be different expectations of admins and/or players on Terry?

ending the round because it's gone on "too long" is not great. throw things for the crew to tackle, but make it reasonable. If they want to keep taking you on, let them and keep it reasonable. Having events going on so it's not just 15 idle powergamers twiddling their thumbs with 2 mechs e...

Re: Replace random events with Automated Game Master/Storyteller

And yes, I am aware that the last time we heard of "Automated Gamemaster" it was an April Fool's joke where we coded something to mash admin events every 5 minutes. This would obviously not be that system, or anything close to it, so do not panic.
