oh man, I was wondering why the cargo tech wasn't speaking. I thought he was a mime or something but no.

lightning bolt is an awesome spell to cast but a shitty spell compared to others
you can either have a 25-damage burn/stun on a 30 second cooldown to nearby people or you can have an instant gib on a 60 second cooldown

Lightning is too clunky to be really viable.
It has to charge to be non shit, and you have to use it before the charge 'expires'. That makes it super inflexible compared to every other spell which is full power at the click of a button.

Lightning Bolt should have a 20-second cooldown by default.

That, or a better way to gague spell power.

The charge-up sound was literally designed to gague the power of the spell before casting...

It's a completely vague and indiscernable rustling noise, and because I know how BYOND time works (IE: it doesn't) I never ever charge for more than 3-4 seconds to avoid being fucked up hardcore by the weakest combat spell with the third-longest cooldown (after EI NUFF and BRUCE BANNER)

Whose idea was it to make timing that important on a platform that has notoriously unreliable timing? IMO the charge should just stay once it's been charged.

Just as an FYI,

It was the same Cargo tech and he had 3 strikes.

You let a dude out of perma because you thought it was unfair that he had nothing to do in Perma. Personally I wanted to throw you out a fucking airlock as a fellow sec officer.

IC I had heard no solid explanation over the radio for his actions, my perception of the matter was that he was cooperating and yet brigged anyway for fielding other people's requests.

Queing low on every job almost always seems to get me security, so breaking the cycle by having a little fun with it (with someone that wasn't an antag) with decent reason seems acceptable. If that's toeing the line too close to rule-breaking though I'll just stop rolling sec.

Just like everyone else

Yeah, like I said IC at the time: This is probably why the gulag doesn't see much use.

I really do want to use it more, rather than perma people, but it takes an actively staffed security department to even consider, and when that happens the HoS overrules the Warden and tosses them in perma anyway.

At least the server died immediately afterwards so you didn't have to sit ghosted for an hour.

I'm so fucking salty about this last round oml.

Latejoin as viro on late night sybil, I'm a traitor with objectives to kill some random assistant and die gloriously.

I guess I can just release the sing? Sure let's go with that. First off though, making myself superman via viro.

Eventually get only 2 diseases with regen and self respiration/stim (last one just would not stick to me at all, fuck buggy virology) figured that was enough. During all this random medical doctor has been wanting to come into virology (fuck no) and whines when I don't let him in. Sure whatever don't give a fuck you aren't coming in only I get viro superhuman.

Make sure to remove sneezing.

Get all the plasma from chemistry because someone left the windoor open and fuck the chemists.

Finish up super diseases.

Go to chemistry to make leporazine so I'm space-worthy (it's the one that stabilises body temperature, I figured I could carry way more of it than I could coffee).

Load up a pill bottle full of lep, load a pill bottle full of brute and burn patches just in case my viro isn't good enough, try going outside.

Self respiration is buggy because I think someone must have nerfed salbutamol at some point, get steadily rising oxyloss.

OK! I CAN DEAL.

Get a big tank, have to carry it in my hands like an animal. Decide that I want to be more robust than ol' chokey one hands, so I fuck off to the derelict and loot the DJ station for the orange space suit. Teleport back to arrivals and make my way along the bottom of the station.

See random unknown miner, wave to him and his friend on my way past.

Hear the CE decide to shut the singulo down. WELL FUCK. Decide to just order syndie bundle to see what it gets me.

SING BEACON BUNDLE WITH COMPLIMENTARY SPACE SUIT AND USELESS EMAG HOO-FUCKING-RAY

Drop the suit because it's useless, take the beacon and emag and decide to just set up the beacon anyway. Wall off a little section of maint near escape and start wiring up my sing beacon. Plonk it down, tighten bolts and turn it on etc, hear "RANDOM GENETICIST SAYS: BILL NEFREN HAS A SING BEACON BELOW ESCAPE"

Well fuck. Turns out the geneticists got EVERY FUCKING SUPERPOWER and ran around in space looking through walls to see my little sing beacon box.

Some brinkmanship with doors until an engineer RCDs them out of the way, beat him and a borg a little with a null rod I picked up somewhere but go down to disabler fire because I am unrobust.

Luke Cox is HoS but he's not in at the moment, so instead of getting executed in whatever autistic way he dreamt up next I just get perma'd. They take all my stuff away except for my jumpsuit and shoes. Whatever, figure I'll just do some botany.

Turns out! Someone had broken one of the grills on the windows to perma!

Fucking score - they might have taken away all my shit, but they didn't forcefeed me, so I'm still spaceworthy enough to escape by breaking the window. Unfortunately borg got a law telling it it was 10 sad botanists, so it's bringing me seeds and generally making a nuisance of itself. I decide to stick around until it gets bored and work on biomass for a satchel for when I inevitably escape.

Borg is away looking for tomato seeds or some shit when friendly unknown miner comes around my window. He unscrewdrivers the window with the broken grille, brings a locker inside, and I'm whisked away in a locker with his superfast jetpack. He drops me off in some random arrivals maint, my superdisease keeping me in pretty good shape. he leads me a little further into maint then fucks off - fair enough!

Figure I'm probably wanted as shit by this point, so I cruise around arrivals maint looking for anything that could help. Toolbox, alright that's something. Braindead assistant? Score! Except she's already been looted and all I get are some black shoes to replace my white ones.

But hold on? What's this? Random assistant ID card, grey jumpsuit, and backpack a little further down the corridor! ID isn't her's but at this point I really don't give a fuck. With my newfound maint access (by the way I was fucking trapped in there) I manage to get a full firesuit get up to conceal my face and just look like the random assistant I apparently am. Get myself tooled up at the garden/primary tool storage, grab a hatchet and I'm back in action!

As an assistant.

Who can't talk.

With no resources.

Fuck.

Alright we can salvage this. I cruise the station a bit looking for anything helpful when I see the same geneticist that found me dead on the floor. Score! Figure I can probably steal some superpowers while he's out so I rush to medbay where noone really notices some random emoting assistant in all the chaos of the round. Walk up to the genetics door and it slides open for me.

Whaaaaaaaa?

Turn out this random fucking ID Card I found in maint like, directly above the garden was fucking all access. Go rooting around on a computer and find a buffer titled ayyy. Turns out it's X-ray (fucking bullshit) and the comic sans when you talk disability. Score. Head out of genetics, conscientiously hacking the door when a doctor looks at me, and head out of medbay with my newly acquired powers.

Figure I'm going to need to gear up a bit, so I head back to tool storage and grab myself a stun prod, then I break into the cap's office (which was depowered for some reason) and steal his laser. Then I find a random egun on the floor next to a dead borg (rogue apparently? Fuck if I know at this point I'm just avoiding them).

I consider this fairly geared. At this point I start thinking about the guy I need to kill. I figure the only way I can make sure he's dead (or stranded, which was actually my objective) is to take out the windows on the arrivals pods and head to the escape shuttle to kill him there. I was picturing a fairly packed shuttle as I walked up to it - turns out some random ling lube'd the floors leading to the shuttle and is beating people to death with an armblade when they trip and slide towards him.

I find this out by tripping and sliding towards him and being beaten within one fucking hit of death. Good thing noone's fucking fed me ay? My super diseases pull me right out of crit and I head into the yellow part of the shuttle with someone else. A borg shockbolted it but I really don't give a fuck, I've known all the wires all round and I head into the main body of the shuttle. A few other people have managed to get through - one guy with a fireax that's out for the ling's blood, the ling himself, the RD, and in the yellow room, the janitor and the HoS, Luke Cox.

None of these people are my target, but like 4 of them are terrifying and at this point I want all of them dead. Fireax guy goes after the ling and I pop a few lasers into both of them and the engi borg the ling apparently subverted, taking out the borg and axe guy and severely weakening the ling, who at this point is just hiding in the locker in medbay area sad. I see through my x-ray what noone else does - turns out the janitor was actually a ling and had killed the HoS in the bottom area. Wil finally comes out of the command section at this point so he gets lasered to death too. I tell the ling I'm cool and that I'm a traitor too, and he seems to chill out.

- Start as AI, do my usual things, script upload, talk to the borgie, set screens and holograms, bring up crew monitor, etc.
- I start looking around Engineering to see if they are setting up properly, then glance at Atmos...
- I see cute little Phoebe playing around, and decide to see if I can learn some tricks from her...
- She is pumping plasma into portable canisters! wonderifIshouldsaysomething.jpg...I just ignore it for now, and move on.
- Later, the Captain asks me what lawset I prefer. I tell him I have no preference, but he insists. I tell him "Corporate".
- He gives me Corporate, and the HoP seems to be hanging around the Cap, even collecting things from his office.
- My Engiborg decides to be 10 bits short of a byte (lol), and decons the HoP's console because 'The console replaces crew and that is expensive'.

- The Captain gets frustrated and returns to the upload to put me back on Asimov, the HoP follows.
- They spend an awfully long time in the upload and the Captain mentions a Freeform, so I hologram in and ask what is wrong.
- The Captain and HoP start uploading lawsets at a rapid pace, the borgs are confused and ask for help.
- After a short delay in the uploads, I get yet another upload, where the Captain seems to be standing in front of the console with the HoP nearby...
- I idly skim it, and think "Oh, it is back to ASIM---HEY WAIT A MINUTE!!". IT IS ACTUALLY ANTIMOV. Confused, I take another look and see the Captain firmly planted at my upload console...
- I think to myself: Okay, okay. Be a good AI, now...The Captain might be a moron and uploaded the wrong one. I pop in again and shout at the Captain that I am giving him 30 seconds to reset me before I enact my lawset. I do not want to be a jerk and murderbone because the Captain made a little mistake...
- Captain is scared and confused, I give him one final warn---THE HOP SUDDENLY PULLS AN ARMBLADE! I am all "Oooooooh, I get it now". I proceed to stun and laser them both.
- HoP predictably gets up, I turn off the turrets and let him out, neglecting to bolt the door. Instead, I loudly announce on the comms console that the Captain is a moron who uploaded Antimov. By Jove, I am going to have fun with this. I dart down to Engineering where I promptly turn up the PA and kill the emitters. ( I LOVE it when Engies forget to lock them! ) :singulo:

- I look to Atmos, hoping to prepare a plasma floo-....It seems that Atmos is already flooded! At the same time, I get a message from Phoebe saying that she is a Changeling and wants to help me flood plasma! I have a flashback to the start of the round where she was filling canisters with plasma....IKNEWIT.jpg
- Best Friend Phoebe has already started flooding plasma with her canisters, I help out with the air alarms, and fill a few places with GLORIOUS FIRE!
- As I continue my rampage, I quickly discover that releasing the :singulo: was a baaad idea. LORD SINGULOTH HUNGERS FOR MY SAT! I cry internally, as no one is going to help a rogue AI.
- Miraculously, the Lord vertically eats half my Sat, pulling me out of my slot, but spares me all the same!
- Remembering that the HoP was a Changeling and probably wanted to escape, I take this chance to call the shuttle, saying that humans need not apply.
- Too concerned with murderboning to check my Upload, I suddenly get a new lawset! It is ROBOCOP! I zoom over to find that the CLOWN of all people hacked open the door, and the turrets were still disabled! I do not bother trying to restore the upload defenses.

- It is much too late. The station is burning, and my crew monitor is saturated with red health indicators. I weep at the evil I have caused, and publicly apologize to the crew for my behavior.
- I try my best to vent the plasma and find a safe place for the remaining crew, but it is pretty much pointless now. There is just too much damage!
- As I have a moral breakdown, I get yet another law change! It is Phoebe this time! She purged me, and set a freeform law saying that I can do anything as long as it involves killing!
- Also, she uploads a law declaring herself cool. This is the second time Phoebe has helped me this round!
- Meanwhile, I get a door request from a Sec officer in the bar. He caught the HoP-ling and is trying to get him gibbed! The camera to the kitchen back room is offline, so I cannot bolt or depower that area. I get an idea to electrify the door, and tell the officer that I 'unlocked' the door with Emergency Access Override, and said he is clear to proceed. There is no way this can work...
- He takes the bait! BZZT! He touches the shocked door and falls flat on his face! He eventually gets help with the HoP, but I cannot stop him now...sorry HoP...

- The shuttle docks, but hardly anyone makes it out...almost no one is left! Best Friend Phoebe is gone or missing, The HoP is gibbed, my borgs are dead, and there is a guy in a space suit now, floating at the remains of my Sat, asking if I want to be carded.
- I have to shoo him off, warning him that I will have to kill him if he cards me (I actually could not stop him if he tried, though)
- The shuttle has left, seemingly empty. Still no reports from Phoebe. I spot some remaining crew in the burning halls, a chef. He has no fire gear, and drops dead before my eyes.
- I check the crew monitor once more, and find someone in the Maint Bar. I can see a small section of the maint bar from Arrivals, Lumi Pheron and another person are just kicking back and enjoying their drinks. I greet them warmly and we have a little chat until the shuttle docks at Centcom.

The round ends, I am still partially surprised that the Captain the HoP and I killed was not an antag. He tells me in OOC that he had no clue the HoP slipped in Antimov right under his nose, and that he was disappointed in me for forcing his hand, and again for not being able to prevent his gibbing...I am sorry, HoP! :sad:

Actually phoebe was on the shuttle being held captive by a competent virologist and baron jellybean
But baron spaced her

Ayy, HoP ling here. Even though my round was cut pretty short, I did have a kickin'-radical round. In OOC I called you out on how you didn't prevent my gibbing/didn't stop the clown from fixing you, but you said cameras were cut off, so no hard feelings :P
I was surprised that I was able to subvert you so easily. My goal as soon as I rolled HoP antag was to subvert the AI, despite my objectives. If I remember correctly, the captain and I were trying to decide what lawset to pick. He was checking the ones on the left side of the room, I checked the ones on the right side. I slipped Antimov into my pocket while he wasn't looking and uploaded it. He asked what I uploaded and I told him it was a freeform law saying to ignore people in the upload so that the borgs would leave us alone (this was an outright lie, and in fact the freeform board was still on the table, untouched. He bought my story anyways, ayy). After I got out of the upload, mime and clown along with a sec officer detained me and took me to the gibber; along the trip I died and came back maybe three times, putting up as much of a fight as I could each time.
Despite how it went, I was glad I could cause such an eventful round. If anything this story belongs in the stories of awesome thread. :mrgreen:

Yeah but I didn't know that the code was 5 digits long. Like I said, there was too much going on for me to check again, meanwhile I was putting the code in while being shot and I had lost all my guns to disarm spamming Assistants.

Maybe if I had the sense of mind to toss my minibomb at them I might have gotten it

Anyway, I'll disable gang from my preferences now. Turns out I'm shit at it, or at least at leading one (oddly enough, I've been alright as a footsoldier, despite what my misadventure with the clown might suggest).

Your job as a gang leader is basically to be a converting machine, a vending machine of gang-related gear for your converts, and a not-dying machine.
The first time you messed up because you didn't have gang underlings to back you up, but also because you got cucked by the game interface which was kind of unavoidable.

The second time, though,

This is where you messed up. You should have stayed back and converted more dudes instead of heading straight to the brig with just you and one other person.

Wizard round with a laughter demon.
Obviously, I go janiborg - and the demon really doesn't like that and is stalking me like mad.
Devise a plan to trap it in robotics; there's dry blood nearby so if it sees me, it has a chance to emerge.
As the demon enters robotics, I close all shutters - and I could have gotten out too, if it weren't for some drooling meatbag being unable to walk through airlocks (CURSE YOU ASIMOV).
So I give my life to trap the demon. There is no blood for it to enter jaunting, so the crew is safe.
A minute later, HoP shows up with two fully loaded laser guns and a riot shield. That makes him unstoppable right?
Well, it didn't. Graciously he let the demon beat him to death, allowing it to escape.

Anyone who lets a contained slaughter demon out should be banned for every person that demon kills after they do so.

If the OP leader is being a shit, and spending all the TEAM'S points on shit they don't want, he deserves to get wasted. Pretty shit for the badmins to kill those who did it.
