I got to witness this one live, it was genuinely fucking peak. We had over half the crew sitting in front of the damn thing eating rads to watch it delam with popcorn— Even if the rules say one thing, sometimes, the heart should 100% say another.

Other than that, it's hard to conduct an in-game vote which really prompts everyone involved in the round. From IC point getting the entire crew on it should be enough, but aiming to end the round like that would be dickish to people who aren't in the crew like certain antagonists or ghost roles, people whose existence you can't even be sure about. Practically impossible for a player to say everyone was fine with it. The appeal does not seem to give any new information, argument is still that plenty of people enjoyed it but it was resolved based on the existence of a person who did not enjoy it. The risk taken was calculated but maths is hard.
That player's byond username? WetBlanket.
10. Losing is part of the game.
Your character will frequently die, sometimes without even a possibility of avoiding it. Events will often be out of your control. No matter how good or prepared you are, sometimes you just lose.

Fully agree. You got 3 days for causing a massive round-ending event. If you feel justified in it, take this slap on the wrist with grace. And if you don't want to get banned for destroying the entire station as a non-antag, don't do it.dendydoom wrote: ↑Thu Mar 14, 2024 3:58 pm sorry but i personally don't really care for a vote unless it's 100% of the server. roleplay is king and a vote is not IC. i know that's me being a fussy killjoy but to me running a vote is not enough to do something that ends the round on its own.
i would like to see more of the rp surrounding this event. was there build up? IC reason for doing it? did it create a good story?
these are the things i'm looking for when i'm thumbing for the rule 0 or secret rule card.
of course, like others have said, eating the ban for this kind of thing after doing it anyway because you felt so strongly about it earns you the respect of players and admins alike.
(this didn't happen)
if you truly believe this, then pretty much every admin event would be null at this point. 100% of the server will never agree to an admin's event. i don't think you seriously believe that a highlander event shouldn't happen because 10% of the server said no. (maybe you think it shouldn't happen because highlander events are dumb but i digress- you get my point)
you can find out for yourself in the appeal:
While I wouldn't want to see it every shift, a rare fun event that is from the crew (as in not admin started) is not a bad thing, and a fun and memorable shift for everyone involved. I spent time making this a memorable event- with a viewing chamber and the chef giving out ice cream and food to people observing the singularity. If I had to count, there were 6+ people around watching the supermatter and actively enjoying the shift.
im inclined to agree but im pretty pissed that 93.3% of the server voted "yeah i was cool with that", but one person voting "Nope" is enough to nullify rule 0. seems to me that everyone enjoyed the event, except for the one Space Station 13 guaranteed malder in dchat. we just recently told someone that their antag round killed by an admin event to take a hike. why can't we do the same for the one person that said no? in-fact, to quote what you said:
i understand that you're talking in relation to admin events, but i think player-driven events such as these are just as powerful- if not MORE powerful because they're driven ICly- as admin-driven events.dendydoom wrote: ↑we have no desire to change overarching policy on events from a single or handful of bad experiences.
it is sad when players don't have fun, but events are as much a part of the game as anything else. admins are encouraged to run events on both large and small scales to bring the world to life and create personalized and unique experiences for players.
they will not all be award winning masterpieces, but adding lots of red tape around events just scares admins off from experimenting with what is possible with the game, or even from doing events at all. as long as the event does not break admin conduct, then the admin is advised to use their best discretion when deciding to run events.
That one guy's round matters just as much as any one elses. He doesn't nullify rule 0 though, because Bmon would still be choosing to exercise rule 0 even if there were zero votes, which I don't think an Admin should ever be required to do.iwishforducks wrote: ↑Thu Mar 14, 2024 5:03 pm -im inclined to agree but im pretty pissed that 93.3% of the server voted "yeah i was cool with that", but one person voting "Nope" is enough to nullify rule 0-
sorry to say, but players aren't admins. admins aren't always admins, either. if someone was de-adminned and did this while participating as a player, then i would ban them if i saw it.

I know it didn't happen. This is to illustrate the failrp.

part of the difference here is that admins are accountable to both the 10% and the 90%, and the terms of that accountability are the rules.iwishforducks wrote: if you truly believe this, then pretty much every admin event would be null at this point. 100% of the server will never agree to an admin's event. i don't think you seriously believe that a highlander event shouldn't happen because 10% of the server said no.

People can get very pushy.

Luckily most of the time they are an antag that wants chaos and is doing anything they can to get it. Which includes arguing at whoever to try and change their mind.
Sadly, that almost never works.
