I can understand getting rid of lizards, but why plasmamen and flies too?

Because those are the races lizard audience will switch to.

Plasma men just shit on everyone with the ability to live in plasma. It's like if niggers could only live in carbon monoxide.
Flies are just shit in general, vomiting all over the floor is just annoying as fuck and bothers me deeply when i'm building something and try to take a screenshot and its covered in vomit. (So then i have to go rob the janitor for some soap)

Make them both admin spawnable. Just not roundstart races. (going through a uncalibrated teleporter should still flyman you)

I will concede that having flypeople playable at roundstart is retarded. They're your punishment for failing to wait for the teleporter to calibrate. Plasmamen are deliberately a pain in the ass to play as they're meant to be the game's hardmode. You guys would miss lizard memes if they were gone, don't you fucking lie to yourselves.

More races means more variety in gameplay, ye wee fuck. Plus, Ligger erpers would be considered Scalies, so your poll is using incorrect terminology.

Yeah... I been doing that a lot recently, It just tickles me greatly.
Can't really describe why I find it so funny, but I do. Just know I won't be ahelping you for whatever you do to me. Chef and bartender outright murdered and gibbed me day afore yesterday, and I took it on the chin like I'm supposed to.

I've been thinking that the flyman puking should force you to stop for a second or two to limit the damage and give objectors a chance to slow your roll and get you for being a douche with a backpack full of soda.

but the topic at hand, I do like the speshul races. they are fun, and I wouldn't object to more.
I used to be against the lizards becoming mainstream, as it would lead to more and more speshul snowflakes, but it doesn't really bother me. I enjoy the occasional round as a plasmaman, or fly person. So long as they remain what they are, Not Human. therefore vetoed head roles, and AI doesn't have to give a shit about them if they don't want to.

Basically, Special races are fine, so long as they don't have rights! why? idunno, just cause.

Roundstart races should be less effective than Humans, or if they have upsides - possess one or more downsides that negate that fact.
Lizards and Flys lose Asimov protections
Plasmapeople get roundstart flash protection and a limited use auto fire extinguisher suit, but lose Asimov protections and require plasma to breathe.

Antag and races made midround are fine if they're better than Humans, because antag races need to be threatening and races made midround require effort to be put in for them. Golems are an exception to this since they're only available to dead people and it's not as though it's impossible to get around this.

I don't understand the meme that plasma men are hard mode, it just seems like you just have to always have internals on and not get more than 200 damage.

You have permanent slowdown, A belt or suit slot is always occupied, and if you run out of plasma you die.

Remove roundstart fly people, they're basically only there to shit up the place. If you want to be a fly that badly, just ask the AI to let you into the teleporter.

In addition to what's been said
Burn damage is also doubled, people think it's funny to walk up and pull your hood off, roundstart assistants disarm your tank, and also, you can't be converted to rev easily, meaning there is a whole round type you just die in.

you also can't be cloned without extra effort, meaning it won't happen most the time, and until recently cryo killed you, meaning you gotta go to the sleeper to get healed, so you'll probably go from crit to coma because everyone pushes the morphine button every fucking time.

If you end up with a hardsuit everyone hates you because you don't take damage from being on fire, but you are on fire forever. thus catching everyone on fire.

you cannot eat, or use bruise/ointment on head wounds, because your hood is in the way for both those things, so if the chemist is an asshole you cannot get 100%health without going into a morphine coma from the sleeper (again)

It's too late for that I'm afraid.

we shouldn't remove loggers because if we do not have something to bully we will turn upon one another
