April Fools Day 2017
I know it seems early, but April Fools Day is creeping up and coding features, even meme ones, takes time.
Last year we went pretty hard on the April Fools Day content and it ended up being too disruptive due to one or two overwhelming joke mechanics. People got mad, I didn't blame them. That said I still feel like there's value in doing something for April Fools.
This poll is personal curiosity, it's not anything "official" or "binding" I'm just curious to where people's heads are at on this.
For the record I'd personally call what happened in 2016 as "very disruptive". What happened in the previous years that I remember (flipping the map, forcing random identities on everyone) I'd call "mildly disruptive" at best.

Re: April Fools Day 2017
I liked the idea of adding flavor text for people, maybe even having some kind of basic script that cycles through a series of red flag words to generate awful cringy mary-sue flavortext that people would start with, even if they grammatically do not make much sense

Re-skin PK borgs as security cyborgs. Give PK borgs fake stunbatons that make *Buzz* sounds when used on people and gag handcuffs.
OPs spawn with clown masks and clown shoes in their bag.
Abductors say "Ayy lmao" instead of "..." when communicating telepathically.
Clown bikehorns are golden variants
Assistants can spawn with departmental access and armbands as part of a NT initiative to get them in the work place (don't worry it's just a prank).
Security Officers, and anyone else, have their swear words replaced with non-swear versions when wearing security masks (Shit into sugar, hell into heck etc.).

Re: April Fools Day 2017
Last year's April fools was just legitimately not fun to play during, just like it was the year before that. Please for the love of God can we take it easy this year and do things more subtlely and not just slam dunk the game in a trash can for a full day for something you giggle at for five minutes?

Re: April Fools Day 2017
It really was mostly Automated Game Master that pushed 2016 from "playable meme zone" to "every round lasts 20 minutes because this feature literally shitposts admin button presses". The rounds where I or someone else were around to disable it were a LOT better.Shaps wrote:Last year's April fools was just legitimately not fun to play during, just like it was the year before that.

The ERP one was pretty entertaining, mainly because it introduced tactical crotch grabbing where you could grab someone's crotch to stun them even if they'd just stunned you. It was like a sexual version of parasting

In any case there are other ways of doing this. I mean hell, if push comes to shove we could even just test merge all the memes at the proper time without committing anything properly ever.

As is tradition for me, I'll be adding some minor features to go with the holiday. Like usual, I'll try to stay mostly non intrusive, but there's bound to be some over the top stuff. Gag secborgs are definitely happening.

Re: April Fools Day 2017
Please hear me out instead of just tl;dring and posting a one-sentence response that just proves you only care about your own opinion.
Before we get in a flame war, I'd like to point to out that, with the event framework, only minor things can make it in. We can add new files for exclusively April Fool's, but that would cause bloat. I will always support an April Fool's branch because it lets more fun, crazy things get in than if we had to use the framework.
Instead of vehemently shutting down any attempt at otherwise and threatening people who don't agree, oranges, I think that the best solution here is just to closely moderate the content that comes up for April Fool's. The Game Master was very obviously disruptive. Glancing at the code at all could have told you that. Because people didn't, though, it got merged, and ruined the entire event. If you let your favorite cat loose in a pen of sleeping mice, chances are that it's going to kill one. Instead of breaking the cat's neck because it didn't follow our (unstated) expectations, better to teach it just not to attack the mice - in this case, just to moderate what gets merged.

Steal Goon's farts and butts for April Fools. Make it so if you fart too much in quick succession your ass flies off and if you try to fart again after your ass flies off you spray gibs behind you and die.
Be interesting to see how many people fart themselves to death in the HoP's line.
Also farting while holding a lit lighter lets you light your farts on fire igniting anyone one tile directly behind you.
Robotics should also be able to make butt bots

It really was mostly Automated Game Master that pushed 2016 from "playable meme zone" to "every round lasts 20 minutes because this feature literally shitposts admin button presses". The rounds where I or someone else were around to disable it were a LOT better.

Re: April Fools Day 2017
The difference was that it wasn't memey or funny, it completely destroyed rounds. It summoned mechs three times in ten minutes at one point.
I'm an ex-coder for /tg/. I made the original versions of clockcult, shadowlings, revenants, His Grace, and other stuff.
I don't play, code, or participate in the community, but I occasionally post dumb stuff in the hut.

Re: April Fools Day 2017
New Ghost Role - The Banana Peel
Start with Potency 1 or 100, with an amount of health. You can move around and slip people.
That is literally the only thing you can do.
Oh, and you have to click on the peel itself if you want to do damage to it, otherwise the laser will go over the banana peel.

I actually kinda liked the Automated Game Master
It would appear that I'm a high RP weeb who hates roleplay and anime.

Re: April Fools Day 2017
Here's a fun, ez idea
Just make it so ghosts can possess any mob short of megafauna, if this idea is alone the game might actually be playable normally

I don't remember it being able to repeat events like that. It was also programmed to spawn singularities, I'd imagine that's far more destructive.Xhuis wrote:The difference was that it wasn't memey or funny, it completely destroyed rounds. It summoned mechs three times in ten minutes at one point.

Re: April Fools Day 2017
As the day draws closer, I'd like to resurrect this to remind you that two or three maintainers remain completely adamant in putting a tight hold on any April Fool's features that are added. My questions as to how it will work in the end (testmerges? immediate reverts?) and complaints have been ignored or been met with either unjustifiable opinions or personal insults.
