hopefully i will be joining in once i have done this damned report draft :p looking forward to playing again

[Karlito]

So, as a new player, what's the best time to hop on and play with you guys?

I played for the first time last night, and after a few rounds I pretty comfortably set up the singularity by myself. Being an assistant would have been pretty dull, because we never had a Head of Personnel to hand out additional access. Janitor, Chef, Bartender, and Botanist are all pretty safe jobs  with things to do, so it wouldn't be too hard to learn all the basic controls as one of them.

[Anvilfolk]

Yeah, the guides are really good. I'd never set up the singularity before and followed the guide and it worked. Then, of course, the station went to hell. Good fun. Also, if there's noone around that's usually a good time to play around with some weird job without annoying anyone!

[Twiggie]

Karl, stop playing SS13 and send me my SMAC turn!

I used to enjoy playing engineer most of all, i hear the engine has been removed though.
Also, I read that blob gamemode has been taken out of standard rotation :<

[miauw62]

Heh, yeah, I messed with the radio so everything came out as "ARNOLD". I've no idea why I felt like stealing him in the first place.

So THAT is what happened to Arnold. I really have no idea how he became such an important character in that round.

Oh, and LSDnades.

It's really hard to choose my favorite moment, but when I killed Beepsky with a pottasium 'nade was pretty nice.

I'll probably look into one of them then, thanks!

When is the server usually most populated?  I've got class this afternoon, though I think I'll be free again this evening, depending on how calc 2 goes....

[miauw62]

Just check it out. And yeah, Assistant can be pretty dull when you have nothing to do.
The worst part is you can only find grenade casings and ingredients in the chem lab.

I had locked myself into the telecom room and built a control room there, I had every important console on the station recreated - communications, security cameras, crew monitor and everything. I set everyone to arrest on the security console in order to stop the party, but you ruined the plan by killing Beepsky.

I often play Assistant only because I'm not expected to do anything, anyways. It's easy to do gimmicky stuff when you don't have to go to your desk every two minutes.

CE is awesome too. I once made a private space station with air, power, and everything. Even laser turrets.

[Absolute Niro]

Yeah, but if you do it as an assistant nobody will ever wonder where you went. It's stupid how easy it is to hack doors, just find a lonely area and experiment on a door until you find the power wire and just cut that on everything you want to get through.

Just send your minions friengineers to set up the singulo. Then noone will care about you.

[Aklyon]

You can get large grenades out of an autolathe, I think.

We need you to get on. Force restartz. Just take a look.

[Anvilfolk]

Anyone have a decent guide on how to hack a door? I really can't seem to get info on it for some reason :\ The guides don't quite explain how to do it. Just that there are a bajimillion wires.

I think evenings GMT and EST are both good Don't expect 20 players, but we've had really interesting rounds with 7+ players.

[miauw62]

I remember finding a guide on airlocks somewhere. The wires are randomized every round. IIRC, you'll want to pulse wires until the test light flashes and then cut that wire. Unless it's bolted, ofcourse. Oh, and then you MAY need to crowbar it too.
