Not at all. MISSION ACCOMPLISHED!

But seriously, it would only work if the pens automagically clicked back after some time, or you'd just end up with traitors clicking them as soon as they order them then going back to normal.

Needs actual use (preferably a lot) of real pens to happen so people have excuses to have them clicked in that case.

There is a lot, especially on Baycode - the things you use ACTUAL PENS for - writing, labeling beakers and the like... The only way to include this would be to introduce and enforce mandatory paperwork, and nobody wants it.

nobody wants it.

This is a good point, it would be pretty terrible.

I would like more paperwork. Or at least for people to be more accepting when asked to do it.

My problem: we're too small, with not enough crew, to make that any sort of fun.

"Have this signed by the RD."

"There is no RD."

"Then, euh, get the MD to do it."

*MD refuses to even consider it, or is dead or something*

"Just get the Captain's stamp."

*Captain is AFK.*

All this takes time and isn't very fun.

TRUE, but then again, IRL paperwork has NEVER been fun. I kind of like the idea of tedious paperwork, if only for immersion/HoP's having more shit to do.

Let me put it that way:

I have to deal with paperwork IRL.

I play SS13 to have fun not dealing with paperwork IRL.

Therefore, there's no way in hell I'm going to do paperwork while playing SS13.

That's not paperwork. It's working, and on paper, but it's not paperwork. Paperwork is uncreative, just hammering pre-existing data into the forms as required.

Better yet, have pens dry out if left clicked for particularly long periods of time.
