Yep.

[SOLDIER First]

Does anyone else get a stupid amount of lag when opening or using any sort of interface window (like the PDA, vending machines, character setup, etc)? So far it's only happened on one server, but nobody else there seems to have the same issue.

[Cheedows]

I wouldn't be surprised, my computer nearly killed itself when I used the Centcomm master computer to view cameras. Also iirc, handheld cameras can lag the server to it crashing sometimes, it's weird.

I find Discord extremely unsatisfactory when posting ideas and am too scared to shit up the github. So: I propose we bring back antag captains and etcetera, with an exception maybe for IAA/other NT liaisons.

"Captain antags are cancer?" All our antags aren't ever what we want them to be. The Captain part is irrelevant. Access? When has access ever stopped a traitor? Tools abound. If anything, Captains just have a bit more freedom to carry out gimmicks. Which is a good thing. Gimmicks may fall flat as they often do, but, again, our antags feel less than stellar often.

Making a certain group of jobs unable to be antagged just turns traitor mode into a team game between people you can absolutely trust and people you can't, which is frankly the opposite of a 'watch your back and don't trust anyone' gamemode.

Plus we don't even really have loyalty implants anymore and I doubt we'll ever get them back.

FOUR YEAR HYPE. Hype brought you you by Cheedows on the discord.

[Cheedows]

Event at 8 pm EST tonight for the anniversary in a couple days, git hype.

[birdy51]

Oh hey. Maybe I shall try to hop on for that.

Asher Harris whispers, "Why do Command people always ignore me?" [Said after trying to interrupt HoS Kadel and Commander Deacon arguing in the public hallways.]
James Deacon yells, "We need to send a message that these actions WILL NOT BE TOLERATED!"
Kert Jonson whispers, "You know, I'm not sure."
Kert Jonson whispers, "It geels easy to push you around sometimes to be honest."
Asher Harris whispers, "Really?"
Kert Jonson whispers, "Maybe that's why?"

30 seconds later, a Durand killed me.

[birdy51]

I lopped off Deacon's head. This was triumph.

[Glloyd]

I lopped off Deacon's head. This was triumph.

Proud of you Birdy.

I was sure that Glloyd/Deacon was going to shoot me like he did the assistant, played by himself. Sudden escalation to a firefight would've been fun to watch if only to see how allegiances would fall among the two Blueshields, security officer, and HoP in the area.

A straight-up round-long Glloydrev event would be nice. I think the Lactera plot and traitors cheapened the experience a little bit that time around.

[Glloyd]

Yeah, the traitors were accidental, because I wasn't going to do the event, so I started it as tator, but then a ton of people joined, so I went ahead with it anyways and tried to incorporate the tators.

[AH]

The Discord was discussing maybe a new gimmicky wizard spell? Powerful 3x3 or so forcefield that lasts a while, but as a tradeoff the wizard obviously can't attack anyone outside it, or maybe even escape it himself (Jaunt and Blink would have to somehow be circumvented by this) until the forcefield goes down naturally/by wizard's choice.

Could be good for hostage situations or just locking yourself in and taunting all the losers outside that want to beat you up.

[Doubloon-Seven]

Just as a request, I'd like to wonder if anyone has some... interesting stories from their time playing. To give my own two cents, have a summary of, in my opinion, my most frustrating round played. Of course, delivered in >greentext style.

Spoiler: Lowpop Woes (click to show/hide)

>Join as engie
>Go to set up power
>Power already on, nice tesla setup
>Total pop is braindead RD, HoP/S (Couldn't tell, since he had the HoP hat, but was armed to the teeth.), chemist, and CMO
>T-Comms has a script that makes everyone say [DATA EXPUNGED] at the end of sentences
>Go to T-Comms to fix, which on this station, is on the Minisat
>HoWhatever has the same idea
>Whines about me not saying AI Core, even though the AI core is elsewhere
>Fix issue
>HoW shows up, I tell him the intricacies of T-Comms... and he busts down the window into the machine room
>I try to disarm
>Shoots me with riot shotgun, uses martial arts, too
>I run, and weld the door behind me
>Go to medbay
>Chemist is making pills labeled 'Super Strength'
>Don't trust
>By now the HoW is shouting and nonstop '...'ing
>Even though there was but a single welded door keeping him from the exit
>By the way, T-Comms is filled with tools, including welders
>Then decides to take the uncalibrated teleporter out
>Becomes flyperson
>Says nothing, because by now he's screwed up telecoms enough to down the system
>I took one of the pills to grind in the kitchen grinder, to see it's composition
>25u Mindbreaker Toxin
>Turn on the wall radio, explain this to everyone
>Is ignored
>HoW shows up, a flyperson
>Shoots me with shotgun, breaks a leg with karate
>Drags me to bridge teleporter
>Says my punishment is to be a flyperson as well
>Someone calls the shuttle, no idea who
>HoW chucks me through teleporter
>Become flyperson
>In crit from rads
>Whisper, in my final breaths, how the he should be arresting the chemist, rather than me
>Revives me with defib, goes past chemist, still making toxin, with a friendly wave
>Shuttle arrives
>Ask CMO to let me out
>Points to the door opening button
>State that I'm cuffed
>He says, 'Uncuff yourself, nerd'
>Uncuffing takes a full minute
>45 seconds to shuttle leaving
>At 15 seconds left, he opens the door
>Shuttle leaves, CMO then proceeds to chuck me out the airlock
>Die, round ends
>It was a wizard round, never showed, and the braindead RD was the only traitor.
