After having read about this game, having glanced in these SS13 threads and the Griefing thread a few times, and telling myself "boy I'd love to try this", I finally manned up and gave it a shot.

My first round I was a grey shirt, and tried to get money from the ATM so I could get smokes. I didn't know my pin so I just went exploring instead. I got run over by a guy on some device and a priest healed me. Afterwards I went to the bar, threw some glasses around and left. After some more exploring I went back into the bar and the bartender was waiting for me and beaned me with a glass, temporarily knocking me out. It was all in good fun though so I got hammered and spent the rest of the round being a dumbass asking for help, where am I, and not seeing where I was going. Being blindingly drunk isn't very fun it turns out.

The next round I decided to be a janitor, and after needlessly mopping some floors to make people trip I put up a sign and wandered around. I went to the bar and the tender was dead, so I mopped up his bloody mess and took his revolver, figuring from what I'd read having some weapon would be handy for self-defense. After a while some guy with a horsehead stole my mop bucket and I chased him but he got away.

I went to medbay next, and saw a monkey and immediately searched for a way to kill it, because monkeys aren't people so I thought I could get away with it. I whip out my revolver but either it was really all along just a party trick or I was misusing it, but it turns out whatever I was doing with it was really playing Russian roulette. Not knowing how I might use it to shoot people who weren't me, but picking up after a few turns of the chamber that I was attempting to shoot myself, I decided to wait for somebody to come along and then I shot myself in the head in front of them.

Somehow I didn't blow my brains completely out so I woke up after a while, at which point I attempted to use my mop, handheld bucket, then a fire extinguisher to beat the monkey. Security intervened and after subduing me and taking away my fire extinguisher I got some medical type person to chuck me in the cryochamber to heal me, at which point I decided to be a good boy but the round was almost over.

This game is great

As sec if you play along with this poo poo then the crew or the captain kills you for colluding with traitors and if you arrest them for being obvious traitors then people whine becuase you're doing your job.

That;s what I was about to say. I forgot how many there were.

Just had an awesome round where I managed to get a full access ID because the HoP left his ID in the ID machine. I proceeded to teleport to the bridge, and recall the shuttle. Then me and a co-conspirator decided to wall off the bridge from the outside(with the captains permission of course, The AI trapped him in his quarters and I rescued him). We were in the process of stating our demands to the hostage station when suddenly a lion wearing a space helmet appeared in the bridge and killed my buddy and the captain. I managed to grab the captains laser gun and kill the lion, but by the time I broke out of the bridge and called the shuttle, there was a zombie outbreak on the station. Pretty fun round.

Precisely.


- De-limb yourself with a chainsaw. (Not really sure how feasible this is in the engine.) Alternatively, shove it into your ribcage and gib violently.

- Empty hands but with insulated gloves on. Electrocute yourself.

- Wirecutters, any of the more sensitive bits.

- Screwdriver. Good old to-the-eye trick, but without help!

- Inhale the fire extinguisher. Gibs, Y/N? Or maybe a fatal block of ice.

Oh, my bad! I haven't made a habit of killing myself in interesting ways. Playing the game wrong, I think.

Instead, how about a dual-item suicide? Lighter and a can of welding fuel.

10 bux!


Okay, time for some stories:

Whoops

After a long break I started playing again a week ago and drew traitor relatively quickly. Since I was a botanist, I promptly abandoned my post and found a hiding place to spawn my delicious syndicate items. I got a red chainsaw and a detomatix cartridge (This cartridge plugs into your PDA and allows you to blow up other people's PDA's).

However, I've never used one of those before, so I'm in the PDA menu and see two files "Bomb," and "Missile," I choose Bomb because that's what I want to do. It then says it's overloading the PDA. I panic and freeze, bad idea! The PDA blows up taking out a portion of the maintenance corridor and leaving me laying on the ground with the red chainsaw sitting on top of me. The detective sees me through the partially destroyed walls and comes in, picks up the chainsaw and starts beating my rear end. It took him a while since the chainsaw was turned off.

Buffer Race 2000!

This one takes place on donut station a while back when there was an interesting piece of equipment the janitor used to have called the floor buffer. What this did was allowed the janitor to drive around the station waxing all the floors behind him and make life hell for everyone else.

I spawned as an electrician one round and made a bee-line for the janitor's closet. I got there before he got out so I shoved my way past him and scanned the floor buffer. Then ran back to my lab to work quietly. A few minutes later I had made a fleet of floor buffers in the electronics lab. I drive them out to the main hall way and wait for chaos to commence.

Sure enough, within moments the machines are gone and nearly every floor is slippery with much agonizing over the radio. It got to the point where security was told to brig anyone riding a floor buffer. Needless to say that's how I spent the rest of the round since I took one of the machines myself.

Any jumpsuit: You strangle yourself with it

Port-a-brig/medbay remote: You set the pod to appear on you, telefragging yourself into gibs

Hand Tele/Cargo tele: You point it into your ear and teleport a chunk of your brain out of your head (maybe making a piece of mystery meat appear at the tele destination it was set to)

Any seed: You swallow it and it takes over your body, making you become whatever crop it was

Gnome Chompski: You spear his hat through your chest

Oxygen tank: You put the nozzle in your mouth and turn it on full blast, popping into gibs

Plunger: You stick it on your face and suffocate
