dogstile posted:I'm starting to find that people aren't after you straight away as long as you do your shady poo poo right in the open. Walking around with a saber? That's fine, so long as you aren't in the tunnels and explain that you "got it off a traitor". I get real tired of seeing guys walking around with things like bowling shirts and c-sabers and even power sinks right in the open and no one paying them any mind, even when they start using said bowling gear and c-sabers and power sinks.

Dauntasa posted:The HoS and Detective both have thermal goggles and if they do a couple of quick sweeps of the station then 9 times out of 10, they will spot a traitor doing something incriminating, and with the element of surprise it's trivially easy for them to shoot the traitor in the back and either execute or permabrig them. While I agree, I do think "letting people have some slack early in the round" is different from what I normally see, which is "ignoring people massacring everyone 30 minutes into the round." It's a problem. E: forgot to quote

Just Offscreen posted:I always thought a good way to make people hold onto their PDAs would be to just...combine them with the ID cards. Make an ID PDA or somesuch. I actually came here to post this.  PDAs do need extra function, and merging the ID card and PDA would probably still work pretty well. Plus, you could add a traitor item to let you steal someone's ID through the PDA in a similar function to the PDA bomb.

I would like it if there was less incentive to steal traitor items as soon as you could when you're not a traitor, like making traitor items less effective when used by non-traitors or something.

Roach Warehouse posted:I've decided to give the game a shot after enjoying the thread's stories for a few weeks, but the goon account authentication site (http://byond.lljk.net/) seems to be broken. Whenever I try to register I keep getting the message 'Could not contact Alluvion', is it a big deal if I pub it up on the goon server? That's been broken for a while now. It's fine if you're not registered, I never did because even back when I did it it was broken and I've been playing fine. Registering just gets you access to the goonsay channel.

Just started the engine on my own for the first time ever as a borg in a round with no engineers. By the end of the round the captain was lost on Mars and we had one latejoining engineer. I think it's my most successful round yet, considering I survived the whole thing and powered the station right before it completely lost power.

You can find staple guns at various locations around the station, and medbay uses them to reattach limbs. You can also harm-intent someone with a staple gun to put a staple in them and do a small amount of damage and cause bleeding.
