I know the emitters and barrier pieces have existed since CogMap but I don't think the actual make-a-singularity bits were still around.

I forgot the rush of juking the security team while robbing them, using a heady mix of meth and space lube to both shrug off stubs and slip fools, all due to a misunderstanding with giving assistants potentially deadly chemicals as an experiment.

Last night as the clown I was able to run into security, tried to steal the donuts, and immediately the officer inside tried to beat me with his baton; I stole a segway and rode out the door and when he gave chase he slipped on my banana peel, after more public beatings and him demanding I give his baton back, (which he likely lost when he slipped on my banana peel) I showed him my funny pack and he took the russian revolver out from it, tried to shoot me with it, and killed himself

I tried to make peace with a bee balloon but he wished only for violence

People often reference clowns that can kill anyone with nothing but a banana and a bike horn, but this? This is top-notch clowning, imo.

This, this right here is top tier clowning. The only way it could be better is if the head of security or the captain managed to space themselves while chasing you.

I had a really fun round as the radio host earlier acting out a radio play. I began the round as a propaganda mouth piece. Then the "People's Liberation Organization of the People", or PLOP, seized the radio and urged the crew to rise up. Eventually I had the CentCom CEO send some agents to "renegotiate" the crew's contracts.

Since the radio station is on a different z level I couldn't see what was happening but the radio chatter told me that the crew actually played along. I suicided when the shuttle was called to see what the station looked like and it seemed like the crew really did revolt. It was probably one of my most fun rounds in a while despite the fact that I never left the radio room.

A story from the CM server about the new players:

"2 doctors clubbing a marine on the operating table with anesthetic tanks. The CE comes in to ask them what they're doing("we're operating"), which gives the poor marine the chance to get up and limp to safety. Seeing that their patient has escaped, one of the two doctors, without missing a beat, tables the other one, knocks him out, and starts carving his foot off with a combat knife."

Medicine and murder is a very fine line in SS13. And the two can often blur, depending on the course of treatment.

I remember when I played as doctor because I wanted to learn how to do lifesaving surgery from someone who know how to do it, but then the other doctor in medbay asked me to teach him how to do surgery, so I shrugged and said sure.

I'm pretty sure he caught on that I was making it up as I went, but he remained politely attentive as I fumbled around with IVs and scattered Assistant bits all over the room. Later on in the round I saw him stabbing the hell out of some guy in the bar, and complimented his surgical technique.

Oh hey, I posted that. Here's an extra fun detail: the doctor who had his foot carved off proceeded to get up and continue wandering around medbay trying to operate on people for another 15 minutes before collapsing from bloodloss because he never sealed off his stump.

Also in one of the other operating rooms there was a fully nude marine covered in bleeding lacerations because a doctor had opened an incision on each of his body parts without anesthetic and then gotten bored and wandered off. He couldn't get out because his ID had been taken and the privacy shutters were down so nobody could see that he was in there.

One of the best/worst parts of the recent influx are the Dunning-Krueger marines that jump into SL, SO, Doctor, etc as soon as they figure out how to opt into roles.

Meanwhile, me and my inferiority complex took 3 months to try out smart gunner :(

A guy got BE'd because he chose Executive Officer in his first ever round. He put on a suit of armour and the Captain told him to take it off. When he asked him how to take armour off the Captain just pulled his revolver and shot him in the face.

It’s often impossible to tell the difference between a surgeon who is trying to kill you and one who is genuinely trying to save you but doesn’t know how to use the interface very well.

I got blind drunk, stumbled about the station, tried to throw an oxygen canister at a clown, fainted, got dragged to medbay where they pumped me with saline solution but I still seemed to be hosed. Then I got dragged out of medbay and left to die on the floor outside, before a robot came along and stabbed me with a scalpel, which resulted in the entirety of medbay exploding.

A dimensional rift then opened and killed more people before the remaining survivors evacuated to the shuttle.

And sometimes, especially in Robotics, you get the overzealous surgeons who assume that anyone who hops on a table wants his brain out. I was working on a guy who wanted robot legs, and another roboticist walked up and debrained the guy in two seconds while I was still fumbling with the stapler.

He was a moron, but you couldn’t deny his technique.
