So I saw some Space Station 13 threads awhile back, and was wanting to ask a few questions about it. Any answers would be helpful, so thank you.

1: Is the game good from an RP perspective?
2: Are any of the servers/stations free, or do they all require you to have donated to the site?
3: What is the gameplay like?
4: Do you find that most people who play the game play it "correctly" (correctly being that they actually try to do more than be murder-hobos in space) or are they mostly murder-hobos?
5: Do any of you have some good tips for a beginner? I'm at least going to try it a few times to see if I like it, and during those few times I'd like to know what I'm doing.

6: Got any funny stories?

Back in the day on goonservers, when disease research was still a thing and before they made all the computers function like unix, back when it was Donut Station, I got a little zealous with bomb making, back when the max blast radius was still larger than 14 or so squares. I managed to produce something like 11 or so bombs, and while not a traitor, I wanted to make sure that I took the traitors out, getting more and more paranoid as I fervishly put together the devices. I had stored bombs in every single mail chute around the station, hiding them in backpacks looted from the crew quarters. I had intended to provoke the traitor into sending the signal to detonate the bombs to make it easier to spot and capture the traitor, as they'd be fiddling around with a PDA or signal transmitter, but my paranoia at this point was too great. As the escape shuttle pulled into the escape arm, I freaked the fuck out when a guy came at me with a toy sword, convinced I had found the traitor I triggered the explosion.

I instantly gibbed and the game hung for about 5 minutes as it calculated all the bombs going off, killing over 90% of the people on the station, people are flipping their shit in OOC chat, no one escaped on the shuttle, and as a ghost, I saw my destruction, there was less than 5% of the station usable and air was rapidly leaking out, everyone in the escape arm was dead, the few people alive were struggling to not be sucked into space, there was almost nothing left of donut station.

I got banned for a week and they tweaked the everloving fuck out of bomb making so such a tragedy could never occur again, making it so bombs cook slower and you can't make as many, and capping their blast radius.

From an RP perspective, the game can be good, though most players favor when complete chaos breaks out, like kudzu or a blob or a zombie outbreak or something that makes the traitor's job that much harder like a randomly appointed wizard during a nuke round.

All of the servers/stations are free, but goonserver have a special chat for those who have signed up for something awful forums, but have special disdain for those who get an SA account JUST for SS13.

The gameplay is clusterfucky as fuck. It's barely intuitive as there's a lot of contradictory things everywhere, such as eating food involves clicking on yourself but if you do that with a banana, you jam it in your eye and can go blind, you have to peel it first in your hand by clicking on it in your hand, then click it again to eat it.
Most people do play it sorta correctly, though once chaos breaks out or traitors make themselves super well-known, usually all bets are off.
>>
>>27169058
You got banned for that? Seems like a good bit of fun. I don't like games where people ban for every little thing.
>>
>>27169199
I got banned because the lag was so bad the round wouldn't reset and it required like 6 mods to figure out what the fuck actually happened that the game broke. Also for killing EVERYONE while not being a traitor.

1. Depends on the server, they range from Kittenshack's griff filled Aliens vs Humans all day to /tg/station's meta as hard as you can just don't let anyone find out to baystation's autistic if you don't roleplay the way we tell you to we'll permaban you, fucknugget.
2. I have never seen a server you have to donate to play on and that sounds like a shitty server if you have to
3. Gameplay is 2D no stops on the lagtrain find how many ways to kill yourself while trying to do your job simulator, which is surprisingly fun
4. I only play on /tg/station and everyone who isn't a blatant newfriend that wants to toolbox people's face plays completely normally, not overly roleplay-wise, but at least doing their job until they get an idea, or shit hits the fan and they either turn into Vietnam War Veterans who will stick a piece of glass on a metal rod and stab you to death with it should the situation call for it, or try to do it anyway and get their shit kicked.
5. Play Assistant first, learn how to do a small amount of things, then try cargo tech, learn how to do more stuff. Then evolve from there. I recommend reading the FUCK out of the server's respective wikis and watching a bit of a Let's Play to understand how it is to be an average play.
6. One time the funmins decided that the round, it being several hours in and boring as fuck, and needed a reason to get the shuttle called, decided to make four ghosts into a Slimesquad (A deathsquad (Agents sent to usually blow the fuck up out of the station), but with slimes). As one of them, our mission was to assimilate everyone into the greater biomass, IE: Absorb everyone to death and get enough shit hitting the fan for the station to call the shuttle. Fifteen minutes later ended in the entire station, sans maybe five people out of the thirty onboard, eaten by slimes. We also claimed the emergency shuttle for the Slimuloth due to our splitting into more slimes completely covering everything. It was glorious.

Just a week for destroying the entire station?

I got permabanned from /tg/ station for gibbing a changeling with a bomb specifically designed to obliterate a single tile with zero collateral damage. Literally a bomb with a 1x1 blast area.

Apparently the "changeling" wasn't a changeling and was just some guy (probably a badmin or badmin's friend) choking people to death in the hallways and using an "extends his probiscus" custom emote. Still bullshit though

Well, this was Goonstation first off, second off, I was pretty apologetic for making the game unwinnable for the good guys or the traitors.
>>
I read through a couple threads a long time ago and decided to give it a try. The very first round I played I got knocked unconscious by this guy. He dragged me into this room, secured me to a chair, and proceeded to take all my items and torture me until he finally went away. He sealed the room and vented the atmosphere until I suffocated.

I never played again.

I was a traitor.
I had an assassination mission.
I caught my target committing a crime, stunned him, and hauled him off towards sec- then took a left turn into a nearby airlock, where I took his radio, ID, and hardsuit, and threw him out the airlock stunned. Target down, mission successful. Nobody suspects a thing. I get back to my station duties...

And then as I pass Command, someone familiar appears in front of me...

"GUESS WHO MOTHER FUCKER"

It's the guy I threw out the airlock. With a fire axe.

>OH SHIT RUN

Long story short, Sec brigged me for the rest of the round.

It turns out he grabbed onto one of the solar arrays. Using his emergency oxygen, he hauled himself back to the station before cold could kill him.

> And that's why you check for emergency air when you space people.

I played three classes: HoP, Quartermaster, or Security. I think Security was where I best roleplayed, Quartermmaster was a thief, and everyone hated when Sam Shephard was the HoP "psst!, Clown, trade you all access for your crayons"
crayons were ballin'

I used to play on Bay because I liked some of their code.

Long story short, I left because the admins were pricks who looked out for their friends and the only way to do anything but "Your Job forever and ever" was to suck admin cock as hard as you could.

So I went to /tg/.

So then I went to /vg/.

I was playing Shaft Miner, and I'd had several consecutive shifts with the same person, which was pretty awesome. We trusted each other to have the others back, that kind of shit.

Then he asks me to come into the Dorms after I've finished delivering the latest load of materials. When I get there, he's removed all the inbetween walls, leaving a large 2x8 rectangle. He's also bolted all but one of the doors, and is standing at the far end.

When I come in, he bolts the door down that I came in through and throws a parapen and an e-sword at me, telling me he was traitor and I was his target, but he didn't want to kill me because we were such good friends.

I picked up the weapons, put the e-sword in my backpack, and approached him. I said 'Thanks for not killing me and such, man. Really good of you.' or something along those lines, and then 'You made a mistake, though. Loyalty to Nanotrasen and such.'

I parapenned him, choked him to death and threw his naked body into space, then continued to do my job as Shaft Miner.

SS13 plays better when you forget everything negative that happens between rounds.

If someone murdered you brutally and destroyed the corpse for no apparent reason, then you shouldn't remember it next round.

I started on /tg/station a long while back.
I started an assistant. You know, try to figure out what was going to go on.
I arrived to chaos. Controlled chaos, but still chaos.
Wandering past the Medbay, trying to avoid offending anyone, I had a doctor just about grab me and drag me into the Medbay.
Turns out he was a philanthropist. Made me an a Doctor In Training. Got me kitted out, taught me the basics of first aid and told me to stay put in Medbay and make myself useful. Said I'd live longer that way.

And I did.

I made it all the way to the shuttle when shit hit the fan.
It was all up from there. Getting a real Doctor's Badge. Learning the basics of being robust, to deal with the occasional troublemaker, how to tranquilize people with the syringe gun and sleep toxin, the various necessary treatments for stranger wounds. All of it.
And when to book it or defend the fort.

I made it through revolutions, aliens, even the great Honk Plague. All thanks to this one doctor. Can't even remember his name, it's been so long since I drifted away. But I remember that one day, getting a crash course in life saving.
>>
>>27177712
>Sleep Toxin
>Not a rapid-firing syringe gun with four 15 unit doses of chloral.

It's like you didn't even WANT to kill them.
>>
>>27177780
I preferred to get up close and personal with my crowbar, and the sleep toxin usually disoriented whoever I dosed with it.
>>
Making food in Hydro Bay, people ask for various stuff and I supply. All-around a good guy, even letting my co-worker whom I had played with for a few rounds make illegal nettles and whatnot.
On our third or four round of the same "Guards rape everyone" bullshit, we decided to stock up on tomatoes. Lots and lots of tomatoes.
We painted the halls red, drugged down the janitor who was trying to clean up the mess. (He ended up being arrested for "sleeping on the job", but that's a different story) When I was finally arrested, my coworker blackmailed security with giving the clown access to hydro bay. Such a simple threat was enough to let me loose. Oddly enough, the highlight of the round was when everyone started discussing if tomatoes are a fruit, berry or a vegetable.
>>
>>27177786
A dosage of Chloral will put someone down a lot faster than sleep toxin will, and if you actually dosed someone with 60 units of Chloral they'd die. Very quickly.
>>
>>27177796
I'll keep that in mind.
>>
I played a Shaft Miner last week.
Rather than peeling off and looking for lost treasure on the asteroid-usually xenos-I decided to follow the only other Shaft Miner around and help him dig out more of the asteroid and collect ores, all while cracking various 'shaft' jokes of an immoral nature.

Long story short, my erstwhile companion put up with it somewhat awkwardly until we took the shuttle back to the station, at which point Sec was messaged via PDA and I was informed that I'd have a lawyer present to defend me in a sexual harrassment suit. The trial was a blast, with me cracking more 'shaft' jokes and getting a decently weighted sentence. We laughed out asses off about it OOC after the round ended.

A game I was once in had a decent trial, we found that the RD was going crazy breaking into things and hitting people, I was playing detective and had built up substantial evidence including photos, foresnsic evidence, interrogation tapes, the works. We managed to get most of the station into the courtroom with lawyer for the RD, captain as judge and CEng as prosecutor (we would have had HoS but he was a witness). We got through most of the trial pretty quick given the overwhelming and the captain was going to give a sentence of life in the penitentiary when the RD suddenly exploded. Which was pretty bizzare but we then had to rush off anyway because someone found that the RD and Xenologist were part of some crazy alien cult and had been growing an alien hive out of xenology.

In KoDT, the one that B.A. repeatedly pulls on his party is "I am an innocent traveller with a magic item... put everything you own in this bag... and get profits!"

The variations on the scam always involve a teleporting gnome who fucks the party over through robbing them blind or stranding them beaten and broken in a bad situation *and* robbed blind.

Last time it was a portal to the obsidian maze-tomb of a undead blind mad god, who had *loads* of treasure. The only way in was to take the magic portal. the only way out was to say something really embarrassing like "mommy mommy I wet 'em!". The GM was recording this, naturally, for bragging rights at the local GM meet.
Of course, mad god does permanent, irreversible HP damage, and the party put all the loot in the bag... gnome takes bag and teleports away.

I think my most memorable story is one of the earlier ones; where most of the station was dead, the command chain was shot to hell, the round had been going for two hours.

This was way back when the AI was right next to vacuum; and someone had stolen an EVA suit and was trying to break in. Not well equipped, doing so just with toolbelt alone. Myself, a lone engineer went out to face them, with only stungloves (RIP)

We fought in silence outside the AI core, as the AI begged us not to harm each other. Jousting for position, both of us equipped soley with fire extinguishers - he with a baton, myself with my own gloves.

And the guy caught me, dead to rights - smacked me right about the face, laying me out - the fire extinguisher spinning in space besides me.

I should have died there.

He tried to strip me down. Tried to rip off the mask, rip away the oxygen cylinder. -The space wind saved me, blowing me back out of reach. He tried again, moving closer against the grille yet only for the wind to blow once more.

-And the third time, there was just enough feeling in my arms for the stun to wear off and for met to tag him with it. He went down, paralysed in space for just that few moment. And out came the fire extinguisher, and slammed into his head, smashing into his visor over and over, bouncing it back and forth against the broken grille surrounding the AI.

Until he gasped and gurgled for air, until I peeled him out of that spacesuit, swore at him, hands bloodied - and tossed his cooling corpse into space.


Only then was the shuttle called, and only then did the we all escape, finally.


The AI thanked me, just before we arrived at nanotrasen. It had been the traitor all along, and had its target killed off earlier in the round - which was why the other came for it. I'd saved a traitor AI.

And it was beautiful.

>>27177548
>who was cuban pete?

Cuban Pete was the hero the station deserved, not the hero the station needed. When he joined the station you had proximately 3 minutes to smash his face in with the nearest toolbox before the station blew to hell and back from massed bombing.

And that was before they capped the bomb deadlyness so each of his bombs would remove about half the bloody station, and it wasn't just one bomb you had to find and disarm. No, it was three, or four, or even five at one time. No one knew how he managed to create such deadly bombs in so short a time. But one thing was for certain: when you heard this http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GJej6kCgxVM over the radio you knew that shit was about to go down hard.
>>
>>27178309
Cuban Pete, first griefer, then security chief, and scientist. He took to the game with studious ability, originally doing roundwide massacres of all on board, before the admins sat him down and told him to shape up or get out.

And he did. Stopped griefing, started learning jobs, roleplayed a grizzled HoS. He was a real fun guy, funny, too, if you forgave him for beating your head in.

And then he discovered science, and excelled in bombmaking. So much that the bombs had to have a max range cap on them.

He has gone, now, but the legend perseveres.

>Is the game good from an RP perspective?
If you find an RP server with similar-minded people, RP can be really great. Really, really great...
>Are any of the servers/stations free, or do they all require you to have donated to the site?
Most servers that I'm aware of are free to join, while they do accept donations, it's by no means necessary to enjoy the game.
>What is the gameplay like?
Confusing as fuck at first, not very user friendly. Once you learn the control scheme, though, there's a deep ocean of possibilities hiding underneath. You can build, destroy, kill, revive, heal the sick or make everyone crazy. You can be a god amongst gods. With some clever thinking, practically anything is possible.
>Do you find that most people who play the game play it "correctly" (correctly being that they actually try to do more than be murder-hobos in space) or are they mostly murder-hobos?
At this point, it really depends which server you're on. For example, on the US Goon servers (Something Awful's servers I think) RP is barely a thing now and gameplay quickly devolves into a murderfest; WHICH CAN BE FUN IF YOU'RE INTO THAT!
>Do any of you have some good tips for a beginner?
Read the server recommended wiki starter guide. Start as assistant, declare LOUDLY in OOC chat that you're new. Don't break IC in OOC or OOC in IC unless it's STRICTLY necessary (say, to not get you banned or some such, but if admins aren't going to listen to your side of the story, you've probably found a bad server).
But really, read the wiki. Maybe find a Sandbox server and try things out, experiment!

I am currently banned from /tg/station because I was playing scientist and nothing happened all round so I still had all my bombs intact when it came time for the shuttle. During the shuttleride, right when I was setting the timers for an end of the round explosion, some asshole set off a flashbang which caused me to jump and accidentally click on the "open" button of the tank valve.

SS13 is good if you have a good admin (knows what he is doing, checks out peoples stories for validity, doesn't just favor his fucking friends). Otherwise it's bullshit. OP's picture just about sums up my experience as security chief. We literally had the most sloppy traitors in existence but we couldn't do anything about because "SECURITY ABUSE." Also loved the "WTF, WHERE WAS SECURITY?!?" when half the station exploded. Fuck this game, never playing it again.

Third game I ever played.

I joined as a Cargo Technician.

Only other guy there was the Quarter Master.

He told me to move crates onto the conveyor belt.

I fucked up, moved the first one to the wrong belt, the QM took it to the right one, patiently told me to take the other ones to this one, left to do QM things.

I took all the normal crates, asked over radio about the special crates, he told me to take those too.

Half-way through, he ran in, grabbed me, dragged me to an out-of-the-way room, told me about how a syndicate member tried to shoot him.

So in interest of survival, he took me to an escape pod, welded us in.

Time passed, we talked, the pod ejected, we got away safely.
,

I know it seems stupid, and pointless, but I enjoyed that for reasons inexplicable.

Actually sounds nice.
Was kinda getting tired of random people bursting into the bar and asking for as many pan-galactic gargle blasters as they could drink before passing out and sueing me the next day.

The secret for enjoying SS13, for me, is to not care about winning and just have other fun when you inevitably die.

It's like paranoia, without 6 lives.
>>
Mainly I played as a roboticist.

One rev round I spent the entire time passing flashes to one of the rev heads, being a head myself. Over time, I pimped out a Gygax and gave my trusty rev assistant one of his own. We stormed the brig where the heads were holed up in a wave of robotic fury. Watching them shit themselves was hilarious.
>>
>>27180903
your biggest problem was playing security
>>
>>27181090
See, I've had shitty rounds as Sec one or twice, but for the most part its been pretty good.

It sucks that in the time it takes to type "Halt, citizen!" they've almost always either ran or shanked you and spaced you but occasionnally I've had great rounds.

Particularly when the escape shuttle has arrived and, instead of just elbowing and crowbarring my way on board like most people, I've run back into the bruning mangled wreck of a station to find and evacuate trapped civilians

Is SS13 still lagging like shit?
>>
>>27181191
Yes.

>>27168502
Isn't someone trying to rewrite the game?

Hey, I'm kinda new to this, I've installed BYOND and clicked on the server links on the /tg/station page but nothings happened, have I done something wrong?

The last dozen or so times I've played on any server, there wasn't a functional legal system, as such, so that kind of thing didn't happen.

Can't get sued if there isn't a Lawyer, or indeed, a court that gets used.

Hell, I've gotten blasted on my characters and no one even bothered with my drunken antics as long as no one got hurt and nothing got broken.

The fact that I wasn't doing my job and making a mess with vomit seemingly didn't matter.

If anything I was doing the opposite of my job as Janitor by making messes.

And as a Clown, stuff like Drunken Antics are sort of your job, even if it kind of conflicts with other people. Which is the beauty of the game, I guess. Everyone has so many resources they want to do stuff, or get in each others way somehow. Fun happens.

Although I have gotten punched in the nose for sitting on a bar stool as a mime, and conspicuously drinking my bottle of nothing.
>>
>>27181255
That probably hasn't happened for hundreds of years.

>>27181172
I'd say have a macro for it, or just have it typed in constantly, and if you want to say something else, erase that and type that.

One time, before the bomb revisions, someone threw a tank transfer valve (read: A BOMB!) into the brig where Cuban Pete and I were, and started running.

Pete picked up the bomb, and threw it instantly, and ran.

It hit the would be bomber a moment before blowing the brig entrance into a crater and the traitor into tiny bloody pieces.

Pete and I survived.

It was glorious.

yeah, but tossers still carry grudges. I had one tool stalk me for 3 rounds trying to get vengeance for my spacing of his badsec.

He also got the admins involved, tried to robust me while I was talking face to face with said admin and spammed me with insults and provocations.

I killed him 5-6 more times over the span of the 3 games before I finally let him grab me in the garbage disposal.

Nice to see an ss13 thread from time to time.

I've got an RP server with some of the old guard /tg/station players, if people are interested - byond://mycraft.se:1337

It's not nearly as chaotic as /tg/station and the like, but that would make it a very nice and relaxed way to learn the game. (Rounds will usually go for 2+ hours)

Yes. They're making some good progress too.

I'm not a huge fan of the artstyle of the remake, but that's only because their spessmen are tall instead of short.

>>27178434

I remember teaching Cuban Pete how to make bombs - I was Aranus your friendly neighborhood scientist one round when Cuban Pete, as a Clown, dismantled his way into Toxins and started faffing about. I'd called for Security, but they were busy murdering the Janitor, so I shrugged and asked Pete if he wanted a lesson on bomb-making.

Thirty minutes or so later we were done, I gave Pete the weakest of the completed bombs, and he ran off merrily on his way while I hooked the other two bombs up to remote detonators set to a specific frequency I'd pre-tuned my PDA to and stuffed them in my backpack, just in case. Shortly after the Head of Security spotted Pete and tried to kill him because Clown, and Pete suicide bombed him.

The Captain promptly ordered Security to arrest and space me, and in self-defense I triggered my two bombs when the Security team closed in. Blew up roughly a quarter of the station.

And that's how I got banned on /tg/station. Apparently Pete continued bombing things in memory of me, though.

Alright, I'd never heard of SS13 before this thread, but it looked FUN.

So, I spent several hours reading up on facts in the wiki, making sure I'd have a passing semblance at competence in the game (not that I actually did when I got in there). Of course, I start as an Assistant because that's what everybody says to start out as. But Jesus fucking Christ, I had a horrifying experience.

Everything starts well. I'm "new to space," so the Engineer takes me under his wing and I start learning how to fix shit. It's pretty fun, and we're just hanging about and doing our jobs when the Miners come back from the asteroid and start heading for the Medbay (they passed right by me). Next thing I know, there's a massive clusterfuck going on. Thirty minutes in.

Fuckin' xenos, man.

Facehuggers had gotten the Miners, although what strange influence had brought them to think they should come back on the station is beyond me.

So the Medics are a bunch of blundering chucklefucks tripping over fucking banana peels (so this is why everybody kills the clowns), and the larvae escape into the ducts. A few minutes later, we've a full scale invasion on our hands. I'm still shadowing the Engineer because I know fuck-all about combat in this game and quite honestly it took me ages to figure out how to hit things with a toolbox. Engineer and I are running like fuck through the space station, I don't know where we were going until we hit the cargo bay, where there were some spacesuits (I think?) that had just been requisitioned. He told me to put it on, but at that particular moment some adult xenos decided the cargo bay would be a fun place to hang out so I decided to GTFO and left the Engineer with a couple of those Cargo Personnel folks. Probably not the best idea.

(cont)
>>
>>27189532
So now I'm running alone through the space station and lights are going out and I try to swing by the R&D sector--I read that bombs and chemicals were there, which might help. Nope. Entire thing is fuckin' GONE. As in, one of the Scientists kamikaze'd. It was sealed off and an atmos guy was running around in circles. So I continue my mad dash through this unspeakable hell and almost get hugged or robusted by xenos several times. I managed to pick up a shotgun from the corpse of the Bartender, who was next to the kitchen gibber (door was left open). Swiped that, but not once did I stop to fire, no. I ran. And ran in circuits and I knew it was not going to be very long for me.

Apparently the Escape Shuttle had been called, because I almost ran past that. The long-lost Engineer was in there, ready to weld the doors shut but he ushered me in first. It was just him and me and I was right next to him as he welded the doors shut. We were gonna live.

So apparently, the xenos leave the pink web stuff around. I didn't know that until afterwards. It was also all over the inside of the escape shuttle, as well as a few corpses strewn about. It's pretty obvious what happens next. The two of us are staring in creeping horror at the web he have welded ourselves in with. And, then, facehugger.

I'd like to say it got the engie and that I was the sole survivor, but that was not the case. After the deed, it was him and me. I calmly gave him the shotgun and a quick nod, and looked death straight down the barrel.

Fuck I love this game.

Cuban Pete was a hero. He was a fantastic artist, making masterpieces of destruction everywhere like it was nothing, composing an orchestra of chaos, death, and explosions. He knew no right nor wrong, only awesomeness. A magnificent bastard, an unstoppable agenda and the skills to carry it out. He was the spirit of the station, the beauty inside us all. Deep within, we all miss him, even if it's just a little bit. He was a true patriot.

The kindly veteran patiently showed the ropes then selflessly made sure to save you the new guy? Heartwarming.

I think this QM might have been me.

If i'm a Head/QM and there is a new guy I show them the ropes. My first shift as Cargo tech a QM did the same for me...carry on the torch.

You guys are making me wanna play /tg/ station again.

Is Cindi Kate and Pinku still about?
>>
>>27168502
>1. No.
>2. All of them are I believe.
>3. Convoluted and laggy, very fun once you get the hand of it though.
>4. There is no absolutely "correct" way to play. It all comes down to individual server rules and how many people are willing to hound you for not doing what they want.
>5. Choose assistant as your role, ask around to help people. Use the wiki as your bible and when in doubt Adminhelp. Don't play antagonist or silicon roles until you have a firm grasp of the controls.

Wow, nice violation of most of your laws, bro.

These are the types of players that inhabit /tg/station now. Stay far away.

Ban-baiting's been around forever, see OP pic.

Did you get banned? If not, why are you complaining?

Awesome.

Ooh, did anyone save the story about the furfaggotry from yesterday?

C-cuban Pete? Is that you? THE Cuban Pete? The man, the legend? Have you returned to deliver us all an explosive masterpiece?

>>27196094
I think that it's shitty that half of the community is trying to hound other players for simply playing the game. For No Raisan(the forum dedicated to bans and ban requests) for example is constantly flooded with minor complaints in an attempt to crucify certain players.
>>
>>27196134
It's even worse on goon. I got a month long ban for cuffing an engineer running around with a goddamn tazer and stungloves.
>>
>>27196134
If you act with reasonable suspicion, they the other guy will get banned.

One guy got a few days off after adminhelping when he was killed after throwing tiles at folks.

My first time involved getting killed too. I was chased through the lightless hallways of the Space Station by some asshole with a Toolbox.

He beat me into unconsciousness, welded me into a locker and jettisoned it off into space.

Why?!

No Competent traitor is as hazardous as an incompetent engineer.

I mean, every engineer remembers their first catastrophic fuck up with the Singularity.

I played this game maaaaany moons ago, but I was awful at it, I seem to remember spawning as an engineer and welding a locker shut with either a robot or security guard inside, and then I found a researchers dead body and swapped ID's with him before walking into a hallway full of this green mossy stuff...then the ship exploded.

One of my friends remembered being captured and had snuff ERP forced on her because Amy Lessen found out my friend was a changeling, and forced her to eat Amy sexually and probosisally.

Something was raw afterwards...

In my years of spacemans, there are two things I have never done. I have done everything else, but not these.

These two terrible things are setting up Singulos and making bombs.

I can wire a solar in two minutes flat, have basic viro done by five, and get some dank grown by ten, but I can't do those two stupid things.
>>
>>27200428
Aw man, I can teach you about bombs. Also, I apologize for leaving on short notice, and will write up the rest of the story soom, as the thread isn't dead yet.
>>
>>27201302
Alright, so where was I?
>Oh yes, I was heading to toxins.
>To make a bomb.
>A Big boomnink one, to say the least.
>Doctor is dicking around, cutting wires. >Genetics is an alibi for him.
>Security knows I (Geneticist/doctor) is up to something, but don't know what.
>Finish making tank bomb.
>Call doctor to get bomb, initiate plan B
>Plan B is flash ALL the people!
>Doctor skedaddles towards bridge while security is busy with assistants and clowns punching them.
>Hacks doors open, runs towards the captain and HoP, who was on the bridge too, oddly.
>Yells out "For the liberation of Spacelovakia!" over radio and blows the bomb.
>No more captain, HoP.
>I robust Research director when he walk in with my handy surgical saw to the head.
>Head of security died in fistfight, as Someone (Wink wink) had passed out grenades.
>Chief engineer wasn't playing that round.
>Revolutionary victory!
Anyway, I think I'm going to play some SS13 now. Probably just going to dick around on NSS Exodus.

>>27200428
Setting up singulo is easy though
