Re: Antagonist handholding AKA Heretics


I had a long passive-aggressive rant typed up, but I thought better of it.


I think what you wrote is even worse than any passive aggressive message you sent. My experience doesn't have to be from playing Sybil to have thoughts on something, nor am I part of some collective "coder" hivemind that ...

Re: Antagonist handholding AKA Heretics


If you legitimately think this, you need to take a very long look at the wizard spellbook, because you are objectively wrong. You're comparing to Smite(instant round removal if they click on you once), Fireball(ranged high damage mangling if they click on you and don't miss), Death Wand(instant ...

Re: Antagonist handholding AKA Heretics


This seems like a complete misevaluation. Comparing Wizard to Heretic should result in Wizard being the far stronger result in every situation.


I agree that Wizard should be stronger than Heretic, the comparisons I made is because I think Heretics outperform Wizard, and that sucks.

Antagonist handholding AKA Heretics

One thing I never enjoy with Antagonists is its handholding, it's lame when someone has no way to fend for themselves unless they fully prepare to deal with you, and I think that consistently Heretic is the grossest one.

I'm gonna put comparisons between Traitors, Heretics and Wizards to show off ...

Re: johntgwillard - Tiders don't get free stuff

I am not related to Fulpstation at all. I was a mod there about 16 months ago and made PRs there.

Though even if I was, Heliostation and Bloodsuckers are code stuff that I am unable to change, and there are coding-related reasons why those were never added in both here and here

Re: johntgwillard - Tiders don't get free stuff


Considering that you don't feel assistant really has it's own identity and you want to restrict their creative freedoms further what would your stance be if you had the option to remove assistant outright?

If you were against it what do you believe an assistants role should be that wouldn't be ...

you will not banish all the "assistant mains" to the shadow realm by taking away their maint access. they will either not care, line up at HoP or just go engineer instead. your platform is "i hate assistants lets take away their maint access, other than that i will just cooperate i guess."

At this point I think you are derailing from what the point of the thread is. Fulp in my name does not stand for Fulpstation, and I am not claiming to know what is best for "them" (Again, I do not think assistant "mains" should exist), I'm saying I believe the server as a whole would be best if they ...

So you want to remove the job which has trully 0 expectations ? So people will be forced to play jobs they don't want to perform, and they end up hogging the job slots ?

Re: johntgwillard - Tiders don't get free stuff


Let's suggest a hypothetical, since i don't think it is terribly much of a stretch if you believe that tiding into departments via maint is at all a concern presently.

Let's say assistants just open passages into maintenance via tunneling into the walls, since they cannot use the doors and nobody ...

In your opinion, what are the actual benefits of removing maintenance access? Who does it benefit and how will it make TG better overall?

Hello, I am JohnFulpWillard, you likely recognize me because I am a Maintainer, however I do have opinions on the servers itself and I am taking the opportunity here to offer them.

Re: Should we remove post revs?

i like post-revs

It's interesting to see who fights for what position and the extra freedoms they are given. The only problem I have is that I rarely see any Security/Command to be free from in the first place.

You're the one getting an advantage by using another megafauna's arena, I don't see the problem that the colossus has somewhat of a chance to counter it.

I've basically thought of SS13 as a perfect game to stream, as someone who used to stream and watch streams of Town of Salem (imagine my shock when someone named john willard talks about town of salem).
Town of Salem and Space Station 13 are pretty similar games in terms of social deduction with ...
