tater gimmicks tater gimmicks discuss yer tater gimmicks 'ere

(yes changeling/malf/nuke/cult/rev all count too, but how in the hell do you gimmick those last 2)

[Saegrimr]

Start a public book club in the Library as cultists, draw a rune under an r-table, table some dude and 360MLGQUICKCONVERT his ass?

I've been wanting to go on a THE FURY run every since I watched someone take over Medbay with a flamethrower. I think that was Reimoo. Shit was amusing as hell to watch.

[Scones]

THE WINDOWBREAKER was fucking hilarious
Someone grabbed a fireaxe, agent ID + mask and space suit and broke every fucking external window and grille on the station

[NikNakFlak]

The good ol fashion C4 signaler box trick. Maybe not a gimmick but always funny as hell.

If you can pull it off: Getting a bunch of people to go through the gateway and then blowing it up and then axe murdering them all.

Putting up uranium walls somewhere and then scream for people to help you. Same thing as the escape lube airlock thing except with radiation.

Speaking of which, I want someone to do the old escape lube airlock thing again. I haven't seen it ages.

[DemonFiren]

As potato lizard, make your target hate you, have them slur you over the radio, then coordinate with your scalefriends and bring down the wrath of the lizardbar.

Or voicechange+agent. I'm not sure. Do lizards still hiss with the voice changer on?

I was an atmos tech ling a few days ago, haven't played antag ever.
I made one of the maint room a sealed deathtrap filled with only CO2, took a recorder and recorded a long speech for the doctor I was about to murder how he had mocked me and such. I was going to leave him to die with a small oxygen tank waiting to slowly deplete and suffocate to death, all the while I float outside in space and watch him through the window and laugh manically.

...All went well until I had to actually capture the doctor. I sent a PDA message to him, calling for help, he came, I used a ling scream to stun him--- but he wasn't stunned. He just kinda walked it off and I couldn't do anything to capture him! So the first question before making awesome gimmicks is how the fuck do you kidnap someone without murderboning a sec officer first and using his stunbaton?

[Whoisthere]

I remember there was a mime in an orange syndicate suit with a seemingly endless supply of plasma canisters.
He kept opening said canisters on the station and causing plasma fires.

His name?

PLASMANIAC!

make a stun prod and cable restraints

[DemonFiren]

Pop a crate.

Ling EMP can crack open lockers (like an ion rifle) - find a Sec post, hide the locker somewhere secret and EMP it open, take the sweet loot, close and EMP to lock it, put it back.

Cablecuffs aren't hard to make - rightclick cable coils (15+) and 'Make Cable Restraints'.

If you're feeling clowny, mutesting them then drag them over some soap, apply cablecuffs.

.. actually, mutesting them anyway. Their best weapon against a prepared ling is calling it out over comms, and if you take that away from them...

If you're a shirtless QM, taser crates are your friend. Scientist? Advanced eguns. Chemist/bartender? Beepsky smash. The possibilities are endless.

[Fragnostic]

WARNING: Requires basic amount of robust:
Got tasked with assassinating someone?
Build a ragecage and buy two eswords.
Challenge target to a fight.
Robust their ass and win the respect of the crew, getting away with murder.
Pick up the esword of your felled opponent and make a double esword to robust any body sec that wanna valid anyway.
LE GREENTEXT xDDD

[Rhisereld]

I did a tator gimmick on Badger a while ago as a crazed cannibal, and started cooking up members of the crew.

I think it went over well.

[DemonFiren]

Doesn't sound too different from regular chef.

[Rhisereld]

I don't understand why they got so upset! ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

[Loonikus]

Next time I'm a tator, I want to dress up in yellow gym shorts with a yellow scarf, a blue suit jacket, blue no-slip shoes, blue hat and gloves, and a voice changer with an Agent ID named Captain Sweden.

I will than run around the station, hunting down and kidnapping evil white male human oppressors while screaming "SWEDEN! YES!"

You can't do the whole gimmick though since ERP is banned.

Where did he say he planned on fucking them? I imagine a hidden room full of people with no headsets or anytbing that he sits and watches through a window while they fight to the death, only the true Swede leaves alive.

[Vekter]

Turning everyone into monkeys as a Chemist and throwing them in the pen. No one ever bothers to ask why I have 30 dead monkeys. After a while I just get bored and stop cloning people.

Also, the escape lube trick, but you make it the only path and tell everyone you made a slip-n-slide.

If you can pull it off: Getting a bunch of people to go through the gateway and then blowing it up and then axe murdering them all.

Sounds like a Stargate episode.

[Balut]

I HAVE A DREAM.

A DREAM, THAT I WILL GET TRAITOR.

AND BE ASSIGNED THE JANITOR AS AN ASSASSINATION TARGET.

AND ON THAT DAY, I WILL MAKE A MESS

HIDE IN A CLOSET

AND CALL THE JANITOR.

AND WHEN HE COMES TO CLEAN UP THE MESS

I WILL POP OUT OF THAT CLOSET WITH A REVOLVER

SCREAM "GARBAGE DAY"

AND SHOOT HIM DEAD.

[Saegrimr]

[LunchboxKilla]

I want Rev head... Flash people and order them to party with me in the bar. No longer be forever alone
