Name of Event: Syndicate X Nar'Sie One Sentence Description: A high-ranking member of a certain pirate-tech conglomerate now serves a red-space deity, and can utilize the tools given to them by both worlds. Map Changes: Minor Possibly needing to seal off and stabilize atmos in the Abandoned Teleporter for the start of the event. Code Changes: No Suggested Number of Players: High - 80+ Full Description of Event: Under unknown circumstances, a member of Syndicate middle management tasked with negotiating with a local sect of Nar'Sie has gone missing, along with a couple of their underlings and a valuable crate of equipment. However, a local Syndicate outpost on a has picked up a Syndicate tracking beacon making its way nearby to the hostile Cyberiad, and the Syndicate has activated several sleeper agents aboard the Cyberiad to handle this newfound threat. Two or three cultist-traitors spawn into the Abandoned Teleporter with standard civilian clothing, dufflebags, agent IDs, the tools they need to get the teleporter running and a single super-surplus item crate. They will be given a classic cultist objective set, however, their first priority will be to find and dispose of a tracking beacon found in one of their bags. They will be given the following overarching objective as well: "Do NOT allow the presence of the cultist sect aboard the Cyberiad to be revealed." At about ten to fifteen minutes into the round, somewhere between five and ten newly activated "traitors" will be given the following objectives: "Identify and eliminate the cultist sect upon the Cyberiad" and "Do NOT allow the presence of the Syndicate aboard the Cyberiad to be revealed". These traitors will be given classic uplinks with twenty telecrystals. One of the traitors will be the Chaplain, if there is one. The key to this event is the lack of information. The syndie-cultists will not know that they are being hunted down. The sleeper agents will not know who exactly they need to kill, or that their targets are armed with Syndicate weaponry, so they will need to do some sleuth work. And the crew, of course, will not have any idea what is going on, lest they are one of the newly converted cultists or simply a witness that needs to be silenced. The addition of the stealth objectives is to provide the illusion of a normal round until someone is found out, and then for the crew to watch as the whole thing unravels into chaos.

Used half the shift building it, and the other hald hiding from a blob in it. Credits to Fiddler for helping me make it. First time i have really played with chutes and disposals as a way to travel as far as from the bridge to space under atmos. Great Fun, Good rp. 10/10 would do again!

Command Im often seeing Captains just memeing in COMMON. I dont really get how people RP as complete fucking morons as the Space Station captain - and it feels like a lotta OOC stuff half the time. "Hey captain, where do you want the BSA" " In my office, two pointed at eachother so I can die." "Cool - so i just wont ask anymore..." Mining Literally will never talk to eachother or help new miners out. Also doesnt coordinate with QM enough and QM rarely knows enough about mining (myself included, but again due to mining just kinda....fucking ignoring everyone) Cargo and QM I've had amazing shifts, I've had absolutely miserable shifts where my QM is actually just making it difficult to even have fun. When i need a QM or Cargo though as an Engi - 9/10 - no ones at the desk, doesnt know the console, and forgets to prioritize station missions. Chemistry Specifically - these guys have not communicated enough. They'll have me stand there for two minutes while brewing my chems but wont say a word so I keep repeating myself like a jackass cause they dont just say "Sure one moment Doc". I know y'all gotta lot to do - still a roleplaying game. Med Who could complain about these mad lads and their defibs. I'll never understand why you prioritize civies over engies though. Seen it too many times. RND Never had a problem with RND except for toxins test lab never listening to atmospherics and talking about their problems to us. Service Please stop drugging the pizza - it makes it really hard to repair the station. Sec Arrested for putting cargo on a cargobot. Killed because Sec couldnt figure out that they were shooting me with their pewpew and not the slime that was eating me. Arrested for repairing an airlock for "Tampering". Need I say more. Engineering Perfect in every way.

About Antag Tokens: Antag tokens are given out by admins, at their discretion. Typically, they are only given out to antags who have their antag round ruined by an admin's mistake, such as if an admin accidentally crashes the server. You are never entitled to an antag token. If you want to know if you have any antag tokens, ahelp and ask. There is no other way for you to check if you have one. If you have an antag token, you can ahelp "''I would like to use my antag token to become an X''" (where X is "changeling", "traitor" or "vampire") at the start of the round, to become that type of antag. You cannot use antag tokens to become any other type of antag not listed above. You cannot use the same token more than once. Even if you die 20 seconds after using the token. You cannot use antag tokens if you are playing a job that is typically mindshielded, like Captain or Security. Admins may deny your request to use an antag token in any particular round. We typically do this when the round is expected to be short (stops you wasting your token on a short round) or the antags are already very numerous/strong (stops the round becoming too unbalanced). If we deny your request to use a token in a particular round, the token is NOT used up, and you can try again next round.

There are a lot of appeals that get processed through this forum. While a majority of them have been accepted this is often after a lot of posts back and forth. This results in players being unable to play the game for a longer time while they're waiting for their appeal to be processed and in the admin team spending a lot of time working with people to bring an appeal to the successful stage. This post is intended to help cut that time for everyone by telling you upfront what you'll need to include. 1) Use the template. As a policy, any appeal that doesn't follow the template will not be processed until you use the format from the template. This template covers all of the information we need to know to process your appeal and it keeps everything in a consistent format which is easy for the admins to read and respond to. 2) Read the rules. These will show the code of behaviour that you're expected to follow while on the server. Your appeal is a commitment to follow these rules in the future, something which you can't do without reading them. If your ban was legitimately based on breaking any of these rules, then you'll be expected to identify what rules were broken so that you can demonstrate that they won't be broken again. 3) Decide what sort of appeal you're writing. They'll generally fall into the following categories. Identifying a factual mistake of the admins: If you didn't break the rules, then let us know. While we investigate every ban, mistakes do happen. Sometimes we get the wrong person's ckey if multiple people were involved in an issue. Sometimes a situation that looks like one thing was actually something else. In these cases it's best to get straight to the point. Identify what the ban was for and what we thought was going on, then explain the actual situation. If we were wrong then your ban will be lifted. Apology and commitment to improve: If you've actually broken the rules then the ban was legitimate. Regaining the privilege to play on the server may require some work on your behalf but if you can demonstrate that you're going to be a valuable member of the community and able to follow the rules in the future, we will work with you to find a way to bring you back. The best way to show that you're genuine is to understand and identify what you did wrong, if you don't know then how can you change it. If you genuinely don't know, even after looking through the rules, then feel free to ask and we can explain. It also helps for us to know why you did the action you were banned for. This isn't a matter of making excuses, it's helping us to understand the situation you were in and perhaps provide better strategies for handling that situation. Finally if you are going to change your behaviour, then say it so that we can see the commitment that you've made. If you're not genuinely willing to commit to this, then don't bother with this form of appeal. You might pull the wool over our eyes and convince us, but what's the point if you'll get banned for the same thing in a week's time. Work with us and we'll work with you. 4) Avoid using arguments that aren't accepted for appeals. There are some arguments which aren't accepted as valid reasons, while it's impossible to be fully comprehensive here are the ones we see most often. I don't like your rules Your appeal isn't a place to question the current rules of the game. That would be the suggestion forum. We will only be granting appeals to people who will commit to following the current rules of the game. If the environment you want isn't what we provide then unbanning is a waste of everyone's time. My brother did it You are responsible for everyone who uses your Byond account. By giving someone your password, you're enabling them to perform whatever actions they want in your name. Now this does sometimes happen and we're not asking you to lie if this is what genuinely happened, but it's not a defense. Instead you'll need to follow the policy above and understand what went wrong (allowing other people to use your account) and letting us know how you intend to prevent it happening in the future. Abusing the admins It should go without saying that abusing the admins isn't a good way to get us to invite you back to our server. However sometimes in the heat of the moment things slip out, so I'll remind you here to avoid this method. While we'll try to look past this, it does send a signal that you're not looking to co-operate. It should be a temporary ban If you're going to do the right thing, why would we wait to bring you back instead of doing it straight away? If you're not going to do the right thing, why would we ever bring you back? We only use temporary bans when that seems like the best way to change someone's behaviour. If you think that some time away will be a strategy you can use to commit to following the rules, then that's fine. You're welcome to suggest a temporary ban as the best way to bring you back, but this isn't detention or a prison sentence, it's not about providing justice or "paying for your crime". It was good roleplaying You choose the character you play and all the consequences that follow. Your character isn't a real person and we can't hold them accountable for your actions, it has to be done the other way around. Someone else did something wrong first If you've broken the rules, then it doesn't matter what anyone else has done. This is your appeal and unless we've clicked on the wrong person's ban button, we're not going to ban other people based on what gets decided in your appeal. Letting us know what someone else did, at the time with an adminhelp is the best way to see that appropriate action is taken against them. Once you've taken vengeance into your own hands, the issue gets so muddied that it's hard to take any action against them. 5) Listen to what the admins reply. If we're asking you questions or trying to teach you something, then it's pretty clear that we intend on keeping you around. We rarely waste this sort of effort on someone we're kicking out forever. Usually we're telling you exactly how to get your appeal accepted. Regards, M Kenner. Senior Admin.
