The antag selector is purely based on chance. It is a statistical illusion that certain people roll antag more often than others. Example: You have 50 crew members in total actually being on the station. For simplicities sake the roundtype is traitor. For further simplicity we say that 1/10 of the active server popultation (50 *1/10 = 5) are rolling traitor. That means, provided that everyone has antagonist turned on gets a 1/10 chance to roll Traitor. Now lets go to the more extreme cases: Only a fraction of that population as antagonist turned on. As in 20 people out of the 50: Now since the active server population is still 50 people there are still 5 antags. But now the chance that you get to roll antag out is 1/4 because onnly 20 people are even considered for antagonist roles. Now to that what is called "gamblers illusion" or more commonly gamblers fallacy: Say you are 1 of those 20 people who have antag turned on. And you dont get antag that round. Round passes and the next round begins. Same situation, 50 active players, 20 people with antags turned on. Now you dont get it again. Same thing repeats for another time. Previous chance rolls do not affect any current chance rolls whatsoever. No matter how you put it. It is possible to not roll antag a few thousand times in a row. Same goes in the other direction. Basicly: The antag selector does not attempt to even out antag selections based on players. It does not have any preferences nor does it have any kind of factors that could lower your chance of rolling antag. The Antag selector doesnt care how often you got antag in the past couple days. But it also doesnt care if you rolled it like 10 times in a row today alone. It is just rolling a dice and nothing can be done about like it is. Now should it be changed: In my opinon it should not... if you implement factors that increase or decrease the chances of rolling antag you can be absolutly sure as hell that people will figure them out and abuse them. Behind every character is a human being after all. And not everyone has the same decency. Some are decent, going so far to say they are nice (and that comes from a misanthrop), but lets face it, most are just stacking odds in their favor one way or another alongside other things what people do not like to see yet possess the same intrinsic attributes they dislike. But I digress. Antag Selector is alright like it is, if people would turn on antag there would be broader selection of people to possibly become one and thus more diversity. Its not the system to blame, its the people to blame.

Syndicate Duffelbag shouldn't be contraband
EldritchSigma replied to trexter555's topic in Suggestions
I'd like to point out that the thing about sec using contraband gets only enforced under very weird circumstances... like I had sec coming with a No Drop Syndie Chainsaw and Dual Eswords after me. Someone ahelped that and got as answer "Should be resolved ICly". Then when someone else does it in the same situation pretty much they get bwoinked for it... Thats why we cant have nice things. This inconsistency is really... annoying to say the least. -

There are other ways now to get combat 5 since RnD got again nerfed again... cause it was <oversight"> that the bola launcher gives it. There are still items in RnD giving Combat 5 but before they get removed too I will keep my mouth shut.

Ryleigh got to wear an infamous piece of clothing after slipping the HoS who was chasing someone stealing the nuke. Rachidi calls this "Is voxkinis yaya."

Being chef and your animals becoming "sentient" as in like player controlled pets. Even worse they gain real sentients and start talking. Pisses me off when the chicken ventcrawls away or the cow tries to run away. Its literally kill on sight. Milk can be gotten from the bar for free at infinite quantities and eggs should be a none issue if you get wheat. People barely go farm animal/chefs animals to fucking annoy the living crap out of him.

I second that but not all vulps are like that (fuck neon vulps). Except for the ursurping part. But then again. Humans behave like a virus too. -

Four mechs made for James McCallister by a cringy shadowy Vulp RD yet he still hates on all vulps.
