Yes please.

Is back!

That looks like the mutant horror-form of an Ewok. Wouldn't spend ERP token.

Truly an apt low-res depiction of a horrible mass of tentacles and claws. I want to spend my ERP token on this!

Bonus points if you can "accidentally" make kitchen knife soup.

Mwahahahahahahaha!

Most brains can be deconstructed for research, let Vox join the club. Good for RPing vox dissections, too.

When in doubt ahelp it and let the staff decide if it's worthy of their attention.

It occurs to me that if there is an actual legitimate but non-emergency reason to "promote" an off-duty visitor to their normal rank, there's always the fax machine. I can see this being useful if there is, for example, a shortage of engineers or other mission-critical staff. It would be nice if there was a proper form for it, though.

I'm glad to be rid of genetics, that sub-department was a constant source of headache, but how do we make protohumans now? They're super useful for, like, all sorts of science stuff. Also, fixing aesthetic stuff with genetics can be important in ling rounds where people don't want to spend the rest of the round wearing the wrong face.

Perhaps a mechanic similar to that used for slimes in xenobiology... put the corpse on the table, cut it open, then extract pieces of meat.

That's absurd, even by the standards of the party cargo bay.

I'm just going to put this out there: Cyborgification is the next best thing (or possibly the next worst thing) to death. It makes for a good capital punishment alternative for both IC and OOC reasons, and there is a visceral satisfaction to turning a traitor into a janitor borg, but it makes no sense lore-wise for a healthy person to volunteer to have their brain cut out and lobotomized so it can be used to run a robot slave.

Well this is just wrong. Have any of you ever been arrested IRL? Even when everything is cool, you're compliant, and there's no violent crime they STILL CUFF YOU. And I'm sure if you said "no thanks, I don't want to be cuffed, just arrest me as I am" and then moved away when they tried to cuff you anyway, that WOULD be resisting arrest, though I don't know this from experience as I never was that stupid. Why? Because it's procedure. To the point where in some places if a cop gives you a ride in the back of his car he has to cuff you because he's not allowed to have non-cuffed people back there for bureaucratic safety reasons. Now cops on aurora don't have cars to put people in the back of, but they do turn their back on prisoners and lead them through the hallways, which is even less secure. And just because an arrest is peaceful and for something minor and nonviolent doesn't mean that a subsequent search isn't going to reveal them to be a corporate spy, syndicate sleeper agent, or some other form of dangerous criminal who was just pretending to cooperate until they saw their chance to escape. Seeing as there's no profit in taking a chance, and aside from being a little rude there's no harm in cuffing someone, the logical policy would be to always cuff anyone being arrested. This isn't badsec, this is realsec.

Or how about this: secret and mixed secret are taken off the list, people vote for the round type they want, and the game randomly selects one of the votes to go with. Not announcing which one is chosen would make every round secret, but only with the modes people want to play, and most often with the modes most people want to play. Plus there'd be no need for voting strategies, you just pick the game mode you want and you have a fair chance of getting it.
