Aftering reading over your "Could you give us the gist of what is currently happening in Tau ceti and how it affected your character and their career?" I have no choice but to -1 this app. It shows a profound lack of understanding, which you admit with your own words, of the lore of the server. For starters, why do you think you can use corporate assets, in this case something you grow on the station, as something your character would be able to take off station and sell? There are a number of checkpoint customs that check over what you take off the station. Assuming that's not the case, given you say in it that the character doesn't leave the Aurora, yet still manages to sell these things, I assume you're selling drugs to workers on the Aurora. Recreational, legal drugs, yes, however being a drug dealer selling drugs to your coworkers on company time, with Nanotrasen's product? Not legal. I think you should heavily consider what sort of character you want to play in this role and revisit the question.

Due to OOC reasons we will be closing this review request and archiving it.

Never said any AI didn't anything like that, I just figured if we removed malf for a reason, I'm surprised we allow traitor AI, though Alb makes a good point I actually assumed they were still able to explode apcs and send CC announcements due to something that happened on a prior shift with a traitor AI days ago. If they aren't able, that's fine. I actually meant to say it encourages the same shit rather then IS all the same shit, but such is life. Again, no one did anything to, yet, to warrant an ahelp or a whitelist strip. By all means, feel free to show me or an admin where I mentioned any OOC information about an on going round in this thread. Nice try though lol Anyway, I'm fine with it not being removed with what Alb pointed out.

I don't understand why we allow AI to be traitor when we've removed MALF. It just causes the same shit that got MALF removed to happen, the only difference is we don't have to deal with code delta.

I have a lot of experience with Shadow's command play in the past, I think he did good more often then not. While I haven't interacted too much with his characters icly, the times I have done so have been pleasent. +1

I’ve known Peppermint since she started playing SS13, we met very early on and became good friends right away. I can safely say she is a wonderful person, great writer and role player, but most importantly for this role, a very patient and understanding person. I’ve seen her take criticism/negative feedback very well in the past (I believe her command app specifically being a good example), while also giving constructive and helpful feedback to many people on many different topics such as new concepts for the server, character ideas, and etc. Anybody who knows Peppermint knows they’d be a good fit for this role, as I know they can also be fair and firm in handing out punishment when need be. The inevitable results of their trial will just prove my point with everything I’ve said. They’re a great member of this community and will do great as a moderator to help out. No doubt in my mind for a +1.

This IR is going to be locked and archived due to the offender deleting their character.

Anybody who has ever interacted with MccRrib on an OOC basis can tell you he's a wonderful, funny, smart guy that is enjoyable both to talk too and be around. He always happily takes constructive criticism and improves on everything and anything he can for his characters. He is an excellent roleplayer and can seamlessly lean into any gimmick ICly and will go out of his way to roleplay with most anyone. MccRrib would be a great addition to the lore team, one that would work fluidly and cooperatively with everyone else on the team, of that I am certain. A definite +1.

An easy +1. Faye is an amazing roleplayer and person. She is one of the best medical players we have right now by a wide margin. She makes great characters with excellent personalities and motivations. She will do great in the role of command, no doubt about it.

Name: Game Master Short Description: Like during the KOTW arc, extended rounds would have little (or some times not little) events thrown in to spice things up. As a result, extended was played far more often then usual and peopled seemed to quite enjoy it. Make a whitelisted role that is heavily policed and given only to those that can be trusted to drive a story for at least most of the crew for an entire round, give them the ability to do a myriad of things, such as choosing ghosted people and setting them out with a specific goal. Example: I choose x player to be a Fisanduh nationalist boarding to kidnap Bingbang Volvalaad, the 7 foot noble lord janitor, as a contract a rival put on their head. They get appropriate gear based on the manifest at the time, so if there's only a single bald forensic tech they wouldn't be given deathsquad gear, and sent on their way. On the flip side, I choose three players to show up as a group of scientists that escaped from a nearby ship where a horrible science experiment broke loose. They tell command/security/whoever about how the ship was nearby and was close to self destructing after the Captain enabled the failsafe. Hour or so into the round, I throw out a command report from the Icarus saying debris are heading towards the Asteroid. One of the Debris is carrying said horrible science experiment, maybe some horror form ling or something, and the round goes from there. This could also certainly be used for a myriad of other ideas, not just ones involving hostile antags. Why should we add it?: The possibilities for a role and gamemode such as this are endless, can be easily fueled by our expansive lore, which would only serve to get players further invested in the lore our writers work so hard on. If the whitelisted role was policed appropriately and given to those that could be trusted with it, which is of course easier said then done, it has the chance to vastly improve not just a single round, but a players experience on the server overall. Multiple people got interested in certain parts of the lore through smaller events during the KOTW arc, I think this could serve just the same. That being said, we can throw out ideas all we want, but at the end of the day without a coder backing it up, there's little to be done. Also, on top of that, the gamemode would of course only be able to be run if one of the whitelisted individuals was on, which I'm sure is just a nightmare of an idea to code, but maybe not. Either way, as cool and interesting as I personally find this idea, I can't imagine it'd be easy in any way, shape, or form to implement. As a side note, should this actually become a thing, I personally think the people who apply for the whitelist should have extensive knowledge of the lore, at least parts of the lore they might want to use for their events. I would restrict their ability to do or add certain things based on what whitelists they possess, and be subject to stripping of not only the Game master whitelist, but their species whitelist should they go too far out of their way to break lore/ruin a round.
