[Dismissed] Remove Secret Extended

[LorenLuke]

In secret, more often than not, there's an antagonist. If there's an antagonist, you as a player don't have the primary burden to drive your own RP, and if that involves any actual conflict, you're more likely to get slapped because you aren't an antag (hell, even on regular extended where people want a 'chill' round rather than one driven by antag RP).

But secret extended is a magical place. The angry guy stabbing you after a verbal altercation- griefer, bad escalation, antag? Who knows!? The best revolution I've ever seen was organic in a secret extended round. The bloodiest times were secret extended rounds (bar the time you get 3 /tg/ players on the same Merc team).

Yes, people meta and fundamentally prepare for it like an antag round and operate under such principles as if it were, but there's no idea what (or if) the antag even is. There are things in secret extended that would /never/ happen in regular voted extended and that's the beauty of such mode.

But why have it at all, if that's what happens and it just serves as a confounding variable to whether or not you're reacting to antag play? Because you shouldn't be reacting to 'antag play', you should be just an appropriate reaction to the circumstances around you.

If this serves as a stumbling block to your character or play, perhaps examine both.

I am fully against removing extended from secret, it is a gamemode like other, and people should/are aware that it is possible when voting for secret.

 

Voting for dismissal.

[Flamingo]

I am also fully against the removal of secret extended. 

Voting for dismissal.
