1 dismissal Replace secret extended with auto-traitor, starting from 0 traitors

[NerdyVampire]

Have you ever started a round of secret and been sorely disappointed when it turns out to be extended in the end?
Or opened aurora and seen the round type as secret and... again been sorely disappointed when you join, hoping for an antag round?

Well, I have joined such rounds, and it kinda sucks tbh. I do like extended on occasion, but I don't really find it a pleasant surprise not to have antags in a round I expected antags in. I understand it happens because people who vote secret don't always have their own roles toggled, and sometimes all the round-start players don't want to be antags. That's fine.

But when I join with my roles on, why can't I just get the antag role then, so everyone who voted for secret get their 'SURPRISE' moment, I get to contribute to a round as antag like I am fine doing, and every other player who sees the 'secret' and hopes it means antag, wont be disappointed.

I think this is part of what Skull wanted in the below, except in a smaller scale, I just want auto-traitor if the rest doesn't make sense.

If you want a guaranteed antag, vote for antags. Secret Extended is one of my favorite game types because everyone acts like a suspicious asshole and you get to grill them for it on voted extended.

Well, that's what divides us. We both like the 'not knowing' part, but I just want to be sure that something is coming, and I don't think I'm alone (but maybe I am?)

What could also solve this, is having an 'Antags' (with another name) vote option, which simply guarantees that it isn't Extended but can be anything else, regardless of players at round-start. It would just select someone when they become available.

Then you could vote regular Secret with Extended included, and those who want an antag by any means can go Antags. That'd solve the problem in my opinion at least.

I like secret extended. The guarantee that there isn't always something is very, very nice.

Voting for dismissal.

It is intentional that voting for secret does not guarantee a antagonist.
