OH NO! NO NO NO NO NO NONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONONO!


And on like that for about half a day and I'd still only have expressed about half how much I hate this idea. But Raven, you say, why do you hate clowns with a burning passion brighter and hotter and more murderous than all the bombs and shells used during world war two? Because they're not funny, they're just an excuse for chucklefucking every round. And they're stupid... why the fuck would NT put a clown on a research station with a population that rarely goes above 50 people?


And if my opnion seems a little extreme, I have a dear frenemy who is absurdly robust as a clown, and more than capable of spending all round being chased by security around the station for slipping someone with a banana and then resisting arrest. Not violent or destructive or anything... just really, really hard to catch. If in the horrible and highly unlikely eventuality that we actually get clowns back, I'll invite him to come play here so you can all known the horror that I've known.


Unless the clown just isn't on the crew manifest for some reason. I could deal with that. Every round. Fatally.

You could just make it so your big ol' bulky clown shoes slow you down. A lot.

How about an alternative suggestion:


While the clown role itself make little to no sense in a research station environment, I suggest we make it so that clown or meme set can be ordered through cargo, with the same access lock as costume and wizard crates.


This way, we can still have it if Captain or Head of Personnel are up for it. Otherwise, no, having them by default is just asking to be griefed.
