Welding masks are expensive. God gave us eyelids for a reason, and that is to protect our delicate peepers while we weld.

It is for this reason that performing the *squint emote should negate eye damage from welding for a few seconds.

A deck in gaming vendors that has (almost) all the balatro jokers and their descriptions. They don't do anything, you have to calculate everything yourself.

I did a clown gimmick where I'd just find the associated item, I had Blueprint (from the ruck kit) Photograph (from a camera) and Gros Michel (banana)

I don't know if this is a good idea or a terrible idea (for ultra lowpop):

At ~10 players, everyone online can vote for whatever antags they want to be enabled/disabled. In the same way as a map vote.

That means you could have blob/flock, or solo nukie, or even gimmick antags like wrestler bird or others.

And it would only be things that the majority of people online actually want to potentially fight/see -- the normal antags like ling/vamp/arc/traitor etc would probably have to stay forced on

Traits for big & small hands, feet and body frame

I figure each would have some benefit, big feet might mean less likely to trip and big hands might mean better grip on things, while small feet could be quieter movement and small hands swifter item interactions

But really, the reason I think this could be interesting is to create more forensic evidence. By default, all uniforms, gloves, and shoes that spawn on station or are created in a manufacturer would be medium sized. However, when someone chooses these traits, their spawn gear will be sized for them. They can still wear medium sized gear, although it will appear tight or loose on them depending on what they picked, or very tight and very loose with some kind of penalty attached if it's one the extreme end.

Maybe there's a way to resize things, like using scissors and a suture on uniforms to tailor them?

big feet get a small chance to just crush whatever landmine / mousetrap assembly you step on instead of triggering it if you have the right shoes -- small feet have a chance to not trigger them instead

Courtroom Shift, where the whole station is a large courtroom.
Admins will present ban appeals to the "jury" (us players) and then we vote to forgive or keep banned.

Has to have an OBJECTION BUTTON for the "Defense attorney" and "Prosecutor"

Regardless of outcome, must result in the prosecutor or attorney dieing in a hilarious fashion.

Artifact records.  Annoy everybody with your atonal nonsense.

i wonder if this would be better suited for classic or RP servers - yet i love the idea of debating over bans and appeals

That courtroom idea is the idea of most questionable quality i think ive ever seen. There are hundreds of reasons that pop into my head on why doing something like that would be a terrible idea.
