Job specific traitor objectives
#8
People are forgetting that traitor/crew objectives boil down to a yes/no state check at the end of the round because of how they're tracked (as far as I know). "Do you have [x] sunglasses in your inventory," "Is [x] dead," "Do you have [your own butt] on your head AND are you on the shuttle," etc. While feeding a few dudes to Security in cake form as a Chef gets you mad style points, BYOND is not gonna track that for an objective. It also probably won't be able to track custom forms of death without a ton of workarounds. A lot of the fun in traitorous activities after you get basic competency at the role comes from taking bare-bones objectives and spinning them into stylish, entertaining, ridiculous schemes. Or ignoring your objectives entirely in favor of unrelated stylish, entertaining, ridiculous schemes.

I may be wrong about all this since I Am Not A Coder but I'm just vaguely remembering what was said when crew objectives got implemented and people had millions of suggestions that got shot down along these lines. I would, however, like to applaud whoever semi-recently made "Steal [x] brains" an objective and wholeheartedly suggest a few more new ones in general to spice things up a bit.
