Dunno if this is already internally happening, but keeping track of statistics for things such as jobs picked at latejoin, or jobs actually given to people during roundstart, etc. can act as a useful reference to where the game currently lies in terms of job balance.
Of course, statistics aren't an endall beall indicator of what people find fun or boring, especially since during roundstart you may not always get the job you want _exactly_, and the suicide verb doesn't account for all instances of self-harm spessmen can do, making that a hard (but possible!) statistic to keep track of.
Though it would also be fun to know how many farts total happen per round on average, and the difference between a roleplay vs classic server, or how many antags statistically get their objectives done etc.
