Powergaming botanist report (Zishy)

also in reply to your last post. i didnt know you were a heretic. all i knew is that you tried to kidnap the chef and he was scared enough to stand with me in botany with a knife out while you were taunting him so maybe let that sink in for a moment. when people arent comfortable with you around and they communicated earlier and worked on lunchpacks for the crew together you might want to consider being stealthier or better at what you are doing as an antag

I think that’s stupid but if it means no rules are broken then I’d like the report to be closed.

rule 1 is still “you must roleplay”

context is always necessary. I don’t (and can’t) know the full story and this is very much a grey area. While following the letter of the rules, it is always possible to still go too far.

(I was considering encounter 1 to be the time the chef was attacked those 10 min prior aswell, however the chef took refuge and seems to have asked for help)

At the time this occurred the cook had left botany and been killed by me possibly 5-10 minutes earlier since they were alone, if that helps with context. I’d also say the cook being attacked the first time was closer to 20 minutes earlier in hindsight, but I could be wrong.

I think it would be best for everyone to stop flooding this report with various arguments and words, and instead wait for an admin. Getting this report to 30+ posts is not going to help at all, and will be more work for the assigned admin.

I don’t believe continuing this conversation will yield anything besides hostility.

Locking it until it’s processed.

Alright, a couple things to get out of the way first:

  1. Preparing/arming yourself is powergaming unless there is a direct threat to your self or your department, or a justified red alert is confirmed (R2.2)
  2. No 2, I just thought it would be cooler in a list.

Anyways, to the logs:

I would say command properly escalated to red alert following a very real threat against the station was noticed, meaning crew may begin to arm themselves after this point.

Blake Prescott, Assistant working in the Kitchen, is lured by Gage Kimple into maintenance and almost got killed by le antag, but other powers that may be prevented such, so they manage to get dragged off by a medical cyborg and healed. This will be important later.

And for my take (spoilers)

Findings

Blake Prescott was attacked by Gage Kimple but saved, meaning they remember that Gage is “bad” and reports this to medical borg, who reports it to sec.
Gage attempts to approach Black Prescott after the fact in hydroponics, to which they have a perfectly reasonable reaction and attempt to threaten retaliation, Gage is somehow removed from the situation (I’m still a little confused but logs aren’t perfect).
Command properly raised threat level to red meanwhile, meaning botany is now allowed to grow defensive plants.
Gage comes back for round 2 (or 3 :thinking: ), but this time botany fights back and throws the banana.

There was no power gaming that I can tell, though the Assistant, HoP, and the likes could probably RP better than just saying “Gage Kimple Bad!”
