+request Wed Jan 18 Cygnus
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Syntax: +request <Subject>=<Questions, Requests, etc>
+request is a method of getting information about whatever, IC or OOC,
back from the admin. This is primarily for use when you don't know which
staffer to go to, and/or it's just a general inquiry that no staffer online
knows the answer to. Obviously +request is not anonymous.
Requests go to a list that the admin can view and respond to via @mail
or page.

fingerskills Wed Feb 08 Cygnus
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Per request, setting a fingerskills attribute on yourself to '1' will make
skills show up with +finger. That is, with the attribute set your +fingering
of others will show skills.

+lastactivity Sun Feb 12 Cygnus
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Syntax: +lastactivity
This command lists your IC active and idle times for the previous week,
along with your OOC active and idle times. Good for keeping track of times on
FC/EFCs.

Soccer Changes Wed Feb 22 Cygnus
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- +kickoff now gives you control of the ball rather than having the ref kick it
in. When your team is scored upon, your team (whichever player wants it) gets
to +kickoff and take possession. This gives you a quick chance to even the
score that doesn't rely on getting lucky with the kickoff. The ref flips a
coin to see who gets to kickoff at the beginning of the match.
- Scoring a goal resets anyone tackled and automatically causes the game clock
to count down by one. This can mean there won't be enough time to score, but
c'est la vie.

- A pass that goes awry will no longer have a chance of being picked up by the
guy that passed it originally.
- When tackling the player with the ball, there is no longer a chance the
person that was tackled will pick up the ball again.
- Changed the tackling messages to make it a bit clearer what is taken into
account for it.

Division Organization Code Wed Mar 22 Cygnus
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
+org is being replaced. It served us well. This will hopefully be
simpler to use and set up.
Global Commands
+roster - Shows you your faction's divisions.
+roster <division> - Detailed look at a division.
+roster <faction> - Shows you another faction's divisions.
+roster <faction>=<division> - Detailed look at another faction's division.
Fachead Commands
+division <person>=<division 1|division 2|division N> - Sets someone's
division(s).
+rank <person>=<rank> - Sets someone's rank.
+title <person>=<title> - Sets someone's title.
+title/default <rank>=<title> - Sets a default title for a rank.
+division/desc <division>=<desc> - Sets a description for a division.
Hunter Fachead Commands
+hunter/reorg - Randomly puts Hunters into divisions with names picked out of
the dictionary.
Note that things like +finger, +efinger, +orders, getting onto the CoC
channel, etc still use the old stuff. This'll be until facheads have a chance
to go through their ranks. For finished examples of factions, check out STARS,
the Irregular faction, or Repliforce.

Misc Updates Tue Mar 28 Cygnus
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- +finger, +efinger, fwho, awho, +assign, +orders, and the CoC channel
permissions have been switched to the new roster system. All divisions someone
is a member of and all ranks and titles that they hold can be found in
+efinger.
- For both assigning and viewing someone else's orders, you must hold a higher
rank in your faction than they do.
- You can no longer jury-rig, first-aid, or refuel someone if either you or
your target has either a force field or reflect system up.
- If someone successfully covers you, you will now be set 'in-combat' anyway.
- Nerfed regen Scrappers.

+cookie Wed Apr 12 Cygnus
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
You now need to type in someone's full name in order to +cookie them.
Aliases and partial matches will no longer work. This won't help people from
typing '+cookie shield' while trying to get Shield Shellfish, but it should
help the Blizzard brothers and the like.

- +refuel will now set both you and your target in combat (and will therefore
work properly if it's done as the first action of combat).
- Hopefully fixed a bug where you could get too much WE in the first round of
combat if you were attacked last during your previous combat.
- All travel ability exit locks have been removed from: Underwater Rooms, Sky
Rooms, Water Surface Rooms, Space Rooms, and Underground Rooms.
- In a Space Room, if you do not have Zero-G, your damage output will be
reduced by 30%.
- In an Underwater Room, if you do not have either Swim or Submerge, your
damage output will be reduced by 30%. If you have only one of those abilities,
your damage will be reduced by only 15%. If you have both, you are unaffected.
- Added the '+mate' command. It does what you'd expect.

forwardcookie Wed Apr 26 Cygnus
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
forwardcookie is an attribute settable by staff. It causes any cookies
going to the character to be forwarded to another character instead. This is
so temps can get cookied without revealing their super secret demon spawn
alts. Temps, contact your friendly neighborhood adminner to have this
attribute set on you. Kudos to Buster Rod G (and his super secret demon spawn
alt) for the idea.

+cover all day long."

------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- +rhelp, +freq, +name, +rtitle, +rwho, +radioswap, +hack, +encrypt, and
+decrypt are now available while OOC.
- The Neo Arcadian Laboratory, Wily's Garage, and the Hunter Workshop now have
+mechcost and will randomize all stats to *5.
- The Neo Arcadian Biomonster, Maverick Hunter HunterMachine, and Maverick
Giant Mechaniloid no longer take Ride Armour piloting stats into account. They
use +control now, not +pilot. (The Wilymachine still acts like a Ride Armour,
and the Repliforce troops never did).
- +control and +command will turn off reflect, blink, and forcefield. This is
to avoid getting stuck if the ability is on but then gets removed.
- All Variable Workshops now have +reset available to them, which resets the
object's health. Useful for when you lower their endurance. The object must be
in the same room as the workshop.
- Added +help pot for construction commands and removed +reflect/on as
potential Last Action since it no longer takes up your action.
- +cover will no longer work on objects that are not combat_ok. FOILED!
- Whenever you get a multiple of 100 cookies, an automatic +request will be
generated and sent. You can still brag about it, though.
