Implement Prop Rerolling?

The public version of the PH plugin has added the ability for prop players to reroll and get a new random prop once during setup in a round, if they're unhappy with the first random prop.

So before implementing this, I figured we could run a poll to get people's opinions on this feature. Should we add it?

du it

Da.

please god no
even though i dont play here anymore i just dont want this server turning into an even bigger cesspool of aids and vomit

edit : for clarity, this will break the mod. oh wow that guy got a giant rock wow so funny moment how will he be creative and hide that

what ever happened to working with what you're given?

I'm gonna stay neutral for now.

Yes, god forbid someone doesn't want an instant death prop.

but that would be the fun/point/challenge in prophunt...why deal wit dat when u could b a predictable bucket, hay pile, or tv???

The bad props are in there for a reason, if this is implemented we might as well get rid of every "difficult" prop in every map. Bad props force you to be more creative in finding a hiding place, and if you're found more often as those props, it gives you some practice running as a scout. Just because it makes you work a bit harder doesn't mean you have to complain to the admins, it's part of the goddamn game.

Remember that !reroll wouldn't be a guarantee for a player to get a better prop such as a bucket or anything. I think in our implementation we'd also allow you to randomly reroll the exact same prop you already have.

i voted for Retroll

Yeah, I was gonna point out that as a possibility.

And since it's still completely random and most maps have several horrible props, you're taking a chance using the one and only reroll you have. There is literally no problem here.

The only bad prop on switcheroo is train. Let's say there are about 15-20 props on switcheroo, that's a 5-6.7% chance of getting train. It's really unlikely you're going to get train again if you reroll.

I'm not for this, nor am I against it. Half of the fun is the 'Oh my, that prop' part. Rerolling would be nice, though I think to make it really good would be to add the possibility of rerolling a troll prop that is so obvious as a troll / elephant in the room sort of thing like the error prop or something.
A point for consideration - other donators who play and donate in order to be able to change prop - there'll be less incentive for them to do so.

Good.

donators shouldn't get propmenu anyway
