Steps to reproduce

It being admin only doesn't help when dylan gives people cancer every round he's on.

Cancer has been used 7 times in the last two weeks, all in the same day, and dylan did it 3 of those times. Serwind did it 4.

That said, jesus christ remove this from prayers and shit. Put it in the secrets menu if you want but this is dumb griff shit and I've seen enough.

About an hour and a bit ago, it was used multiple times.

When it was found that surgery was no good, they just beat the afflicted heads in and cloned them, no chems applied or anything.

Why take the long route when you can take the short route? And taking out the shorter route isn't balancing, it's making what was 'murder if not helped by another' into 'You're guaranteed to die'

[Probe1]

Excuse me. I mixed up the days. 4 times today.

@dylanstrategie Fix it

[gbasood]

Apparently dylan INTENTIONALLY removed surgery, and you need to do chemo or limb removal to cure it now. Because he's an asshole.

[Intigracy]

Well yeah, the OP linked the PR that he did it in multiple times.

[9600bauds]

This is just so fucking stupid

[carshalash]

Is this a joke?

[ghost]

What gets me is how quickly it was merged, same day at the least, whereas others that are less questionable have been left up for months until they become incompatible.

[gbasood]

Cancer was up there for at LEAST a week, probably more In fact, it was created 12 days ago and merged 4 days ago

[ghost]

@gbasood The PR to remove the surgery wasn't

[Probe1]

i'm sorry that we didn't follow every PR and assumed the collaborators wouldn't merge dylan adding fucking inoperable cancer into the game so he can grief people.

The fuck.

No.

Bad.

[Tokanova]

Revert Dylan code when?

HOW TO MAKE CURES FOR CANCER: Small tumors: Operate on by surgery. Large tumors: Use phalanximine until smaller tumor, then operate. (or amputate) THERE FIXED EZPZ VALIDZ SECURED LET'S GO HOME

[ghost]

Actually, the idea is the exact opposite

• Chemotherapy for small tumors, especially brand new ones if some moron comes in with a metastased lump
• Amputation for xbox hueg cancer you wouldn't be able to get rid off otherwise
• You can also use chemotherapy on big tumors, but you either need to massively OD them on chemotherapy chems or have them come in every five minutes for scanning
