===[[File:Sword.gif]] [[Traitor]]===
The most common game mode in secret. In Traitor, one or more crew members are Syndicate agents and are given a PDA Uplink to provide them with [[Syndicate Items|useful tools]] to help them complete their goal. The Crew must find out who the traitors are and stop them from reaching their goal. The game ends when the [[Emergency Shuttle]] leaves.<br>

Traitor objectives are usually one of the following:

Line 20: Line 22:
* Be the only one on the Emergency Shuttle when it leaves or just escape alive.
* Be the only one on the Emergency Shuttle when it leaves or just escape alive.
If the Traitors can meet their objectives and are present and alive on a pod or the shuttle when it leaves, they win. However, being in the Shuttle Brig (marked with red flooring) does not count toward escaping and will cause the traitor to fail. Note that traitors win individually - they may band together and work as a team, but it is not required for them to succeed.

===[[File:Nuke.gif]] [[Syndicate guide|Nuclear Emergency]]===
A team of five Syndicate operatives has been sent on a mission to completely destroy the station with a nuclear bomb. However, they must get the Nuclear Authentication Disk from the station itself in order to arm the bomb, and the crew (or at least the captain) will be doing everything in their power to stop the attackers from getting the disk. The operatives have access to the same items Traitors get in order to complete their mission, as well as Pinpointers that will allow them to hunt for the Disk.

===[[File:rev.png]] [[Revolution]]===
===[[File:rev.png]] [[Revolution]]===
A small cadre of crew members have had enough of the command staff's bullshit so it's time to revolt! Revolution Leaders (of which there will be one to three) are supported by [[The Syndicate]] and have been trained to use [[Flash]]es to brainwash the crew to join their cause. When a Revolution Leader uses a flash on someone who isn't loyalty implanted (all security members are implanted) or a Head of Staff, they will be converted to the Revolution and will have a red R mark on them visible to all revolutionaries. Note that Rev Leaders can use any flash to convert people, not just the one they start with. The shuttle can be called but will never arrive during this game mode.

A unique /tg/ server mode! A vile magic cult of brainwashed acolytes has infiltrated the station, and it is up to security and the chaplain to stop them. Quite similar to revolution, with some exceptions:

*Since cultists dont know all words required for creation of runes, they need to find these words out through experimentation or get from their horrible deity by sacrificing people. As such, the crew has some time before the cult starts spreading.

===[[File:Sword.gif]][[File:Changeling.gif]] [[Traitor]] + [[Changeling]]===
The station has been infiltrated by both [[Changeling]]s and [[Traitor]]s! Although rare, it is possible to be both a traitor and a changeling. Traitor-changelings would be given 4 objectives to complete, but can use both a syndicate uplink and their changeling abilities to accomplish them.

In practice this is the mode where everyone spawns cloaks and revolvers and gives themselves all the wizard spells, then everyone kills each other on sight causing a massive bitchy argument in OOC for half an hour until someone goes onto the forums to get an admin to restart the server/ban everyone else for being giant griffins.

Like secret only it tells you the game mode at the beginning and can pick the shit modes also. There's no reason to vote for it.
