We have implemented the removal of the metashield on all Wizden servers. Check the rules in game, or click the link here to see the new rule that replaces it. In effect, nothing is metashielded anymore, all crew is aware of all possible antagonists and their gear, and we do permit “soft cannon” in between rounds of prior shifts as long as you don’t say who explicitly was the antagonist. This rule instead focuses more on EORG (End of Round Grief) prep, metagrudging, metafriending, and information gained while dead.
See rule 2.4 for the changes in detail.
