Overview
Emotes are short animations a player can use to express various body-language signals in-game. Some of them are purely for fun, and some are actually useful, such as the coin toss, the die, and the "rock/paper/scissors" to make decisions. Several of the emotes are accompanied by a sound, which is noted in the description below.
Emotes are called using the /emote slash command. It can be abbreviated /e, /em, or /me, and all four variations can be used in binds. In addition, when typing in the chat box, if the first thing typed is going to be the emote, /e may be replaced with the semicolon (;) and the name of the emote. For example, to burp you could either type /e burp or ;burp on the chat command line.
Some emotes have synonyms which carry out the same animation. Synonyms are listed in the "Aliases" column next to the more common word used as the emote in the list below.
Some of the commands are still bugged and not told at any point to players in-game, they do not match up with the emotes list in the popup button to the right of where you enter text. These are:
• "chat" of which /e chat does actually not exist, it is /e talk
• "giggle" of which /e giggle does not exist but is actually /e laugh2
Crossarms is currently the only emote Stance that matches up with what players are told in the emotes list:
• "neutral stance" for which /e neutral, /e neutralstance or /e stanceneutral do not do anything and is actually /e idle1
• "centre stance" for which /e centre, /e centrestance or /e stancecentre do not do anything and is actually /e idle2
• "hands on hips" for which /e handsonhips, /e handsonhipsstance or /e stancehandsonhips do not do anything and is actually /e akimbo
• the Going Rogue stances are similar to what is told but reversed in order, they are described as "Villain Stance 1", "Villain Stance 2", "Hero Stance 1" and "Hero Stance 2" but typing along those lines will give you nothing: the commands are actually /e stancevillain1, /e stancevillain2, /e stancehero1 and /e stancehero2

Costume Change Emotes
Costume Change Emotes will change a character's costume while performing an obscuring animation (usually a flash). As with the costume change slash command, replace "#" with the numerical value of the costume slot to be changed to, from 0-4. To use the costume change emotes, the "/cce # <emote>" command needs to be used, e.g.
- /cce 3 CCBackflip
Notes:
- Costume change emotes are not case sensitive. CCBackflip works the same as ccbackflip or CCBACKFLIP - they are listed in this format here for visualization only.

Notes
- Although the protest signs are unreadable in the game, in the graphic file that is used as the texture, they are readable. They all say some variation of the following in a handwritten font (misspellings are deliberate):
- We are generaly discontent with our current situation & would like to show our discontentiveness publicly! (If that's OK with you)
- Emotes with "Flying" in the flying column have an alternate animation when used while flying (usually with dangling legs). Emotes with "Standing" will perform the normal standing animation while flying, treating the empty air as solid ground. Emotes with "No" in the flying column will not execute while flying.
