MsgName
This message allows the client to query for a string update, and allows the game server to trigger a string command on the client. In later versions of the client, the purpose of this message is mostly superseded by MsgAction, which adds an optional string parameter. Even in lower patches, a few types are unimplemented since they overlap with functionality in other messages, such as deleting the role.
Fireworks are an interesting type in this packet, as the way the client processes a fireworks request is to make the string an even number of letters, iterate through every two characters, and spawn a firework at a random coordinate near the center of the screen for those two characters.
