That's too bad then. Now I feel bad for trying to elect the recruiter power over to me, since I already have a role power.
Speaking of which, I got clarification on what my new replacement "turn into a rat" power does:
- It'd probably make me harder to kill by running away
- I could fit into small spaces
- I could authenticate to a system that only responds to rats
- Other stuff I can come up with
One of these uses seems more important than the others, so I got the clarification:
In rat form, it's pretty hard to kill me because I am small and can run away quickly. So, I can respond "I do not die" to someone trying to kill me. I think normally as a rat and can still talk with people, but I can't use a computer (though I can use a phone). I'm slow and so I have to walk at a heel-toe pace. Transforming into a rat takes the same amount of time as saying, "I turn into a rat" so I can turn into a rat in response to someone coming up like they're going to kill me. If I'm already a rat though and they try to kill me, I still don't die, but apparently neither of us actually sees the other because rats are bad at recognizing people (AKA I'm supposed to meta away that they tried to kill me).
Overall this actually seems more useful than the portion of my role power it replaced, so I'm not sure why Tuan was evilly laughing via haiku at me when he pmed me about it.
