Say that to benos... Oh wait! They can only try to be competitive by racking up kills. No RP, no rules, no anything. Whole argument is invalid just because other side exist. How to not be focused on making "mechanical/combat" gameplay experience for players better when entire side (25% each round for sure) can't (is not allowed/don't want/etc) do anything else?
There is as much as you can RP with ANOTHER exactly the same round. It's not normal SS13 station round where Janitor might be traitor, or that maintenance mime, who could join book club, or shapeshifting beast in grey jumpsuit.
As much as I hate Commanders with stupid quirk, I can atleast understand them that it's the only way to bring something fresh to the CiC and Briefing.
