Some notes:
Yes, i did make a mistake. Mulbery I'm sorry. :'(
Regarding ranks:
They played a more important part in earlier versions of the setup. The point of the Hacker was that they could attempt to find the highest ranks among PRs. Certain roles were assigned ranks. Captain of course came with the rank of captain, and the Executive Officer role came with the rank of Commander. The Chief Engineer, Chief Medical Officer, and Operations Officer, were all guaranteed some form of officer rank. All remaining ranks were assigned randomly.
General Quarters:
All enlisted ranks were assigned a department, and placed in a PM with the rest of their department and their department head. All the remaining officers had their own chat, except for hip (if he were still alive), who would have been able to choose which pm he got.
Speaking of hip...
His role was only half 3rd party. Had the captain been killed, his role would have had a win condition similar to that of survivor. Had the captain promoted him, he would have fulfilled his win condition, and been converted to a town sided role.
