Proposal: Backup Brains

Add the following Machine to rule 16:
Insta-Brain-o-Matic [Sickbay] Any Crewmember who is pulling the levers on the Insta-Brain-o-Matic may switch service groups if: ey have have not already attempted to do so in the last week; ey post a GNDT comment "Insta-Brain-o-Matic: G DICEX DICE5" where G is the service group ey wish to switch to and X is eir Logic; the result of eir DICEX roll is 20 or greater; and the result of DICE5 is not 5.

If the result of the DICEX roll is less than 20 the attempt to generate a new brain fails. If the result of the DICE5 roll is 5, a brain is generated successfully but the operation is not successful and the Crewmember's Vitality becomes "Dead". If both rolls are successful the Crewmember has endured the brain transplant and can switch service groups, however eir memory is wiped and ey must reset eir Logic to the value for a new Crewmember.


So this one's a long shot but I figure it's a more thematic approach to changing service groups. I think it should be possible but hard.
