Well. She was kinda the real cap at the time. She was appointed captain, not acting captain, by the previous one. Plus, if the captain hadn’t gone for the baton first Kate probably wouldn’t’ve went for the disabler
again the captain can’t make the chaplain ‘appointed captain’ that is not how it works

Is there anything in rulings that said that the captain can’t appoint a new one? Yes, it should’ve gone to a head, but is there anything stopping them?

use common sense is a rule did you know
I understand that the captain shouldn’t have given it to kate, but there was no main threat to the station. If it was blueshift, then of course that would be an insanely dumb move. Their reasoning was likely “I gotta go, there’s no threat to the station, so appointing someone I believe would handle the job well would be good” and as he said, he viewed the Chaplain as the “QM” of service, so he would’ve thought they were trustworthy. That seems like, decent sense. At least he didn’t give it to an assistant

which is a completely non sensical excuse since the ‘QM’ is an actual role and the HOP is the head of service
and the cap did say there was a HOS and guess who would be acting cap???
the HEAD OF A DEPARTMENT
He gave reasoning for why he didn’t do that. Again, he probably should have, but he had his reasons
invalid arguement here, the captain can promote who ever he wants to captain, the COC only applies if he dies/is fired.

proof?
bottom text and such
the proof is there is no ruling on who he can or cannot promote; in the absence of a ruling or rule preventing him from doing so, it is implied it is ok for him to promote whoever he wants.
the crew can still react to a shit hire though obviously, but it is his resposnabilty.

that is not proof and again falls under the common sense and RP rule please do try again
:kanye:
then he captain promoting someone as he needs to go sleep falls also under common sense, he just saw me fit for the job and gave me his tittle.

the OG captain is literally in this thread saying he gave it to kate because they had sene them around the station helping a lot?
it was RP’d ICly, the late join captain just didnt see any of it, didnt bother to get the context of the round and iniaited combat with kate.

no promoting the chaplain to be acting cap when there’s a head alive isn’t common sense sorry
that still doesn’t justify him giving the position to the chaplain over a head?
proof? 20wordssssssss
yes the THE captain that promoted me broke the rules , not me.
However I see that RP doesn’t matter when it’s one of your metafriends and such I will stop arguing seeing as you can’t bring any solid arguments
Cap himself said he didn’t want to give the only other head at the time, HoS, captainship since security was heavily understaffed
