I’m going Orange. I feel like all of the others would naturally follow.

    People here talk about doing crime with the black pill, but I would instead just be the perfect astronaut.

    Think about it, they could shoot you in space without having to think about how to get you back. No landing, no parachute, just a one way rocket launch.

    Space agencies would be practically forced to hire you on the spot.

    One time I was in Spain and I found 5 Australian dollars on the floor in a train station. I picked it up and pocketed it. The same day, I climbed a bell tower in some museum/remains and was chilling up there for half an hour, without anybody else coming up. Eventually another person came up and said hi. Recognised they were Australian so I asked them if they wanted 5 dollars and they said “…yeah?” And I gave it to them. No explanation.

    I laugh sometimes thinking of the story from their perspective, climbing a Spanish bell tower and meeting an English guy at the top who hands them 5AUD, like a NPC in an RPG.

      The problem being that if your are out of the country (and you can’t teleport back to anywhere else), you now need to explain to the authorities how you managed to get in without a movement record.

      Although it might be useful if you are a local and just need to dodge a bullet or escape a mugging by random teleportation.

    Quite a lot are picking Tirana.

    I suspect there’ll be some telefragging in the future.

    Black. I could do anything far away from Albania, teleport there, have three cctv cameras and 9 guys at a pub confirm was there having a drink with them in the evening the 23rd and could definitely not have been robbing a jewelery store in Copenhagen at the same time.

      You can rob one store. Afterwards you can’t enter the EU without interpol arresting you.

        Had to look it up. Albania is in the final stages of joining the EU anyway so that won’t be too much of a problem.

        They would have to figure out how I could be impossibly far away soon after the crime to a judge to get the warrant and then to a jury to get me convicted.

    The black teleport one. You rob a bank and then teleport away so you can’t be tracked? The means of escape is usually how they track you down. So, suddenly being able to teleport thousands of miles in a moment?

    Also, it’d be really useful for interstellar stuff. You only need enough fuel, food, and air to go one way. Strap me onto the rocket to Mars! I’d even hop back with huge sacks of Mars rocks to give to NASA. We’ve figured out the trek to Mars, its the getting back that’s been the problem.

    The teleportation is obviously most powerful in terms of exploits

    The dog could bring about the most technological advancement

    I think Ill go for the eye color change though, because its so uncommon to have different eye colors.
