Tory, please indicate whether you've decided to tank as well, since that will determine what I play. I don't want to sabotage an actual attempt to pass!

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

No, I'll go with the will of the people. I play no cards, since that will give me a chance at keeping the positive one, should we need to discard.

Ah, I hadn't thought of that! I suppose that's good.
I play no cards. I wonder if by some miracle Destiny will give us two 6s to pass this check. Wouldn't that be something?

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
BSG
Kat is up next. (Kat did submit COs, but the situation is a little ambiguous, so I'll get her to confirm.)

Ok, I reckon I can implement Kat's COs. I have orders from Cally too:
Destiny:
2 cards
Tory:
0 cards
Starbuck:
0 cards
Kat:
0 cards
Cally:
0 cards
Tigh:
Admiral Tigh to finish.

Fine. No cards.

Everyone passes, which is probably just as well. Destiny reveals:
Run Interference 5
Calculations 4
Tally: -9. EPIC FAIL!
Apparently this haunting was less Casper and more Poltergeist. Everyone discards one random card to get out of appearing in the sequel:
Tigh: Broadcast Location 1
Tory: Broadcast Location 1
Starbuck: God's Plan 2
Kat: Special Destiny 2
Cally: Guts and Initiative 2
Wow. That flushed out a lot of Treachery. You can imagine for yourselves the short woman wandering around Galactica and declaring, "This house is clean".
Turn finishes with the basestar in Sector 3 popping out a heavy raider, and the jump track advancing by one. That concludes Tigh's turn. Tory's cards are going out. President Tory, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

Wow, that worked out surprisingly well. To your health, Starbuck.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
BSG
Whew! That was about as good as it could have been, considering. Ok. So we've still got a sick Kat, but it's something of a problem because I can't XO her out of sickbay, and Starbuck's turn will directly precede hers.
But without an XO I'm somewhat limited in what I can do, so I'll try to get the most bang for my turn's buck.
I play CS-5 to convert my movement phase to action. For my first action, I activate the President's Office to draw 1 Quorum card. I then pause to see if I want to draw an additional card or play one for the second half of my first action.
