Well, I wouldn't mind brigging someone and keeping Morale, seeing as how I get to decide who gets brigged.
Of course YOU like brigging; you're the only person safe from being brigged! I just don't think any of us are really calling out for a brigging, unless you would like to voice some suspicions. I have small suspicions, not large ones, not enough to justify a brigging at this point.
all my cards are positive for the check so I could theoretically play them all and not be risking losing anything.
But then you've wasted all your cards and, possibly, some of ours. If Kat pulls a skill check Crisis, we'd be in a bad position.
BSG
I have extremely squishy suspicions only.
I don't see playing cards in an attempt to save Morale as wasting them even if the attempt fails. Not that I am burning to have you choose Option 1, just that I won't be flat-footed and planless if you do.
BSG

Okay.
I don't see playing cards in an attempt to save Morale as wasting them even if the attempt fails.
I guess that's what cards are for, after all. Mostly.
By my count, Destiny will almost certainly have at least one positive card and very likely two, so if we decide on the check, I don't think you need to go all in.
BSG

Just to be clear, if you pass the check, the Admiral
may
choose to brig someone but is not obliged to. (He may also, if he wishes, choose to brig himself. It's what they least expect!)
BSG
I can help with this check.
BSG
But do you think we should do it?
BSG
We do have a lot of Morale right now, so we could afford to just toss it away. Failing it will cost us the cards we play plus those in the Admiral's hand, and we will still lose the Morale.
I have my suspicions about who we could brig, but they are vague enough that I'm not ready to act on them.
I guess that means that I'm in favor of Option 2.
BSG

Yeah, this is where I'm at too. And without a clear target, I'm afraid to hand the Admiral the option of brigging someone human, even accidentally.
I also realized that even if Destiny is the right color, it could still be 0-value, so perhaps I can't trust Destiny as much as I'd hoped.
I was waiting to hear from Tory, but with Kat and Cally in favor of Option 2, I'm going to choose
Option 2
so we can move along.
BSG
Starbuck chooses option 2; Morale falls by 1. Finally, the jump track advances.
That concludes Starbuck's turn. Kat starts her turn in Sickbay, and therefore draws only one card. Kat, please post which colour you would like.
