I can't math. I often feel like you guys are playing this ame on a whole other level than me but I feel that way about poker and still manage to win so I really appreciate if someone else can work out the chances that destiny actually spiked this check.
Because why would a cylon spike a brigging check? You're very likely to get yourselkf brigged that way.

A failed check would have Brigged Tigh.

Zero. Remember that check we tanked that made us discard a random skill card and we all lost Treachery except for Cally? Destiny played Blue. Remember that check that had a Raider activation that took out two civvies? One Blue card was in that check (and it was POSITIVE for the check), and Cally didn't play anything. I honestly don't remember whether I had Blue in my hand at the time, but I didn't play it. It was Destiny.
BSG
I was the only one in danger of being brigged if we had failed this check, fwtw.
Destiny definitely could not have played both Blues, as a Blue card showed up in the Tanked check earlier, and I am confident that Destiny had no Blue to play though I could not, at this point, prove it beyond a shadow of a doubt without doing a lot more work than I am prepared to do.
In short, I am for brigging Cally now, and if it is a horrible mistake we'll probably find out pretty quickly.

As a cylon it is such a delicate balancing act to mess with the humans without arousing suspicions. I don't think I've seen anyone but P-C pull it off well.
I should probably feel slighted here. Yep. Definitely slighted.

I'm glad you agree, since you can make brigging Cally easier and I don't have any positive cards for an Admiral's Quarters check.

Are we sure about this, guys? It's a big step.
Okay, I
discard a CP1
to get my Presidential ass back to Galactica to see what you are all up to down here. I
move to Admiral's Quarters
and I
activate them to brig Cally.
I hope this is right.
BSG
Admiral's Quarters has been activated. This is a skill check; possible interrupts are IC, SR, Reckless interrupts. Everyone, please pass or play. You can also send me COs for your play into the check itself. Starbuck will play first, Tory finishes up.
BSG
Pass on interrupts.
I'm not sure this is the best idea when we could be trying to draw more repair cards. We have a little time before Cally's next turn, maybe we'll be able to brig her without activating the Admiral's quarters. And if it turns out she's not a cylon we won't have wasted a turn and cards brigging a human.
BSG
I, um, wave a magic wand and
reduce the difficulty by 3,
I guess? Is there anything else involved in that?
