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

BSG

Ooh, that IS clever. I'll have to remember that for when I'm a Cylon. GOOD CYLON THINKING, CYLON.

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.

BSG

We have an SR-3 on the check; it is now difficulty 4 GPB. I have passes on interrupts from everyone else. The check begins:

Destiny: 2 cards
Starbuck:
Kat:
Cally: COs received
Tigh:
Tory:

I play 1 card.

By the way, Tory, if you play Blue, you can prove you didn't spike the last check.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

BSG

Do I need to play into this check? I have one card left and it's a pretty big one. I'd like to save it if I can.

Oh, you weren't going to play it?? I thought that's why you were playing SR, so you could play that card. I based my play on that assumption. If it's a card you want to save (and I can hazard a guess as to what it is), then keeping it may be wise, although playing it almost guarantees a pass. You can abstain if you want.

In that case, Tory, please play your Blue card if you can so my play isn't wasted.

I wish I could base my CO's off Tory's play.

Brig Cally again on your turn. Then you can!

I'm waiting to hear if Tory can play blue, but I did leave COs indicating I will play mine if Tory doesn't.

One problem here, per the secrecy rules all you can say about your play into a skill check is whether your contribution is high or low (or medium, if playing multiple cards). You can't actually specify colour.

Edit: you can alternatively ask Tory's (or anyone else's) advice as to whether your contribution is needed.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

BSG

I think you can save your card, Kat.
