ANIMAL KING TAKEOVER!
Which is to say, anyone interested in Portal 2 co-op?
BSG
All orders are in. We have:
Destiny:
2 cards
Starbuck:
1 card
Kat:
0 cards
Cally:
2 cards
Tigh:
1 card
Tory:
2 cards
Cards:
Executive Order 2
Declare Emergency 5
Trust Instincts 0
Establish Network 0
Consolidate Power 1
Investigative Committee 4
Investigative Committee 4
Preventative Policy 5
Tally: 7 - 14 = -7. However, the Trust Instincts in the check triggers, adding two more cards from Destiny. New cards:
Protect the Fleet 0
Special Destiny 2
Brings the tally to -9. The check was not Reckless, so the Treachery card has no effect. There is not 3 Piloting strength in the check, so nor does Protect the Fleet.
Check fails! Cally remains free. Tigh is unhappy and accuses the tribunal of:
Unfair Bias
Skill Check (12 YGP)
(As opposed to his Cylon Hatred, which he describes as "like, totally fair bias").
The usual interrupts: IC, SR, Reckless. Everyone, please pass or play.
BSG
Well, that is just a fascinating outcome.
Pass on interrupts
BSG
Administrative note: the cards added by Trust Instincts exhausted the Destiny deck. I've created a new one. This exhausted the Tactics deck. I've reshuffled the discards.
BSG
Yeah, someone other than me wanted to keep me out of the brig.
BSG
I have no idea what's going on. The only way I can help with the check is to make blue positive.
BSG
I think maybe you should hold on to your final card, Kat.
BSG
That's...not what I thought would happen with that check. Huh.
Okay, I would like to save my skin and Galactica's, so I play IC3. I actually intended to play it last round, but I didn't remember I'd drawn it until too late. (I also missed the play blue conversation, so I'm sorry I didn't make your card count, Starbuck.) Let's see if we can figure out what's going on.
BSG
Yeah, that check was a shock, I really expected to be an innocent person trapped in the brig.
BSG
What...the frak. Kat, I wish you'd played your card now.
Yeah, someone other than me wanted to keep me out of the brig.
And based on my count of Destiny and the colors we all draw, I think it was Tory. So I am now operating under the assumption that you're both Cylons. Or that Tory believes you're human, but I don't know why she would have gone ahead with the brigging.
I have no idea what's going on. The only way I can help with the check is to make blue positive.
Oh, I was wrong about what I thought your card was, then. Still, I now wish you'd played it.
(I also missed the play blue conversation, so I'm sorry I didn't make your card count, Starbuck.)
I'm sorry too.
I pass on interrupts and can't help at all on this check.
Tigh, would you support me if I tried to brig Cally again on my turn? You're the one person who sounds as sure as I am about her metal soul.
