My OPG allows me to eliminate one color from the check. I was going to save it for brigging/killing one of the Cylons if we had the chance, but I could also attempt to use it to save you from being brigged, Tigh. But if you're not too worried (at the very least, you can still work the Quorum from the Brig, albeit less efficiently), I will save it.
Oh, and whew. If Tigh is brigged, the Admiralty passes to Kat, not one of the Cylons. So I'm thinking I should save my OPG to use later?
BSG
Yeah, this is not that critical a check. It would be nice not to be embriggened, but it won't be a disaster of the highest order if it happens.
BSG
Let's do this. I have passes on further interrupts from everyone. The Chief has no cards, and Kat passes on playing cards; Cally is up next. I have COs from Tigh and Tory.
BSG
I'm in a lecture right now, but Tigh passes too, leaving Tory as the only one playing cards into this check (aside from Destiny, of course). I'll wrap up the results once I can get to a computer. (I could just announce the outcome, but where's the fun in that?)
BSG
Ok, here we go:
Destiny:
2 cards
Chief:
0 cards
Kat:
0 cards
Cally:
0 cards
Tigh:
0 cards
Tory:
1 card
Yellow, Green, Purple and Blue are positive; only Red and Treachery are negative. Cards played:
At Any Cost 5
Evasive Maneouvre 1
By Your Command 1
Tally: 5 - 2 = 3. Fail!
Tigh roams free!
Looks like Destiny really hosed the pro-Brig faction there. Bad Destiny, using up all the water like that. Tory's crisis is:
Water Shortage
President's Choice
Pradmiral Tigh, when you're ready, please post your choice.
BSG
We'll be taking
Option 2.
I
discard LS-1 and AAC-4.
Miss, basestar, miss!
BSG
Starbuck: 0 cards
There is no Starbuck! There is only Zool Chief!
Looks like Destiny really hosed the pro-Brig faction there.
Huh, yeah, what the hell was that? Tory, you are terrible at brigging people. Absolutely terrible. This time, I thank you for your ineptitude.
We'll be taking Option 2.
Good choice. Suck it, Tory!
Miss, basestar, miss!
Oh, yeah. This could be bad.
BSG
Pradmiral Tigh has chosen the discard option. Tory must also discard three cards. Tory, when you're ready, please post your choice.
