call me jacki; zuisa is an internet nick from ancient times =)

SO, sorry to interrupt at the BSG-ing going on here, but anyone out there playing Words With Friends on their phone? I need more friends to play it with!

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

Just to confirm a few rules issues:

1. It takes four damage tokens to destroy Pegasus. It currently has two damage tokens.

2. You may not move to the Brig (or Sickbay) voluntarily.

3. You may not initiate a Brig check on behalf of someone else. Only the player trying to escape the Brig can start that check.

Finally, two courses of action that have been suggested are taking a shot at the basestar or activating FTL Control, both of which involve a die roll. Anyone with an SP or Calcs, feel free to send me COs as to whether you pass or play in either case.

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

BSG

When we jump, I get plopped back in the Hangar Deck, right?

I move to FTL control and activate FTL.

Correct. Consider yourself plopped, Aploppo.

I have passes on interrupts from everyone else, so let's roll:

Die roll: 7. Pass! The entire fleet makes it safely to: ok, this is awkward. Your destination is the Admiral's choice. Remember the Admiral? That guy you left stranded at the start of this jaunt. Maybe you'd better choose somewhere close to Caprica so he can find you all. Admiral Agathon, when you're ready, please post your choice of destination.

Final ordre of business: as you have jumped before a basestar or civilian ship was destroyed, Thirty Three gets reshuffled back into the crisis deck. Look at all those crises that were coming up. "Hooch and Slatterns", "Pillow Fight", "Land of Puppies and Unicorns where Nothing Bad Ever Happens" - alas, all now shuffled back into the deck. Oh well, I'm sure the crises you get instead will be just as nice.

Aw, maaaaaan.

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

BSG

checking email but while we're on the subject: If we get 'assign mission specialist' as a quorum card I'm all for it- it gives us an extra choice.

Cylon Refinery it is. The Admiral may choose to risk 2 vipers for a chance to gain 2 Fuel. Admiral, when you're ready, please post your choice. If Helo decides to try for the extra Fuel, there will be a die roll. Everyone with an SP or Calcs, please send me COs to pass or play.
