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

I would like to note that your action CAN be to play an XO, as long as someone hasn't played an XO (or CS) this turn. So let's make this as awesome as possible. At the very least, Anders will get a card and Zarek can work the Quorum. It's like a split XO, plus BONUS FOR EVERYONE ELSE.

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

This is correct. There is a limit of one XO or CS per turn. The SoE does NOT count towards this limit. One person may, if they wish, use their action to play an XO on another player, giving them a move and action, or two actions.

BSG I can XO someone, but I think I'd rather work the Quorum. Does someone else want to grab the XO opportunity?

Hm, I don't think I can add to the awesomeness, so I will just move to the Airlock. I do not recommend anyone XO me at this time. It would not be awesome.

The Chief has moved to the Airlock. Anders is up next.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Interesting. All that for a box of noodles? Cool. I'm in the research lab, so my action is to ACTIVATE RESEARCH LAB and draw a blue card.

Anders' card has been sent. Gaeta is up next.

So it looks like unless Gaeta has some awesome cards, the best person to be XO'd would be either Anders to draw some more cards (purple is also good!) or Zarek to REALLY work that Quorum.

Gaeta, you could move somewhere to be in a better position for a later XO, I guess. Too bad you can't jump us right now! Or launch a scout, that would be useful.

or Chief to draw more repair cards. I'm leaning towards the quorum.

As much as I despise politics, Tom Zarek has been a powerful ally in our fight against the cylons. I wonder if he might persuade the Quorum to participate in a military strategy to address the ongoing cylon threat?
