A dress should be tight enough to show you're a woman but loose enough to flee from zombies. — Ginger

Not sure who KG is (Dr. Who, I'm thinking) -- this would NOT be fair usage, then?

Bugger if I'm right..

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

Profile addy is good, so I won't harsh your play.

It's no problem, this is still the thread for gaming discussion (though we do tend to hijack it somewhat). We put BSG at the head of posts concerning the game to try and keep room for non-BSG posts. Speaking of which:

Gaeta's cards have gone out. Will his newfound tactical skill be any help in the crisis to come?

Eh. Not really. The Chief's crisis is:

Widespread Starvation
President's Choice

Now that doesn't sound good. President Zarek, when you're ready, please post your choice.

Well, I guess Option 2 is better since we're low on food. Oops.

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeah.

See what happens when you don't follow the ration plan, people.

(Cripes, three turns in office and I'm an authoritarian. Power really does corrupt)

I choose to lose 1 Food and 1 Pop.

President Zarek vows to go into the next election campaign under the slogan "My Twinkies! NOT MY TWINKIES!!" A tenth of the fleet falls to his hoarding ways.

Finally, the jump track advances. That concludes the Chief's turn. Anders has opted to draw 1 Red in his optional draw. Mr Anders, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

Administrative note: Anders' card draw exhausted the Tactics deck. I've reshuffled the discards.

How eager are you to have BRAND NEW CYLONS, Captain?

'Cause I can't shake this feeling of impending doom.
