That's just what you want us to think! Maybe that last minute Emergency Declaring swoop was a ruse!

Probably not, but, hey, could happen.

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

BSG

That's comforting.

Well, we definitely need more ICs. I remain in the lab to play CP-1 and draw 2 Yellow.

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

BSG

Playing ICs in the future will certainly give you big points in the 'Not a Cylon' column.

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

BSG

Wait, what am I saying, Zarek stood to lose all his cards on this check.

I think you may be confusing this crisis with the previous crisis.

Note concerning the current discussion: it is against the secrecy rules to claim that you do or do not have cards of a particular colour. (It is ok to draw attention to public plays, though I'd prefer if you didn't go overboard with that; Apollo's statement that he's been playing a number of ICs is fine in any case, as it does not actually state whether or not he has any Yellow left.)

Oh shiiiit. All right, Zarek is back on the list. NO ONE IS SAFE. Except Helo and me.

I've played all my Blue, as anyone who was tracking closely would have realized (since I never have very many cards, it'd be pretty easy to verify).

Okay, but you could have played Yellow.

I didn't, but I can't prove that at this point. I know how you lawyer-pilots like proof.

Cards have been sent. Meanwhile, I love this point in the game. I do enjoy watching the paranoia spread through the fleet. You know what you guys need?

Mandatory Testing
Skill Check (13 YG)

Note that, because you have previously failed Detector Sabotage, no one may look at another player's loyalty card. Possible interrupts: IC, SR, Reckless. Everyone, please pass or play. You can also send me COs for the check itself. The Chief plays first, Apollo last.

So a pass is the same as a partial pass? An IC would be nice. I can help a lot with this check. But I must pass on interrupts.

Pass on interrupts.

Oh, Detector Sabotage! This crisis is now less interesting, as it is basically 9YG to keep from losing Morale. I can help with this check, but Morale is our highest resource right now.

Anyone interested in tanking this check by getting rid of those Treachery cards we got way back when? I don't remember who still has one.

was that this game? Seems so long ago.
