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

Ha, we are all united in our desire not to try Ionian Nebula right now. That one sounds SUPER TRAUMATIC. (Literally, there are trauma tokens.)

Cylon Leader, New Caprica, and Cylon Fleet all have one detractor, and we are, well, conflicted on Conflicted Loyalties.

Anything for a weird life.

less likely for Team Human to win in a walk

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

It will be the lesser-known "rocks fall, everyone dies" scenario.

I'll put up some options, and preferential voting will then commence. In the interests of keeping things manageable, there'll be two votes.

1. We will have one of (rank in order of preference):

Cylon Leader
New Caprica
Cylon Fleet

2. Should we include Conflicted Loyalties? Y/N

The humans have won three games so far to the Cylons' six.
