Woo! Very excited! I love watching these games! Can I make a suggestion? Would you guys consider posting your character name in parenthesis at the end of your tag for the duration of the game? No big deal if not, but I'm always getting people mixed up!

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

I don't want to put it in my tag, but I could put it in the BSG tag when I remember, like:

BSG (Apollo)

"What kind of magical sunshine and lollipop world do you live in? Because you need to be medicated."-SFist

I second Rayne's suggestion for the same reason!

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

You guys should play! But yeah, I can totally do that. It would probably help the players too, at least starting out.

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

BSG

Liese is up next, and chooses Felix "I'll take 'Deeply inappropriate first names for 200', Alex" Gaeta. Lage is next. Laga, we now have one of each main category, so you may choose any character not already taken.

Somebody else be President! Ellen Tigh makes a shitty President, I realized, because her special ability relies on her moving to spaces where other people are. She's like the anti-Zarek.

You can all just call me Feel...no, you can all just call me Lix...no, you can, you can. You know, just pretend I don't have a first name.

I was going to call you Leapin' Louie, louche leg-lacking lounge lizard of Libron's dive bars, pleasure palaces and speakeasies. I can't speak for anyone else though.
