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

BSG (Ellen)

Pass on interrupts.

Oh, and you've got recon! So, um, if we trust you, you could conceivably advise us to wait for the auto-jump because our Crisis is amenable to that course of action, right?

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

BSG

Boomer scouts the crisis deck.

Die roll: 2. Fail. Raptor lost.

Ah well, these things happen, right? No reason for the raptor pilots to be concerned. Boomer's crisis is:

Resistance
Skill Check (12 YGP)

The usual interrupts: IC, SR, Reckless. Everyone, please pass or play. You can also CO me your play for the check itself. Ellen plays first, Boomer last.

Ugh. I can help a little. Pass on interrupts

I could help a little. There are cards I want to use on my turn.

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

BSG

I can help a little and/or gather an Investigative Committee.

I am usually in favor of ICs, but it depends on whether Gaeta and Adama think we can pass without one. I think if we can all help a little, we may not have an issue. Destiny is always a wild card, though, and we have to be wary of Cylon spikes.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

BSG (Gaeter? I barely knew 'er!)

I can help a little. And I think we could use the IC. It's the surest insurance against Cylons at this stage, and it helps with card management.

eta: No interrupts from me, though.

BSG

While we await Tory's decision on interrupts (everyone else has passed), I've only received COs from one player so far. Anyone else who's got 'em, let me know. Ellen plays first, Boomer last.

BSG(Sooner or Later, Boom!)

I vote for the IC. I can't help much and what I can put in has uses elsewhere.

BSG (unable to think of a clever nckname at this time Tory)

I play an IC-3

I demand an investigation of this resistance! Don't cry for me, rag-tag fugitive fleet!
