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

BSG (Ellen)

And by jump us out of here, I mean XO Gaeta to jump us out of here. He knows which button to press.

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

BSG

Aww, I was hoping for things to go boom. Tory suppresses the manuscript! The fleet's prescribed reading remains limited to the following Colonial Literature prizewinners:

"My Bassoon Teacher's Decolettage" - Franceon
"The Spirit and Purpose of Geography" - Germanon
"I Am Curious, Grey" - Swedon
"Battlefield Perth" - Australeon
"USA! USA! USA!" - USA

Morale falls by 1, raiders launch, jump prep advances, rocks fall, everyone dies. That concludes Tory's turn. Adama's cards are going out. Admiral Adama, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

Our wings are not tired

BSG (Adama)

I MOVE to Research and play an XO-1 on Gaeta.

Mr Gaeta, you have received an XO. You may either move and take an action, or not move and take two actions. When you're ready, please post your orders.

Anything for a weird life.

I can always tell before looking in the thread when a Cylon reveals, because suddenly there's a lot more posts. I'll admit it takes some of the suspense out of it.

Ha, yeah, I'll admit that when I saw 10 posts for Boomer's turn, I had a bad feeling before I clicked.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

BSG

(Hey guys! ooc: I'm back from mini-vacation now, so should be more prompt going forward, sorry for any delays!)

So this XO is to get me healthy again and also to jump prematurely, is that what I'm getting? Or, no, wait, we're still in the red, we can't force a jump?

We should be in the Blue. Tory's Crisis gave us jump prep.

Yes, you're at 3 (Blue), I missed that in the last turn update. Amending now.
