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

Did we entice any observers into wishing to be players?

On this note, new players are always welcome. Owning the game is an advantage, but it's not necessary.

Of course, players from previous games are welcome to join in again too.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Yes, yes, but post in Press! People who aren't following Gaming don't know when we've finished up a round. (Yes, I know I could do it myself.)

Okay fine. How did I do?

Harumph.

I'd join up!

Actually, I think the announcement probably does have a better impact from a player. So thanks for that.

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

So many puns were made!

I think I want to be Tory next game, but Laga used up all the good Tory puns.

I think I'm going to sit this one out. I'll jump back in when I feel my (*ahem*) batteries recharged. Or maybe if you go for Cylon Leaders.....

Cylon leaders could be an option, depending on the number of players we get. With five players I'd say no. With six players it would work, though I'd recommend getting comfortable with New Caprica before introducing further complications. If we have seven people interested, however, then we'd need one to be a Cylon leader for it to work.

We currently have five people for the next game: NoiseDesign, Polter-Cow, Liese S., Laga and -t. I have my exam today, which means we can start thereafter. (If any lurkers would like to give it a try, we still have a vacant seat.) We'll be heading to New Caprica again. You can all start thinking about which character you'd like this time round; you can send me COs too if you like (don't forget sstarting draw), though feel free to wait and see the player order at least.

It's time to get the next flight of the Buffistica underway, and this one goes up to 11! this will be a five-player game (but there's still time for a sixth player to join up) heading to New Caprica. I've sent out the relevant information to the players, along with a few minor issues on which to vote. that means it's now time for character selection. Please welcome the crew of BSG 11, in turn order:

Liese S.
Laga
Polter-Cow
-t
NoiseDesign

Liese, you get first pick for your character choice, and the field is wide open. Everyone else, you can if you wish send me COs for your choice. Standard rules apply, so not all categories may be open when it comes to your turn. Don't forget your starting draw of three cards too. You can post it or send me a CO.

Happy hunting!
