Well, a gathering is brie, mellow song stylings; shindig, dip, less mellow song stylings, perhaps a large amount of malt beverage, and hootenanny, well, it's chock full of hoot, just a little bit of nanny.

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

BSG

Starbuck has left the following COs for her turn:

Move: Play God's Plan-2. She takes the top card from the destiny deck and puts the GP-2 in its place.
Action: Draw another super crisis.

Cards sent. That concludes Starbuck's turn. As Cally starts in Sickbay, she may draw only one card. She has opted to draw Blue. Cally, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

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

BSG (Foster the People)

As Cally starts in Sickbay, she may draw only one card. She has opted to draw Blue.

Well, that's troubling.

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

BSG (Cally)

Why is that troubling?

I'm thinking I should move back to Main Batteries unless someone has a better idea.

BSG (President Suspiciouspants)

You draw every color but Red, and you choose to draw a color that is almost always negative in a check and has no tactical use to us at this moment since nothing needs to be repaired.

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

I'd like to take a moment to remind everyone that I really do love you all. When I say angry things it's in the spirit of the game. It's hard (but also really fun) when you don't know who's a cylon and suspicion seems to point to you. I do know it's just a game and honestly without the not knowing and the being defensive I don't think this game would be half as much fun.

Ha, did you edit out an angry comment I didn't see?

It's hard (but also really fun) when you don't know who's a cylon and suspicion seems to point to you.

Also when you KNOW who's a Cylon and they SHOOT YOU IN THE FACE.

I do know it's just a game and honestly without the not knowing and the being defensive I don't think this game would be half as much fun.

Which is weird for this game because I have a feeling we're going to suss out the other Cylon soon, and then we'll be done with the suspicion phase.

Actually, Cally, if you shoot Dee in the face, we can just get this over with. If she's the Cylon, we win. If she's human, it's you. Of course, it's you, maybe we should take that gun away.

Or we can sit tight and see what happens.

You draw every color but Red

what does that have to do with it? I had to choose from my skill set.

I did not know that.

has no tactical use to us at this moment

But in the future repairs might be essential. I didn't want to pass up an opportunity for a repair card.

I accept your reasoning. FOR NOW.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

BSG

Actually, Cally, if you shoot Dee in the face, we can just get this over with. If she's the Cylon, we win. If she's human, it's you.

But then I'd have to pick a new character and believe me you don't want to see all that dithering. And Tory could still be the cylon cleverly manipulating a human Cally, so no information gained for me.

Main Batteries has no downside as long as there are no vipers or civvies in the air, so that sounds fine to me.
