Been a bit grey for awhile. But a birdie told me there might be a new round of BSG. Still got room for a wayward soul (I'm human, I swear..)

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

We do indeed, and I'll be the judge of that. Welcome aboard!
We're currently voting on whether we should have a Cylon leader in this game (see about three posts up). You can send me your vote on the issue (Yes/No/Abstain).

Well, if chrismg is truly onboard, then we have seven, which makes Cylon Leaders a necessity.

At the moment we have six. Of the players in the last game, I haven't heard back from Liese yet. Meanwhile, I have votes from four people so far.
Edit: sorry, you're right. We do have seven players now. And, as voted, I have four votes on Cylon leaders. With seven players, all four votes are in favour of including Cylon leaders; we will therefore play with a Cylon leader, which means we can have seven players. This, then, is our crew:
Polter-Cow
-t
Laga
NoiseDesign
askye
chrismg
omnis
I will get the files sorted out and we should be ready for character selection this weekend.

I have the files in order, and that mans we're ready to start character selection. The randomly determined player order is:
-t
Laga
chrismg
omnis
Polter-Cow
NoiseDesign
askye
-t is up first, and may select any character. Everyone else, you may if you wish send me COs for your character choice.
In addition, everyone except the first player (i.e. everyone except -t) begins with a starting draw of 3 cards, taken from your character's regular draw. (A Cylon leader starts with two cards.) Don't forget to add your choice of starting draw in your COs.
Happy hunting!

Woohoo, I'm #1! I think I'll try being a pilot this time, and the specific pilot will be... Starbuck. Much more likely to be human this time, I'm sure.

And we're off! Starbuck has an optional card draw as part of her regular draw; Starbuck, you can send me orders for your first-turn pick. You can also if you wish send me standing COs for future turns.
Laga is up next. Laga, you may pick any character except a pilot. When you're ready, please post your choice. You can also either post or email me your starting card draw.

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

Hi there! Still a bit confused about cylon leaders. (getting caught up on email this very moment) May I choose to be one?
update: I read the Cylon Leader rules and they drove me to drink. I'll be Saul Tigh.

Omnis is next, and by CO he chooses Gaius Baltar. Next up is P-C. He can pick any character not already chosen (except another Cylon Leader).
