Wash: So, two days in a hospital? That's awful. Don't you just hate doctors? Simon: Hey. Wash: I mean, present company excluded. Jayne: Let's not be excluding people. That'd be rude.

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

I don't know if anyone here plays Mass Effect, but this is a fascinating, fantastic article. I've always been interested in playing it, but now I'm really intrigued.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Poke poke. Any progress?

Awaiting Cally's play. I got a clarification, but now I need to clarify the clarification.

What is this, Joseph Heller's BSG?

Thrive to spite them

Sorry I thought I sent the clarification this morning before I went to work but it turns out I only thought about what I wanted to say. I didn't actually write the email.

BSG

That's everyone's orders.

Guilt by Collusion: 9 GP

Destiny: 2 cards
Starbuck: 0 cards
Tigh: 2 cards
Six: 0 cards
Baltar: 0 cards
Dee: 1 card
Roslin: 1 card
Cally: 2 cards

Cards played:

Declare Emergency 3
At Any Cost 4
Declare Emergency 4
Declare Emergency 5
At Any Cost 5
Strategic Planning 3
Consolidate Power 2
Repair 1

Tally: 24 - 3 = 21. Pass! Cally has now been given free rein to brig anyone she decides is in need of a brigging. But when you have the option of shooting them in the face (IN THE FACE!), locking them up just doesn't have that same adrenaline rush. Plus, then she wouldn't be able to shoot them in the face. Cally opts not to send anyone to the Brig.

The jump track also advances, which is nice. Finally, Tigh is down to one card, so he celebrates his release by drinking it. Tigh discards Consolidate Power 1.

That concludes Cally's turn. Starbuck, would you like Blue or Green for your optional draw?
