I can help. We only need a partial pass. Let's not overplay.

Pass on interrupts.

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

Administrative note: Destiny's play into the check reduced it to 6 cards. I've replenished and reshuffled it. Doing so exhausted the Leadership deck. I've reshuffled the discards.

I have everyone's play:

Resistance Bombings: 12 GPB

Destiny: 2 cards
Roslin: 3 cards
Cally: 2 cards
Starbuck: 1 card
Tigh: 4 cards
Six: 1 card
Baltar: 1 card
Kat: 0 cards

Let me just say, this is quite the fascinating check. Cards played:

Executive Order 1
Executive Order 2
At Any Cost 3
Trust Instincts 0
Launch Scout 1
Launch Scout 1
Launch Scout 1
Scientific Research 5
Red Tape 0
Consolidate Power 1
Support the People 1
Evasive Maneouvre 1
Broadcast Location 1
God's Plan 2

Tally: 14 - 6 = 8. Partial Pass. But! There are two 0-value cards in the mix. The Red Tape 0 cancels out the Scientific Research 5. Tally falls to 3! Next, the Trust Instincts 0 adds two more cards from Destiny. It adds:

Iron Will 0
State of Emergency 6

If not for that Red Tape, the final tally would be 14 and a pass. Alas, it cancels out the SoE-6 as well, and the total remains at 3. This is more than 4 points from the pass level, so the Iron Will 0 doesn't help. (Nor is the total negative, so there's no additional Morale loss.) The check fails! Morale and Population both fall by 1.

Finally, a Centurion pops up at the Occupation Authority. That concludes Kat's turn. Roslin's cards are going out. President Roslin, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

BSG (Kat)

Oh my frakking gods, I gambled on a huge overplay and lost. Everyone was playing so many cards, I figured we'd get the partial pass, easy. I didn't want to waste cards that I could use on another check. I also didn't think Roslin would spike the check THAT HARD, but I assume she's going to reveal now, so frakkity frak frak.
