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

Details going out now. However, before we get matters underway, I have orders from Starbuck that she would like to consider using her OPG on this crisis card. If she does so, Roslin does not get another choice; we simply discard this crisis card and draw a new one. Starbuck, when you're ready, please post whether you wish to invoke your Secret Destiny.

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

So that was your dastardly plan all along, huh, President Robot? Starbuck, on the upside, Roslin can't spike this check, but on the downside, I think anyone who had Green to toss in tossed it in the last check. And the other Crisis could be worse. But, you know...dammit.

Aside from this game (it's not my place to speculate whether he is or isn't a Cylon while the game's still on), he's been human four times, and a Cylon four times. As a Cylon he's won three times; as a human he's won once. (About par for the course.)

Aside from this game, P-C has been a Cylon three times and a human three times, so the same rate as ND. (He's won every Cylon game and one human game.)

And there was the time that BOTH ND and I were Cylons, and we destroyed the living shit out of Team Human. Mostly thanks to him, though.

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

BSG (Good Doctor)

So close. My Manchurian Candidate almost did it. No worries PRESIDENT Roslin, we still have time. Mwahhahahahahahahahaha!!

(oh, and when you decide to come over, we will happily get rid of that pesky human cancer thing for you. I'm in awe at how long you tolerated it. Bath of goo waiting for you!)

There are many other crisis cards with skill checks, possibly harder skill checks, that threaten Morale. A lot of them are current player's choice. There are however only two cards remaining that let a player simply choose to lose Morale. One of them, NCP Graduation, is Admiral's Choice. The other one is:

Demanded Surrender
President's Choice

...Sorry guys.

I choose OPTION 2.

Thanks for the new card!
