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

On another note, I'm off to Sydney on business for two days starting tomorrow. My response times will likely be slower in the meantime, and I'm not sure what kind of internet connectivity I'll have there.

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

Well, that's not a good start. Sheesh.

No kidding. We need to start planning ahead:

I will Move to Weapons Control to be ready for an XO to make things go POW and LS-1 on the Crisis Deck.

Admiral Adama endorses things going POW, quite possibly starting with this raptor.

Die roll: 4. Pass! There will be no POW-going this turn. The top card of the crisis deck is being sent. Admiral, when you're ready, please post whether to put it on the top or the bottom of the deck.

It's been sent to a watery grave. Speaking of, Adama's crisis is:

Water Shortage
President's Choice

President Foster, when you're ready, please post your choice.

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

BSG (President Tory)

Well, this is no good. Admiral just got some cards, I'm about to get cards. I guess it's not too huge a hit. Admiral, how do you feel about the security of the fleet with reduced cards vs reduced food? I'm looking for opinions here folks, should we take the hit to food? Or chance the decrease in cards?

BSG(Husker like the Wolf)

Given that resources are high and we're going to be short or cards for another turn or so, I recommend tightening our belts.

Admiral makes a good point. We could probably use the cards more in this first round, especially since we just blew some on a failed check.
