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

Kat, I appreciate your wanting to save our fleet, but if you keep screaming like that into the comms, you will end up in sickbay with a sore throat.

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

Per CO, Kat moves civvie A to Sector 5 and leaves civvie B where it is. Next, she calls on civvies D and E, moving both of them clockwise. She is found shortly afterwards twitching on the floor, having apparently attempted to snort the mic. As she is wheeled to Sickbay, however, the mic sputters back to life. Kat's crisis is:

Unidentified Ship
Skill Check (10 PR)

Possible interrupts: IC, SR, Reckless. Everyone, please pass or play. You can also send me COs for the check itself. Adama plays first, Kat last.

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

BSG (Kat)

Per CO, Kat moves civvie A to Sector 5

Actually, A goes to Sector 3.

Next, she calls on civvies D and E, moving both of them clockwise.

Actually, D goes counterclockwise and E goes clockwise.

Blah, that's not a great crisis. I don't want more Raiders on the board! And we need a jump icon, come on now! I can help a lot, though.

This just in: Tory plays an Investigative Committee 4. Everyone else has passed on interrupts, so the check begins with Adama. Thanks to the IC, everyone's play (except Destiny) is face up.

One reminder, as this is happening more often: if it's your turn to play, post directly in-thread. Don't just send it to me - that creates extra work, and if I'm not online at the time, creates delays. Email me with COs before your turn to play.

Unidentified Ship: 10 PR

Destiny: 2 cards
Adama:
Tory: (COs received)
Gaeta: (max 3 cards)
Apollo:
Kat:

YOU GUYS I FRAKKED UP.

We are okay for now, but it is critical that before Scar activates, someone moves civvie E or F back into Sector 5. I forgot that he will go after the nearest civvie, period, not just blindly circle the ship in a clockwise direction. If we don't put a civvie in Sector 5, he's going to wreak havoc in Sector 3, which was meant to be SAFE.

Hey guys, we started this check over a day ago and so far all I've received towards resolving it is two COs. It feels like things have been slowing down a bit lately, which makes the game less engaging for everyone (and encourages further slowing down). Let's try to pick up the pace again.

I pass on interrupts. I'll have to see how the check goes before playing. I can help a lot, but it may be overkill if you guys sweeten the pot before it gets to me.

Sorry guys, somehow I was sure there was someone playing before me. I'll get my move out as soon as I check something with bt.
