Holy frak, we're jumping? I mean, let's just tank this check and die. The only way we don't lose if there's a 0 Fuel Destination available.
Pass on interrupts, and I can help on this check.
Ah, yes, of course. The gypsies, they gave you your soul. The gypsies are filthy people. Ptui! We shall speak of them no more.

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

So, a real message of hope there from the former CAG. For those who are interested, there are four destinations (out of 33, excluding Misjump) that will not end the game immediately. There are three 1-Distance destinations that cost 0 Fuel; and there is the 2-Distance Cylon Refinery, which would leave the fate of the crew to a die roll.
Under normal circumstances, there are also four Tylium Planets (of which you've seen one already), that could also raise Fuel on a die roll. However, you need to risk a raptor in order to take the die roll, and you are now out of raptors.

Well, those are pretty good odds. And by pretty good I mean sucktacular.
I'm glad we're not jumping on Anders's turn! Because what a dramatic end of the game it would be for him to Longshot the Cylon Refinery die roll to make us lose.

Tory plays 2 cards
Cally plays 1 card
Gaeta is up next.

To understand what happened at the diner, we shall use Mr. Papaya! This is upsetting because he's the friendliest of fruits.
Things are beginning to get real for SCAVENGER HUNT ON INFINITE EARTHS. People still seem to be having a lot of trouble picking characters, but the stage is set:

Serial: Volstagg from the Warriors Three has joined the hunt!!!! I am terribly excited by this development.
Laga and some others have been ponderign what characters to play. Right now, I have no female characters. Female players, but not characters.
If anyone wants to take up Buffy Summers, Lilah Morgan, Veronica Mars Elizabeth Bennet (or Jane Austen herself), I'd be totally into it.
Also, if anyone is looking for a male character, can I suggest Buckaroo Bonzai?
Laga - Jul 30, 2012 10:32:16 am PDT #17014 of 26134
You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I'm definitely planning to play a female. Trying to decide between Moaning Myrtle, Gaz from Invader Zim, and (once I remember her name) the daughter from Time Traveller's Wife... or maybe I'll choose someone else. But a female for sure.
