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

I am really confused about Anders right now. If he's just got bizarrely Conflicted Loyalties, I don't even know if we have another Cylon. Now would have been a great time to reveal; no one is going to XO him because he's too godsdamn suspicious.

Frak, my Jump Early plan works best if we don't lose any more Pop! I could help on the check, but I'd be afraid of more spiking and not passing.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

BSG (Tory)

Yeah, I have no idea what's happening. Wheee, we are still alive! How bout that?

Ooh, potential shiny new raptor. Nifty. I seem to have lost all my skills (possibly I found some booze before that last jump, that would explain a lot) so I can't help with anything. But I'll sober up and be useful again as soon as this crisis passes...

Hey Boomer, don't you still have your Mysterious Intuition?

Nope, I used it to keep us from getting hammered by the Cylon Fleet not long after Sleeper.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

BSG (Anders)

hmm yeah. Seeing as how I don't think we have an SP I think we've got to go for the skill check.

I choose option 1

pass on interrupts. I can help a little.

Man. If we succeed in this, I'm going to be sad again about the Scout for Fuel.

Next, the raider activation adds a new raider in Sector 2 of the CFB, and advances the pursuit track one space. Finally, the jump track advances. That concludes Anders' turn. Tory's cards are going out. President Foster, when you're ready, please post your move and action.
