In non-BSG news, I have a new Ticket to Ride high score. Using the 1910 Expansion set, tonight I scored 435 points.
Hey, don't worry about it. Nest full of vampires, you come get me, okay. Box full of puppies, that's more of a judgement call.

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

I was pretty rapt. It was against an AI, so not so much a contest of wills as solving a puzzle. Nonetheless, pretty nifty solution.

Ok, now I have COs for it; CAGmident Adama plays a Declare Emergency 3. Dee walks free! Xomething else for which I don't have COs; Dee, where would you like to move to?
While Dee decides that, I'm sorry to report that some of Dee's former associates have taken to making snide comments behind her back, now that she's been in stir. Dee's crisis card is:
Loss of a Friend
Skill Check (9 YG)
Possible interrupts: IC, SR, Reckless. Everyone, please pass or play. You can also send me COs for the check itself. Baltar plays first, Dee last.
