Oh, huh, I didn't follow the Portal 2 reviews because I haven't played the single-player and didn't want to be spoiled.
Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

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

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

It's time once more to sort out the crew, for Buffistica 16 - Doing the Pigeon. We have a five-person crew, presented here in character order:
Laga
Liese S.
askye
Polter-Cow
-t
The fleet will be travelling to Kobol, protected by Battlestars Galactica and Pegasus. There will be no Cylon leader, as there are five players. The game will include the Conflicted Loyalties and Cylon Fleet modules from Exodus.
Character selection starts now! Laga is first, and may select any character. Everyone else, you can send me COs if you wish. For general interest, here is a table of all the characters, and the number of times they've been selected to date:
Apollo: 6 games
Boomer: 6 games
Helo: 6 games
Cally: 5 games
Gaeta: 5 games
Starbuck: 5 games
Adama: 4 games
Baltar: 4 games
Chief: 4 games
Tigh: 4 games
Tory: 4 games
Zarek: 4 games
Anders: 3 games
Dee: 3 games
Ellen: 3 games
Roslin: 3 games
Cain: 2 games
Kat: 2 games

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
BSG
Ooh this is exciting. It was surprisingly hard to choose from all the characters and I was uncertain which ones I haven't played yet. However, I'm pretty sure I've never played Cally because I don't recall ever having the power to shoot someone in the face! So please welcome aboard Callandra “Cally” Tyrol.

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."
BSG
Yay, we're off! I will play Roslin so all y'all can give me headaches the whole frakking time.
I'm a little sad we don't have a Cylon leader this turn. Quick, recruit somebody!

Thrive to spite them
BSG
I'm a little sad there's no Cylon leader. I'll go for something different and pick the Old Man - William Adama.
Laga - Oct 06, 2012 11:06:01 am PDT #17936 of 26134

BSG
I too am a little sad.

BSG
I was going to be a Cylon Leader!
It looks like we don't have a Pilot, but I've played a lot of Pilots. Perhaps I will save Anders for another time and go with Chief Tyrol.

-t is last to pick. -t, you may choose a pilot or Dee. Everyone except Laga, don't forget to post or send me your choice of starting draw of three cards (taken from your regular card draw). You may make it conditional on your loyalty, as you technically see that first. (If you choose to do so, I suggest you send me COs rather than posting them in-thread.)

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration
BSG
Couple of Tyrols, eh? I guess I'd best be a pilot, then. I don't think I've played Apollo before, this seems like a good opportunity.
And I'll take two Red and one Purple for my draw.

One of each, please.
