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

BSG

Here's the full play:

Administration (Roslin): 5 YG

Destiny: 2 cards
Adama: 1 card
Chief: 1 card
Apollo: 1 card
Cally: 0 cards
Roslin: 1 card

Cards played:

Support the People 2
Consolidate Power 2
Investigative Committee 3
Executive Order 2
Maximum Firepower 3
Sabotage 3

Tally: 9 - 6 = 3. Fail! It is however within range of a DE to make it pass. Does anyone feel the break-up of the Pradmiral constitutes an emergency? Everyone, please pass or play.

I do, in fact! I play DE3.

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

BSG (Apollo)

This is so exciting! And no one's accused anyone of being a cylon, yet. Way to run clean campaigns, y'all.

With the DE-3, Roslin reclaims the Presidency! And her Religious Visions have led her to conclude something should be done about the fleet's food supply. It's just too bland. She sets Dr Baltar to work on developing as acceptable a meat substitute as is possible with the fleet's limited options. Is Galactica able to cope with this

Strange Bacon
Skill Check (13 PRB)

Possible interrupts: IC, Reckless. Everyone, please pass or play.

I am conflicted. On the one hand, bacon is great, but on the other, stranger danger. I could potentially help a little with the check, but if we fail I would soon really regret not having the cards that I would have played into it.

In any case, pass on interrupts.

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

BSG (Chief)

Pass on interrupts.

We are going for this in earnest, right? Passing is good, failing is bad. I can't tell whether Apollo is suggesting we tank.

Are you suggesting we tank ?

I'm not! But it sounded like Apollo was wondering whether or not to play.
