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

Meanwhile, I have some COs from Baltar, who does not move. He encounters Priestess Elosha, who gives him a dose of the Old Time Religion - she is Benevolent. The top card of the crisis card is going to Baltar. President Baltar, when you're ready, please post whether to put it on the top or the bottom of the deck.

As Elosha shuffles off (not a euphemism), Alex "Crashdown" Quartararo appears in the Armoury. Was it a good idea to let him near the weapons? Only Baltar knows for sure. President Baltar, when you're ready, please let me (and only me) know what mood he's in.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

BSG (President)

That is not a happy card. We should bury it. May the gods bless us with the next one being a much happier card.

Baltar activates the President's Office. First Quorum card sent. President Baltar, you may now either draw another Quorum card, or play one from your hand. When you're ready, please post your orders.

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

Starbuck chooses to damage Pegasus. Specifically, Pegasus CIC. Chief lands in Sickbay!

Ahahaha FINALLY and perfect timing, too, since he's stuck there now. Hope Cottle is in a bad mood.

It's up to the Chief whether he chooses to encounter Cottle in Sickbay.

Oh, right, you have to end your Movement phase there. Boooo. Cottle should still be mean to him anyway.

Baltar draws a second Quorum card. It's mad Quorum action! Should the people be told? This is what Presidenting is all about! Baltar's crisis card is:

Informing the Public
Current Player's Choice

President Baltar, when you're ready, please post which colour you would like for your Delusional Intuition; then post your crisis card choice.

Yikes. Don't like either option. I'm not too keen on failing #1. Especially with Helo going all in last check. It's low, but if we fail, that's a big hit. I'm leaning towards option 2. Any thoughts folks?

Our wings are not tired

BSG (Starbuck)

Yeah, both are not good, but I really don't want to drop 2 morale is we miss on option 1, so I'd lean towards option 2.
