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

A reminder: when the fleet hits Distance 8 (2 Distance away), it will reach the Ionian Nebula. Two things happen there: first, everyone resolves a Crossroads card and their trauma; second the final battle begins. The set-up appears in the Exodus rulebook.

I say fix her if you can, but don't make it a priority over dealing with toasters.

Pegasus is still teetering, but Galactica is back to full health. That's creating bad feeling among all the civilians who'd selected Pegasus in their Fantasy Battlestar League! Cally's crisis card is:

Riots (A)
Admiral's Choice

Admiral Agathon, when you're ready, please post your choice.

Hey, did I ever send out the details of Chief's crisis card?

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

Nope.

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

I gotta go with Option 2.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

To the RPG-playing parents: when did you start letting your kids play (if you have)?

Mattias (who turns 6 next month) has been expressing a lot of interest in my Pathfinder books lately when I've been reading them, though I haven't let him page through because there's some more mature content than he's ready for in them. However, I do own a copy of the Pathfinder Beginners Box.

I know I started running my own made-up RPGs when I was 12 and moved on to D&D proper when I was 14.

I don't have kids but a recent Penny Arcade series is tangential to this topic.
