Can I reveal that I was a cylon now? Or do I have to keep that secret still?

Wow, that got really exciting and interesting towards the end! Actually it was pretty exciting and interesting earlier, but the trauma business is all mysterious and new. Fascinating.
BSG (Gaeta)
Ahahahahaha, I was hoping that the other Cylon had a Morale Reveal, but this was way better. Well done, you were one person I was sure WASN'T a Cylon because you're so transparent. Figures the second time you're a Cylon, you're Baltar again.
I totally made the right Crossroads choice. Oh man, that was glorious.
BSG
Aw dammit. And bt WARNED us about Morale when we picked Ionian Nebula to play.
At least it wasn't the Admiral. I'd have felt REALLY stupid passing up that chance to execute him.

Also, my riff on "The God Complex" was a funnier reveal.
t sticks out tongue
Funny? I was going for dramatic. Or maybe Dramdey.
Well done, you were one person I was sure WASN'T a Cylon because you're so transparent.
Transparent? Like Muddy Water! I was lying through my teeth. I mean, really. How many quorum cards does it take to get something useful? Such a great action that absolutely nothing. And all those repair cards I never used. My favorite was the reckless check that I did so more cards could be played, and then spiked the check with a reckless that broadcast location.
I told BT I picked Baltar, because I wanted to be Cylon. Last time, I was horrible at it. Got it at the turn, and didn't know how to change gears. Couldn't lie my way outta bed. This time, I was from the start, so that was easier. But wasn't sure when to reveal. To the point BT was getting sad. But, all things being said, I think staying human helped win the game. And in sweet fashion too! My Nebula lowered morale. Revealed Cylon lowered morale again. Then my first action after nebula kills it. It was glorious.
Before I forget, a big hats off to BT for all the hard work, advice, and insights!
I WASN'T A TOASTER!
You weren't! And yet you were still pretty much at the top of Gaeta's suspect list.
For those who are interested, Baltar's reveal power would have allowed him to place a Centurion on the board party track.
