I volunteered to discard a bunch of cards like 2 or 3 times, so I'd have an excuse for not playing into the checks. That was an interesting strategy.
Though I note that you apparently had no qualms about underplaying into checks even when you did have a lot of cards.
Well yeah. I didn't want to HELP those pesky humans if I didn't have to.
I'm still giggling at the "transparent" comment. I *really* was scared of being shot in the face.
I'll never trust you again.
Hell, I don't trust me. Who knew I was so good at lying... I suppose it helps when you can see me squirming and smirking.
Oh man I so suspected you, but I know what it's like to be a human suspected cylon, the more you protest the more you're suspected so then I wasn't sure.
From the peanut gallery, I had Baltar pegged once it was obvious there was a second Cylon (and had suspicions before that) simply because he was so useless. (That's meant as a compliment, omnis.)
Of course, it's a lot easier from the outside looking in.
I also suspected Starbuck for awhile, just because it was ND.
simply because he was so useless.
Ha! Yes. There was point when I was saying to BT that I need to play a quorum card soon, for I feared NOT playing any for so long was suspicious. It really is a tough balance. How do you not help the humans, but stay hidden.
Ultimately I think I stayed hidden too long. No clue when I should have revealed. But, I wouldn't recomend it for future. I got lucky. And it was rather fun!
We also had no brigging this game too, yes? Rather strange game. Minimal suspicions voiced. Minimal violence. No boarding party. No OPG. No nukes. A LOoooOng stretch of no attack cards. Crazy!

And for a while there... I really thought the humans were going to make it.

I was afraid I wasn't going to have enough time to take you down either.
I was eying that morale for awhile. Towards the end, I was trying to figure out how to raise suspicions on a human without raising them on me. Not an easy task, especially since we all played a rather clean game, so nothing to point at. But nothing would have made me happier, then to OPG and say a human was cylon, Cally shoot them in the face, Morale drop 1, then Dogsville, then reveal. Alas. Never worked out that way.
