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.

Did you know you can get gay married in Skyrim ?

It has been an odd playthrough for me so far. I started out doing your standard fantasy adventure. (I'm an argonian (lizard) specializing in greataxes) But then I went to a city steward asking to buy a house and she told me all she had available was a buildable lot, so the next thing I know I'm building my own house.

Then I started doing quests for the goddess of love and I got this necklace as a reward and pretty soon I'm getting propositioned. One person who wanted to marry me is a girl who I fixed up with an elven guy who was so happy he started adventuring with me and when she asked if I was interested in her, he was standing right behind me! (awkward!)

I considered marrying a lumbermill owner since I'm still doing work on the house but then I met this warrior woman and when I returned her favorite sword to her she asked if I was interested in her and of course I was so the very next day we were married! She moved into my house and even started cooking for me. Then one day I came home and there was this guy standing over her, watching her sleep. I tried to talk to him but no menu came up when I clicked so I shouted at him, forgetting that my elven friend would fight anyone I acted aggressively toward so moments later this guy is dead in my entryway and my wife tells me to go away; she's in no mood to talk! So I went away and made her a necklace and when I came back the next day she was talking to me again but I couldn't find a menu option to give her the necklace so we just went adventuring together instead. On the way she told me of the man who save her life and I realized it's the guy my elven friend had killed the day before! We went to the dead guy's house and took away many of his belonging so I thought she realized he was dead and all was forgiven but she still sometimes talks about him as if he's alive. I know it's all a game and just some broken mechanics but still I feel really bad about it.

And now we're thinking of adopting some kids.

Quick wrap-up. Congratulations Cylons, commiserations humans. When you hit Sleeper phase, you'd only lost a couple of Fuel (which actually put you ahead of the curve) and a couple of Morale. The game usually gets a lot tougher once there are two Cylons.

Congratulations especially to omnis, who managed to stay off everyone's radar, even after he started causing mischief. My favourite: twice in the space of three skill checks, Baltar made the check Reckless - in both cases with a fairly useless interrupt. And in both cases, the check just happened to turn up some Reckless Treachery. (the good doctor played a BL into one and a BYC into the other.) In addition, Baltar drew two Politics per turn - more than any other player - and yet he never once contributed an Investigative Committee to a skill check. Oh, and your President played only two Quorum cards the entire game, and look how well that worked out. (The other one was right at the start, on turn 1.2.) Kalshane had it pegged, truly Baltar was the Ron Swanson of the Colonial fleet.

I went back and tracked how the fleet lost the Morale. Here's how it played out:

• On turn 1.4, Cally's crisis card was Truth and Reconciliation (President's Choice). Baltar chose to drop Morale, and send Cally to the Brig - he even got the crew's blessing.

• On turn 4.2, Baltar visited Kendra Shaw. She was Benevolent, and Baltar took advantage to swap Morale for Food. Granted, Food was one point lower than Morale at the time, but Morale causes more losses than Food.

• On turn 5.1, Starbuck's crisis was Forced Water Mining. Baltar made the check Reckless, and spiked with a BYC-1. However, Gaeta was the one who really doomed the check, with a well-timed Red Tape. Another Morale lost.

• You didn't have long to wait for the next loss, on the very next turn, with Hera Rescued. Baltar got everyone on board with just taking the 1 Morale hit (though it would have been difficult for the crew to pass, especially if Gaeta and Baltar spiked).

• No more Morale loss until turn 6.5, with Reunite the Fleet. Baltar pushed for Helo to choose the skill check, then spiked it hard with a Calcs-5. (Gaeta spiked too with an RI-5.)

Oh, by the way, on this check Helo had two TI-0s in hand, which he declined to play. Sensible enough with only two positive colours; but it so happens that if he's played it, Destiny would've added +9 to the check (PoP-6 and DE-3), bringing it to a pass. Instead, that mega-Destiny went to Weapon Malfunction, where it counted negative and doomed that check.

• That left Morale at 4 as the fleet made its final jump to the Ionian Nebula. Helo had a choice between Tylium Planet (which would extend the game by another jump cycle, and incidentally would've meant that you'd meet two attack cards, Thirty Three and Scar, at the Nebula) or Deep Space. He brought you to Deep Space instead, kicking off Crossroads and costing another Morale.

• Both Cylons, of course, hit Morale with their Crossroads cards. (If they'd both chosen the other option on their cards, Galactica would have been fired on by the raiders 24 times. Seriously.) This was perhaps the worst luck the humans had in the game, that both Cylons were given the opportunity to hit Morale (and that they both ignored the space battle to go after it) with their cards.

• The final point, of course, disappeared in the slums of Dogville, courtesy of President Baltar's final (in fact, his second) Quorum card play.

Final tally: of the nine points of Morale that were lost by the fleet. President Baltar had a direct hand in six of them, and in each case through a different avenue - there was a President's Choice, a Current Player's Choice, an NPC encounter, a spikes skill check, a Crossroads card and finally a Quorum card. He wins this game's MVP award.
