b. Is there any weapon more ludicrous than a stick to poke people with? If you could program brutes, I would have his battle cry being "Get offa my lawn!"

I think of it as a quarter-staff, though admitedly wielded oddly. Still, the stick has won me many a match.

Check out this one from tonight. This was a rematch of shield vs bear. I knew the guy had a bear but he won our first encounter by a whisker and I was determined to give it another shot. [link]

This is quite a battle. No one-hit kill here.

Most of my wins tonight were that close. Not all from the first blow.

So hey, in MyBrutes, do we want to form a clan? No clue what that is all about, but it seems most of us have multiple brutes. We could have one hella clan.

eta here is yet ANOTHER close call: [link]

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

Sorry for the delay.

I'll be Gaius Baltar.

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

Excellent. The magnificent bastard is on board. Random has left conditional orders and will take Lee "Apollo" Adama. Please do not be disturbed when he starts calling his wife Daddy. I will be sending out Loyalty cards in a moment. Everyone except O_A also draws three cards from their skill set. Please post or email the colour combo you would like.

Hello everyone! Good to meet/renew acquaintance with you all. I'll most likely airlock you in the morning.

Standing behind the lectern in the CAG, I take 1P, 1G, and 1Y with a thrust of my brooding (yet powerful) jaw.

Ok, we just need to hear from Adama (Raq) and Roslin (Sean) on their card draws and we're good to go.
