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

BSG (Roslin)

Ooh, clever move, hope you draw an XO!

Oh, you can't use a CS and XO on the same turn, bah. Well, at least we get a couple more cards out of the deal.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

BSG (Starbuck)

Interesting. I look forward to the mini transfusion.

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

BSG (Adamarama)

The problem is, that was Adama's turn. And his special ability means that for crisis cards drawn on his turn, 1s count positive.

thank-you for catching that! I remember thinking it and then forgetting to check.

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

BSG

Cottle's cards have been sent. When you're ready, please let me know which cards you pass to Starbuck, and your orders for your regular action.

BSG

Cottle has passed two cards to Starbuck. Her regular action is:

Treat Adama
Draw 1G/1P

Doc Cottle, when you're ready, please let me know which two cards to give Adama.

BSG

Cottle has treated Adama as well. In each case his advice was the same: take two pills and drink plenty of fluids. They have taken the Doctor's order to heart; Cottle's crisis card is:

Water Shortage
President's Choice

President Roslin, when you're ready, please post your choice.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

BSG (Doc)

Not that much fluid, people! Argh.

Obviously, I don't want to discard all but one of my cards.

But Food is low, so. Heavy sigh. I don't know, Laura.

BSG (Sickbay-Starbuck)

It's a no brainer. Take a hit on the cards.

ION, looking ahead to Admiral's turn. I want to put forth to the group a unique request. If the good Admiral has an XO, I would request the Admiral direct it my way. Now, I know that there is a great fear of XO'ing the person who plays next. But I need out! I'm going stir crazy in here. And (no offense Doc), Doc's ciggies are really getting to me. First, we need all the cards we can get! Second, I really don't want another tramua token!

Thank you for letting me lobby like this. Carry on. ::cough::

Ooh, Cottle can use Treatment twice! Nice.

It's a no brainer. Take a hit on the cards.

We are so low on cards, though. I'm afraid of getting checks we have to tank that have more dire consequences than -1 Food. Adama, what are your thoughts? Neither option is good, but I'd like to hear from everyone.

BSG (Adama)

ouch! That's a lot of cards but if it were a skill check I think we would spend that many to save one food. I vote option 2.
