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

BSG (Starbuck)

I propose option 1, and tank it.

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

BSG (Cally)

I can help a lot with the skill check, particularly if anyone else has some Blue to play.

if we go with the die roll, I can help with that too.

Die roll: 8. KILL THEM ALL! All contents of the sector are destroyed. That's one basestar, five raiders, one heavy raider and civilian ship A, which contained: 1 Population. Only thing missing was a viper.
All things considered, that's not a bad outcome. A decoy would have been ideal. But population is our most abundent resource right now. And we cleared a VERY cluttered sector. I expect we will hear the whining of a certain chrome ex-president.

Doc, ya did a good job there.

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

I expect we will hear the whining of a certain chrome ex-president.

I am too busy mourning ALL MY FRIENDS YOU KILLED YOU ASSHOLES.

Plus one of them owed me money.

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

BSG (Doc)

OK! Let's do Option 1 and see if we can pass. Could happen.

(Note to billytea, I mean the skill check, if I got them mixed up)

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

BSG

Let's see if I have everyone's interrupt COs... I do indeed, and everyone passes. The check begins:

Send Survey Team: 15 PRB

Destiny: 2 cards
Cally: (0 or 2+ cards)
Starbuck: (COs received)
Roslin: (COs received)
Cottle:

Cally is up first.

BTW, Cally

I can help a lot with the skill check, particularly if anyone else has some Blue to play.

Yeah, do that, that'd be good.

Please note, this identifies a card being played into the skill check, and is therefore a violation of the secrecy rules.

Oops. Should we do something to remedy that?

For my part, that info didn't really affect my choice of option or the COs I just put in for what to play.
