Are...are you accusing me of spiking? Like, already?

BSG(Dr Doubt)

Not you specifically, no. But 2 5-point cards, negative on the check? I'll bet you a chocolate shake at least one of those cards was a spike.

Our wings are not tired

BSG (Doc)

Well, at least neither of those cards are colors that could have come from good old Doc Cottle.

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

BSG (Louis Hoshi)

Jump Track: 1 (Blue)

Blue at 1?

Wow! Accusations at first bump in the road? Gotta love this game. Well, if you want to start finger pointing, 4 of us draw green and one draw red. Too lazy to dig past the handful of posts to see who drew what. And yes, I'm one who draws green.

What I think? I think it was super bad luck. But hey, as things go, I'd much rather a double spike in one check, than two checks in a row with a big spike.
