Eh. Let's save that for later. I will
Move to Command
and
steal Cottle's miracle token.
The good Doctor is suddenly surrounded by a bevy of bodacious beauties. After they've finished whispering in his ear and patting his paunch, he somehow feels less miraculous than before.......
BSG
Cottle has been un-miracled! Well, now his feelings are hurt. Can the President mediate? Cultar's (I think that when he uses his ability he's Cultar) crisis card is:
Truth and Reconciliation
President's Choice
President Apollo, when you're ready, please post your choice.
BSG(Doctor Guilt)
Yikes. Is miracle theft a briggable offense?
In any case, Mr Prez, if you think you can handle the card loss, I can too.....
BSG (Apollo)
Okay, you guys, does anyone have any compelling arguments as to the identity of our hidden Cylon? I don't have very many cards, and what's left is pretty good; I don't know what Baltar's hand is like.
What's funny is that if we think Baltar is the Cylon, we shouldn't Brig him because then he
can
use his Reveal power.
In any case, Mr Prez, if you think you can handle the card loss, I can too.....
Good to know. I can handle it, but it's not optimal. I do want to open up the option for Brigging anyway.

I've been trying to guess card play vs card draw since that first spike. I haven't found any compelling evidence to point to any one person. IC's seem to have the best result, despite our lucky break last time.
What's funny is that if we think Baltar is the Cylon, we shouldn't Brig him because then he can use his Reveal power.
Huh. Well, if he is a Toaster, guess that means we gotta Airlock him. Where is Cally when you need her?
BSG (Leoben)
I don't think there's enough evidence to know for sure at this point.
BSG (Apollo)
I know I will regret this because we know for a fact we have someone who needs Brigging, but Brigging the wrong person won't be good for us. I choose
Option 2
and
discard XO-1 and MF-3.
BSG
Apollo chooses Reconciliation! Baltar's discards are:
Red Tape 0
Force Their Hand 0
Repair 2
Finally, the jump track advances. That concludes Baltar's turn. Hoshi's cards are going out. Admiral Hoshi, when you're ready, please post your move and action.
BSG

BSG (Adm. Louis Hoshi)
Huh. With nothing in the air, and nothing to fix. Not really sure what to do. I'm not keen on moving from where I am at, as once bogies appear, this is a good spot for me.
Anyone have any thoughts?
