As a first pass, I've started putting the number of cards everyone holds in the end of turn summaries. You can take a look at that for a start. (Keep in mind everyone's skill set. For instance, Laura Roslin draws just Yellow and Green; Boomer only Purple, Red and Blue.)
BSG
I can't find the character sheets in my rules. Adama, can you help me? Laura? You don't think I'm the traitor, do you?
BSG
I am out of cards since I haven't had a turn yet. No help from me. 8 shouldn't be too hard to hit as a challenge, though. Roslin has 7 green and yellow cards in her hand alone, and Adama certainly has at least 2 green. If, for some reason, we end up losing the challenge (which would certainly indicate some serious Cylon saboteur activity) , don't throw either me or Roslin in the brig; we have the most cards of the right colors to get the person out. If we are in the brig, we can only play one card, limiting our effectiveness.

Nah, just funnin'.
For now.....

Oh yeah, I can and will help out on this check.

I'm not 100% sure, but I think I have conditional orders from Baltar: Choose the Skill Check: 8 YG.
We start, once more, by asking for interrupts (twelve hours to respond). For all players (except Apollo, who's out of cards), please post whether you play or pass on Investigative Committee and/or Scientific Research.
BSG
Yes, skill check it is.
Completely out of game....
If this BSG game turns out to be successful (and not overly annoying to other thread members), anybody want to take a crack at playing Republic of Rome online? I'll mod (which means I won't be able to play directly). Sure, nobody else has a set, but I don't think that would be too much of a problem.
Just throwing that out there. Four or five players would be ideal.
Yes! I'm having fun. I think I'd love to try something else.

I'd need to see how my study load is going, but I'd certainly be interested.

You can also send me conditional orders on what you'll play into the Skill Check. (Again, except Apollo, who's out of cards.)
