I'm still traumatized by that.Just think of it as "**REDACTED** with Bullets", and then it's not traumatizing, but SEXY!
(oh look, I may have just crossed over the line.)
Everybody dies, Tracey. Someone's carrying a bullet for you right now, doesn't even know it. The trick is to die of old age before it finds you.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
yeah that it not a word I expected to see in Game chat. Not sure how others will feel but I would err on the safer side and take it down.

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

Aww yiss. I have received a reply from both Liese and -t, and they are in. This means that we will have a seven-player game. That has two implications:
1. We will have a Cylon leader. If no one has chosen a Cylon leader by player seven, they will be obliged to pick one. To date, the following players have not played a Cylon leader: NoiseDesign, Polter-Cow, omnis and askye.
2. That will leave six other players. Four against two is regarded as unbalanced against the Cylons, and goodness knows we can't have that. We therefore need a balancing mechanism. In the base game that was the Sympathiser, but Daybreak gives us a new one of those too - the Mutineer. The Mutineer can hold an extra mutiny card without getting brigged, but they also draw mutiny cards more often. Is it a good balancing mechanism? I've no idea! Think of the fun we'll have, finding out.
I'll be sending out the game files now, and we can get into character selection. Daybreak is large with the new character options, including four totally new characters (of which two, Cottle and Hoshi, appeared in both games 18 and 19), four repurposed characters from the base game (three of which, Apollo, Baltar and Helo, were in last game) and four new Cylon leaders. The player order is:
NoiseDesign
Liese S.
askye
Polter-Cow
omnis
-t
Laga
ND, you're up first. Everyone else, you can send me COs for your preferences if you wish. Don't forget your starting draw as well. (Three cards from your regular draw).

I've cleared the old spreadsheet,and I am all ready for this next round... Just waiting to fill in character names... ::tries to be patient::
I just know a flurry of action is going to happen, as I become busy all day, and then slow down things. Aaaarggh.
(I swear, I haven't had too much coffee this morning, as I don't drink the stuff)

Let the record show that ND is preparing for the game by cleansing himself of the human stain.

Let the record show that omnis hasn't even received a loyalty card and is already attempting to divert suspicion.
