As soon as I get showered I will make my selection.

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

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

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

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

Let the record also show that ND favours five-hour long showers.

What can I say, I need to really scrub that human slime off of me.

Okay, I choose Samuel T. Anders

I'm just clarifying something with ND concerning his choice ("Is is true that the T in your name stands for Total Toaster?"), and then we'll move on to Liese's pick. For everyone else, if you haven't put in COs yet, my inbox stands ready.

Change of plans! ND has opted instead to play Brendan "Hot Dog" Costanza. Liese is next, and I have COs from her. Unfazed by his fate in the last game, she picks Lee "Newpollo" Adama. This is Apollo in his political incarnation. However, he still draws Red, and can pilot a viper if need be. Newpollo's starting draw is 2 Green, 1 Purple.

Next up is askye. Once again I have COs, and I would like you all to welcome our Cylon Leader: Sharon "Athena" Agathon! She starts the game infiltrating, so gets a three-card starting draw. Her draw will be 2 Red, 1 Green.

And nowe I've run out of COs. Well, that's not quite true. I have an email from omnis which I'm choosing to interpret as saying I can choose his character, based on whichever one is most likely to get him executed. But first off we have P-C. One might ask whether he even needs to choose a character, as they'll probably just get executed anyway, but the forms must be observed. P-C, when you're ready, please post your choice of character and starting draw. You may choose any military leader or support character.

Word from P-C: he chooses the newly refurbished military leader, Tom Zarek! Mutiny ahoy! His starting draw is 1 Yellow, 1 Green, 1 Purple.

omnis is next, and can take any character still unselected except for a Cylon leader.

BSG (Sorting Hat)

To keep things interesting, and balanced, and to get a good pick of cards for our crisis checks, I pick Callandra "Cally" Tyrol!

eta: I draw 1 yellow, 1 green, 1 purple
