We're still working on a plan, but so far it involves being sent to prison and becoming somebody's bitch.

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

We have one last interrupt: Athena plays a Restore Order 3. Skill check effects have no effect here. The check begins!

Edit: I want to check something with a couple of players before we start.

Ok, I have everything sorted out. Here we go:

Cylon Accusation: 10 YGP

Cally: Consolidate Power 2, Dradis Contact 0
Baltar:

Hm. No cards.

I have everyone's play:

Cylon Accusation: 10 YGP

Destiny: 2 cards
Apollo: Declare Emergency 3, At Any Cost 4, Dradis Contact 0
Athena: 0 cards
Zarek: Consolidate Power 1, Popular Influence 3, Executive Order 1
Cally: Consolidate Power 2, Dradis Contact 0
Baltar: 0 cards
Romo: Investigative Committee 4
Hot Dog: 0 cards

Running tally: 18 + Destiny. As long as Destiny is greater than -9, Hot Dog's reign of terror will continue uninterrupted! Destiny reveals:

Executive Order 2
Dradis Contact 0

Tally: 20. Pass! Hot Dog brigged? The crew won't have it!

Next, we have DC-0s from no less than three sources, including Destiny. That means we should put two raiders in Sector 1 - where the crisis card activation will see them destroy civilian ship G. However, Athena played a Restore Order 3 on this check, which means that skill check effect cards do nothing. Civvie G survives the turn!

They look a bit lonely, though. The raider activation moves the raiders from Sector 2 into Sector 1 with them. That almost concludes Hot Dog's turn. However, he finishes with 12 cards in hand and must therefore discard two of them. Hot Dog, when you're ready, please post your choice of discard.

Hot Dog discards:

Trust Instincts 0
Evasive Manoeuvre 1

That concludes Hot Dog's turn. Apollo has opted to draw 2 Green for his variable draw. President Apollo, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

BSG (Apollo)

Ok, so I can xo hot dog for more sky damage or zarek for increasing resources. What say you all?

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

BSG (Zarek)

I vote for me because I am me. Also because Population is our highest resource.

BSG (Baltar)

Phew. I don't know. How confident do we feel in Jumping with the next Crisis? I'm not too sanguine, but that's not based on anything. And how much do we care about Civvie G over there?

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

Hmm, ok. In the interest of time (I'm on the road) I'm going to go shared and play my xo on zarek. I will then activate the office to draw 2y.
