Yeah, I definitely should have said something. I let RL distract me from the game, alas.

Would anyone like their toast burnt on one side?

Have you heard the one about the perpetual motion machine made out of a piece of buttered toast strapped to a cat's back?

Anyway, Pres. Apollo, can you handle discarding two cards? It seems like a pretty light price for 1 Food. And after that I agree with Admiral Z, let's get the frak out of here. We still don't know entirely what Athena wants out of life, and the rest of us may have hidden agendas of one kind or another, but we can be pretty sure who's a Cylon and who isn't, at least. Excelsior!

My answers to the Pop Quiz:

  • Everyone was like "it's over" but then Adama was like no way and the Cylons were like way but he was like way and it ruled

and

  • Because I could really use thy living quarters if thou happened to be a Cylon

"Faded like the lilac, he thought."

BSG (Apollo)

Oh, yeah, I meant to say, yeah, totally take the card loss, it's fine.

I'm gonna go with: science and science, I understand it not.

Ooh, Apollo has a complex relationship to science!

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

BSG

By which we mean that part of his relationship with science is real and part of it is imaginary.

Apollo chooses the card loss! That's two cards from Apollo and three from Zarek. However! Athena uses For Love. Zarek may discard only two cards instead. I have orders from both players, but not for the reduced discard. Zarek, please let me know which cards to discard.

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

BSG (Zarek)

Ooh, thanks, Athena! I discard RT-0, FTH-0.

Apollo discards:

Dogfight 0
Protect the Fleet 0

A Treachery card is going out to Athena.

Cally: PRESS THE BUTTON.

Zarek is trying to get all up on Cally, Sugababes style! [link] But the basestars interrupt his moves, with some of their own:

Basestar 1: 1. Miss.
Basestar 2: 7. Hit!

Alas, Zarek has been too busy being smoove to provide COs on this matter. Admiral Zarek, which battlestar shall bear the brunt?
