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

BSG

Skill check begins! As an IC has been played, all cards are played face up. The order is as follows:

Destiny: P2, R1 (Tally: -3)
Roslin:
Baltar:
Apollo:
Boomer:
Adama:

President Roslin, what do you want to play?

move out and draw fire

BSG

Actually, since it's Adama's crisis card draw, and he is an Inspirational Leader, we're just at -2 from the Destiny Deck.

Bah. I'd forgotten about that. Indeed; as this is a skill check from a crisis card drawn by Admiral Adama, all cards of value 1 count as positive, no matter the colour.

The current tally is therefore -1, President Roslin to play.

So dump those reds, blues, and purples that never come up in skill checks!

Ninja'd by a dying woman! I have some COs too. So, state of play is:

Destiny: P2, R1
Roslin: Y5
Baltar: Y1
Apollo: Nothing (Tally: 5)
Boomer:
Adama:

Boomer is up next. All 1-value cards count positive, regardless of colour.

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

Ooo! Good to know! I play a Blue 1 card then, and happily know I'm helping not hurting. Adama, you are a true inspiration!

BSG

With Boomer's play, current tally is 6. Adama has left COs:

Play P1, P1, G2.

Total:

10 - Pass (No effect)

Wrapping up the rest of the card:

Cylon activation: Heavy Raiders (no effect)

Jump Prep Track: Yes. You have reached the end of the track - Jump! Admiral Adama, I am sending you two destinations. Please post your choice.

Finally, that skill check exhausted the Destiny Deck. I have formed a new Destiny Deck. Doing this exhausted the Leadership Deck, so I've reshuffled the discards to replenish it.

I thought someone moved to command to launch those 2 RSV's??
