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

BSG (Romo)

I oppose Option 1 because I am clinging to the Presidency for the good of Team Human, but I can understand that Zarek, if human, would consider taking the Presidency for the good of Team Human. I don't think I've done anything suspicious, so I would suggest we keep the balance of power.

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

BSG ("Chief" Galen Tyrol)

I think a balance of power is key. Especially since we only have 4, with a chance 1 of us could be(come) Cylon.

BSG(Admiral Innocent-as-a-Lamb)

Yeah, I don't see any reason to take the Presidency in an arbitrary and unforseen fashion(glares).

I choose Option 2.

Yeah, that would be a boneheaded move that would backfire on you and cause everyone to think you're a Cylon and then kill you.

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

BSG

But would wackiness ensue? It'd all be worth it if wackiness ensues.

Zarek chooses to put a little more Treachery in his life! His discard is:

Major Victory 2

Treachery has gone out. Finally, the raiders advance. That concludes Zarek's turn. Kat's cards are going out. Kat, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

BSG (Kat in a hot tin bird)

Back to the sky for me, I will launch in an Assault Raptor into Sector 5 and move to Sector 4
