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

BSG ("Chief" Galen Tyrol)

Option 1 - Pass, please.

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

Oh, cool, is it that easy? Hurrah, we passed!

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

BSG

The check is on! Possible interrupts: IC, RO, ASC, Reckless. Everyone, please pass or play. You can also send me COs for the check itself. Romo plays first, Chief last.

Everyone passes on interrupts. Here we go:

Network Computers: 11 YPB

Destiny: 2 cards
Romo: 3 cards
Zarek: 2 cards
Kat: 1 card
Chief:

Aaaand we're almost done. Chief is last to play.

BSG

Chief adds 3 cards. Here's the play:

Consolidate Power 1
Preventative Policy 3
Investigative Committee 5
Launch Scout 1
Strategic Planning 4
Critical Situation 5
Scientific Research 3
Scientific Research 3
Raptor Specialist 3
Evasive Manoeuvre 1
Maximum Firepower 4

Tally: 28 - 5 = 23. Pass! The jump track advances by 1!

Then it advances by another one, because there's a jump icon. A jump icon on the Mutineer's turn, that means it's time for another mutiny card! Options are going out to Zarek. Citizen Zarek, when you're ready, please let me know which card to give to Chief.

Hurrah! Since we passed it by double, do we get 2 jump icons?

BSG ("Chief" Galen Tyrol)

Since we passed it, we do get two. Can we get four since we double passed?

It's looking like we all played as human, and Destiny hated us. I think we just need to work on our vague communications so we stop over passing.

Zarek has made his choice. Card sent. That concludes Chief's turn. Romo's cards are going out. Romo, when you're ready, please post your move and action.
