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

BSG

Everyone passes on interrupts.

Die roll = 5. Pass! Fuel increases to 8! So that's nice.

That also concludes Romo's turn. Zarek's cards are going out. Citizen Zarek, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

Well, I'm not likely to get a better chance to do this so: I will Move to Tactical Plot to be XO'd to try and get us a better Mission, and Play my Mutiny Card: Feed the People.

Zarek gives the people their fill... of Mutiny! As you can imagine, that makes him one popular guy. Yes, in no time at all he (and the rest of you) are:

Surrounded
Cylon Attack

The people demand more! Even the shiny people. Zarek will need to discard three skill cards to placate them. Citizen Zarek, when you're ready, please post your discards.

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

BSG (Romo)

Aaargh. At least we got some resources.

I can help on an XO. Whatever, Raiders, I'm a fightin' Prez.

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

BSG ("Chief" Galen Tyrol)

Crap! Well, at least we got some resources boosted. Good job, team!

Now. Let's see if we can get those civilians some breathing room, and maybe fire on that big star thingy.

Non-BSG! (whaaa?)

We had a fun game night, in person! Sunil was in town. Sean, Noise Design, Pix, and myself, at Chez PixDesigns. We played a few rounds of Coup! That was fun. After that, Pix sat out as we played 7 Wonders. Once I got the hang of it, it was fun too! All in all a fun night. Plus some yummy cookies home made by Pix!
