Why is that a fail? I thought the check was a 7.

Oh, I see. We got a 0, not a 7.

And there is more than two bad cards in there, which means one was added by one of us.

Ya, I noticed that too. I didn't toss in. We know it's not the Admiral. :: suspiciously glares at others in virtual table ::

I have a movement, and an action. I opt to stay put in the hanger. My action is play the Blue card that allowed me to repair some vipers. I believe it was a Blue2.

:: grumbes... first I, a Raptor pilot, blow up the Toaster Mother Ship alone, then I try and save CAG, ALONE, now I gotta fix all the other broken Vipers, ALONE. There is a Toaster in our midsts, and it's pissing me off ::

We do have a cylon amongst us, at least one, and we know the following; it isn't Bill Adama and it isn't Boomer (at least not in this check.) We also know that it is very likely that the deck turned against us, because we had been skating by for quite some time.

Me, I've got my eye on you, Roslin. Baltar, you too. Roslin, there is something strange about the way you were all too happy to burn those investigative committee cards, valuable yellow cards. Baltar, frankly you have a greater chance of being a cylon than the rest of us, and you have been pretty quiet there in the lab.

Therefore I propose we have a change of presidency. I am happy to make either Adama or Boomer the president. I am not certain enough to brig either of my toaster candidates, but I think that I am suspicious enough to want to see the presidency move to someone I trust absolutely.

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

Boomer has repaired 2 Vipers. And not a moment too soon. Her Crisis card is:

Cylon Swarm
Cylon Attack! Space fills with the angry hum of Raiders heading for the Civilian ships. (I'll send details by email shortly).

Cylon attack cards do not contain a Cylon activation at card's end, nor do they advance the Jump Prep. Therefore this ends Boomer's turn. Summary to follow.

I will draw a Green card.

Then I will swear like the military careerist I am. Cylon Swarm is really frakking bad news.

Holy frak!! Glad I fixed those vipers. I think making me president is bad, as we need me in a viper, especially now!! I'm already at the hanger, if that helps things along.

ION, in my flickr (bchas), are pics of me and Laga at airlocks. Not BSG airlock, but close enough.

Problem is, Grease Monkey, this is your crisis, which means that you won't be going anywhere for a while. However, the point of giving you the presidency isn't for you to take action, but to keep a potential toaster from taking action with the presidency that would be detrimental to us all. If we offer you the presidency, you'll take it and like it.

However, Admiral, if you wish to assume the presidency, I will back your play. Otherwise we gotta keep our fingers crossed.

Commander Adama, I assure you in the strongest possible terms that you replace me at all our peril. That you would even consider such a rash action at a time like this is folly in the extreme. And if you do choose to do this, Lee, you damn well better throw me in the brig, or I will round up the biggest, meanest specialists I can find and put you out the nearest airlock, then walk into the mess and have a sandwich.
