No interrupts from Apollo. We all know how this is going to go down, and while my jaw remains resolutely set, you can see the pain deep in my puppy eyes as I watch the very fabric of our cherished democracy ripped apart by this brutal rape of civil liberties.
Blind accusations are ripping this fleet apart. I don't know *what* to think. Clearly there is a traitor amongst us. We must defend. But we must not loose our humanity.
Lt. Valerii, pull yourself together! This isn't L.A. and the Rodney King "why can't we all just get along" business doesn't pass muster! We are military officers in a time of war and we have a duty to protect this fleet and the few civilian survivors that the President hasn't already ordered abandoned in prior crisis checks. We still have incoming hostiles and I need you to suit up and get ready to fly, pilot. Are we clear? I need you to have a level head and a steady hand out there, Boomer.
And if it makes you feel any better, under the current Administration, the brig is probably the only place that Baltar is going to be safe from a freak and tragic airlock "accident."
Hey guys, the Adamas are currently without home internet thanks to a malfunctioning routerand we probably won't get a replacement for at least 2 more days. With the help of 60mg of methadone and a whack to the back of the head with a softball bat I got Raq into a cold tub last night to fight off the fever sweats of withdrawal, but it was rough going.
I have a connection at work, but Raq's connectivity will be intermittent at best (Itouch and Starbucks, I suspect), so bear with us as we'll probably be a drag on the game until we are back up and running.

So now we're just waiting on Madam President herself to pass or play on interrupts.
Hi - I'm waving briefly from work, where I'm stealing someone else's connection. The shakes were getting too bad.

billytea, I think Adama can't ACTIVATE the Admiral's Quarters, but can still participate, right?

Absolutely. His Emotional Attachment only lasts until he sees someone else picking on 'em, then he joins right in. Not much of a friend, really, when you think about it.

I think that's been sufficient time for interrupts. Let's begin the Check. Destiny adds two cards, of course; I have COs from Dr Baltar, who also adds 2 cards. Apollo is next. We will conclude with President Roslin. As always, you can post here the number of cards you play; email me with the details.
Destiny:
2 cards
Baltar:
2 cards
Apollo:
Boomer:
Adama:
Roslin:
So this isn't one of those games where I run out of cards and get to draw more, is it?

Well, your turn's up next. Even if the check is successful and you wind up in the Brig, you'll get to draw a full hand.

I know by the odds of the card draw I'm twice as likely to be a cylon as Roslin but c'mon you guys- we're gamers. How often does playing the odds really pay off?
