Ok, I'm back home now. Let's see what this Skill Check produces:
Cylon Accusation
10 YGP
Destiny:
2 cards
Roslin:
No cards
Baltar:
No cards
Apollo:
1 card
Boomer:
1 card
Adama:
3 cards
Cards:
Yellow 4
Green 5
Purple 1
Purple 1
Purple 2
Red 2
Blue 3
Tally:
13 - 5 = 8.
Fail.
You have failed this Skill Check by 2 points. That means that a Declare Emergency interrupt may be played to lower the difficulty by 2, in which case you will pass after all. We will pause for twelve hours for everyone to play or pass on a DE (except Boomer, who's never drawn Green).

These are baseless attacks against my father! He is not a cylon! This is madness! We must not succumb to this mass hysteria! If you listen to fools the mob rules! Can't we all just get along??!!??
However, I have no cards to prevent this from happening...
If you didn't get penalized for hitting the bass pedal unnecessarily I'd be a Guitar Hero drumming god.
On the other hand, if I, didn't get penalized for randomly hitting my bass player, I'd be a Rock Band drumming god.
But otherwise, how is Guitar Hero: World Tour? Raq and I started with GHIII, but moved to Rock Band and have stayed with that franchise ever since. We've invested so much in DLC that I doubt we'll ever switch, but there are a few things wrong with RB2 (especially with how little control you have have over your own playlist on tour).

Ha, I was wondering what that was.

Also, Too Much Metal and not enough new clothes.

Um, what's DLC?
So far, I only have a few of the Guitar Hero games. None of the full band things. Although, playing the Beatles catalog might get me to fork out some cash.
Download Content. In this case, the hundreds of songs that Harmonix has released since the game came out
playing the Beatles catalog might get me to fork out some cash.
I suspect this will be the case, as I think the Beatles game itself will ship with about 40 songs, and the rest of the catalog will be released in dribs and drabs as DLC.

OK, if I end up in the brig, let's brig Lee also, and then have a mini-game inside the brig. Charades, maybe.

Golly, I hope your boy isn't a toaster. Does this make him Admiral AND President??
OK, I'll go first: 2 words, 1 word = 3 syllables.

No, just Admiral. Roslin is still President. Being brigged strips you of the Admiral's title, but not of the Presidency.
