Golly, I hope your boy isn't a toaster. Does this make him Admiral AND President??
No, just Admiral. Roslin is still President. Being brigged strips you of the Admiral's title, but not of the Presidency.
Actually, I was thinking it would be sort of like a pet. You know, we could...we could name her Trixie, or Miss Kitty Fantastico, or something.

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

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
how is Guitar Hero: World Tour?
I love it. And it does have DLC. We've even got a couple of Raconteurs songs. On the ther hand- we just bought Smash Hits and I'm unimpressed by it. Pretty crappy song selection, imo.

That's quite possible, though I will note that a player in the Brig can still receive an XO from another player, and may use that XO to attempt to escape from the Brig. Indeed, they get two actions, so they can make two attempts if necessary. Finally, since moving out of the Brig is part of the Brig action (if successful), they would still have an extra action if they succeed on the first attempt.

I wish PS3 was a less expensive system. I've been wishing that for, oh, a year. I just want to play LBP, dudes. RELEASE IT ON ANOTHER PLATFORM.

"Attention, Galactica. Uhm, hi, everyone... This is your new Admiral speaking. Well, gosh -- how is everyone tonight? Good, good, that's great! Anyone from out of town? Sagit... no, Caprica, you say? Hey, fantastic! I hear Caprica's a totally rad place now! Really hot, you know?
*rim shot*
Seriously, relax and have a good time tonight, you whacky Cappy, you. We love ya. Seriously.
So, anyone having that meatloaf the galley is serving for dinner? Yeah? Still don't believe in a cylon secret weapon? Talk about a heavy raider in the launch tube, am I right or am I right? I'll be repelling boarders all night, that's all I'm saying. But hey, I'm just kidding, eat up, folks and remember to tip yourself, you're working hard tonight.
So, yeah, I'm glad you all could be here with me tonight on Galactica. She's a ship with a long history, and I thought I would sing you a little something that's sure to bring back some memories of happier days aboard this baby. Sure brought back some for me! I hope you all enjoy it...
Hit it, boys!
*oooh ooooh ooooh ooooh AAAHH!*
chicka wacka, chicka wacka, chicka wacka!
Loooove; exciting and new,
Come aboard! We're expecting yooooooou!
And looooooove, life's sweetest reward.
Let it flow; it floats back to you.
Galactica! Soon will be making another run!
Galactica! Promises something for everyone...
Set a course for adventure,
Your mind on a new romance.
And looooove won't hurt anymore,
It's an open smile, on a friendly shore!
It's LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOVE!
Welcome aboard, it's LoooooooooooooOOOOOOOOO-UUUHV!!
Galactica Actual, out."

I cannot believe 4 out of the 5 players are in the Brig, you dirty toaster-lovin' frakkers..
Of course, after Apollo's address, it may be the only safe place.

From the safe lurky space, I think it's totally hilarious that you are all in the Brig. Paranoia, yay!
