Not so fast Mr Haig. First, a vote.

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

What do you think, enough time for interrupts? I think that's enough time for interrupts. Admiral Apollo is seeking the Presidency; the skill check (5YG) starts here. Boomer plays first, Apollo will finish the check. Everyone in the Brig is limited to playing up to one card into the check. In turn, please post the number of cards you wish to play, and send me the details. You can send me COs before it's your turn to play too.

Destiny: 2 cards
Boomer:
Adama:
Roslin:
Baltar:
Apollo:

Because he's the admiral, do all 1 cards count positive? What if we don't want them to?

I think no: That's Bill Adama's special power, not the Admiral's. Also, that power is just for crisis card checks.

Correct on both counts. (His power works automatically though, so for skill checks from Crisis Cards on Adama's turn, you don't have the choice as to whether your 1 card counts positive - it will.)

President Roslin, it's your turn to play into the check.

This check is YG, right? I have nothing but positive cards to add to this check, so I will play, oh, um, let me think about this for a second....

NO CARDS.

Hmph.

Admiral Apollo, you will conclude this check.
