Good ones! I'm also liking "Notorious RPG"

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

Back to the rebrigging of Boomer. I have orders from the three remaining players. Plays are:

Destiny: 2 cards
Boomer: 3 cards
Adama: 1 card
Roslin: No cards
Baltar: 1 card
Apollo: No cards

Results:

Purple 3
Yellow 2
Red 3
Red 3
Red 3
Blue 1
Blue 2

Tally: 3 - 14 = 11. Fail - Boomer stays free.

Apollo is also out of the Brig, so he draws a Crisis Card:

Guilt by Collusion
Skill Check (9 GP)

Once again, we pause for interrupts (Investigative Committee and Scientific Research).

BSG.

So, in the middle of this massive series of attacks, we've spent what, six, seven rounds shoving each other in and out of the brig? That's frakkin' brilliant, people.

Perhaps this is a good time to point out that, other than attempting to brig Baltar (which was done at the behest of military command), I have primarily been a victim of this massive internment pogrom. Also, it was through my efforts that Lt. Valerii was sprung, so that at least somebody besides the allegedly cylon and demonstrably unbalanced "Acting Admiral" could be on the outside. However, I would like to point out that since it's possible that both cylons are on the outside now, maybe we should think about putting a third person out of the brig.

So, you know.... any time you guys want to try and spring the President from the pokey, I'd appreciate that. Then maybe we can see about freeing and even reinstating our former Admiral to his rightful place.

At the very least, I suggest we fail this check. I'm not excited about Apollo getting to brig Boomer for free.

Non-BSG:

I finished Fable 2. My female paragon of good character. She was a lesbian vegetarian polygamist. I own Fairfax Castle, and basically everything else in the world, and have the title of Queen.

I found all the gargoyles and all the silver keys. I think there is one chest left I haven't figured out how to get to - it was in Fairfax Tomb, behind a huge pile of rubble.

My dog is dead, though. :(

And I didn't open all the Demon Doors.

I did have to take a moment, save the game, wait for a huge crowd of upper class twits to gather around me, turn the safetly off, and go on a massive slaughter spree. That was fun.

I'm all for getting more folks OUT to help with the toaster-head, resurrection shipped, version 2 CAG-turned-Admiral. But, I can't say with certainty the original Admiral is without Cylon ties.

In the meantime, bt, my CO have been sent. No interrupts.
