You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

We did end up going to the game store where they had a die rolling tower for sale but luckily I decided it was too silly and did not buy it.

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

I've sent Dr Baltar his cards. As he's still in the Brig, that concludes his turn. Captain Apollo, your turn is starting. Please advise which cards you would like to draw.

Description is:

Since high school, a group of friends has been playing the game Demons, Nymphs and Dragons, and they're finally about to break the world record for total hours played. A documentary crew follows this set of geeks as they prepare to make history. Kelly LeBrock, William Katt, John Heard and Beverly D'Angelo co-star in this send-up about fantasy nerds from writer and director Christopher Folino.
