ya, and no offense to anyone, but InfidelKiller... um, how to say? Dude is paranoid, and comes off as really desperate. His current "alliance" option is "I don't share any borders with him, but I think we should stop attacking each other and go after him". Huh? How will you do that????
Jayne: Captain, can you stop her from bein' cheerful, please? Mal: I don't believe there is a power in the 'verse that can stop Kaylee from being cheerful. Sometimes you just wanna duct tape her mouth and dump her in the hold for a month.

You guys crack me up. And Omnis, sounds like a break is a good idea, especially since you don't want to be caught hanging around with a toaster.

Not a break from BSG, a break from Conquer Club.

I know you're taking a break from Conquer Club, but you're playing it with Sean, hence the toaster comment.
What, you can't handle cross-game humor? Need your brains re-fragged?

I think they are fragged enough. Wait? so ? you are saying Sean is a TOASTER???

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
Sean said as much. So what's it gonna be? Send Madame de Toast to the brig or attack a basestar?

Ya, I know, that was a tired attempt at sarcasm.
BSG
I'm torn between going to weapons and trying to attack a basestar and brigging the other toaster. That said, I'm not sure what it takes to brig her, and if I have any cards to help in that endeavor. I'd hate to waste an XO if we can't pull it off, and you two can only play one card, and Mdm Pres can play as many as she wants.
(sucks being a Libra sometimes... too many options just makes the scales bounce back and forth and not settle on any one side).

I assure you he is neither paranoid, nor desperate. However, like me, he is out to win. And the one and only way to win is to eliminate all other players. Not holding continents, not making and keeping alliances, not any of that. You can't trust him (when playing Risk) and you can't trust me.
However NOTHING I say in chat is personal or serious, and nothing he says in chat is personal or serious. We both try to reign it in with other people (people outside of the group we play with), but once you've played with somebody there, it's easy to forget, and start playing the no-holds-barred, ultra trash talk games we're used to.
Like Buffistas, we sometimes forget other people are not us.

In my head, I picture him running around flailing his arms over his head, screaming like chicken little that the sky will thwap us ALL if we don't team up against "x" player. Just makes me wanna thwap him and say "shut up and play". Alas. I don't.

I've been trying to as often as I can, ever since I caught on to his "Let's try and manipulate the other players into doing my dirty work through chat" plan.
