Shush, you. I still have tens of thousands of songs to sing. Don't make me pull out the microphone again! See those two basestars? Ginormous speakerstacks in each one.

Raq, I seem to recall at one point you posting a link to awesomely cool playing card decks. I thought it was here, but maybe it was in Bitches.
Wherever that was, do you remember the site you linked to? Can you link it again? My poker group needs some new cards, and I was telling them about the decks you'd found. I'd like to share those links with them.

move out and draw fire
We got ours from ellusionist.com
We also got the Black Alchemy deck from Vampire.co.uk [link] although this one we use for initiative draws in PnP RPGs.

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

Results of the attempt to debrig Boomer:
Yellow 5
Purple 1
Purple 2
Purple 3
Purple 5
Green 2
Green 3
Green 4
Blue 4
Tally = 16 - 13 = 3. Fail.
Boomer, you're still in the Brig, and you have a second action. Try again, or a different action?

That's what I was thinking.

What else do you have to do?
If this is a serious question, the answer's along these lines:
1. Bleed the Cylons of cards. You pull 14 cards per cycle, they pull 7. With XOs you can make five attempts per cycle. You're not likely to get out while Roslin's sitting on 8 or 9 cards. You might get out when she's down to 2 or 3. (This time, they put in four cards stopping you, you put in three.)
2. Use the fact that they won't play last. If they go in hard, you save your cards. If they hold back, go for it.
3. Pray for a favourable Destiny Deck.
4. As the above points might make clear, don't necessarily expect to get out on the first go. It may take a few attempts.
