I don't know what you mean, Ex-Madame President. I thankfully am not part of your Cylon-infested universe.

Still, maybe next time, if you guys play again and I can find some way of not impacting my stupid deadlines further.

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

Deadlines schmedlines. You said you spent the whole day painting. What's more important, another coat of red or black on the living room walls, or playing BSG?

ION, my copy of Batman: Arkham Asylum is being overnighted to me.

I will be sneaking a full gaming hours in late each night after finishing painting. Hopefully.

ETA: I think you already have your answer, Omnis.

move out and draw fire

BSG

Wow, I hadn't planned for this contingency. I'll move to the Science Lab.

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

BSG

Adama's out! Which means he gets a Crisis Card, and it is:

Scouting for Fuel
Current Player's Choice

Staff Sgt Adama, when you're ready please post your choice.

Edit: the choice is either a skill check or a die roll, so I'm also opening the call for interrupts. Human crew, send me COs on whether you wish to play an interrupt in either case, or if you pass.

I'll go with the Skill Check for 12, Alex.

(remember, team, all 1s count positive regardless of color)

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

BSG

no interrupts from Baltar and I can help a little on the skill check.

And then Ortus came and said "It's Ortin' time" and they all Orted off into the sunset

Grr-Arghhh was just beaten in a match-up of club v feather duster. So embarrassing!

Remember that the frontier of the Rebellion is everywhere. And even the smallest act of insurrection pushes our lines forward.

That's a feather duster? I thought it was celery.

I couldn't decide and so ultimately came down on the side of feather duster being a marginally better weapon.
