The Ghost of Apollo Past is whispering in Zarek's ear.

Clearly some kind of cross-dimensional Cylon mindmeld.

The popcorn is probably radioactive, Omnis.

No Problem Pete, got that covered.

At this point, I suspect Helo lives on radiation. Taking away the popcorn kills him...it...whatever.

Okay I see what you meant about italics for OOC now, you were referring to the "BSG" header.

Hm, what does everyone else think of that? Bold for in-character, italics for out of character. Seems tricky if you want to say things in & out in the same post. Maybe just starting in character with the character's name? Hm, don't know. Time for caffeine.

Then do whatever you want.

I find it incredibly difficult to respond to the game if I don't know when I'm dealing with a player, vs totally-not-supported-by-the-rules character chatter. If it's too difficult, then just don't do it.

I may have to stop doing anything other than email with bt anyway to progress in this game.

That would be a shame, but we all have to manage the timesuck. And of course, Zerek going quiet is a very scary proposition. What is he planning? ;)

I think I'll do In Character stuff like this -

Get that leg sown up! I've a ship to run!
