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

Further investigation into the buoyancy properties of President Tigh:

1. Ducks have feathers.

2. Hope is the thing with feathers.

3. Hope floats.

4. President Tigh is a swapping, swapping mallard.

Therefore, president Tigh floats.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

No interrupts here.

No, I don't think I will - me, quoting Captain Steve Rogers, to all of 2020

Buddy of mine showed me Batman: Arkham Asylum the other day.

He said: "You know, they have a PC version of this."

I said: "Do they now?"

$220 later, the Batcomputer is ready.

Oh dear. You could almost have bought a 360 for that.

Still, it's an investment, right?

Hell of a game, BTW.

Everyone passes on interrupts. Tigh fires at the heavy raider.

Die roll: 1. Miss. Tigh, announcing that he "got the one on the left", does a victory shimmy. Helo leaves COs: use his reroll.

Die roll II: 8. Tigh gets the one on the right too! Heavy raider destroyed.

Helo's Crisis card is:

Keep Tabs on Visitor
Current Player's Choice

Helo, when you're ready please post your choice.

bt, it's my choice, but I can confer with the humans, right?

What do you think humans? With our population so low, I'm thinking option 2. As much as I like to horde cards, and not like the random giving up aspect, I really don't want to risk the population.

I'm loathe to ask a teammate to make such a sacrifice, but i'd rather not leave it to chance.

Ooh! Ooh! I can help with the skill check! Go skill check. Choose skill check!

Or maybe you should discard a bunch of cards. I promise I won't try to escape the Brig next turn, so it's not like you will need them. When have I lied to you?
