I'm double checking with BT, but I'm pretty sure I can't help with this check at all.

I have no cards to help. So we die of thirst and run out of gas? Talk about crappy ending.
We're in a tight spot, kids.

Some of you will be kept alive for an experimental breeding program.

This is just what we need, President Tigh talking up his 'child-bearing hips'.

Whoo-hoo! Now can someone get me out of this stupid cage? I finally got my hairstyle just the way I like it and would hate to start over in a new body.
ETA: I do have to say Team Human got a really sucky string of crisises they never had a chance to recover from. With how crappy things were right off the bat team Cylon may have been better served to give up all pretenses and just go for the jugular. (Though at the time I'm sure we both thought we were a team of 1.)
Serial because this deserves it's own post:
Thanks Billytea for running the game. I had a lot of fun. And thanks for humoring my various sinister plots that never ended up coming to fruition.

They really did. Especially at the death, Legendary Discovery followed by Scouting for Water was just impossible for them to escape. They both demanded Purple and Red cards to pass. Either the humans pass LD and avoid the Food loss, then fail SfW and lose all their Fuel; or they fail LD and Food drops to 1, and then Chief chooses option 2 on SfW and they lose the last Food.
