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

Yay team cylon! I was disappointed to be a cylon at first but it turned out to be really fun. Still, humanity losing twice in a row is a bummer. I, for one, am up for a rematch.

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.

I'd also love to play again if BT is up to it. Would definitely like to play a human and have to experience all the paranoia. Plus, it'd be nice to enjoy shooting down raiders instead of just doing it to avoid blowing my cover.

There was little paranoia for the humans this time. Just desperation.

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

Indeed. I found it ironic that the failed Detector Sabotage check, which ensured the Cylons' loyalty cards could never be checked, is what allowed the humans to work out who the two Cylons were.

Anything for a weird life.

So, none of them can ever get home, but the 3 people left are feeling mighty fine about it. I don't think Morale is supposed to end that high.

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

at least, with no fuel, we can't spin up the drives, so maybe it will be harder for the cylons to find us. Sure we don't reach "earth", but we end with NO cylons in space around us!

The morale is high because of the captive breeding program.

I was pretty sure there was a second Cylon before that, but I was convinced it was Starbuck. Which is why I threw in Yellow as my spike card instead of Red, so as to potentially implicate Zarek or the Chief. But then Zarek had to ruin it by not playing any cards and the decision implicated both of the real Cylons.

Yes I thought that would hurt us but fate was against the humans.
