Now, I can hold a note for a long time...actually I can hold a note forever. But eventually that's just noise. It's the change we're listening for. The note coming after, and the one after that. That's what makes it music.

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

Can she be both? Seems wrong to have to choose.

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

I choose human!

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

I choose human!

Oh, ok, that was easy. Looks like I don't need these loyalty cards after heyyyyyyy, wait a minute! I see what you're doing there! Pfft. You'll be getting your two loyalty cards at the Sleeper phase and liking them, missy! I've half a mind to slap you in the Brig too, just to teach you a lesson!

Meanwhile, let's see what happened with the check. Everyone played one card except Adama, who played two. And here are the cards:

Yellow 1
Yellow 5
Green 1
Green 2
Green 4
Green 4
Purple 4
Red 2

Result: 21 - 2 = 19. Pass - no effect.

Rest of the card: there are no Cylon ships to activate, and jump prep advances one space. That concludes Boomer's turn. Apollo, I'm sending you your card draw. (Apollo have opted to draw a Yellow and a Green card this turn.) When you're ready, please post your move and action.

I left the top card where it was.

I'm out of control with this campaign I'm creating. I'm writing notes for tomorrow's session and every time I proofread I expand it. I'm starting to think our heroes will never reach the end.

Billy Tea cracks me up!

BSG

I move to weapons in anticipation of attack so I can be xo'd to fire on folks. While there ACTION I use my Y-1 to Consolidate Power (i.e. discard it to draw two more cards of any colour) and draw one yellow and one purple.

Let's see what crisis card boomer thought was cool to leave on top.

Keep in mind these are crisis cards. None of them are terribly cool.
