President Zarek has drawn a second Quorum card.
Time for a crisis. Looks like (stop me if you've heard this one) one ship didn't make the jump. But now they're back on DRADIS and heading your way. Dr Baltar is convinced the ship is now full of zombies waiting to eat your braaaaains. Will the fleet listen to him and destroy it?
The Olympic Carrier
Skill Check 11 YGR
Possible interrupts are Investigative Committee and Scientific Research. Everyone, please pass or play.
BSG
I wish I could interrupt. Boy howdy, now is the time. That said, I can help some on this one.
BSG
No interrupts here. I can help a little with the check.
Sorry, no Investigative Committee here either.
I've got a few cards for the check. Difficulty 11 isn't that bad either.
BSG
I now have passes on interrupts from everyone, so let's start the check. I have COs from Adama, so we're up to Boomer. A reminder, as Boomer is in the Brig she is limited to a maximum of one card into the check.

Hey, look at that! They're not zombies after all, they've just been watching a 48-hour

marathon.
Tally:
30 - 2 = 28. Pass, a lot - no effect.
Finally, the jump prep advances by 1. That concludes Zarek's turn. Admiral Adama, I'm sending you your card draw. When you're ready, please post your move and action.

Administrative note: Zarek's card draw last turn exhausted the Leadership deck. I've reshuffled the discards.
BSG
Okay, who do we have that can do some repair work? Is it only Boomer who is now in the Brig? Do we dare free the possible toaster from the Brig?
BSG
I am the only player who draws blue cards but I only draw one at a time and at the moment I don't have any. You can draw blue in the Research lab which is not to say you shouldn't also spring me. I swear I'm not a cylon.
Are there definitely two toasters or could we just have one? I noticed that at most, one player spiked that check.
