Nice shooting Helo!
Boomer, you know piloting a ship against a Basestar will be risky at best. You gotta score a perfect shot.

Pete (or anybody w/an Xbox 360)...what wireless adapter do you have?
Before I got the U-verse, I had the Xbox connected to a Apple Airport Express. It gave N speed for the xbox, and offered an audio port for iTunes to play through. But now I have U-verse, so the router is right at the TV, so, hard wired now. But the Microsoft lil USB thing was about the same price, and only works with the Xbox. The Airport Extreme is useful in many other ways.
Xbox:
I just picked up Bioshock, in a combo pack with Oblivion. So far, creepy and fun. I'm not connected yet (I have to hard wire the xbox into the cable modem to go online, which kills wireless Internet in the house). But once I do put a more permanent connection in place, my xbox gamer tag is DarknessSMK.

This Cylon attack card effectively adds five heavy raiders to the board. There are, however, only four heavy raiders in the game. Adama, as current player, has the choice of which heavy to leave off; he has left off a heavy raider from Sector 3.
That concludes Adama's turn. Boomer, I'm sending you your card draw. When you're ready, please post your move and action.

I would like to go repair the hangar deck but I can't get out of this cell alone. Can I get a little help please?

Anyone have any thoughts on whether we think Boomer is a toaster?

Sector 6: Civilians C
Didn't we have a RSV in that sector? Or did he get moved to Sector 4? Confused. Work has been frelling with my head
Anyone have any thoughts on whether we think Boomer is a toaster?
To be honest, I had suspicions BEFORE the sleeper phase. We could use the repairs. But if she is a Cylon, now is NOT the time to let her loose.
BSG
Our hangar has been broken for a while so we've got no vipers in the air and no way to get them in the air that I know of.
As for Boomer, what raised your suspicions before the sleeper phase? I couldn't target anyone as a toaster at that point.
BSG

You're right, I don't know why I have it listed in Sector 4. That RSV should be in Sector 6. I'll fix the summary.
BSG
Boomer has the highest statistical likely-hood of being a toaster, though I haven't seen her do anything toastery. And we have at least one onboard at this stage of the game.
Honestly, no one has been behaving too suspicious though I do feel the need to mention that the only one who wasn't "able to help" in the open check was our Colonial President.
As much as I hate to potentially punish the incident, I can't help but think spending cards to spring the most-likely Cylon isn't a wise choice when no one else is acting particularly toasterish.
That and Boomer was voted "Most Likely to be a Genocidal Robot" in her yearbook.
