Fred: So you don't worry that it's possible for someone to send out a biological or electronic trigger that effectively overrides your own sense of ideals and values and replaces them with an alternative coercive agenda that reduces you to a mindless meat puppet? Shopkeeper: Wow. People used to think that I was paranoid.

Yeah, there are more than a few suspicious activities going on around this check. Boomer is not making a good case for her not being a cylon with this check.

ETA Wait, I want to keep the XO card, let's play G3, P1, P1

That way y'all can save your big card for other checks. I gotta dump cards anyhow, or random will get pulled from me.

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

Edit: ok, not right. Hang on a moment while I sort out the details.

Ha. Cross posting and e-mailing. Ya, BT, I realized after I played the first time that I wanted the XO, and the second time, that I needed to dump 3 cards, so the third time is the charm.

Ok, one detail I need to check on. My previous count of your hand was incorrect, you had 14 cards. If you play 3 cards you will still need to discard one random card. Personally, I'm ok with that. I figure I should check with you, though. Do you want to keep your play at 3 cards, or add another one?

crap. The cards I wanna ditch I can't. The ones that will help with the check, I'm trying to hold on to. And it would be random what gets thrown away, right?

Totes. Or GM's choice, that could be fun too! Who's with me?
