Ouch.
If we pass the check, we'd be only one jump prep from winning the game. (If I'm reading it right. It looks like we get one jump prep from the crisis itself, and a second if we pass it, for a total of two.) But I can only help a little with the check.
BSG
Sorry I was out all night. I spiked the check because I believe Apollo is a cylon. I know I'm not one so that means we have at least one running around and he's the only one whose behavior seems suspicious to me (when he said I was acting suspicious but he couldn't back up his accusations). I'm very sorry that you all can't see that but at least we are very close to winning. You'll let me out of the brig when we get there, right?
BSG
Helo seems to only ever be able to "help a little," I've noticed.
My thoughts: the pass-the-skill-check option is so very, very tempting, but if that check fails we could well be screwed with the sudden boarding party. It would suck to be so close and yet so far.
Tough decision all around, though.
BSG
As usual for a jailbird I can only play the one card.
BSG
I can help a lot on this check.
BSG
Considering I only draw one out the three colors in the check, it's kind of tough to have an ample supply to contribute. And I brought us to the halfway point on the last check, at least until Boomer spiked the check.
Whether you suspect Apollo is a Cylon or not, Boomer--and I've yet to see him do anything suspicious--you forced the rest of us to spend additional cards into the check to keep him out of the brig, cards which could potentially be helping with this current check.
I hate the idea of dropping the jump meter when we're this close to Kobol. We'll go for Option 1. Hopefully the Cylons won't frak us too badly.
BSG
I'm sorry you feel I forced you to spend cards. I thought I made my intentions clear when I explained why I left that card on top.
BSG
And since the rest of us didn't think he was a Cylon, we were inclined to not get him thrown in the Brig. Especially since we now have a fully functional Armory again.
BSG
Helo has chosen the skill check. Possible interrupts: IC. Everyone, please pass or play.
BSG
Again I apologize. I'm doing the best I can from this lonely, lonely cell.
