You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.
I sometimes feel a little sore about something that was said in the thread but then I remind myself that mistrust and accusations are part of the game. It does kind of suck being stuck in the brig but I'm still having a lot of fun.

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

Ex-President Zarek draws a Super Crisis card, and discards: Y1, Y1, Y2, Y2, G2, P2, P2. Admiral Adama, courtesy of being shot in the gut, you must discard 5 cards. When you're ready, please post your discards. In addition, you will start next turn in Sickbay, and will therefore draw only one card. Please post whether you would like Green or Purple.
Finally, we need a new President. Next in the order of succession is Apollo. Apollo, I'm sending you your hand of Quorum cards.
That concludes Zarek's turn. Adama, when you're ready, please post your move and action (and choice of card draw).

I discard G1, G1, G1, G1, P1
I will draw a green card.

There is nothing stopping me from moving to FTL and activating it is there?

Only your own conscience. Think of the children!

Now let us crush something soft and watch it fountain blood. That is a girlish thing to want to do, yes?
Dragon Age:
I finally picked up Oghren for my party. OMG Y'ALL why didn't anyone tell me he's Jayne? SRSLY!! Once I picked myself up off the floor after some rambling drunk "I'll be in my tent" speech, I promptly went off and made him a very nice weapon that I named Vera. In my head, because the console won't let you do that. And then I came back to the campfire and the little sod yelled ASS CHAPS and fell over the next time I tried to talk to him. HAR!! so totally Jayne.

I was mistaken on my discards, I discard a G1, G1, G1, G3, G4
I then move to FTL and active the jump.

Ok, technically I haven't yet sent Apollo his Quorum cards, Zarek his Super Crisis nor Adama his card draw. I also don't recall offhand who still has an SP. However, even if this die roll fails it makes no difference to the outcome. I am therefore pleased to announce that, for the first time in this forum,
HUMANS WIN!!
