Congratulations, humans. Pradmiral Tigh is still out there in his ramshackle raptor/still combo and raises a glass of the hard stuff to you.
It's true, they did it all just to legitimise your substance abuse. Because they care that much.
Incidentally, I love the idea of Tigh getting around in a flying still.

Jump-capable flying still, I'll have you know.

It's what gives his brew that extra kick (so to speak).
You mean Tigh doesn't have an in-canon Raptor-Still?
I demand a re-write!
Pegasus does sound interesting. I was wondering if you could play some "outed" Cylons.
Um. Dante's Inferno has an M rating. Ya, that is well earned. The opening movie is pretty gruesome. I got to Limbo at first try. Um. Ya, I suck. Had to bump down to easy setting.
wow, a 3 day serial. Um. Potato(e) Chips?
BSG
I've been working with billytea to get his fabulous sheets understandable for others to use. I think I've hashed through it pretty good. But. Looking at it all, I realize, with 3 shows and a gala in the next 4-6 weeks, I'm probably not the best person to run the game. BT has it pretty sweet, so that you can run the show from the excel sheets, don't even need a copy of the board game. It helps as a reference, no doubt, but not needed. So? Anyone game?

BSG
Anyhow. bt just linked me to another game tracking option that is amazingly simple. It works in OpenOffice, which is nice (as I am too poor/cheap to buy Excel). I will play with it some more tonight when I get off of work.
That said, I could GM, but, again, with my work schedule, it'll be really crazy the next 6 weeks. And if I take this CA gig, my life will be crazy through June at least. Oy.
Play is one thing, but GM'ing... I don't want to leave my peeps out in the cold. Is anyone else interested?
There's no way I could consider doing the GM thing until maybe this summer. Right now I'm scheduled to be in and out of town and probably on and off some cruise ships for the next couple of months.

It always goes quiet after a big BSG blowout.
And no, no way in hell can I GM. I was all too aware of hoe much effort it took before I ever jumped into the BSG game and it is why BT has my admiration for doing it so well.
ION, Borderlands is still crack. Red Dead Redemption comes out in May.

This is a reason I favour omnis or Laga to run the game. They're both maintaining a high posting frequency already. Note: I'm running games more smoothly now three games in than I did at the start. I also spend a fair amount of time dealing with things that can be left up to the players. If you're interested in running a game, don't feel you need to do as much as I did, or as quickly.
