Most people is pretty quiet right about now. Me, I see a stiff -- one I didn't have to kill myself -- I just get, the urge to, you know, do stuff. Like work out, run around, maybe get some trim if there's a willin' woman about... not that I get flush from corpses or anything. I ain't crazy.

That's a great game. They actually made Bejeweled fun.

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

Ok, I've finished my exams and I'm hoping to get a new BSG game underway before the next semester starts. How's everyone situated for starting this week?

Frak, yes. Anything to take my mind off of France's dismal World Cup.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

I'm 99% sure I'll be able to keep playing after the move on the 30th.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why? Minsc: I'm not sure I understand the question. I have two feet, do I not? You do not take a small plate when the feast of evil welcomes seconds.

I'm ready to go whenever.

Not this week. Next week I could start. Would we want to wait for a 5th? Or have my first go as GM be only 4? BT, is 4 kosher in BSG?

Technically, it's 3 and up, but I assume 5 or 6 would work better. I assume anyone interested would be in here, but should we post something in Press?

Five or six is optimal, but four works fine. With four players, we'll have one Cylon and a Sympathiser.

I'd say that at this stage if we were to get a fifth (or sixth) it'd have to be a ringer. If anyone happens to have a gaming partner in meatspace who might be interested in giving BSG a go, by all means invite them. But I don't think it's necessary to hold things up waiting on it.

Edit: posting in Press is a good idea too.

I tried D but he said no.
