omnis you know I prefer my gmail, right?
Is it the same as profile but with gmail instead of yahoo?

(Moving ships around is the most annoying thing.)
Right, you have to click the ship and say move to here or some such, right? Ah the joys of new tracking sheets. Whee.

I've emailed you omnis,
I saw it in my INBOX. When I get home, I will absorb it into my file. Thanks!

BillyTea has some wonderful docs about the game, if anyone is interested. I think it's the rule book in electronic form and what not. He can e-mail them to you if you want.

Let's not forget to keep a BSG header to posts in here, to help them pop for us, and for those not interested in following the game, so they can skim.

We also had discussion in an earlier game that BSG was for in game actions, while bsg was for person-not-character observations/questions/quips.

OK, I should be working. More tonight.

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.

Now, as I recall, Zarek and Chief Tyrol were the Cylons that game...

Actually, it was Apollo and the Chief.

Apollo, which sector do you want to be in?

I'm going to launch this bird into sector five. Let's make sure to keep those toasters away from the fleet.

Since I am going to follow the game with my own board, where does Apollo's character token go when he is launched? Off the board? In the Hangar Deck? Or elsewhere?

Hello my nuggets. Not sure if you innocent folks realize it, but your universe just crashed. That "Officer" you had on Truce Station. Yeah. He was distracted by a pretty "lady" in a red dress. She smiled at him, then Fraked the universe all up. Those pesky planets you inhabit? You won't like them anymore. They will leave you with a nasty sunburn. It's rather entertaining, in all the mayhem, I've managed to kill off your leader, your top military brass, and leave you floating in space on the oldest bucket in the fleet. Weren't you going to turn it into a museum? Ha! Love it. You have en ex-con as your President, and a one-eyed drunk who can't see straight as your Admiral. This should be very fun. Try not to shoot yourselves now.

Round 1.1- Boomer

Card draws have been sent out. Apollo has chosen his location. This leaves it to Boomer to decide, where does she want to go, and what does she want to do?

Good luck nuggets! And may the Gods be with you all. You'll need it!

Up in the Viper/Raptor ship area at the top of the board. Then the ship that is his should have the round token with his picture on it (currently in sector 5), that way you can tell him apart from the RSV (Red Shirt Viper).

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

Off the board. He'll just have his pilot token with his viper; when he lands again, his character token gets put back on the board.
