I'm off. No library tomorrow although I might be at my folks' house. Otherwise I'll be back around noon on Saturday.
Take me, sir. Take me hard.

Checking in from work here, so without cheat sheet in front of me. I will do the open face playing when I get home, and can cross things off that are played, but want to try and keep things rolling if we can. Plus, we are waiting to see if Chief wants to/can play the blue interrupt.
Zarek: CO's received
Helo: CO's received
Tigh: CO's received
Chief: CO's received
Apollo:CO's received
Boomer:
If you are waiting to see what is previously played before making your choice, your CO's can outline that. "If I see a total of +4 by my turn I play the orange 7 card. If it's between +1 to +3, I play the Orange 7 AND orange 3. If by my turn it's below +1, or anyone spikes the deck , play all my Orange cards and pray the Gods of Kobol will help us"

First, Chief passed on skill check. Next, here we go with the skill check. First, we have Boomer discard the Y3, which makes everything open to the public. Next is the Destiny deck, and then the pile of CO's. Away we go:
10 YP
Destiny Deck:
G1, R5 (ouch! -6 so far)
Zarek:
Y1 (-5)
Helo:
P1 (-4)
Tigh:
no cards (-4)
Chief:
(No CO's, sorry, I thought I had some. Kalshane, if you sent, can you resend, if not sent, please send the first time.)
Apollo:
Excellent CO's in hand
Boomer:
(waiting to see how it all plays out to see what to play)

You were a wrong baby who grew up wrong. The wrong kind of wrong. It's better you hear it from a friend.
BSG
That's a very painful Destiny. Chief, Apollo, I believe we can still pass this, if you can each help get us part of the way.

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.
BSG
I only have one card that can help. I play Y4. I hope our pilots can cover the rest.

Boomer can. Show us what you've got, Captain.

I believe Boomer has lots of yellow, and there are also interrupts that can be played to lower the skill check. But I would do as much as you can.
Unfortunately, P1 was the best I could do. My purple draw at the beginning was sadder than me electing to stay behind on Caprica.

Hmm, so let's work this out then. Destiny put us at -6, 16 points left to go, nasty. Zarek added 1. Pity that, I'd hoped the President would be leading the opening ceremony, looks like he could only spare Billy for the job. Puts us on -5. Helo next, another 1. A shame, but I don't think he has much else to swing it. Probably only has the cards left to strike manly poses. Puts us to -4.
Admiral's boycotting the proceedings entirely. Fair enough, bound to be enough to drive him to drink, even if he could help. Now, the Chief's making a good showing, looks like the Union of Musicians, Carnies and Bag Check Attendants is on board. Brings us back to 0. And now the captain's organised security, that's up to positive 2.
Hmmm. 8 points to go. The difference between passing and failing is 3 Morale. Zoinks! Can I do this? Let's see, how about:
Yellow-2
Yellow-2
Purple-4
Can I put on a party or what?
