OK, Chief, I will take that as an updated CO from the earlier e-mail. So we have two passes on playing cards. Currently the tally is at 4, and needs to get to 11 to pass fully. Next up is Boomer, whom I have a CO for: R4! I am reaching out to the President for CO clarification. We are within 3 of passing.

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

That's a pass from Apollo. I will play a Red-4. That leaves the President to cover 3 points to get us to the full pass.

Ninja'd by the moderator! Zounds!

After saving the Olympic Carrier like that, I trust you'll be swirling your cape about you before disappearing into the night.

An exact match. Perfect success. Amazing. How did that happen. Oh yeah, that's right, we had an investigate committee. Let's look at the crisis card and see what we won. Oh yes, if we pass, we win "No Effect". Pfft. That's boring. Next step, Activation. Let's see what the card says. Heavy Raiders. Wait, we don't have any. Dang it. This card sucks. OK, let's see if it shows anything else. Ooh! A Jump Track advancement! Sweet. I get to do something! :: moves Jump Token one step :: wow, that was exciting. Whew. I dunno what I'm going to do now. I dunno, maybe I'll do an end of turn summery or something.

For those playing at home and tracking well, you may have noticed a strangeness between end of turn summaries and Helo's cards. Fear not. It was a tracking error on the GM's behalf, and Helo pointing out. No worries. Hopefully this summery is correct.

Well, you know, I'm bored here on Caprica, with not much to do but make babies and count cards.

Wait... did I just see Starbuck?...
