Just because two say they can't help, that doesn't mean we can't come up with 13, or at least 8. I for one would like to see who steps up to the plate.
I like it, turning loyalty into an election issue. It's the Patriot Act all over again! Next you'll be shooting someone in Reno just to watch them apologise.
BSG
I don't bother waiting for the apology.
BSG
Let the record show that Helo would totally shoot a man in Reno, and then use his reroll.
BSG
I don't see a morale hit hurting us that much yet, but forcing Zarek to discard that many cards is also painful. Unfortunately, this is all I can do.
Play G2
BSG
Yeah, unfortunately, I should have thought about my earlier discards more carefully, I've got nothing useful to contribute (and I only have 2 cards left).
I gotta say, as useful as Investigative Committees are, I have to wonder if that Y5 in this particular case would have been a lot more useful contributed to the skill check than played.
BSG
considering the probability that there are two cylons running around loose and also how many cards count negative for this check, I doubt we could have passed a closed check. That said, I'm not sure we can pass this one.
Also- sorry about the spoilery email.
BSG
I have some CO's in hand.
8 YG
Destiny Deck: P1, R4
Tigh: pass
Chief: G2
Apollo: Y2
Boomer: pass
Zarek: G1,G2(running total 2 of 8!)
Helo:
That leaves Helo.
BSG
Just Helo left to play and we're 6 points short. In case it becomes relevant, note that a Declare Emergency can be used to get us from 6 or 7 up to a full pass, but it can't be used to get a partial pass. If we finish on 3 or 4, we can't use a DE to save the President's hand.
BSG
Well, I would hope that if anyone had had a Declare Emergency they would have played it, but, just in case, I'll put in an extra
G1
with my
G3.
Unfortunately, I can't get us up to 8, but that saves the rest of the President's cards at least.
