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

Sadly I don't draw Green, so I can't give out XOs. Even if I could, don't take this the wrong way Mr President, but I would be loath to XO you anyway. It's a basic safety precaution not to XO the person immediately after you if there's any doubt at all about loyalties. Doing so would give them three actions in a row; there's a lot of damage a Cylon can do with that.

It is of course nothing to do with how I regard your loyalties. I've previously warned Apollo not to XO me, for instance, for just the same reason.

So if I have this right, the President and Admiral would like to check me out before releasing me, while Helo and the Chief are in favor of releasing me now. t double swoon with pike Apollo, that gives you the deciding vote. I favor getting me back into action, but of course I have the advantage of being assured of my loyalties. If a majority of (the rest of) the crew would rather wait, then let's not muddy the waters.

I think we need the cards, let's get the possible toaster out of the brig.

Ahhh, this reminds me the tabletop game we played at ND's place. Me guessing who the cylons were, and nobody listening to me. Ahhh, those were the days.

So? Has Boomer made a decision? Will she stay in the Brig? It all rests in the hands of Apollo! (cue dramatic sting music - duh duh duuuuh!). Turn in tomorrow for the startling answer.

(what else am I supposed to do as GM?)

wow, talk about cross post. I double check my e-mail in case of CO's (ha, as if). OK, looks like the decision is leaning towards escape from the pokey.

Ms Boomer? what is your official MOVE and ACTION (well, no move I suppose).

Captain, thank you for your trust. I won't let you down.

Move: To the rhythm
Action: Activate the Brig (7YP)

Mr President, I recognise you were in favour of waiting to use the Mugshots; I do still request that you use your ability to reduce the difficulty of this check to 5. It'll help save the crew's cards.

As previously communicated to our fair GM, as much as I love and trust every last one of you, I have called for an Investigative Committee to look into the possibility of unjustified jailtime.

In other words, I play a Y3 interrupt.

(I've put a call into Laga to see if she wants to do the friends in low places thing. Left a message. Hope to hear back tonight so we can initiate this check.)

Before I forget. We used the last two cards in the Destiny Deck. So that has been restocked. During the restock process, the Piloting (Red) cards were depleted, and reshuffled.

I am holding off on announcing what the Destiny Deck has contributed until we hear back from Mr. President if he decides to do friends in low places.
