Cool. Hopefully Tigh's cards aren't worst-case scenario and can help seal the deal more than we think.
I play G2, G2, P2, P1
15 GP (B)
Destiny Deck:
R3, B4
Zarek:
pass
Helo:
G2, G2, P2, P1
Tigh:
Chief:
Apollo:
Boomer:
Running Total: 8 out of 15
I highly suggest Tigh play all cards. Since we're doing this, we can't afford to fail, so if we can actually play 25, that would be ideal. Chief, if you have a 5 Y or R in your hand, that total would be lower.
BSG
I wish this was more, but it'll get us to almost passing, so if Chief can push us well over the top...
I put in all my cards: a G1, P1, and P4
BSG
That's way better than I feared. Now we only need 6 to have a good chance and 11 to be certain. Maybe Chief can even keep a card or two, but I would play at least 9 if you can.

If I draw an xo on my turn I would like to use it; I could xo Tigh to get out of the brig and also lower the difficulty. If I don't get an xo maybe now would be a good time to try the food rationing quorum card. Wait, Tigh's not in the brig, he's in sickbay.
If I draw an xo on my turn I would like to use it
Yes, I'd say getting Tigh out of sickbay is our first priority, just so it's done (since there's no guarantee that I'll draw an XO). Now that we know who's human, I think we should use XOs at every opportunity.
Otherwise, yes, I'd say draw another Quorum card and go for food.
BSG
Yes, I am a sick drunk, not a mean drunk, get it straight! *smile*
We also need to jump soon. I can (or anyone else can) do that if XOed.
I also have a mind to get to get to the Research lab and draw some cards so I have something to contribute to crises (even if I have to discard the 1 card right after if it doesn't get used). But can't do that and jump, so something to consider and/or make more complicated.

You did, but our GM likes it to be all official and sh*t.
Um. Sorry. It does make it easier to track that way.
BSG
I hope this is enough. I think it's going to be close either way.
Play G5, B1, P1.
BSG
Apollo, you and I should talk before we play into this check. Give me a moment, I need to check something first.
