If we decide to do this check I can help a little.

Here are the options as I see them:
1) Intentionally fail the check, playing 0 cards. The downside is that maybe Tigh might not draw cards on his next turn. Note: We would have two turns to potentially XO Tigh.
2) Someone play an IC, learn what destiny holds, and see if the toasters decide to do anything about it. Note: Except for ICs, yellow won't help on a Super Crisis Card. I'd say this is Chief's call.
3) Try to pass this check without an IC. Note: IMO, this would be insane troll logic. We need cards for what's about to hit.

I pass on interrupts (I don't have an IC).

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.

First the Admiral's Quarters (twice), then FTL Control, and now the Research Lab. Are we sure the Cylons are trying to blow us up, or is Salty just Spontaneously Combusting?
Honestly, with Apollo's Super Crisis looming, I think our best bet is to intentionally tank this check, and try to XO Tigh out of Sickbay before his turn.
I can help with the check, but I'd much rather use the cards on something where we have actual resources at risk.
ETA: Pass on interrupts.

Tigh has no cards, so I think we can safely say that he won't play an interrupt either.
Release the hounds (of destiny)!

Wow, that was quick. I actually have a pass on interrupts already! Woot. Great. Since this is now a closed check, CO's should be e-mailed. If you want to play no cards, please say that too.
