I battle evil. But I don't really win. The bad keeps coming back and getting stronger. Like that kid in the story, the boy that stuck his finger in the duck.

You should know I'm a big deal in the Resistance.

BSG

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

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.

I 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)!

omnis, pursue. That's an order from a shy woman who can use M-16. - Shir

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.

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

I pass.

Let's tally the cards, shall we?
Yellow: 4
GREEN: none
PURPLE: none
Red: 4
Blue: 2
Running Total: -10 out of 8
Epic!FAIL

But that was to be expected, right?

OK, well, let's see what effect that has. Tigh gets shipped to sickbay. And this card stays in effect forever! No more trying to look at loyalty cards.

Next on the agenda, we have activation of the Heavy Raiders. Let's see, non are in the air to activate. No basestars in the air to pump out new ones. So. That has no effect.

What's next? Oh! Jump Track. Bonus! Y'all get to advance that one tick. Fab. Looks like you are at the Blue -3 level now. So if you want to jump early, you take a high chance of reducing your population by 3. Just letting it be known.

OK, that about wraps it up for this turn.
