Our good officer has picked Icy Moon . Brrr. So very cold. It costs one fuel. It has destination of 1. And has something for the injured/drunken Admiral to decide:
risk 1 Raptor: Roll 1-2 → lose Raptor; 3-8 → +1 food.
What say you sir?
We killed a homeless man on this bench. Me and Dru. Those were good times. You know, he begged for mercy, and you know, that only made her bite harder.

it's a game sometimes played during slow moments in Natter.Ah. See. I don't have enough time to keep up in Bitches and Natter. Soooo, that would explain why I had no clue.

Please say "Risk it"! And, if anyone has a SP, this would be a great time to play one since we would gain 1 food.
I pass on interrupts and retire to my quarters.
(Sorry, folks, but the pickings were slim.)

speaking of Boomer. Looks like the real Boomer is now in the new Hawaii 5-0.

I continue to be reassured that the high distance cards don't actually exist.
YES for the gods' sake, send out the godsdamned raptor! No point in sidetrekking like this without trying to get something out of it.

GS: If you had to choose between kicking evil in the head or the behind, which would you choose, and why?
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.

Wow. That was sucktastic. We lost weapons. We have two people in sickbay (myself included) and somehow with three destinations to choose from, they all only had 1 distance. Grrr. Hopefully the bonus to food works out. Sadly, I have no interrupts to lend.
How is this possible? Tigh wasn't there.
I think it's only because Sickbay isn't a valid target.

C'mon, you gotta be more optimistic than that. On the upside:
1) We jumped automatically and didn't lose population.
2) We only lost one fuel, and have a chance to gain food.
3) Tigh is getting out of sickbay for sure. Hopefully, with his card draw, we can spring Chief.
Over? Did you say "over"? Nothing is over until we decide it is! Was it over when the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? Hell no!... And it ain't over now. 'Cause when the goin' gets tough... the tough get goin'! Who's with me? Let's go!
--We gotta take these bastards. Now we could do it with conventional weapons that could take years and cost millions of lives. No, I think we have to go all out. I think that this situation absolutely requires a really futile and stupid gesture be done on somebody's part.
--We're just the guys to do it.

Hey, I'm not throwing in the towel. I'm just saying that for that turn, that was a pretty crappy series of events.
Or maybe getting blown up just makes me cranky.

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

Clearly we need to build up a broader database of reactions to getting blown up. Ideally we would blow you up several more times to fill out the range of its impact on your mood. I propose we use repeatedly blowing up Tigh as a control group.

You know, over the last cycle or two it seems that on average, the humans get luckier on the Cylon turns, and the Cylons do better on the human turns.
