Guys, I know we've had our differences before, but if Zarek doesn't want to be President anymore, I'll volunteer. I've been following his Presidenting style - nice work, by the way - and I think I could do that. Especially fooding a fifth of your Population. I especially promise, if you let me be President, not to encourage mutiny. Unless it's funny.

When I played the Destiny Deck cards into the check, it depleted it. While restocking it, Tactics (Purple) and Piloting (Red) decks were also reshuffled.

Good shooting boys!
As for those nasty prisoners (Sorry, Zarek), I don't think we care about a partial pass, so it's go for it or not.
I think the question is, are we going to try to jump early or not (i.e., on this next turn at -3)? If so, we might not want to lose any population. Note: I can help try to help out on that jump with an SP, but it will still be a 50-50 shot.
Since there is only a heavy raider being activated, those civvies aren't in immediate danger and we might want to wait for Chief's turn and hope for one more jump icon, but there are plenty of cards without.
I think that, given the colors of our hands, we should be able to pass this. But, if Tigh and/or Chief have XOs in hand, they might want to hold on to them to be sure to have one on their turn.
I don't know about Zarek, but I could help a lot with this check. It's just a question of whether spending that much on one population makes sense.

Correction on the e-mail. The activation of the HR, I listed it going the wrong way. I saw it on the board heading towards sector 5, but my fingers typed the sector that is counter clockwise. D'oh! So the HR will move from sector 3 to sector 4.
I wouldn't mind passing the presidency on but I understand not wanting to risk population. If we go for the check I can help a little.
BSG
So? what have we decided?
BSG
Well, we haven't heard from either Tigh or Chief since you sent the Crisis Card out.
BSG
I can help a little, but as I have two cards, I will need to put in none or both (or one card just gets flushed down the hole anyway due to Tigh's weakness). And the two cards don't amount to much, I have to say.
Personally I think it might be wiser to hold onto cards for another crisis. I don't want to lose pop but since we know who the Cylons are, Zarek passing on the presidency title isn't such a bad thing.
Still if others think it's worth going for I'll go along with it. i don't have strong feelings one way or the other.
