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

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.

Well, we haven't heard from either Tigh or Chief since you sent the Crisis Card out.

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.

I can help some with the check, but it's my last card.

Do we have an IC we can play into the check? With the high target number, I'd rather not play it blind. Especially for one of our higher resources. If we've got to do it blind, I'd be tempted to say just tank it than risk over-spending or playing a bunch of cards for no gain.

I don't think jumping early is worth it, yet. Maybe if we get to the -1 pop chance, but we've got enough vipers in the air to keep the civvies protected for the moment (especially after the firefight this turn) and I really would prefer if we could scout the destination deck before jumping so we can hopefully make sure we only us one fuel to jump.

I do not and I'm sure Tigh does not. I think Omnis should proceed to the check with no interrupts.

And I don't think you and Tigh should spend your last cards in the check. We're okay failing this one.

Can I get a volunteer to assume the presidency?

With great power comes great responsibility?

Is there anything about turn order or special abilities that makes one of us a better choice than the others?

Maybe Chief should be president so he can use a quorum card as a last resort if we're not in good shape before the cylons' turns.
