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

Billytea, for future reference, can you send me the files I need to run the next iteration?

I can indeed, I'll do so tonight (hopefully). You have a choice of files. I set up an Excel spreadsheet to keep track of the game. It's basically manual, but pretty reliable. Then there's the OpenOffice spreadsheet set up for use on boardgamegeek. A lot of it's automated, and it generates a full game record. It is more complicated though, and can be difficult to work with at times. I can send you either or both.

Thanks both of you. Please send whatever you have. When the time comes, I'll probably have the actual board set up as a double check for either.

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

Yes, this! I highly recommend this, either way.

Great game everyone. I really didn't think team Cylon was going to pull that one out. It was about as tight as can be.

How many cylon victories does that make here?

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

All but one, I think.

It's currently Cylons 3, Humans 1. This one was easily the closest.

A little more detail: The first game went for 53 turns; the Cylons won on Population. The second game was 39 turns long, and Fuel was the culprit that time. Game 3 took 33 turns for the humans to win. Finally, this game took 50 turns and was another Population victory for the Cylon master race.

I need to work out how bad may cards really were. Every time I was surprised by how many ones and twos I drew.

Attention lurkers!

Billytea and I were discussing GMing and wanted to know if there are any lurkers interested in trying a game (either now or in the near future).

I know you are out there. Speak now, or forever be suspected of being a cylon.
