I...I feel something unburdening...Oh, no wait, that's just my lunch. Carry on. <exchanges significant glances behind the Admiral's back> What? Oh, yes sir. Uh-huh. Yes, I'll just be over here, got some rags to clean the, right.
Giles: I'm sure we're all perfectly safe. Dawn: We're safe. Right. And Spike built a robot Buffy to play checkers with. Tara: It sounded convincing when I thought it.

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

Don't forget too, you can use COs to help speed theings up where possible. For instance, Chief, I expect Starbuck to reveal on her turn; using up her OPG seems like the last hurrah before hitting the great goo bath in the sky. If that's the case, the board won't have changed from its current layout, as there'll be no Crisis on her turn. (Ditto if she stays but is still stuck in the Brig.) You could put in COs for what you do on your turn, for if that's the case.

I have been using CO's! It's just that somebody keeps messing them up! I shall see what Starbuck does. She may just be painting on the walls of her cell during her turn. In which case I would need to invoke my special paint removing ability during my turn. ONLY TIME WILL TELL!

Yes, Chief has been very good about COs, despite not being like the son you never had.

Yes, I don't mean to suggest anyone hasn't been using them. This crew's been very fast. (I've already had one email from omnis complaining about it.) I just can't pass up an opportunity to cheerlead for them, having been on the GM side of things myself.

I'm confused, Omnis isn't playing. How can it be moving too fast?

t sniff I had a son I never had, and she broke my heart. I just... I don't know if I could ever consider having another child I never had, you know? I don't think I could take going through this again.

Hee. The gist of his complaint was how come we weren't that responsive when he was running the game, I believe. It's naked GM envy, is what it is.
(The envy, that is, is what is naked there. I don't mean to imply that any GMs, past or future, are naked. Or that there is any envy directed towards said naked GMs. Though for all I know there may be. I'm not in a position to judge. That may change in the future, if I get Assign Arbitrator played on me.)

BTW, as I am seeing Coraline: The Musical with various Buffistas tonight, I will probably not post the summary and send out cards until late tonight.
COs for various things are welcome.

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.
BSG
Yeah. I'm really thinking that was a justly-earned brigging.
Hey, guys, we may be under attack and we lost a raptor, but at least I got to keep my 1 low-value card.
Yeah, I didn't think so either.
