Ack! I have the paranoia at this stage, but not the evidence. The only one who`s not played in favor of Team Human since the sleeper phase kicked in is Baltar but that`s only because he hasn`t had a chance to, and the other two of you could still have been playing it close to the chest.
 
And yet, can we afford yet another morale hit? We almost certainly have the cards to pass this if we want to, but do we want to? Could we come to informed choice as to who should be brigged at this point?

Well, Chief's gonna have to discard if he doesn't play into the check. So there's a couple of free cards. Is the brigging mandatory if we pass?

Eta: and maybe we'll learn something in the course of the check. Could happen.

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

BSG

We're not obliged to brig someone if we pass, this one's optional; we can pass it just to avoid the Morale loss. (There is a card where you have to brig someone if you fail.)

Oh, ok, that`s good. So, yeah, I have to discard anyway, and I can help a good bit on this check. So we should at least go for it with me.
 
No interrupts from me, though.

Well, I'll pass on interrupts, send in my COs and go to bed. After shooting everyone suspicious glances.

I can help with this check. We're fortunate too that Starbuck's draw this turn happened to be the positive colurs for this check; though I'm sure she has something else to play.

I agree with the Chief, Baltar's the most suspicious right now, but not from actually doing anything to earn it. It's just that the rest of us have been playing human. His own turn could be informative.

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

Anyone have Need for Speed Hot Pursuit? Sounds interesting.

Anyone have Need for Speed Hot Pursuit?

It is on my Christmas wish list, so hopefully I will get it.

Just waiting on interrupts from Herr Doctor. Otherwise:

Destiny: COs in hand (naturally)
Adama:
Baltar:
Helo: COs in hand
Starbuck: COs in hand
Chief:

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

Ah. Misread the card. Trying to pass it makes sense, then. I can help.

Pass on interrupts.

On second thought, I play a Y3 IC on this check. Let's see who deserves a brigging.
