Good work, soldier. I believe the tally's back to 0. Let's see what Starbot has up her sleeve.

Edit: Chief, I think at this stage you can stay out of it. I'm over my hand limit already, so my cards are more expendable than yours.

BSG

Gads this is like the third time I've had trouble keeping track of my cards. I have a different amount of cards written down than the summary for the last round says. Awaiting GM help.

eta: apology... sorry for holding up the game yet again.

eeta: cos insent.

BSG

Gads this is like the third time I've had trouble keeping track of my cards.

I'm not surprised, with the number of cards you've been pilfering from my crew. And Baltar.

I'm in a Pegasus game at the moment with Ellen Tigh. She has an ability that lets her pass off one of her cards to another player, then draw two extra cards. Trying to keep track of everyone's hand becomes a nightmare.

...Not that I would ever do that, of course. Your secrets are safe. Carry on.

Ok crew, this gets complicated. First up: normally a Briggening needs to reach 7, but thanks to the arbitrary arbitration of the Chief, it's down to 4. That means I need to cough up 8 points. Here goes:

XO-2
DE-3
SP-3

I believe that gives us:

Leadership: G1, G2, G3, G3, G4
Tactics: P1, P1, P3
Politics: Y2, Y3, Y4, Y4
Piloting: R1

Tally: 18 - 14 = 4.

Dr Gaius Frakking Baltar, you may be a magnificent bastard, but you are no longer welcome in my Office. GET OFF MY SHIP!! And onto my other ship. Oh, now there's an idea. Billy? Let's get some bumper stickers made up for Colonial One, saying "MY OTHER CAR IS A BATTLESTAR".

See how I can just boss him around like that? That is because he must respect my Command Authoritah! And let me tell you, Command Authoritah is a beautiful thing. Not only is it a major turn-on, it lets me do this:

I use my OPG to pick up all the cards played into this check. Even the little red one.

Right, that brings my hand to... 22 cards. I feel like I should be taking a pill, or shouting "By the power of Greyskull!" or something.

If that doesn't provoke a Crisis, I just don't know what will.

BSG

Well, I think we now know how El Hippo has been feeding that ego, he must be binge eating... Food Shortage!

Details to be mailed.

BSG

Heh. I was hoping to get to spend more of these cards on it, but at least I get some use out of five of them. I choose the discard option.

In addition to the five cards I'm now obliged to toss, I'll need to add another seven in order to get my hand back to 10 cards. For the Food Shortage I will discard:

G1, G1, G2, G3, P1

Then I will discard:

Y1, Y1, Y1, Y2, Y2, Y2, R1
