That's some mighty impressive Blue spikage there. (Oh, by the way, I'd forgotten to mention: because this is my turn, all 1s count positive. Not that it matters here, as all 1s are in positive colours already.)
Members of the crew, people sometimes ask me, "Pradmiralissimo", they ask, "What constitutes an emergency?" Emergencies, I find, are a lot like pornography. At the time you just feel so alive, but afterwards, so dirty Hard to define, but I know it when I see it.
And this is important, because sabotaging our water is not an emergency, although it could have been an emergency. In fact, the only reason it is not an emergency is because I could declare it to be an emergency, as a result of which there is no need to declare it an emergency.
I play a DE-3, over the front of which I have scribbled "Ceci n'est pas une urgence".
The water is saved! Break out the scotch!

Congratulations, you have achieved no effect!

Water Shortage? Please, water problems are so last turn. I say we start some Riots.
BSG
Oh, ow. Riots are two of the worst cards in the deck, a guaranteed loss of two Resource points.
I choose to lose Food and Morale.
Losing Fuel would bring it down to 1, and there aren't many ways to increase it. That's too close for comfort.

OK, I'm thinking we want to get Chief shooting again? I kinda want to get out of the Armory but that may not be practical. Any moving acting advice, humans?
Pre-emptively not listening to any cylon advice - always with the riots and the sabotage.
BSG
You could ask the Nutrimatic drinks dispenser to make you a nice cup of tea.
