Xander: I still don't get why we came here to get info about a killer snot monster. Giles: Because it's a killer snot monster from outer space. I did not say that.

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

No can do, I'm afraid; your normal card draw allows you to take either Green or Blue, but not both; your starting card draw follows the same restriction.

Could have sworn we had a discussion about that last game and it was decided it was allowed.

Oh well, I'll go R, P, B, then.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Is P-C the only one playing his own gender?

I am, also. Playing my own gender, not P-C's.

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

aha! Sometimes I forget who lurks behind our gender neutral nicknames.

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

I think that's right. This is an area that's a bit ambiguous the way it's written, and megan ruled the other way. I've committed to running this game per the FAQ, so to keep everything consistent, I'll stick with this ruling.

(Note: if you have the chance to draw extra cards during the game, the ruling is in the other direction. You are limited to your own colours unless otherwise stated, but not to the amount you normally draw.)

What else besides ramen can you scoop? YOU CAN SCOOP THIS WORLD FROM DARKNESS!

BSG

Ooh, looks like a good mix of the base/Pegasus/Exodus. Hope you guys are having fun up there in your fancy spaceships while I'm stranded on Caprica.

I'll take 1G and 2P.

Is that Admiral Helo, stranded on Caprica?

BSG

Yeah, I'm going to be barking orders REALLY LOUDLY. Hope you can hear me up there. And, uh, come rescue me before you get attacked.

For tonight's game, the part of Admiral Helo will be played by a high-strung pomeranian.

That's everyone's draw. Cards are going out now. Dee's turn is first. Dee, when you've received your cards and are ready, please post your move and action.
