That's orders from everyone. The draw:
Support the People
Gaeta:
2G
Starbuck:
2G
Dee:
2G
Roslin:
Y/G
That is indeed a lot of Green. I'm out and about at the moment for Australia Day; I'll send everyone's cards out when I get home, and we'll start the check. Gaeta is first to play, and I have COs from him.
BSG
Does anyone have any thoughts on how much overkill we should aim for to compensate for our unseen Destiny? I can't figure that out well enough to leave COs.
BSG
Cards have been dealt, and Gaeta has made his play by CO. Starbuck is up next.
Destiny:
2 cards
Gaeta:
XO-2, XO-2
Starbuck:
Dee:
Ellen:
Helo:
Roslin:
Tally:
4 + Destiny
BSG
Free cards. Might as well spend them.
I will play MV1 and DE3 into the check (both Green).
BSG
I have COs from Dee as well:
Destiny:
2 cards
Gaeta:
XO-2, XO-2
Starbuck:
MV-1, DE-3
Dee:
XO-1, XO-1
Ellen:
Helo:
Roslin:
Tally:
10 + Destiny
Ellen, you're up next.
BSG
I contribute
XO-1
and
XO-1
(both green)
BSG
I see we're generally playing low, and I agree we shouldn't blow our wad on this relatively easy skill check. I can't follow that lead, so would it be prudent for me to save my cards for a more difficult skill check? Roslin, could you bat clean-up on this one?
BSG
If Destiny is -3 or better, we're already good. If you want to sit this one out, Helo, go ahead.
BSG
I play
0 cards.
You're up, Madame President.
