see, this is why this game is so frustrating fun. At this point we know for sure one of two people is a cylon, either the President or the Admiral. I could seize the admiralty but as I really have no clue I don't think that's a good idea at this turn. Also it would be a bad idea to xo someone who has a 50/50 chance of being a cylon and as xo-ing someone else would have the same effect as firing myself, I'm going to
play
SP-3 and
blast that basestar!
(iow, I'm activating CIC)
BSG
Great. Just great. President "I drink the crazyjuice" is accusing Admiral Absent of being made of METAL?
SAUL! PUT DOWN THAT BOTTLE AND...gods.
Don't make me march over there, kids, and do something about y'all. Cuz I can: I've kept Saul in line for decades. You're all creampuffs in comparison.
BSG
I'd be half tempted to brig both of them until we can sort all of this out.

That might not be a bad idea, but I wanted to get rid of this basestar first.
BSG
There's a loyalty test for you: whichever refuses to pull the trigger, brig 'em. Or that shiny new Pegasus has a more...permanent...solution.
BSG
So who is in favor or starting brigging procedures on one or both of our compatriots? Or should we just go directly to airlock?
BSG
We could airlock them both, the human will be reincarnated and the cylon will be off the ship. Unfortunately, it will be very expensive.
BSG
Gaeta fires upon the basestar:
Die roll = 3 + 2 = 5. Hit (once)!
And the damage is:
Critical Hit - basestar destroyed!
I have COs from Gaeta:
Play Major Victory - 2.
We now have a die roll to increase Morale, which may be modified by an SP. Everyone (who draws Purple), please pass or play. After the roll, it may also be modified by a Calculations. Everyone with Blue can send me COs.
BSG
I, of course, think we should brig Helo and if it makes you all feel more secure to have me behind bars as well (separately from the toaster, I hope), I can make that sacrifice. It would limit my usefulness, of course, but not too badly.
I forgot about the Airlock option. Airlocking me would only serve to decrease the Morale I have worked so hard to preserve. Airlocking Helo, would that be better than brigging him? I'm not sure.
Eta: well played, Mr. Gaeta!
BSG
Pass on interrupts (I would help if I could but I can't so I won't).
