Spike? It's you. It's really you! My therapist thought I was holding on to false hope, but…I knew you'd come back. You're like…you're like Gandalf the White, resurrected from the pit of the Balrog, more beautiful than ever. Oh…he's alive Frodo. He's alive.

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

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

I'll play a R3 (MF) into the check.

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

BSG

All right, throw a victory party! Snacks on Starbuck!

Result: Pass! The fleet's Food increases by 1.

The jump track also advances, ending Starbuck's turn. Dee's cards are going out. Dee, when you're ready, please post your move and action.

Dee: Communications; 3 cards

How did this happen? At the end of Gaeta's turn:

And Dee didn't use any cards during Starbuck's turn.

That happened because I'd forgotten to deduct the cards she discarded for the Food Shortage on her previous turn from her hand total.

Off to edit and make you look like a crazy person.

That makes so much more sense and explains why she couldn't help out on this last check. Thanks.

Our wings are not tired

Is there anyone I can XO to make use of the double action?

If you XO me, I could offer to play two Crisis Cards. It's an unorthodox move, sure, but I feel it's within the spirit of things.
