Look, Angel, I know you've been out of the loop for a while, but I'm still evil. I don't do errands...unless they're evil errands.

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.

Has cylon technology reprogrammed my brain? I don't remember this in the game I played or ran (the last two).

I take that back. I don't recall much of an issue during the game you ran, but there was some grousing in the previous game.

I know what it's like for everyone to think you're a cylon when you're not (and I'm about to find out again) but I really don't understand what happened with StuntHusband.

I don't know him, so this would be complete speculation, but my guess would be that he felt like he was saving the day (ie using his OPG to steal the Admiralship from the suspected Cylon and doubling our distance travelled) only to find everyone turn on him. Which I admit, has to feel pretty sucky.

Honestly, when I got BTs email, my thought was "Wow, that's a risky gamble, but it might pay off. 3 fuel to do 2 distance is definitely managable with a little luck." Then I came into the thread and discovered we only had 2 fuel and we'd need a lot of luck to limp our way to Kobol. Which led me to the conclusion Ellen had purposely tanked our fuel supply because she was a Cylon. Accusations and desire to airlock then followed, which in retrospect were probably worded more harshly than they needed to be.

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

BSG

I have no offers to play an SP.

Die roll = 8. Success! Prepare to receive a Destination.

It's not ideal, but beggars can't be choosers. We'll leave it on top.

For my second action, I'll play another LS1 and scout the Crisis Deck.

Second scouting mission:

Die roll = 6. Success!

Crisis Card being sent out.

Okay. Bury that sucker.

Admiral Gaeta, I'd recommend activating FTL on your turn. It will risk us population, but we've got a shot at getting to Kobol on our remaining reserves and I don't want to risk any Toastery-types getting a shot at the Destination deck before we can Auto-jump.

Crisis buried. I'd tell you all what Roslin's replacement Crisis is, but the simple truth is that I don't know. I think we're going to have to hear from the President herself.

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

BSG

Admiral Gaeta, I'd recommend activating FTL on your turn.

I believe that can be arranged.

Sadly, once again the Puppies and Rainbows Crisis was not in the cards, so to speak. Instead, it'll be A Traitor Accused: Option 1 (Skill Check) and I pass on interrupts.

Interrupts. If you have 'em, please pass or play.

I can't help at all with this check.
