Speaking of the admiral, I suddenly seem to remember that the admiral title cannot pass to someone in the brig.

It shouldn't really matter as it still passes to a human, but give me a sec to check ..

In addition, if the Admiral (but not the President) is placed in the
“Brig,” then the next player in line claims the Admiral title.

BSG FAQ v2 said:
Q: Who becomes Admiral if all human players are in the
“Brig?”
A: The character in the “Brig” who is highest in the line of
succession.

Neither of this says it definitely, but it makes sense.

Admiral

1. Helena Cain
2. William Adama
3. Saul Tigh
4. Karl “Helo” Agathon
5. Lee “Apollo” Adama
6. Anastasia “Dee” Dualla
7. Kara “Starbuck” Thrace

So it actually should be reis91 who is Admiral, I think.
I'll leave it up to Jacob though, either way I don't really care.

I reserve the right to change if anyone makes it reckless :)

No, that would kinda screw Adama, both by making him discard good cards, and by making us discard cards that would bail his rear.

That discard is not random. You can choose which cards you wish to lose, and I personally think all of you would have chosen to toss garbage.
But hey, it's your call :D
 
Kriszo does indeed appear to be admiral repair man as only non-brigged.
 
Doh .. I didn't quite think that through, did I? :p
 
Who, exactly, are we waiting for atm? Reis and LS playing card(s)?

I know it's been a weekend but some people :rolleyes: have been slow to respond to this game for weeks now.
A little bit more attentiveness would help. The action queue thing and the 24 hour deadline to respond do exist for a reason, you know.
 
When I update WW tonight I will update this even if LS hasn't played yet.

Action queue:
Gm~Stuff
Lord Strange~do turn
 
Oh come on, we lost the bloody check with 1...

And yes, activate that check LS!

EDIT: Maybe we should preload cards on this, as he almost surely activates the brig.
 
3 strong cards?

:rofl:

Nice try :)

You can still Declare Emergency to pass it.
(Being the helpful toaster again ..)
(( Well, technically the turn is over, but I presume it's still allowed.
On the other hand, why is Jacob not prompting for one? :D ))

That sounds like an idea. While you're at it, preload Investigative Committee, Scientific Research, and .. hmm .. what else can you toss on there?
Ah right - reckless cards! :p

Ah. Thanks for letting us know. That kind of thing always is a good reason to relax the rules a bit.

My preload would depend on recklessness of the check. But I'll send preload if the check isn't made reckless, in which case I reserve the right to alter.

Well, I sure won't make it reckless...
