    Or Helo or Baltar, biding their time. Or Baltar/Zarek or Helo/Tigh, covering their own.

    It's all so complicated! \o/

    Well, Mr. President, I'm glad to hear I have your trust.

    Cylon Helo clearing human Tigh to cover himself doesn't seem likely. Helo is second in line for Admiral, so he would have had a lot to gain by falsely accusing Tigh. So I'm pretty sure Helo and Tigh are either both human or both cylon.

    Cylon Baltar clearing human Zarek does seem a bit more plausible because it would give Baltar room to falsely accuse another human or perhaps clear the other cylon if they're out there. I don't think this is the case, but I'm not ready to rule it out either. I know "Baltar and Zarek are both cylons" is not a possiblity because I know I'm human... but I also know that me saying that doesn't really tell the rest of you anything.

    On the check: I can help a little if needed, but it's a pretty low number so if Helo and Starbuck can cover it I'll conserve. Pilots, what do you think?

    Does someone have a good guess about the two cards that were added from the destiny deck on this check? I can help a lot on this check, but I obviously would prefer not to overshoot this.

    edited August 2009
    Well, my two in are the only cards so far. We'll need more. Helo and Tigh should be able to handle it, though I recommend overshooting a bit since the DD, if I recall correctly, is not in our favor.

    E: Both piloting and at least one tactics card have definitely been used from the DD. It's almost certainly going to come out negative.

    That's a good point about the Destiny Deck. I was thinking we'd have 1 positive and 1 negative, but the other Tactics card could have come out on the last check.

    1 card helping a little.
