    Well she does only have 1 card in hand though my metal detector is still confused by that one wasted card

    Yeah, that was a very strange move. If she thought I was a cylon, then it was a wasted card since I'd just have put nothing/negatives in and the check was lost anyway, and if I was human and didn't actually have enough to cover the check, then I'd just be a terrible player.

    As you wish, Captain. While I'm Meeting with the Quorum (draw a card), I'm going to ask Gaeta to prepare the dais for an...

    Inspirational Speech
    Action:
    Roll a die.
    If 5 or less, discard this card.
    If 6 or greater, gain one morale and remove this card from the game.

    Once that's complete, I will Continue my meeting with the Quorum (draw again), and from there, we can decide what's best for the fleet.

    Perhaps we should consider strategically planning the timing of that speech to ensure as many people hear it as possible. Unfortunately, my duties on the Hangar Deck mean I can't help you in that regard.

    Baltar works in the recent offer of peace as a sign of weakness from the Cylons. The crowd goes wild!

    To clarify, because that one confused the heck out of me: The next use of Administration, or the Admiral's Quarters targeting Baltar, have difficulty increased by 2. Then the card goes away.

    Well destiny is probably neutral/slightly hostile to us and we do have 3 cards in.

    But, as for the brigging, I'm not sure really. Dee made some strange moves and that last quorum play for baltar was... odd, a tactics card over another quorum card? Although he did wait for helo's turn for the speech...

    I've been confirmed as much as possible - either I'm human or both baltar & I are cylons.

    If Baltar is a cylon he can do just as much dmg from there with his quorm cards as he can outside but his quorum play was a good one if he was a cylon though I am tempted to if forced to chose pick to send Dee to the brig for some "interesting" play (sorry I wish I had time for more evidence for or against).

    I wanted to draw a skill card as I was low in my hand, and the colors I draw came up on multiple crises before. I drew tactics mostly as something outside my skill set to try and be more helpful in the future. The only Q card I had that let me draw skills was that one.

    I don't know that I suspect Dee, especially since that card she put in strangely ended up assisting. Granted it was a strange play, but I don't think it's metalheaded.

    I guess if you wanted to put someone in the Brig, I'd go. I can still draw Q cards from in there, and assist the fleet that way. I'm fuzzy on whether or not I get my fifth card if I don't draw a crisis, though? That might be something to consider. Up to the group, I suppose.

    Side note: I can also (since we're cylon ship-less out there) mine the Q deck and spring whoever we put in the brig if we want to do it that way. Can't be me though, if that's how we want to play it.

    yea he would lose his 5th and tbh I do not suspect Baltar that much and of course it is possible we have no cylons right now. I dont think though thta Dee's card not being negative is not a great metal detector becuase it is a legit strat for a cylon to dump their cards and just be habitually unable to help (no hand).

    It's risky. Dee might be a Cylon, or we might be out of a communication specialist. If you have to use the brig option, I say Dee.

    Also do we have too? I remember the rules saying if you can't give 5 cards you can still pick the option, you just have to give what you can.
