The other game I'm in is probably going to end shortly and horrifically.

I don't know what you're talking about.

Going to just say I'm about as useful as a wet paper bag. Planning on heading to Colonial One on my turn

I don't get it, how is Gaius Baltar different than a wet paper bag again?

I've been out of the game for a while, but it seems like unnecessary XOs before we get a handle on folk is still a bad idea? I'm not being accusatory I just don't know how much the rationale has changed recently.

In general you're probably right, but that would be a hell of cylon play to soft reveal on turn 1.

Should we choose the Mutiny option, I think I might be the best choice for the second card since I'm not much more than an XO/Scout bot right now. Me getting Brig'd would not be the end of the world.

I forgot how fun this is. :psylon:

But no, I'm afraid I'm not your enemy. I'm not sold that the best strategy is to just feed XOs on the first round of actions. I took the least immediately useful card in my hand to move into a position to better utilize my title. And you'll have to trust that I wouldn't blindly discard an XO if I didn't have to.

Well there's one way to guarantee your loyalty. :getin:

I mean Gaius is suspicious but it might possibly be a bit early to start executing people based on that, and morale is valuable in no sympathizer.

I know we don't enforce Turn Order, but that's hardly Fair Play. He's the current player and would play last, on paper, no?

Thats why he said to wait until we find out how much Baltar can play, aka wait till he chimes in on what he has available.

The only change between Cocks and my ongoing games is that I combine all pilots' Raider shooting, while he doesn't. But both games only have one pilot, so v:v:v

At least one of these games is going to have no pilot when sleeper phase hits, that will be interesting to watch.

Pander, Friction.123, Toshimo, come on...please chime in here! I can't be alone in thinking this.

I'd love to chime in, but from where I sit there's just too many unknowns. Any execution risks both a shitload of cards and a morale, which we don't have as much of in no sympathizer.

1) El Presidente is obviously suspicious after his "I don't believe in early XO" turn, and I'm happy to let him sit in the Brig and do things from there since I don't trust him with the Quorum deck (or at least with getting LOTS of quorum cards via the office).

2) The Admiral of course after a series of "unfortunate" events, but as pointed out blowing up a basestar is inconsistent so either he's playing a really long game or isn't (yet) a cylon.

3) The CAG, sorry buddy but you are out for blood like crazy this game and its a bit suspicious in and of itself

None of these things are enough to "prove" anything, at least not enough to risk a morale and buttload of cards.
