I have no way to help on this, because I just used my cards that would help, also I am not a Cylon and strongly suspect Stelas is!
Fortunately this seems like a good check to slack on - there's no resource loss involved, and we can just get Andy out with an easier check.  I suggest nobody play anything on this, unless Andy's new cards are super awesome and he wants to solo out of it or something.

I think I could use the cards in my hand in a better way, even imprisoned, so I'm going to advise we just let me go the brig for now. Try to reserve some stuff to bust me out next turn though, please.

Also sorry for the pause - I was dealing with a lot of Lunarnet server stuff last night that was stealing most of my attention.

I mentioned it briefly in IRC but I'll say it again here to be sure everyone sees it.  Preloading your play in the thread defeats the purpose of playing cards in turn order.  I'm not going to worry about it too much this time since consensus seems to be to fail this intentionally, but if you want to preload your play in the future, do it by sending me a PM.

I'm awesome, but there ain't no way I can win a check by my lonesome. Lots of accusations flying -- mainly between Stelas and Alex. Hmm, hmm.

At any rate, here's hoping we can get Andrew out of the brig soon. It looks like we're going to need to shore up in short order.

Turn 7 - Current Board

Admiral Agathon immediately orders the fleet to jump.  Upon their arrival, there is a brief moment of panic as one of the civilian ships seems to have been lost during the rushed jump.  Luckily, they merely jumped late and show up a few minutes later.

Stelas activates FTL control, rolls 4.  ECO Officer is used, the die is rerolled and comes up 8.  No population loss.  All ships are removed from the board.  Starbuck is placed in the Hangar Bay.  Stelas was given two destinations to choose from and picked Barren Planet.  Travel 2 distance, lose 2 Fuel.

Not long after the jump, Admiral Agathon receives reports of a strange woman on the ship that nobody has been able to identify.  Is it a Cylon infiltrator or just a civilian who went unnoticed during the rush to escape?


----------
Crisis: Keep Tabs on Visitor


Current Player Chooses:

Pass=No Effect

Fail=Roll a die.  If 4 or lower, -2 Population

OR

The current player discards 4 random skill cards


After crisis: Activate raiders(no raiders or basestars on board, ignored), +1 Jump Prep

My hand is entirely full of low, low-ass cards, and a potential 2 Pop stings. Gonna take the Discard.

##Draw 1 Leadership, 1 Politics

Also, holy hell, what's the hand limit and why do I have so many cards? Let's fix this for great justice! And as soon as I know what I have, on to the action phase. (Pretty sure I'm going to pass my move and hang out in the Hangar, and play one of the cards in my hand, but let's see...)

The hand limit is 10 skill cards.  Other cards that you may have, like Quorum cards, are not counted in that limit.

Thanks! Good to know. Also, that means my hand is nearly full. Conveniently, I have a card I can play that will actually help.

##Play [card removed] on Nitori

For the record, that was [redacted].

Oh, I should clarify.  You can have more than 10 cards in your hand, but if you have more than 10 cards at the end of any player's turn, you have to discard down to 10.  Unless you're Chief Tyrol, in which case that limit is 8 per his drawback.
