Sounds good to me...

Alright, Andrew. It looks like it's mainly you and me. How do you feel about making the check? I can get us a third to a half of the way there, but I'll have to use a card or two that could come in handy later to do so. If I hang onto those cards, my ability to help drops to pitiful, putting about 80% of the remaining effort on you.

Our morale is dangerously low already and I'd had to see it drop anymore, but even if we didn't have to worry about the Cylon contributions I'm not sure what we'd have to do in order to meet it would be worth it (or, frankly, if we can even meet it!).

Lady Door · « **Reply #301 on:** April 15, 2013, 06:28:11 PM »

*I'd hate to see it drop any more.

Also, there is a chance that our remaining human friend's meager contributions could help swing it?

I realize that this is an important check and I'm fine with letting you guys take the time to discuss it and make an informed decision and all. That said, there isn't a whole lot of communication going on here either. I'm going to put a bit of a deadline on this.

I work in the morning tomorrow, so I'll be home around 2:30 EST, just before noon PST. A little less than 24 hours from now. If there has been no discussion or cards played, I will consider that your way of saying that you aren't playing into the check, and will update accordingly.

If there's discussion ongoing or anyone has played, the deadline for additional input is 24 hours from the last post. If you go 24 hours with no activity, the check will be considered over and I will update accordingly.

Nitori · « **Reply #303 on:** April 16, 2013, 09:08:34 PM »

I can help for maybe 10%

AndrewRogue · « **Reply #304 on:** April 17, 2013, 03:09:40 PM »

Ho hrm.

I think we should try going for it.

So, since my turn is coming up next and I'll be able to refresh my hand.

##Play 6. That is the vast majority of the way there.

Nitori · « **Reply #305 on:** April 17, 2013, 07:23:32 PM »

Play 2

Lady Door · « **Reply #306 on:** April 18, 2013, 02:03:34 AM »

Waiting to see if Stelas plays.

Ranmilia · « **Reply #307 on:** April 18, 2013, 03:45:53 AM »

Huh. I honestly expected team human to shrug and tank this. Now I have no idea if this is good for us or not.

##Play 1

Recommend playing in if you have any Pol left, Stelas?

Lady Door · « **Reply #308 on:** April 18, 2013, 03:54:42 AM »

Humans, shrug and just let the death wash over us? NEVER!

It's symbolically important to win a morale check.

As for what we're going to do when this check is over and we still have to do more things, well. We'll get there when we get there.

Waiting for a question to get resolved (not mine, Yakko, someone else's) before I play, now.

Yakumo · « **Reply #309 on:** April 18, 2013, 06:48:49 AM »

Since there was a mixup and Andy doesn't actually have as many cards as he thought he had, all cards are being removed from the skill check. If you don't want to change your play say so in here and I'll put yours back, no need to send another PM unless you're changing your play.

Sorry about that, didn't think to check his play against my records right away.

Stelas · « **Reply #310 on:** April 18, 2013, 08:53:51 AM »

Sorry, what a week. I'm ##playing 1.

AndrewRogue · « **Reply #311 on:** April 18, 2013, 02:50:08 PM »

Le sigh. Well, at least that got sorted before the check happened. I can now contribute less than 50% of the check, which I'm not sure is gonna make it possible to complete.

Thoughts?

Ranmilia · « **Reply #312 on:** April 18, 2013, 09:00:58 PM »

As previously stated, I will either play my one, or play zero if the humans decide to withdraw.

Lady Door · « **Reply #313 on:** April 19, 2013, 08:40:11 PM »

Okay. So.

How bad would it be to lose this check?

Shall we go all in, or tank it?

AndrewRogue · « **Reply #314 on:** April 20, 2013, 07:24:49 PM »

Prolly just tank it. I don't think we'll be able to handle a follow-up check as is.

Lady Door · « **Reply #315 on:** April 20, 2013, 11:58:36 PM »

Fine.

We've wasted enough time on this one. Moving on!

Oh well, I'll toss my card as penance for declaring first. :I
