I have seen fancy board images before, but haven't found the file for them. Nor do I have the Photoshoppery to make them myself. Sorry about that.
Quorom card sent.
I happen to have photoshop and the file and I have no problem keeping track fo the state. However, to all, I'll just update the image at the start of each turn. I can't keep updating this image all the time.
EDIT: Binary gave good advice. Not sure I'd trust Baltar that much until we actually see him make some plays, though.
Remember the secrecy rules for this discussion! You can talk about whether or not you want to go for passing the check, and how much you can contribute (I can contribute a little/alot. Of course, you can lie about it too if you have reason). You post your contribution (number of cards you're 'discarding' into the check), then PM me the exact cards you're putting in.
Now here comes something that's a little hard to do play-by-post style. Some cards should be played before the check (Investigative Committee, Scientific Research). There are two ways to do this
1) Wait for everyone to pass on playing them
or
2) Have people contribute normally, but be allowed to change their contribution if someone plays those cards.
heh, I thought you saw my PM about it. BAD GM! Go to your room! </End Parent Mode>
I'll get ontop of this, I swear (by the Lords of Kobold, or the One True God. Can't be racist now).
We now return you to your scheduled crisises. For the amusement of the gods.

7 - Jump Computer Failure Tactics, Engineering
Pass: No Effect.
Fail: -1 population and move the fleet token 1 space towards the start of the Jump Preparation track
(launch raiders)
7 is the number to meet or beat. Only Engineering and Tactics count positive for the check.

OK, so hopefully this one will be easy for us to pass. Launching Raiders is bad, but the other choice was even worse IMO. Anyway, what should be our plan of attack here? Personally I feel using the Committee card here if you have it is a bad move. While it be nice to keep the cylons in check early, I would rather save a move like that for when we have a harder check. Obviously scientific research does not apply here as it is an engineering check anyway.

Correct, this is not the time to use a Committee card.
I can help a bit with this check if it's really needed. However, this isn't a super critical check if we fail.
Just for future reference when looking at what to keep/what to dump to the bottom, you should tend to prefer cards that advance our jump counter.

If you're town and I'm mafia, you've already lost. You just don't know it yet.
I can help only minimally, considering the attributes of the check and my starting card spread.
If we're gonna go for it, I'll do what I can. I do come up next so it won't hurt me too much compared to some others. Tossing 1 card in

My bad with the earlier image, Apollo's launch and pilot Viper starting point actually puts out another Viper. Updating it locally, it will be correct in the T2 image.

That's only true if you're being targeted by an Executive Order... during your normal turn you can't get a second action by declining to move.
Movement: None
Action: Play 2-Consoldate Power and draw 2 Tactics Cards.
From what I can see, that is what we are lacking most outside of piloting, and I rather leave those cards to the pilots to take.
Now to await for the crisis cards.

As for how I can help, I can actually help here. (go go psychic powers!)
As far as this not being a critical check to pass/fail, Population is only at 10, that does not leave us with a lot of room to play with.

Also, just to expedite play, I think we have to do it this way. A player will just need to request using those before submitting card contributions.
I suppose people could also PM me contingencies. I.e. I play X, but if someone plays Committee/Research then I play Y instead.

I'll be PMing the people that haven't submitted yet in an hour or so.
