So I know jack shit about running BSG in a forum, but I'd like to try it. Anyone feel comfortable running a game in our forums?

I have NO idea how to run it...and have yet to play the game. But as I own it, I am SO IN if this happens!

Yeah, I should be more clear...I want someone to actually run the thing. I have nowhere to leave stuff set up, even cards...not at work, and not with four chil'ens running around the house.

But I'm *IN* if someone wants to run it. We'll run it right 'chere in these hallowed PBEM Forum halls.

Count me in, too, but I can't host the game. No kids, but our cat loves games. Specifically, he loves to sit in game boxes, walk on games in progress and lie down on boards.

I'm also not offering to host as I don't yet own the game, but I'd love to play!
I think I missed the Ogre boat, but I promise to get my sh#t together for BSG.

I'd actually volunteer to run it if I knew some way to do so without having a physical game set up. I wonder if there is a program or something that folks are using to track cards, or a spreadsheet, or something like that.

I'm running a pbem now. While I would love to run a game here, I just don't have the time right now. But Ken, I would be happy to share my spreadsheet and show you how it works.

I am also running a Play by post one now...if I weren't in the middle of it, I'd volunteer to host. But I wouldn't mind sending the files that I am using to whoever needs it.

Are we full or can I get in? I can run a future game but I'd like to see how it works online first.

I'm very, very skeptical about this but I'll give it a shot. Let me know what I need to do.

Okay...Bistro has forwarded me the stuff and I'm looking over it. I need a little time to figure out the logistics of juggling cards, but the spreadsheet looks to eliminate the need for a board and figures.

So give me a day or so to piece through it. Understand that there will be mistakes made and I will not be able to run it perfectly the first time. If everyone's okay with that, here are our six players:

See, if this were a Eurogame the spreadsheet would eliminate the need for human players.

Is there like an ACTS module or something for the cards?
