In light of recent events, a coordinated response and therefore some discussion on how to proceed is required.

For that purpose, everyone please come to gunnery in five hours sharp.

[ it's vague and imprecise but for time and place, but that is entirely deliberate. the whole point of doing this off the network instead of on it is to avoid giving away more than necessary. ]

[ ooc: see also this post for ooc coordination and this log. ]

Stick around with me after?

Of course. [ they'll have plenty to discuss. ]

Thanks. See you down there.

Everyone?

Against our better judgement, yeah. Everyone

After all this time, you still don't have a more efficient method for making decisions than asking everyone on board?

It's a democracy. Everyone gets a say, and that's how this goes. Normally we don't get everyone in a room to shout about it. This is just a special occasion.

Even with a democracy. What if there were tens of thousands of passengers, and all of them sheep farmers? Would their opinion hold as much weight as one admiral, in matters of military defense?

Up here, on this ship? Yes.

That's interesting. If we were attacking, that's the first thing we'd take advantage of.

We meaning who?

My people were at war with humanity. They call us Cylons, or toasters, if they're being particularly vulgar.
The point is, it's easy to destroy something which is already tearing itself apart. Disorganization is the ultimate threat, short of actual self-destruction.
