Talk:Download City/Archive 1

Not Really a Place

Um, maybe it was me, but I thought Seelix was just using it as a term of her own, while the Cylons actually download in a Resurrection Ship--Sauron18 10:50, 14 October 2006 (CDT)

Yeah, I immediately thought it was a figure of speech. They probably have download facilities, but I don't think it's really a city. I already edited the article to mention that --Serenity 10:51, 14 October 2006 (CDT)

Maybe. It might seem logical, but then again, there is no ship in orbit. --Shane ^{(T - C - E)} 10:55, 14 October 2006 (CDT)

There could be download machines in one of the buildings the Cylons constructed --Serenity 10:56, 14 October 2006 (CDT)

Not necessarily. It's very possible that a Resurrection Ship is in orbit along with the Basestars. It would make the most sense, as a planet-side facility would be too tempting a target for insurgents. --Sgtpayne 10:58, 14 October 2006 (CDT)

Yeah, Well we only saw a section of the planet, and saw only 2 basestars when we know there are actually 5 around the planet. Also, a Resurrection Ship doesn't have to be in orbit around the planet, it could be anywhere on a System and possibly beyond to download Cylons properly.

And though it is possible they are using facilities on the ground, I'd say they most likely haven't built any for security reasons. I'm quite certain this was a simple term of speech, and suggest we change the article to say this instead:

'''Download City is a term coined by Seelix to refer to wherever the Cylons on New Caprica download, be it a Resurrection Ship in orbit or a facility on the planet. (Exodus, Part I)

What do you think?--Sauron18 11:01, 14 October 2006 (CDT)

Looks very good :) --Serenity 11:02, 14 October 2006 (CDT)

Sounds good to me. --Sgtpayne 11:03, 14 October 2006 (CDT)

I think the Nebula would have problms as statied in LYDB, Part II. I'll buy that wording. :-) --Shane ^{(T - C - E)} 11:05, 14 October 2006 (CDT)

It is just a figure of speech

In the BW:OC Bradley Thompson said that it's just slang. So no "probably" there. I'm sure there is a way to attribute that information to him and thus make it official instead of fan speculation --Serenity 08:34, 20 October 2006 (CDT)

Just because she doesn't know what it is, that doesn't mean it isn't a city. But it's been completely reworded so that there is no mention of the word "city", so there's no problem. Noneofyourbusiness 12:41, 20 October 2006 (CDT)

We should delete this silly article. There's no point devoting an article to a silly figure of speech Seelix used once in one episode. Philwelch 19:35, 22 October 2006 (CDT)

At the most, we should just include mention of it on the List of terms (RDM) page. --Talos 20:00, 22 October 2006 (CDT)

nickname used by Diana Seelix to describe the unknown or figurative place where humanoid Cylons are resurrected on New Caprica (TRS: "Exodus, Part I")
