Did Sharon actually deploy the same logic bomb to the cylon fleet? It seems implausible that they'd design a virus that their own devices were susceptible to. More likely, she was aware of some backdoors in their programming which she was able to exploit, in the same way that the Colonial fleet was decimated via a backdoor on the [[CNP]], not an actual "virus". --[[User: | Did Sharon actually deploy the same logic bomb to the cylon fleet?

:While Adama may not have been correct, that is what ''he'' said to the crew after Valerii completed the task. A backdoor gives access, but a virus or worm completes the programming. No, I don't believe she used the same logic bomb...but took pieces of it and sent it on a transmission frequency that no properly-programmed Cylon would expect to receive odd information on, especially from another Cylon with the proper credentials such as Valerii.

:::This has been discussed before in the episode article. The likely reasons why the Fleet didn't pick up include what Merv said, and that while the Raider ship may be disabled, the autonomous living element of it could still "kick." I prefer to think that it wasn't worth a salvage attempt since the battlestar wasn't up to fighting as its hard drives were restored and her fighters could only do so much if reinforcements did appear. One important note: ''Galactica'' hasn't mass production facilities to use the volume of scrap that they generated from the shoot. A more modern battlestar like ''Pegasus'' could have used the stuff, but at that time to ''Galactica'', ''Pegasus'' was as dead as the rest of the Colonial Fleet. --[[User:Spencerian|Spencerian]] 16:24, 11 June 2006 (CDT) | :::This has been discussed before in the episode article.

Anyone else notice the [[Blackbird]] is in the middle of our Cylon Turkey Shoot picture?

:Uh... of course. That's why we picked it. (Not really.) Good spot. I hadn't noticed that had been sitting right in front of us all along. Continuation of the mad props to [[User:Madbrood|Madbrood]] for the initial sighting of the blackbird in that battle. --[[User:Steelviper|Steelviper]] 11:07, 11 September 2006 (CDT) | :Uh... of course.
