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:Peter Farago|Peter Farago]] 20:47, 22 September 2005 (EDT)

: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.

I totally vote for this as permanent title. --Peter Farago 02:10, 17 September 2005 (EDT)

Like I said, I was watching and I just said, "Wow, just like the Great MARIANAS Turkey Shoot against Japan in WWII!". --- Ricimer, 17 Sept, 2005

Time

Wasn't it a few days (maybe even a week) after Cally was released? Kuralyov 16:37, 17 September 2005 (EDT)

Probably. I need to take another look at the timeline after I'm done with the Colonies series. --Peter Farago 17:34, 17 September 2005 (EDT)

Logic Bomb

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". --Peter Farago 20:47, 22 September 2005 (EDT)

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.
