Talk:Jack Fisk/Archive 1

Is Fisk a Commander now, or still only a Colonel? He IS commanding a Battlestar, now. The article lists him as a Commander, but refers to him as a Colonel. He seems to be listed as a Commander in most places, so I am going to change it. If someone has evidence to the contrary, they should change it back. --BMS 16:43, 20 January 2006 (EST)

No, do not do that. We don't know if he's been promoted. And we'll find out soon enough anyway, so don't bother. --Ricimer 16:50, 20 January 2006 (EST)

I know I'm really going nuts in using spoilers and spoiltext tags, but I'd rather do this than hear more whining on how someone's day was officially ruined because they couldn't realize that they can't plod through BSG Wiki with inpunity, spoiler-free. They have been warned. :) I'm becoming more aware when the spoiltext tag is more appropriate and adjusting accordingly. Spencerian 15:01, 21 September 2005 (EDT)

Preach it. --Peter Farago 17:25, 21 September 2005 (EDT)

It's possible that Fisk was the Landing Signal Officer of the Pegasus prior to the XO's murder. He could have been in the same position as Captain Kelly before Adama got shot by Boomer. Just a thought. Ltcrashdown December 23, 2005

Possibly, but we don't really know at all. I mean, Galactica is functioning at half crew capacity. Thus it only has one Commander, one Colonel, NO Majors, and a few Captains. Perhaps a FULLY crewed (at the time of the attack) Battlestar like Pegasus would have several Majors on board? Or maybe even more than one Colonel? (seeing as it was the flagship of an Admiral, it may have had more officers for that reason, as well. Anyway, I'm not quite sure on that and I hope the upcoming stuff gives a little more backround. Consequently, you have made a running start here at BSGwiki LTcrashdown, kudos; I did not notice that Kelly's first name is Aaron, etc; good catch (you know how scifi keeps scrunching the credits down really small? Makes it hard to read stuff, etc. --Ricimer 17:40, 24 December 2005 (EST)

Well I like to watch the DVDs with subtitles on as well as looking over the closing credit co-stars. You can learn a lot about characters in an episode that way. Thanks for the kind words. Ltcrashdown December 24, 2005

I agree with RIcimer's assessment. --Peter Farago 19:23, 24 December 2005 (EST)

I also agree. No reason to believe there weren't plenty of high-ranking officers on an Admiral-commanded Battlestar. I figured that I'd just mention Fisk's possible LSO history. It was just a theory. Ltcrashdown December 24, 2005
