- We've seen them, but thanks for the thought. --Peter Farago 03:40, 7 January 2006 (EST)
Noteworthy Dialogue[edit]
What's up with the long dialogue sections as of late? It's supposed to be noteworthy dialogue, not an entire transcript of the episode. I think whoever posts those (And i'm starting to believe its one person doing it) needs to keep it to a minimum, at least keep it to the point where it isn't longer then the article for the episode itself. -Bane Grievver
- I tend to agree, unless the lengthy excerpt has something very significant to offer. If others don't get to it first, feel free to truncate the dialogue into manageable and relevant bits. --Spencerian 09:05, 17 January 2006 (EST)
- It didn't take me long to note the high points. While "noteworthy" was deeper than usual in this episode (almost every character had a deep thought) the pivotal (and brief) comments that will impact future episodes were kept, and others removed. Remember that articles should be kept as short but as information-rich as possible. Battlestar Wiki is not designed or intended to contain an episode transcript. --Spencerian 09:14, 17 January 2006 (EST)
The Basestar that got away[edit]
Not sure that the Galactica and Pegasus destroyed both Cylon Basestars - thought it was indicated that one Basestar was destroyed and the other "jumped out" --Mobrie01 16:48, 19 January 2006 (EST)
- Questionable, but possible. One basestar was clearly exploding as the frame shifted to the other one, which was taking damage. Looking amount of damage that had to be inflicted by both battlestars, it's certainly possible that the second one was able to escape. Given that, we can't assume the other was destroyed. Good eye! --Sgtpayne 17:28, 19 January 2006 (EST)
- No, it was never indicated that one was Jumping away. Rather, we saw one blowing up, then we saw both Pegasus and Galactica turning their COMBINED weapons fire against the remaining, already damaged Basestar. Although all of this is told only visually, we see the second Basestar taking MASSIVE damage and I am positive that it was implied that it was also destroyed. We aren't "assuming" anything here, I think it's just our friends and Zoic "cutting corners" on the special effects budget for a frame or two. It was not possible that it escaped. I am going to revert your edit. --Ricimer 18:05, 19 January 2006 (EST)
- Then who were the "remaining Cylons" that "jumped away", as Gaeta said? The Raiders that went after the civilian ships? --Redwall 18:54, 19 January 2006 (EST)
- Yeah. Raiders have jump drives. Philwelch 22:13, 19 January 2006 (EST)
- I know. I just assumed that, basestarless, the Raiders would go on suicide runs rather than jump away. Unwarranted speculation, I suppose. --Redwall 23:21, 19 January 2006 (EST)
- If I remember correctly, there was dialog that described the Resurresction Ship being accompanied by two Basestars and some support ships. I believe given the visual effects, the intent of the story is that the Basestars were destroyed and the support ships were the "remaining Cylons" that jumped away. Just adding my two cents. --cp.hayes 23:37, 19 January 2006 (EST)
