You could move the other thread here (or rename it) as that one is now full of spoilers.
I like this idea, or that a fleet of 4/5 cylons come in to help fight the four battlestars.3) perhaps the cylon ships in the nebula at the end will turn out to be from earth as well, not enemy cylons, but cylon ships full of replicas of the final 4/5! (notice, there were 4 ships when they zoomed out). You know, thousands of Tighs, Tyrols, etc.
Well, there are problems if you think it's just like that...Come on, if the five they've picked for this, and yes, I'm including Starbuck as the likely 5th, are cylons, then it makes no sense. If those five knew they were cylons a year ago, let alone two years ago, the human race would have been fucked. Ffs, you've got the three leaders of the resistance on New Caprica there!
The thirteenth tribe. How, I don't really know, but given the hints (Starbuck is extremely religious, the figurehead for Adama's ship was a Lord of Kobol, the symbol in the temple), I have serious doubts about her being a Cylon.And, sorry, provide me with your reasonable explanation for Starbuck's return that doesn't include her being the 5th cylon. . .
She died when her viper exploded and joined the universal conscious, which was actually a huge networked storage system which consisted of all the memories of those who have lived or died. They felt that to ensure humanities continual survival that they have to send an agent back in time to intersede, and they chose Starbuck.And, sorry, provide me with your reasonable explanation for Starbuck's return that doesn't include her being the 5th cylon. . .

(Thank you Spider! )
He said, "I've been in the service for forty years." Adama has also known him since the first Cylon War.Tigh looks about 50 or couldve been made a 20-30 year old adult when he came into boot camp and as a sleeper and\or had false memories implanted as Boomer got... (other than one older they all seem about 30 ish) not to mention the creation of cylon ai couldve gone bad very quickly. And machine intelligence might have geometric abilities to improve so they went from robots to genetic engineering in a few years...
Tigh is a huge problem on multiple levels. Not least his age, history (recall the flashbacks of them being esentially put out to pasture and their careers resurrected by chance), how long he's known Adama. . . unless he's a replacement (i.e. the original Tigh was a human, replaced by a Cylon at some point) How do *those* 4 end up in those positions after many years in place? You've just beggared the odds. . .

They knew the Galactica wouldn't be as affected by the network viral attack, that weighted the odds pretty insanely heavy in their favor of being the ones to survive if any did.
