It was a hard choice between 'killing Gan' or 'Having Cally and Avon risk their lives to set explosive charges on Star One, then telling them to take them all down again'. But ultimatly killing Gan was completley inane. I think some of the things on the list come from an Avon POV when it comes to describing them as stupid. _________________ "No matter where you are... everyone is always connected." Lain Iwakura |

I went for "leading Gan into a trap on Earth" ... Blake was being dumb in pretty much that whole episode! And whenever anyone else pointed out that things were going wrong, he wheedled them into going along with him, or got shouty at them!
It's a shame he ended up being a rebel really... he could have had a very promising career as a manager in the local council  |

Leading Gan to his death was dumb but I thought trying to "use" the Terra Nostra was even dumber. _________________ "Women, food, and inflicting pain -- in no particular order."

Makes you wonder why the Federation were so worried about him really! Unless they just saw it as a good scam to get shot of Travis - 'Yes, if you could just go and hunt down this...er... highly dangerous rebel Travis, that would be great. No, no, you don't need to hurry, take your time about it' _________________ Everything in life is only for now. |

I went with getting Gan killed.
However, you missed one. Playing the "bounty hunter" trick on Tarrant in "Blake" and the disastrous results that followed has to rank right up there in the Roj Blake Hall of Stupidity. _________________ "Blak" sheep of the B7 forum family! |

You're right.... missing out that fine example of insanity is like being fully prepared to go camping bar packing a tent. |

I also think that flaunting his man boobs in Horizon, whilst not necessarily a tactical mistake, might have dented his image as an action man a bit. _________________ Everything in life is only for now. |

I think the dumbest of all the things Blake did...
Was not to immediately say "NO" in response to the question:
"Have you betrayed us, have YOU betrayed me"

I think Avon has to take an equal share of the dumbness in the last ep tho...! |

Hey! Don't forget Tarrant's part in that!
It has to be getting Gan killed for something that didn't even exist. _________________ Regret is part of being alive - but make it a small part. |

I'm with The Liberator on this one.
Saying "I set this up.." was the probably the dumbest thing Blake ever did.
