Star Trek VI: Undiscovered Trivia

[Rabrrrrrr]

A quick giveaway to get us started:

What's the connection between Picard's "uncle" and the young Picard from the episode "Rascals"?

Please read the rules of engagement: One person asks a question (in this case me, since I started). Whoever gets it right gets to ask the next question. NO ONE ELSE may ask a question. That's the rules, that's the way it goes. IF YOU ARE sure that you are a) the first poster to get a question correct, and b) that you actaully ARE correct, you can go ahead and ask a new question, otherwise wait for the questioner to tell you that you are correct.

QUESTIONS should always start as a new reply to this post - don't bury your question in a tree of posts. And put the question in the subject line, don't bury it in the post and put as subject "question". That's just ignorant.

LASTLY: no questiosn on "Enterprise" or "Voyager" are allowed, since the solid core of us who play this thing don't know those shows.

And HAVE FUN!

[Kamika]

1. one thing

Write the rules

[Terwilliger]

7. I would think

[calimary]

5. Ding-ding-ding! We have a winner!

Oh my, that episode, "Family" I think it's called, with Jean-Luc and his "uncle" is among my absolute favorites of the Next Gen series. Man, I love that one.

[Rabrrrrrr]

6. Right on! Ask a new question

It was David Tristin Birkin, BTW

[MrScorpio]

3. Hey!! I've got the Star Trek VI issue of Omni Magazine

Dec 1991

Now take that

[Kamika]

4. okay

what does it say?

[MrScorpio]

12. There's an article written by Nicholas Meyer

He compared ST to Sherlock Holmes. And he admits,"I am not now nor have I ever been a Trekkie or, as Star Trek fans call themselves, a Trekker."

There also a TNG article as well.

[Rabrrrrrr]

17. He talks about that in the commentary to Star Trek II

And he felt his lack of familiarity helped him make a really good movie, because he was, in many ways, quite free to play around, not having all the baggage.

In his case, it really worked out well. For both Khan and also Star Trek VI.

[Terwilliger]

8. Q: What was the full name of Data's creator?

:shrug:

[Rabrrrrrr]

9. Dr. Noonian Soong

Also known as "Often Wrong Soong"

[MrScorpio]

65. 1893?

With Sam Clemens

Mark Twain

[Rabrrrrrr]

66. Aye - late 1800s

With Samuel Clemmens. I don't know if they ever gave a precise date in the show, but 1893 could be a good bet.

your turn to ask a question!

[Terwilliger]

67. I thought the paper he read about the cholera epidemic in San Francisco

was 1876...that's what I recall anyway

[Rabrrrrrr]

68. And I was thinking 1885

So perhaps someone needs to check it out on video. :-)

[Terwilliger]

83. The creature was Tin Man

Everybody always remembers that bitch though

[Terwilliger]

Turnabout Intruder!

[MrScorpio]

99. You're thinking of Janice Lester

She had issues

[MrScorpio]

[MrScorpio]

104. Question. Dr Daystrom won a Zee Magneez prize

What else did he win?

[Rabrrrrrr]

107. The Entire Norwich City Council!

And this lovely tea caddy.

[Rabrrrrrr]

108. I assume you are pulling these off the top of your head,

and not going into your encyclopedia or online looking for obtuse questions?

[MrScorpio]

110. These are my favorite episodes

[Rabrrrrrr]

111. Alright - just wanted to make sure

:-)

Thanks for answering.

[Terwilliger]

109. A Daystrom Award!

I really don't know

[MrScorpio]

112. The Daystrom Award (if it existed) would be named after him

Clue: people get them today

[Terwilliger]

113. I was kidding

Nobel prize in physics?

[MrScorpio]

115. It was the Nobel. I can't remember if it was in Physics

The part of the episode that's most vivid to me is when that tech got fried by the computer.

The computer killed the IT guy!!

Talk about a turnaround

[Terwilliger]

116. I'm worried about GrovelBot

if he attains sentience...

[Rabrrrrrr]

114. The Nobel

[Rabrrrrrr]

105. Yep - go ahead and ask one!

[Terwilliger]

106. next question!

you don't know more than ME, son

[Terwilliger]

117. TNG: K'Ehlahr (horrible spelling) was killed by.....

:shrug:

[MrScorpio]

118. Duras

Who was killed by Worf

[Terwilliger]

120. correct

[Rabrrrrrr]

119. crap, I was too slow

answering a post in another thread...

[MrScorpio]

121. TOS question. What was the name of the planet

That was both the site of the final battle in the Earth/Romulus war and home to an ancient split colored species?

[Rabrrrrrr]

122. Cheron

[MrScorpio]

124. Correctamundo!!

Give that man a teddy bear!!

[Terwilliger]

123. ack!

good question

Let That Be the Last Battlefield

when did the last Earth/Romulus battle occur?

[MrScorpio]

125. In general terms, about the time of ENTERPRISE

After they wipe out the Xindi, I'm assuming that Archer is going to take on the Romulans.

They hinted at this:
"What's the Romulan Star Empire?"
"Gimme that book!!! Don't look at that!!!"

[Rabrrrrrr]

126. Q: Do the Q ever kill each other?

and if so, prove it.

[MrScorpio]

127. They could if they had no other choice

But they're rather "De - Q - mission" or banish instead.

[Rabrrrrrr]

128. Ah, but thee art wrongish.

and I like the de-Q-mission pun - clever! Took me a moment to get it.

:-)

[Terwilliger]

129. Yes

You have to see a Voyager spisode to see it.

[Rabrrrrrr]

130. Correct, but there is an earlier response

In the episode True-Q, in TNG, we learn that the Q killed two in the Q continuum in Kansas, with a Tornado. :-)

But I trust the veracity that we also learn of Q killing in Voyager, so - - -

Next question, all yours!

[Terwilliger]

132. oh, there are 3 Q eps in Voyager

doesn't necessarily make them good ;-)

or...4?

[Terwilliger]

131. OH!

The Q killed Amanda Rogers' parents, because they wanted to be human.

[Rabrrrrrr]

133. Hai

[Terwilliger]

134. DS9 questions? What is the name of Captain Sisko's ship?

[Rabrrrrrr]

135. Defiant?

[Terwilliger]

136. yes

[Rabrrrrrr]

137. I think we're the only ones here,

so perhaps we end this thread and pick up with Star Trek: Trivializations some other time. :-)

Plus, I'm going to bed soon.

Cheers!

[Terwilliger]

138. Adios

:hi:
