Submit your answers using the Private Messaging Service here on Temporal Reality. (NOTE: You MUST be a registerd user here on Temporal Reality to use the Private Messenging Service.) Each day will contain sci-fi trivia questions on different subjects. Rememeber, PM Speed or myself (depending on whose doing the trivia that day) your answers using TR's Private Message service.

Yeah, What he said!! LOL!!!!!
I look forward to attempting to challenge your minds on various Sci-Fi trivia! Trust me.....I'm a lost cause when it comes to the subject! I think I know more about Starfleet, Star Wars, Farscape, BTTF, Quantum Leap, and a bunch of other Sci-Fi related material than I know about real life!!! LOL!

6. What program did Scotty as for on the Enterprise D's holodeck? (2 points) Gosh... they are hard. LOL Can you explain question 6 a little more. Scotty on the Enterprise D - did I miss something? And what does the sentense mean, I think you left out a word or two. LOL

I mean, I know some of the answers but don´t know if they are enough of an answer. And Mongomery Scott is Scotty. When was he under Picard on the Enterprise D? Or am I completely out of it...? LOL Additional: Just ignore the above. *rolls eyes*

LOL. I'm very lenient on answers. Given someone has a good idea of what they are talking about, they get points.
Scotty was on the Enterprise D once, in one TNG episode titled 'Relics' He was found is a ship, I think in stasis or something, unaged since around 'The Undisocvered Country' due to some anomoly. He came aboard and felt usless with Laforge since technology had advanced so much, but eventually he used some old enginnering tricks to save his and Laforge's lives. There is a scene where he goes on the Holodeck, and it one of the most memorable scenes in TNG I think.

Hehe, it happens to the best of us ~Myke Well, it happens to me because - unlike many of the others here - I don´t eat, sleep and breathe these programmes. I love watching them and immensely enjoy sci-fi programmes and love talking about them but that´s about as far as it goes. I don´t know every minute detail of every programme and that´s why these questions are a little hard for me. Oh... and did I mention that I LOVE those new (old) smilies? ;D

There is a total of 31 points avaliable today. Good Luck and have fun! Answers 1. Wolf 359 2. Excelsior Class 3. Gene Roddenberry. While lyrics were never used, it is believed he wrote lyrics to the theme so that he would recieve a royalty each time the theme aired. 4. Two possable answers. One is it basically protected the wormhole that was claimed by Bajorans, thus enableing trade between Bajor/Federation and the Gamma quadrent. Another was because it enabled Federation forces to hold an outpost in that sector, that basically helped to keep the peace between CArdassia and Bajor. 5. Lt Tasha Yar was killed in duty, and Worf was named as her replacment. 6. Bridge of the Enterprise, NCC 1701, no bloddy A, B, C, or D 7. She was part of the casulties that result from the Xindi's attack on Earth. 8. 3 9. The USS Stargazer 10. Farpoint Station Bonus Question: CC 1701: James T Kirk NCC 1701-A: James T Kirk NCC 1701-B: John Harriman NCC 1701-C: Rachel Garrett NCC 1701-D: Jean-Luc Picard NCC 1701-E: Jean-Luc Picard I didnt include acting captains or temporay captains such as Spock. Pike was technically captain of the original NCC 1701 but I consider him a temporary captain. ConqueringWolf - 22 Valderra - 19 Congradulations to ConquetingWolf who leads by 3 points so far this week. Note: Speed is having some drastic computer problems, so for the time being I will be handeling the contest untill he can get his PC problems solved. Wednesday's edition of the contest shall be posted shorty. Thanks Wolf and Val for playing ~Myke
