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 Errr... didn´t you make a tiny mistake there Myke? I should have 30 points considering I answered all questions correctly except for the first one?

Youre right Valderra. I have no idea how I made such a mistake, as I even remember thinking you were one away from a perfect score. I'll blame it on temporary insanity. Scores as of Tuesday; Valderra -30 ConqueringWolf - 22 I'm glad you pointed that out! Scores for today's edition will be up later tonight! ~Myke

Hey everyone! Computer problems are taken care of (For the most part. ) Since I'm apparantly not as versed in HTML as Myke is, I won't have any cool pictures or different colored letters in my posts until I figure out how to do that. Anyways, TODAY'S trivia selection is based on the awesome Sci-Fi Channel show, Farscape. 1. What is the name of the type of ship that Aeryn Sun uses? It's also the Peacekeeper's main attack fighter. (3 Pts.) 2. In the Season One Episode "Thank God it's Friday Again" Rygel ingests something called "tannot root." What effect does this root have on his already out of control bodily functions? (3 Pts.) 3. Scorpius is a genetic hybrid of which two races? (4 Pts.) 4. What is the name of the device that Scorpius used on John Chricton to literally rip memories and information from his mind? (5 pts.) 5. What was Rygel's official title back on his Homeworld? (3 Pts.) 6. What is the name of the Peacekeeper obsessed with finding and killing Crichton? (2 Pts.) 7. Something about Zhaan's physiology is VERY different from the rest of Moya's Crew. What makes Zhaan different? (3 Pts.) 8. What is the name of Moya's offspring (2 Pts.) and for whom is the offspring named? (2 Pts.) (Total 4 Pts.) 9. Give me the real names of the actors who play... A. John Crichton (2 Pts.) B. Chiana (2 Pts.) C. Scorpius (2 Pts.) 10. Aeryn Sun is played by Claudia Black. Give me the name of the fairly big-budget Sci-Fi film she basically starred in along with a cast of (at the time) unknown actors. (HINT: The sequel is coming out this year. Claudia is NOT in it.) (5 Pts.) BONUS!!!! List the corresponding RACE of the listed character. A. Ka D'argo B. Pa'u Zotoh Zhaan C. Rygel D. Chiana E. Aeryn Sun Each one is worth 2 points for a total of 10. Total points available today: 47 (If I counted right) Don't forget to PM me your answers! Good Luck to all! Oh, and if anyone knows anything about adjusting your BIOS settings so you're able to detect a NON-ATAPI DVD Drive, please PM me and let me know as well.

you di dwell Wolf, and I always find it more fun not to research answers, but to each thier own ~Myke LOL Phew... I was worried there for a moment, what with the low point count. ;D And yes, it takes way toooooo long to do a research and try checking out the websites... I should know. LOL But with the X-files I was pretty confident that I knew most answers since I have all the series and the movie AND it´s much fresher in my mind than Star Trek was. I am a little disappointed that Wolf and I seem to be the only ones doing this though. It would have been nice if others could have joined in. Oh well... Alas, Speed. I will have to pass on the Farscape quiz today. Unless I really do a big research on the net, I won´t be able to answer one question since I don´t watch this programme. LOL But good luck to everyone else... Oh... and thanks Myke. I did better than I thought in the X-files.
