Sunday night Trek trivia!!!

[Ediacara]

Let me start off:

What city on Earth did the Vulcans make first contact?

[gyopsy]

1. San Fransisco?

lol. Hey, it makes sense to me. That's a hard question.

[Gothic Sponge]

2. It was somewhere in Montana

I forget the town/city

[Ediacara]

4. there is no city in Montana called "Somewhere in"

[Ediacara]

3. nope

[TheMightyFavog]

5. Trick Question....

(Note I do not accept Berman's corrupted retconning of the Trek Universe)

Humans made First Contact with the vulcans shortly after obtianing warp tech from Zefram Cochrane WHO WAS FROM ALPHA CENTAURI, NOT FUCKING EARTH!!!!

[gyopsy]

6. Oh snap!

Calm down dude. :)

On edit: I believe he did catch you on this one Dinoboy!

[Ediacara]

16. sorry but

Regardless of purity issues, there's over two hours of film in which Zefram Cochrane of Earth builds a warp drive inside a missile, which catches the attention of a Vulcan ship. The Vulcans land on Earth to meet humans in the town where Cochrane lives.

I'll give you a hint: it's in the western United States.

[Rabrrrrrr]

7. Darn right!

[Gothic Sponge]

8. A Trek purist!

LOL! TOS is my favorite, but i still love TNG, DS9.

[Deja Q]

9. Berman also got Paramount to nix a Sulu-based series because such a series

would hurt HIS franchise's continuity (TNG, Deep Sleep 9, Voyeur, and later and equally crappy spinoffs).

Then the jerk-off goes and changes his own continuity. x(

I hate him. Even Shatner is 50 thousand million times better...

Edit: Harshness...

[Ediacara]

10. I'm sorry that's incorrect

There are no planets in the Alpha Centauri system, so it's imposible for a human to be from there.

[EstimatedProphet]

11. One question:

How did Zefram Cochrane get to Alpha Centuri without warp drive?

[daveskilt]

20. well there a few other "earlier" contacts

the 2040 contact at the hydroponic farm in the pacific, and the many time travel contacts not to mention the most recent contact from enterprise (kill of archer now) with the vulcans in the 1950's

[Ediacara]

23. That is true

But I'm asking for the "official" acount :-)

[gyopsy]

12. An easier question...

What was the name of the episode where Captain Picard became a Borg on the Next Generation?

[Gothic Sponge]

13. Easy!

The best of both worlds.

[Gothic Sponge]

14. Here's one

Who was Nurse Chapel's fiancée?

[Rabrrrrrr]

17. Gene Roddenberry!

[Deja Q]

18. Roger Korby

And the actor who played him was probably gay...

The story "What Little Girls Are Made Of" had some nice topics, but Doctor Who's "Four to Doomsday" had a slightly more interesting take... but Trek did get there first. Except for the Borg, Dr Who got there first in 1966. :D

[gyopsy]

15. Correct!

A classic episode. I've got it on VHS tape still.

[Skip Intro]

19. Another question: What situation led Kirk to order a "double red alert?"

[Deja Q]

21. Ouch...

Something serious and imminent... the episode where Kirk encounters Lazarus, a guy whose actions are causing trouble with the whole space/time continuum?

[Endangered Specie]

31. There was a phaser on overload, he found it in a red alert light.

[Ediacara]

22. Any more guesses for first contact city?

More hints:

Western US.

At least one UFOP ship is named after it.

Close to the first National Park on Earth.

[Ediacara]

26. first contact city going twice

[NewHampster]

24. No mention of a town

The renowned Terran American scientist and developer of warp drive on his world (AD 2030-2117?), an eccentric genius who became a reluctant hero. Cochrane launched his warp test vessel Phoenix from an abandoned Titan missile silo in remote Montana and unwittingly sparked first contact for Earth with a passing Vulcan ship on April 5, 2063. (In a temporarily altered timeline, the launch and contact were sabotaged by the Borg and led to an isolated and easily assimilated Earth, but history was restored by the efforts of the U.S.S. Enterprise-E crew.)

[daveskilt]

25. no mention of a town in that cut and paste from the website but...

watch the movie they do mention it...

[Liberal_Dog]

27. I Believe It Was Bozeman,Montana

eom

[Ediacara]

28. YOU ARE CORRECT

Next question is yours!

[Rabrrrrrr]

29. Finally, that thing got answered

Whew!

[Endangered Specie]

30. Im here, bring it on

[Liberal_Dog]

32. Thinking Of A Question...

Okay,I've got one. In the Star Trek universe, what team wins the 2032 World Series, and in how many games?

[NewHampster]

33. Red Sox in 7

[Liberal_Dog]

34. Not Quite

eom

[NewHampster]

35. I'm dreaming

so it must have been the Cubs in 7

[Endangered Specie]

36. Dang, no clue, Yankees in 7

[Liberal_Dog]

38. You're Getting Hot!!

nt

[Endangered Specie]

42. Yankees in 6

[Endangered Specie]

43. Yankees in 5

[Liberal_Dog]

44. CORRECT

That comes from the Voyager episode "One Small Step". Encountering an energy mass, Voyager finds the lost Ares IV spacecraft and the body of Lt Kelly. Lt. Kelly survived for a while and recorded a diary. He mourns that he will never know who won the World Series. At the end of the show, as the crew is preparing to torpedo Lt. Kelly's body into space, 7 of 9 leans over the torpedo and whispers, "Yankees in six".

[Liberal_Dog]

37. It's Not The Cubbies

Hint: It is mentioned in an episode of Star Trek: Voyager.

[Babel_17]

40. I thought ...

it was on DS9 where Sisko is playing holographic baseball.

[Babel_17]

39. Tokyo?

In four games?

I remember the episode but not the details. It was a very poorly attended game IIRC.

[Liberal_Dog]

41. That Was The London Kings

The Kings win the 2042 Series on a Buck Bokai homer, but there were only 300 people in the stands.

[Endangered Specie]

45. Ok, then, next question:

In the magnifienct ferengi... what is the initial reward for returning Moogie safely, and what does Quark/Rom tell the rest of the volunteers the reward is.
