/c/TenFoward: Your home-away-from-home for all things Star Trek!

Re-route power to the shields, emit a tachyon pulse through the deflector, and post all the nonsense you want. Within reason of course.

~ 1. No bigotry or fascism. This is a Star Trek community. Hating someone off of their race, culture, creed, sexuality, or identity is not remotely acceptable, neither is supporting people who actively want to kill those groups. Mistakes can happen but do your best to respect others.

~ 2. Keep it civil. Disagreements will happen both on lore and preferences. That's okay! Just don't let it make you forget that the person you are talking to is also a person.

~ 3. Use spoiler tags. This applies to any episodes that have dropped within 3 months prior of your posting. After that it's free game.

~ 4. Keep it Trek related. This one is kind of a gimme but keep as on topic as possible.

~ 5. Keep posts to a limit. We all love Star Trek stuff but 3-4 posts in an hour is plenty enough.

~ 6. Try to not repost. Mistakes happen, we get it! But try to not repost anything from within the past 1-2 months.

~ 7. No General AI Art. Posts of simple AI art do not 'inspire jamaharon' and fuck over our artist friends.

Fun will now commence.

First clue: Okay, think, who got slowly promoted from Ensign throughout the show?

Second clue: So mean!

3 points, yay! Just couldn't help yourself, could you?

spoilerIn my head, I worded it as "Harry's rank throughout the show"

Well done!

TBH, I'm hanging out with Bev this evening and was mostly just struggling getting the templates put together, lol. With that out of the way, I can actually focus on some better trivia.

Re: Your spoilerI had to be specific about it since he did get promoted in alternate timelines, but your answer is perfectly acceptable.

I'm not familiar with the original program, but the setup looks good. You've earned your treat. Give "Ghostfucker" my love.

[–] Repelle@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago

Same exact thing for me. 3 points and with the second reveal I knew it must be Harry Kim’s rank

[–] jawa21@lemmy.sdf.org 5 points 2 months ago

I kept thinking it was

Tap for spoilerEnsign Harry Kim

the entire time, and proved myself to be insane by expecting different results .

Tap for spoilerI haven't watched all of Voyager, so thanks for all the memes everyone! 😂

I got the bonus wrong; my guess was

Tap for spoilerRanks of the main characters of Lower Decks

4 points.

This is making it even harder to wait for the season of Only Connect to finish so I can binge.

[–] theilleists@lemmy.world 3 points 2 months ago (1 children)

0 pointsBut only because I was treating it like a real game of Only Connect and figured there was at least a 50/50 chance I was just being baited into saying "Ensign" so Victoria could mock me.

This reminds me of last year's Christmas present from my husband - a homebrew powerpoint Only Connect game based on our favorite media. Instead of "twisted flax" or "two reeds" my categories were things like "lightsaber" or "Starfleet insignia." Love the format (and that sweet man).

a homebrew powerpoint Only Connect game

Funny story. I found and used a Power Point version of the game as the template for this.

[–] jpreston2005@lemmy.world 2 points 1 month ago

Four points!

admittedly laughed out loud, Poor Harry

[–] cybervseas@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago
[–] Viking_Hippie@lemmy.world 2 points 2 months ago

Looking at the first clue, my guess was "Ensign Wesley Crusher Fucks"

[–] fakeman_pretendname@feddit.uk 2 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Hahaha, Five points! I've hardly ever got five points on an Only Connect. Bit of a cheeky guess though :) I love these, please do more :)

[Edit] couldn't make spoiler work. Anyway, I didn't specify the timeline bit, but you said that was fine in a different response
