    Hey, I didn't claim the answer!! Playing within the rules here!! :D

    Ah I know, just joking :D

    Gnome basically told us the answer on thread so I suggested he go again seeing as that question was nigh impossible.

    Also for future reference, we shouldn't have to worry about spelling mistakes for answers. Once we're on the right note, the answer should be accepted. Ok with everyone?


    Ah I know!! Was playing along!! ;)

    But, yeah, I agree about the spelling rule. Close enough is good enough.

    Right the full answer is that the shuttle was called the Onizuka after Ellison Onizuka, a mission specialist who died aboard the Challenger. He was the first Asian-American in space.

    I'll try again. William Riker has been called many things but he's only been called Bill twice, name those episodes!

    For God Sake, you could write a quiz book man! :D

    Troi called him it I think...& maybe Pulaski? Not even surt who called him Bill, let alone episode names


  • Registered Users Posts: 1,731 ✭✭✭GreenWolfe


    Is one of those episodes Haven?

    I don't know if my memory is fooling me but I think Troi called Cmdr. Riker "Bill" in that episode they were talking in the holodeck after Deanna stormed out of that pre-wedding party thing.

    Was it the ep where his dad came on board?

    Nope, but if anyone doesn't know the ep name a description like this will do. Clue is that it was a very early ep.

    Did Picard call him Bill when he was temporarily turned into a Q??

    'Fraid not. Ok, I don't think anyone will get it. It was the episode with the intoxicating virus, The Naked Now.

    I'll tone it back a bit and try an easier one. What were the names of the humpback whales in The Voyage Home?

    He always reminds me of a certain Goblin King...

    He was a xindi AND an 8472, i never specified in the question.

    Looks like it's up to Magnus Mastersson.... Oops, sorry, Gnome, to come up with the question!

    My apologies, you are correct.

    Even though if we want to be pedantic about it it was an 8472 playing Admiral Bullock (desperate face saving measure!! :D;))

    I'll ask the next question seeing as I got half of one right.

    An easy enough one.

    What was the name of the Starship Data commanded in the episode Redemption?
