DS9 Quiz

[Dave]

Another mineral question, sorry!

Vulcans mining on an uncharted planet in the Gamma quadrant, discover ancient Hur'Q ruins, and a cloth with metallic traces of a fourteen hundred year old bat'leth belonging to a Klingon icon.

What were they mining?

 

[Maria8475]

okay again i don't know.....i'm gonna have to start paying more attention to minerals!!

Somebody else want to attempt the answer?

:star:

 

[Dave]

While you are thinking about this, what do you think of these Vulcans?

These must have been really dim Vulcans (obviously if you don't make your grades in class you become a geologist on Vulcan). They were on the planet for some time, but couldn't get through the force-field to the vault. Dax, Worf and Kor lower it in seconds.

 

[Maria8475]

well dax did have eight lifetimes of experience......i guess that would be enough to out do a few Vulcan geologists

BUT I found the answer!!!!!!! I just bought the Star Trek Encyclopedia (very very cool) and according to it they were mining Bakinium!! YAY!!

 

[Maria8475]

so was that right or not?

 

[Dave]

I should hope so, after you paid good money for an encyclopaedia!!

You go next!

 

[Maria8475]

During the occupation, how long did Winn spend in a Cardassian Prison?

 

[Maria8475]

what, does your encyclopedia not cover Winn?

 

[Dave]

I'm not playing, it's beneath the capabilities of my positronic brain to engage in such futile pursuits anymore.

And I can't find anything on Winn being imprisoned, but it doesn't have an entry for her as being more than a Vedek.

 

[Maria8475]

Okay, okay, I apologise. These quizes don't work without you, know will you stop being so emotional and behave!

She was imprisoned for five years.

 

[Dave]

My emotion chip isn't even in, and really I didn't know

 

[markpud]

seems like if Dave doesn't know, no-one does

 

[Dave]

How about starting afresh with some easier ones. I won't answer unless they are around a long time. I'll start:

What is Captain Bejamin Sisko's middle name?

 

[Maria8475]

easier questions might be a good idea, and maybe we should give our encyclopedia's a rest, it really takes the fun out of it.

Ben's middle name: Lauvet (don't even tell me how badly that's spelt!)

 

[Dave]

Can I accept that??!! It doesn't even come close!!

 

[Maria8475]

umm well i don't know if this one's any better but i'm going on pronunciation now.

Laafeate

 

[Dave]

Lafayette.

It is the name of two cities in the USA, in Louisiana and Indiana. I guess the origin is either French Creole or probably American Indian.

 

[Maria8475]

ummm so did i get it or not?

 

[Dave]

Yes, it's Benjamin Lafayette Sisko.

OK, you do an easy one, since my easy ones are too hard.

 

[Maria8475]

well i didn't think that was too hard, i've just never seen it written down.

Hope this is easy, i am trying,

Who was the 6th host of the Dax symbiont?
