I'll be giving out 28 questions this time. (14 times two, geddit?)

Go for it Buster.

Is it larger than double Frank's mass?

Did it appear in more than one Trek production?

Was its first appearance before the beginning of DS9?

------------------
You are wise, witty, and wonderful, but you spend far too much time reading this sort of trash.

Posted by Saltah'na (Member # 33) on :

Larger than Double of Frank's Mass? At this point, I'd say no.

No, it did not appear in more than one Trek Production. As for whether it appeared before the start of DS9, no.

Was its lone appearance before the start of Voyager?

So it was after the start of DS9, but before the start of Voyager. That means the last season or two of TNG, and the first two and a half of DS9. And maybe Generations.

Was it seen in DS9?

Is it artificial?

Posted by Saltah'na (Member # 33) on :

No, it was not seen in DS9 and no, it is not artificial.

Summary:
- It is not larger than double of Frank's Mass
- It did not appear in more than one episode
- It did not appear before the start of DS9
- It did appear before the start of Voyager
- It was not in DS9
- It is not Artificial.

Somehow, I think you'll figure this one out without any problem.

Is it in Season 7 of TNG?

Posted by Saltah'na (Member # 33) on :

No, it was not seen in Season 7 of TNG. God, perhaps I should wipe out 10 questions to make this more fair.

- It is not larger than double of Frank's Mass
- It did not appear in more than one episode
- It did not appear before the start of DS9
- It did appear before the start of Voyager
- It was not in DS9
- It is not Artificial.
- It was not seen in Season 7 of TNG

21 Questions Remaining (11 if I take 10 off )

------------------
"My Name is Elmer Fudd, Millionaire. I own a Mansion and a Yacht."
Psychiatrist: "Again."

Posted by Omega (Member # 91) on :

OK, that narrows it down to the episodes between "Ship in a Bottle" and "Descent, Pt. 1". And possibly Generations, depending on the stardate of "Caretaker".

Is it a humanoid life form?

------------------
You are wise, witty, and wonderful, but you spend far too much time reading this sort of trash.

Posted by Saltah'na (Member # 33) on :

Nope, it isn't a humanoid life form.

20 (maybe 10) questions remaining. Should I take 10 off? I'm reasonably confident that you can get it in less than 10 questions.

------------------
"My Name is Elmer Fudd, Millionaire. I own a Mansion and a Yacht."
Psychiatrist: "Again."

Posted by Elim Garak (Member # 14) on :

The stardate of "Caretaker" is before Generations's. But Generations aired before "Caretaker", so it probably counts...

Was it in an episode that was produced before "Lessons"?

Is it alive?

Fabrux, the Nexxus is larger than 2x Frank's Mass

Not nesecarily. It may have no mass.

- It is not Artificial.
- It was not seen in Season 7 of TNG
- It is not a humanoid Lifeform.
- It is not the Nexus
- It was not in an episode before "Lessons"

As for whether it is alive, I will not count this question. I have determined it is the same thing as asking "Is it a species".

18 Questions remaining.

"My Name is Elmer Fudd, Millionaire. I own a Mansion and a Yacht."
Psychiatrist: "Again."

Posted by Omega (Member # 91) on :

Well, we've narrowed it down to seven episodes and a movie.

Was it seen in a production produced before "Second Chances"?

It's natural, but less that double Frank's mass, and not a humanoid life-form. That's a tough one.

I'd go for those quantum singularity aliens in "Timescape". That's an official guess.

I think it's a good idea not to allow asking of "Is it alive?" or "Is it artificial?". It makes it too easy.

DAMN IT!!!!!

Ahem..... it appears that I screwed up. After visiting the episode list, it appears that the SSA appeared in an Episode BEFORE Lessons. Not after.

That means that all of Omega's Questions are null and void.

So.......

Still 18 questions left.

As for the artificial thing, we do have Artificial Lifeforms, namely Data and Lal, and we also have natural Anomalies, such as Tykens Rift. I wouldn't discount that question yet.

Posted by Omega (Member # 91) on :

Which puts it somewhere between "Ship in a Bottle" and "Starship Mine".

Did it appear in an episode produced before "Tapestry"?

Guess: The bio-mimetic (or whatever it was called) life form from "Aquiel".
