[QUOTE]Originally posted by Siegfried: [QB] [QUOTE]Firstly, Kirk's/April's/Pike's ship was the FIRST shape named Enterprise. But we thought this would be okay because the pre-E was to be before the Federation. But now we know that it will indeed be a Starfleet ship (NX-01 and operated by Starfleet) So what's up with that?! This whole damn thing sucks.[/QUOTE] I'm getting tired of posting a possible explanation to this. I'd have a better time arguing the flaws in John Mill's theory of higher and lower pleasures to a brick wall than trying to explain that you are jumping to conclusions and not thinking about this logically. [QUOTE]Secondly, if you look at the registry system, they employed a simple, chronological technique all the way up to the time of the Excelsior's, (NCC 2000 etc).[/QUOTE] Wrong. By most accounts, the USS Constitution was NCC-1700. As such, it should be the class ship. Yet, there are apparently Constitution class ships with registries in the 16xx range. Plus, there's the Eagle in the 9xx range. How about the Grissom? The Grissom was an Oberth class ships that looked to herald from the same design era as the Excelsior. Yet, her registry was 638. That would seem to indicate that she was in service LONG before the original Enterprise. The simple chronological registry system you talk about was full of inconsistencies. It still is. Take the Prometheus class ship for instance. [/QB][/QUOTE]
