I just watched September 28th, 2005's vlog update on rocketboom (www.rocketboom.com)and it had a piece on "Second Life" (http://secondlife.com/), maybe not a MMORPG per se but at least an online Sims-clone or something. Anyway, in the middle of the piece the video that was demo:ing the virtual world of Second Life showed the city at sunset, this is what it looked like�
So I thought, yeah, that's nice... Nice sunset, a little cloudy but, yeah. Maybe like an LA sunset, I've never been there but I hear it's lovely.

I don't suppose there's another larger cloud that looks a bit like a bicycle wheel just off screen, is there?

I mean, what are the odds? This has got to be some sort of record, most out-of-the-way Trek reference in a totally non-affiliated girl's game. They shop, they dress, they frolick at their pool parties, blissfully unawares of the orbiting Defiant and IKV Turncoat, ready to do harm so that they can sleep soundly under their Nikken bedspreads and mud masks.
Has anyone played this game? Does it perhaps contain more Trek ships in silhouettes somewhere?

IKV Turncoat? I thought it looked like the Defiant and Martok's ship from "Call To Arms". Are you along the line of thought that it's Dukat's Klingon ship?
Posted by Nim (Member # 205) on :
Yes, well both scenes have a Defiant an a BoP leaving DS9, the Dukat scene just sprang to mind faster. Though I don't remember if they were in a tighter formation riding with Martok, that was probably it.
Posted by AndrewR (Member # 44) on :
Just before they met up with the 'fleet' and they were being fired on by a few Jem'Hadar as they left DS9 behind.

Right, before turning 180 with the Federation/Klingon task force in their back.
Could it be that the same stock scene was used for the two pairs leaving DS9? Or when was it that Dukat dropped the charade?
