[QUOTE]Originally posted by devinclancy: [QB] My thoughts on this, though I'm sure I'm re-hashing someone else's comments: Whole warp factors are, in the TNG scale, distinct threshholds where the power consumption drops suddenly down. That's the onscreen excuse for why captains order warp 7 all the time instead of warp 6.999. Whole numbers are just more efficient. So I figure at some point in the AGT timeline someone discovered some more threshold levels above warp 9 where power usages drop the samw way. And they simply named them warp 10, 11, 12, 13 etc. Infinite speed was then renamed to warp 14 or 15 or something. I think that's better than assuming they developed a completely new scale or went back to the TOS scale. -Devin (longtime lurker) [/QB][/QUOTE]
