    My XBOX broke again.

    How old was your 360?
  2. Testing has been neutered and the House of Commons has been shut down. Plus Stark is in the process of being booted from the Senate. Now I am not a fan of Stark but I'd rather have him stay in the Senate. Funny how Testing is thrashed for being too spammy yet the forum's description clearly states that Testing is the place for spam. I guess if folks over there want to have some spammy fun they can come here. ClubASVS is Testing in everything but the name.

    Wordforge

    I'm going to derail this as I see *bad things* happening if this were to continue. What is Wordforge and why do they suck?

    Stick to PS3. I've yet to hear complaints about PS3's stability. Yes it is pricey, but get a 60GB model from Ebay and you should have no trouble.

    This forum is weird

    Apparently we are not doing a good job as you are still here. Just quietly write your name in your little book and kiss life good bye.

    24th century firepower based on TDiC

    True but phasers and torpedoes (except quantum) haven't changed much since TOS to TNG as per Laforge's comment to Scotty in "Relics".

    The rise of sex robots

    24th century firepower based on TDiC

    Yes but think. ENT and TOS are like the early explorers\ cowboy types where they set their own rules (so to speak). By TNG and onward, they've become overly cautious and rather talk their opponents to death.

    I haven't seen much of ENT so I apologize there.

    New NASA rocket to be tested

    Piggy backing with other countries.
  11. You'd have to take it with a grain of salt since it involved a bunch of Rain men.
  12. I don't know the episode but I recall it involved Bashir and a bunch of idiot savants. They crunched numbers and said that if they continued to fight the Dominion that 900billion people would die.

    24th century firepower based on TDiC

    Since it didn't go kablooie I kinda guess that the ship survived. True, that ISD would be laid up in a shipyard berth for a while but it would survive. But you guys forget that the other two ISDs managed to survive the asteroid field trouble free. BUT on the other hand, no Trek ship has been shown to pass the same type of asteroid field and the only time a ship (E-D) encountered an asteroid field (stationary asteroid field) they refused to enter and wouldn't even risk a shuttle! But my bad, Star Wars sucks right?

    ISD curbstomps the Enterprise

    Why would you say that since a turbolaser is designed that way whereas the deflector wasn't designed as a weapon? If the Ent can withstand up to 12,000 degree temp but the deflector emits over 44 million, wouldn't that liquify the Ent?

    ISD curbstomps the Enterprise

    Wouldn't the act of using the deflector cause the E-D to melt almost instantly?

    Not going to argue because you are not making any sense whatsoever. As for the laser quote, that was against an opponent that had weak lasers. Besides let's say someone attacked you with a feather. You'd laugh and say that feathers can't hurt you. Now again what if that same guy had a bag with 100lbs of feathers and hit you with it. Are you still immune to feathers? Scale up the lasers to turbolasers and tell me again that they'd never pass through the navigational deflectors. I'll respond more about it later If there was no clouds then it is even worse. A small part of the planet being pounded and the end result was the same! No change! If I was to destroy\liquify\burn\etc.. one third of anything you would see actual damage not tilling the soil! My god the Romulans and the Cardassians have just helped the Founders with their farming by tilling the soil with beam weaponry and torpedoes! Geez, what happened to the old fashion way of using a horse? True but that also doesn't help your case if you cannot agree on the term "destroy". Did they destroy the landscape but other than that the planet remained unscathed? I'm not going to argue over Scooter as better debaters than I have crushed him like a bug. For the first part, they were going full speed after the MF and the ship that got hit only lost partial functionality yet was not destroyed. The others were unscathed. Gee 100% survival rate with 33% of sustaining damage. While the E-D wouldn't even risk a shuttle. Yea, good rebuttal. You'll have to clarify the CW part.

    Mike Wong. He runs SDN (StarDestroyer.net). A good board but they look down on trolls.

    Technobabble solution thread

    Since the ant farm would be on my ship and in my quarters, I'd once again transport the Klingons into space. Scenario: You and the whole command crew are locked out from the main computer. You cannot move the ship, defend yourself or plainly put you and your crew have lost access to the ship. At the same time, a bunch of Neelix, Janeway and old Spock clones appear demanding that you and you alone have sex with them all at the same time or else you'll still be screwed over except the ship gets blown up. What do you do? P.S. at the same time your souffle is cooked and you need to get it before it goes crispy. Save the souffle!

    It doesn't explain why the Enterprise could not break out from the asteroid without using up all of their torpedoes(Pegasus), yet less firepower was thrown about destroying one third of the planet's crust?

    Transport the Ferengi crew into space! Then blast the ship into smithereenies! As for the bee colony, just gas them.

    ISD curbstomps the Enterprise

    Though I dispute the 150 to 190,000km range but the saucer section of both ship classes are identical. It is the drive section that is different. so they'd both would have similar firing range unless of course the Nebula cannot put in as much energy into their phaser banks as the Galaxy.

    24th century firepower based on TDiC

    Phasers are useless against neutronium yet turbolasers can destroy it. None whatsoever other than some rippling of the clouds. For a third of a planet's crust to be destroyed in ten seconds, you would have to be able to see it from orbit more than wobbly clouds! I'd question the captain's competence if he didn't flinch at the results and asked some questions as to why a third of Moscow was reduced to ruins within ten seconds when he was told that it would take an hour to completely destroy the city. I'd certainly would question my men as to why I was falsely told that it would take an hour when at most it would have taken a total of half a minute. I have no doubt that they could *damage* a planet, we are doing the same right now to Earth! But outright destroy a planet will take a whole lot more planets than one or twenty. Base Delta Zero is canon\official by Lucasfilm (or whoever sets the standards). Until it is outright disproven then BDZ will reduce a planet's crust into lava up to a depth of somewhere between half a mile to a mile. As for ST firepower. In Pegasus, it was mentioned that it would have taken all of E-D's torpedoes to destroy the asteroid and escape. If the Fed's firepower is of so powerful then one or two torps would only have been needed not over 200. Jango Fett had an easy time destroying asteroids with his seismic charges. As for overall sturdiness, easy to compare as E-D couldn't maneuver through a stationary asteroid field yet ISDs were able to go through a violent asteroid field. Sorry but ST's firepower is sorely lacking compared to SW.
