"The Icarus Factor" or "Yesterday's Enterprise"? If not, I think it's time for a good solid hint.

Wrong Trek series again.

This exchange happens just before someone finds shuttle debris. Legible shuttle debris.



P.S.: Whoooa. When did fivers start carrying that "five" favicon in the URL bar? Funky.

"Galileo Seven" is the only one that comes to mind. If that's not it, probably time to reveal it and post a new one.

(You're just noticing the favicon now? It's been there since '03. Unless you're seeing something other than a clock logo, that is.)

All those destroyed VOY shuttles and you went with a TOS episode?

No, it's from "Initiations", with Kahr annoyed by Chakotay. I like that exchange so much.* I've been on either side of it many a time.

New one:

"That's it! I've had it with you people mocking my uselessness! I quit!"
"You already resigned."
"No making fun of my intelligence either."


The favicon I'm seeing on the subsites and individual fivers is a white 5 against a black-and-gray background. Maybe it's been there all along too, but I just don't remember it being there.



* (And of course the author isn't half-bad either.)

That's very weird. I don't remember making one like that. What browser are you using?

Normally I would let someone else try first, but since activity's been low so far, I'm gonna guess. And an episode where someone useless resigns... that's gotta be "The Loss".

Yeah, I'm sorry activity is so low in this thread. I can remember lines from episodes much better than fivers. Thus I can't really play this game, as simply googling a phrase within a certain website seems rather petty, even if it wasn't cheating.

Well, there's always going back and rereading the entire archive.

And I was totally going to guess Troi, dammit. *hmph*.

Hmm...given that Zeke seems to be both the keenest player and best guesser, *and* the most prodigious fiverer, maybe the "can't guess your own" rule should be modified to "can't guess your own for x hours or until everyone else has whiffed on it."
