Thanks for doing something to honor him. I was bummed we didn't get a black bar for him today here on HN (I know he's not STEM but honorary STEM?).

The game might be too hard? I have watched A LOT of TNG and didn't make the first few guesses correctly and then bailed out.

I take it back, it's not too hard.

I didn't realize the first round through that each game was for the same episode. I also didn't realize I could search for plot keywords. That made it a lot easier and I haven't missed one yet.

Love that episode. I remember immediately being reminded of balut [1] when Picarde eats the alien egg.

How would he be honorary STEM? Do you consider real life aircraft employees to also be STEM or honorary STEM.

Looking for Red Letter Media's Honoring of Sir Patrick Stewart myself.

Is it cheating when you can search for a plot element you know from the episode but have no idea of the title? For example: The Big Goodbye. A newspaper suggests either the holodeck or time travel but you can merely enter "holodeck" and get a list of a dozen candidates. Sub Rosa and "grandmother"? Shame you can't search for "vasquez rocks"

No, not cheating. You are playing the way it was intended. Maybe we need a hard mode to turn off the plots.

That's a dumb game.

I know the first one I got was the anachronistic Irish and the clones. No clue of the episode name.

I know it's 2nd season cause it's Pulaski as doctor. I liked her over Crusher. And she called the clones' bluff immediately!

Is it dumb because you don't know the names of the episodes? There are hardcore trekkies who can list all the episode names easily. Maybe this game is for them?

I wanna fall in love. But we never had a chance to meet that Jean Luc Picard because that was a character. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wyKq7Aax-hI
