    The episode game! (SILLY)

    OK folks, given the atmosphere of other non serious threads, I thought I'd launch a silly game
    Moderators if you think this is unappropriate by all means close this thread!

    Basically, players posts ONE title of an episode taken from a sci-fi series; this title must begin using the last letter of the previous one.

    For example:
    A posts:
    "The ties that blind" (Andromeda)
    B would continue by posting
    "Drone" (Voyager)
    and so on...

    Edit: precising rules:
    - Only sci-fi and affiliates (Trek of course, Andromeda, SG-1, but also Buffy, Angel... But no Gilmore Girls, Young and the Restless etc...)
    - Only live series (no anime)
    - Only american / english titles, for english / american- SPEAKING shows.
    - Please specify the name of the series!
    - Don't repeat previous titles!

    OK, I start:

    "The Cage" (TOS)

    From... "Empok Nor"

    "Rascals" (TNG)

    Nice easier follow on to start...
    'Wish I could Help you....Wish I could tell you,
    That I am real, I'm not something you invented,
    That I'm not everything you want me to be.'

    'And I am...Ageless. And I am....Invincible.'

    Exclamation Slight rules modifcations

    OK, I should add one more rule to make things easier and to allow us to use more episode names: if you want, you can drop the "The" in the ep name (eg, "The Emperor's new cloak" (DS9) could be used as "Emperor's new cloak").

    Otherwise this is just too much difficult and there are some great eps we would miss

    Thumbs down

    BEEP!!!

    After checking my ep guides, there are no TNG eps by that name (unless I'm mistaken). The entry is out, sorry...

    I take the opportunity to precise that of course only english titles may be used.

    So, "Galen" is out, we are back to "Nor the Battle too Strong" (DS9)

    I'm taking the helm
    "Gambit" TNG

    (Whoohoo, that's goona be easy here!!)

    Rules question: can we use titles from series other than Trek?

    Until we get a ruling, I'd doubt they have to be Trek episodes, but I can't think of an ep in a series that had "Galen" for a title either, unless B5?

    Ooo you are so fast people

    When two post at the same time, it seems logical that the earlier post takes precedence. So Ineti you're right, Perrryyy was first and we are now at "Encounter at Farpoint".

    BTW Perrryyy, yeah I think it would be nicer to use other series than Trek, otherwise we're gonna end up dry a bit too soon.

    Series should be sci-fi though (Dark Angel is fine but no Angel EDIT: this is allowed, see below, or higher )

    As for Galen, there are no Crusade nor B5 ep by that name according to my sources either.
