Drunk enough.

Damn it, Jim, I'm a doctor, not an engineer!

Can he stand against the fury that defeated Spock?

Yeah that about sums it up for me. Scotty is awesome but... can he?

nope.avi

I voted Scotty, but only just barely. This was a tough one for me to vote on.

Sorry, but the man's name is Bones. Come on.

Brentai · « **Reply #244 on:** January 21, 2012, 08:13:19 PM »

At least, that's what he makes people call him, because otherwise they'd have to call him Leonard.

I think I put too much effort into that joke. ;____;

Büge · « **Reply #246 on:** January 22, 2012, 06:20:52 AM »

This was a tough vote. I didn't know whom to go with. They've both saved the ship, they'd both make a fun drinking buddy and they were both tenacious enough to appear in TNG. In the end, though, I had to go with the one I had an action figure of.

I'm sure McCoy would understand.

Bones takes it.

Next match we've got Riker going head to head with Sisko. One of these two men is destined for the final four. But which?

Mothra · « **Reply #248 on:** January 23, 2012, 02:17:28 PM »

Riker seemed like the only guy in Next Generation, apart from Q, who actually seemed like a genuine human being who was capable of regularly enjoying himself. I never really came around to him until much later, when I came back to trek with an eye towards how impossibly restrained and repressed everyone is in that universe. I know it was Roddenberry's want to portray a future without conflict and without need, but it never felt like the crew members genuinely enjoyed themselves unless they were getting something they wanted.

And Riker would always get what he wanted.

Mongrel · « **Reply #249 on:** January 23, 2012, 02:25:50 PM »

It's funny. When I was a big Trek nerd, Riker was a favourite target for in-house jokes. He was usually just characterized as a jock/clueless idiot/comedically failed womanizer (his jocko moves don't work on these smart 24th century women! Nerd Justice!)/purposeless bridge furniture. All of which are (in retrospect) obvious jokes for hopeless cases to make. But yeah, Riker is just a ton of fun.

Brentai · « **Reply #250 on:** January 23, 2012, 02:40:06 PM »

Riker's problem is that he's written as an impeccable James Bond type and then portrayed by Jonathon Frakes.

But yeah either way there's not much that Sisko can do to top him.

Mothra · « **Reply #251 on:** January 23, 2012, 02:46:18 PM »

Did we ever vote on Chakotay?

i

i thought that guy was pretty cool...

Mothra · « **Reply #252 on:** January 23, 2012, 02:48:19 PM »

Oh yeah:

You know, Chakotay is pretty cool, but

Büge · « **Reply #253 on:** January 23, 2012, 08:46:04 PM »

Riker was usually the guy other characters would explain things to.

He was also the guy who would echo any commands Picard made.

The character started out as a way to retain a Kirk-like presence on the show but developed. Sisko was already developed when he got to his show and built from there.

And anyway, Avery Brooks has the voice of an angel and tenure at a drama department. He could, quite literally, school Frakes.

Friday · « **Reply #254 on:** January 24, 2012, 07:08:50 PM »

Riker baaarely edges out Sisko, 7-6.

Next up we have:

Q

vs

Julian Bashir

Mongrel · « **Reply #255 on:** January 24, 2012, 10:21:09 PM »

Well Bashir, this is a prety classy way to lose. No shame in being beaten by an omnipotent SPACE LORD.

Friday · « **Reply #256 on:** January 25, 2012, 06:28:45 PM »

Q takes it 9-3.

Our last match of the round is a tough one for TNG fans: Picard vs Data.

Smiler · « **Reply #257 on:** January 25, 2012, 06:43:58 PM »

Büge · « **Reply #258 on:** January 25, 2012, 07:49:42 PM »

I'm voting for Data, even though he's probably going to lose.

Mongrel · « **Reply #259 on:** January 25, 2012, 07:53:10 PM »

Wow, TNG did really well this round.

No matter how this goes, the only man standing from any other series is Bones.
