    Hello, Welcome!

    We recently completed the The Magicks of Megas-Tu thread in the TOS/TAS forum!

    For any unfamiliar with our "game," you are asked to post only a single line (defined as one character speaking without interruption by another character) per message. You can post as often as you like, but someone else must post a line in between your posts.

    Our "rule" is that if the episode has a "To Be Continued..." on the end, it is done in a single thread, but if it's just an arc of related episodes (like the Dominion Occupation Arc on DS9 or the Xindi Arc on ENT), each episode is a separate thread.

    Get ready for a story, here we go!

    Paris: Got it. Warp 9.6, 9.7. I'm reading a fracture in the port nacelle pylon.

    Paris: Warp 9.9, 9.95. I'm approaching the threshold, but the nacelle isn't holding!

    Torres (continued): It's the pylon again. Every time we get close to crossing the threshold, the subspace torque rips a nacelle off the shuttle.

    Kim: What about a duranium alloy? We could try using it to reinforce...

    PARIS: Great. Do you know anything about quantum warp theory or multi-spectral subspace engine design?
