    Timo's Hobbyist's Guide to the UFP Starfleet

    Thanks, Timo. I'll be enjoying your efforts (and will check back next year). :)

    Timo's Hobbyist's Guide to the UFP Starfleet

    I keep a link to his Google drive and check every few weeks. His last posted update was last August. Here's hoping your question will lead to an update.

    Timo's Hobbyist's Guide to the UFP Starfleet

    > And also that I should not, because apparently I'm driving people crazy. A 'good' crazy, I assure you. No one ever complains sincerely of too much good sci-fi to read. I just really wish we could present this in a format where it would get more attention. I shared this with a Kiwi friend...

    Timo's Hobbyist's Guide to the UFP Starfleet

    :lol: Now I've got a real First World problem here: I've been developing my own wiki around the Guide, so I can run a Fleet-level campaign around the events Timo fleshes out so well. When I saw his last update in 2012, I wiped what had been built before and started over, vowing to stick with...

    Thanks, all for who posted their on-topic comments. It's been extremely helpful. These are the ten First Season TOS eps I chose (in the chronological order I've decided to show them): Balance of Terror Menagerie Shore Leave Squire of Gothos Arena Tomorrow Is Yesterday Space Seed Devil In the...

    Timo's Hobbyist's Guide to the UFP Starfleet

    Wow...just jumped ahead and read the Lynx entry. Excellent job making my head hurt by making timetravel incomprehensible to the outside observer. That, cloaked with the subterfuge of the project, really made that the one entry difficult to understand. You (the reader) come out feeling as what...

    Did Spock undergo Pon Farr prior to Amok Time?

    Very early on, then. Thanks, both.

    Stand-out Eps

    I kinda blanched at this suggestion, at first thought, because my recollection was that he was an unlikeable (note: to me) character. But when that shrill "Harcourt Fenton Mudd..." started spooling up in my head, I recalled the glee I always felt when he finally got his comeuppance. I could...

    Did Spock undergo Pon Farr prior to Amok Time?

    I think you're dead-on with this. Its easy to refer to Spock as a Vulcan, but it has to be remembered that -while he chooses the Vulcan culture over the Human- his body is an amalgamation of the two species. And, therefore, he will either experience or miss aspects of the biological events of...

    Good idea...it'll be an interesting read. Thanks!

    Hah! That's an interesting observation. I've got my ten eps plotted out now, but I'll go back later and see which ones overlap with Coon.

    I'll put that on my Second Season list. The Mirror universe is so often visited in DS9.

    Stand-out Eps

    That's an excellent collection...origin episodes are a great criteria for this 'project'. Monsters...good idea. I was recollecting that Man Trap might be too slow, but if I 'sell' it as a monster ep, that might be all it takes. Where No Man Has Gone Before seemed a bit dated to me, but it does...

    Balance of Terror...that's good. He's just starting to understand how actors can be known for different roles, so I don't think Mark Leonard's double pointy-eared roles should throw him off too much. He plays them so differently, too.

    Wow...long time lurker, first post. After being turned off Trek by the reboot, I've decided to introduce all that is good to my son (10 years old). I decided to start off with TNG because 1) Wesley appeals to a kid his age and B) let's be honest...TOS can be a bit dated and cerebral for some...
