We're going to try something a little different. In an effort to get more people involved, trivia will not just go Sunday-Sunday, rather all month long. This way more people are able to participate in the challenges and point totals are higher. I'm refilling the trivia bank and will begin posting questions shortly after the New Year. Hint: The first question will be one from Star Trek: The Original Series.

A) Yes (ST:TNG – Encounter at Farpoint: Part 1 of 2). This question is a little bit tricky, as most people think of Wesley Crusher as the first child crew member onboard. He becomes part of the crew as of the 2nd episode. However, when CAPT Picard talks with CDR Riker, the first collateral duty he assigns pertains to "children members of the crew". IMDB was probably referring to Wesley.
Standings:
Mohdanni: 4.75
Naberrie: 2
Everyone Else: 0
Question 7) The character, "Neelix", in Star Trek: Voyager is 7/8 one species and 1/8 another. What species is he "mostly"? For an extra quarter point, of what species is he 1/8?

Be sure to spread the word in OTF chat (and any other friends who enjoy ST Trivia) - people begin to zone me out if I'm the only one advertising.
Question 8) Hikaru Sulu, from Star Trek: The Original Series, was born in which Earth city?
