Brad has got to be Scotty. Nobody else will do there.

Nah, Sal. Brad would be better cast as a Tribble.Originally Posted by SalingerNY

Wait a minute, what the heck was I thinking?
George has to be Scotty! Brad can suck it.

Kirk = JDPNYY
Spock = JDPNYY
Bones = JDPNYY
Scotty = JDPNYY
Sulu = JDPNYY
Uhuru = JDPNYY
The Mike Myers of Star Trek. Yeah baby, yeaaaaahhhh.

You've got nothing to believe in but believing in yourself.
That'd be a really freaky show.

Kirk = AJ (NYYDragoon)
Spock = Ryan (or RYMASTER)
Bones = Trish
Scotty = Soriami
Sulu = Patrick.o
Uhuru = JDPNYY
ok, here's why:
Kirk - AJ will bring super math skills, and be more believable nailing all those chicks and leaving them in the dust -- it's what college boys do.
Spock - If you recall the original series Spock was a controversial character becuase he was a Vulcan, and they didn't like vulcans too much. But he served with them, shared his culture and perspective with them, and gradually they grew to accept vulcans as equal members of their society, even if secretly they still thought they were all a bunch of ................ing whackos.
Bones - Trish. Honestly, who's more of a expert on the subject? who's seen more of them? I can't think of anyone. Maybe Brad, but i'll go with my instincts on this one.
Scotty - Kevin is like Scotty to nyyfans.com. He's kept down in the basement but really helps keep things running. No one knows what he does, and very few people appreciate him. We ignore his drinking and anger issues because he's cute and lovable -- just like scotty.
Sulu - I dont know anyone more zen 'round here than patrick. Solid performer, follows orders, and always calm and collected. Also, wouldn't be shocked if he came out of the closet in 40 years.
Uhuru - Come on, no one else here has the body to pull this off except John. Throw a wig and a tight skirt on him, and here come the ratings!!
Kirk = JL25and3. If anyone around here is going to bang the Dolman of Elaas, it's going to be me.
Spock = Bambino22. Because he's right, and he can prove it.
Bones = JDPNYY. Somehow I can just hear him saying, "Damn it, Jim! You can't just leave him here to die!"
Scotty = DEADSOX, because he could hold his Saurian brandy
Sulu = Maynerd, so we wouldn't get lost
Uhuru = PalmerGA. I know, it's typecasting, I just can't resist the obvious.
I'll add two more cast members:
Chekhov = TheYankee. Because Chekhov always tried so hard to be one of the cool guys.
Nurse Chapel = Trish. Because Kirk banged Nurse Chapel, too.
A foolish consistency is the hobgoblin of little minds, adored by little statesmen and philosophers and divines.- Barry Manilow
Kirk = myself. I've watched more Star Trek than anyone I know, and I.......canmimicShatner...so put me in the captain's chair, baby.
Spock = NYYDragoon. Logical and emotionless is exactly what we need at the science station.
Bones = JDPNYY. Because I need to win favor with him somehow.
Scotty = ajra21. I know, Alex is Welsh and Scotty is, well, a Scot, but it's close enough. Besides, Futurama replaced Scotty with Welshie so I think we can pull that off.
Sulu = RYMASTER or Ryan_Yankees. I hear he and George Takei have something in common.
Uhura = Yankchic22. All Randi has to do is look good in what is barely a dress and say "hailing frequencies open." She can handle that.
Don't know much about Star Trek, but...

i don't care, as long as i get to be khan.
Since I'm relatively expendable on this board, I'd cast myself as one of the unnamed Redshirted Crewmen that face certain doom in each episode.
I'm going to cast myself as oh let's say Bones, because otherwise I'm not getting cast at all.

I am so ridiculously unfamiliar with StarTrek I'd have no way of answering today's question.
I don't think I dislike anyone enough to make them a character in that awful show.

I'm so unfamiliar with the show that I don't even know who that female character is.
Edit: BTW, you stink.

In that same general vein, I cast myself as a member of the same advance party who took the previously virginal Dolman of Elaas and transformed her, as it were, before Doc J arrived as Kirk (to whom she would later lie).
I'm Q. The rest of you are insignificant beings who solely exist for my entertainment. Your identities are irrelevant.

I've never watched Star Trek, but I do not like to miss a QoD.
Kirk= The Captain? This is big responsibility. Plus, he's somewhat of a Playboy.... Sam18. He's evil and devious. The kind of guy I want on my side.
Spock = JDPNYY. No doubt
Bones = Ish.... I don't know anything about this character, but if I had to take a stab in the dark..... Eric. He's smart and logical.
Scotty = Boz hit the nail on the head here. Kevin. No doubt.
Sulu = Hitman23. He's playing Sulu simply because I want him on my ship. He's kinda hot.
Uhuru = She's hot, right? Um..... Let's put Trish here. I hear she's quite the looker, and she is pretty popular with the guys.
Oh yeah, things are always better when Randi's around.
I really ought to reconsider my situation. I mean Randi doesn't even watch the show and she shockingly chose me for the character played by the gay guy. The universe is trying to tell me something. I can't get over my boob infatuation but what the hell.
Hey Ryan, you free friday?

It was nice to see 5 people answer the question today.
If I had 3 wishes... One of my wishes would be to make a select few of you Pirates Fans.
i really like the ones where we can have fun or poke fun at each other in a playful way, but the group really disappointed today. not your fault, John, they all suck.
we don't all suck, some of us just don't like Star Trek/science fiction at all..I would play along anyway but I don't know enough about the characters to do so! so there!
i was going to come into the thread and just do the "Oh my" in my best GT voice.
The two are mutually exclusive. if you dont like star trek/sci-fi, then you suck
Well then, you're in luck...

Captain Kirk - Me. Duh.
Spock - AJ. Science and whatnot.
Bones - Not ChinMusic. Let's take Sam I guess.
Mongomery "Scotty" Scott - Alex. He's the only European I can think of.
Sulu - Xenochimera, to keep Sam company.
Uhura - allybear, because I feel like she deserves to be on the ship. Don't know why.

Ditto. However, I am enjoying reading everyone's responses, even though I don't know enough about the show understand the jokes. Kirk was the boss guy, right?we don't all suck, some of us just don't like Star Trek/science fiction at all..I would play along anyway but I don't know enough about the characters to do so! so there!

Well I can't agree for the reasons you mean.The two are mutually exclusive. if you dont like star trek/sci-fi, then you suck
Chalk it up to question-fail. You've got to know your audience.
Face it, you've lost a step.

Meh, it's a good question. People have short attention spans -- multi-part questions are tough.
I guess I'll have to dumb down Tuesday's question for Sal and everyone.Meh, it's a good question. People have short attention spans -- multi-part questions are tough.

No need to dumb it down..just subtracting the sci-fi from it should do the trick.
Oh no... I'm gonna go with a Tuesday question that almost everyone can answer.No need to dumb it down..just subtracting the sci-fi from it should do the trick.

My answer:
Kirk = JimF(Tiberius Kirk)
Spock = silverdsl (the voice of reason)
Bones = Capt(Bones)Crunch
Scotty = Stick (Scotty) Michael
Sulu = #1PaFan (who better to find a Rest Area in space)
Uhura = Jersey Yankee (no one ever paid attention to what Uhura said)

Feel free to carry on any discussions.
Please don't give any new answers to this QoD.
Feel free to discuss the awards as well.

A few things.....
Steve..... I most certainly mean to imply that you were gay. I thought that everyone here knew how I have 'felt' about you at one point or another, and would assume that I was giving you a role simply because we've slept together.
JDPNYY.... Thanks. You rock. My favorite QoDs aree the ones where you ask us to talk about each other. We are more like a family than I would like to admit.
Oh... and Trish.... being Hot is not an insult. No need for suspicious face. You're cool. Everyone knows it. That's all.
Oh yeah, things are always better when Randi's around.
I'm sorry - I just don't watch Star Trek and so I couldn't come up with anything that everyone didn't say first!
