Nerd Power!

Oooh... good question. Depends on the Klingon and Wookie we have handy. Commander Worf? Dinner tonight will be Wookie Steaks with a tall glass of prune juice. Klingon Redshirts? I'm gonna have to give it to the Wookie in most cases there. If sidearms are involved, it goes back to the Klingons, their firearms are smaller and more effective than Wookie Crossbows.

Also, we have to consider battlecries. Klingons: "Today IS A Good Day To Die!. The Wookies? Tarzan. Klingons win again.

Okay, Worf only wins so many fights because he's a main character and it's plot device. The wookie winning fights, well.. he's a freaking wookie.

Yes, I stuck up for Star Wars.. *shrug* Star Trek is all well and good, but it's just gotten so freaking stale.

 

[tolyk]

I've taken numerous kink tests, but don't recall my score for any of them.. The detailed one, I think it was somewhere around 500 *shrug* Pixie might recall, we took them at the same time, I was about double her score I believe.

I don't see a Klingon losing to a Wookie, with apologies to Mr. Lucas.

Hey, let's see if I can kill the posting for the evening yet again!

Hiya all ^______________^!! I guess I missed some b-days


Happy birthday to all *throws confetti cheesenips around*
I just wanted to say that I arrived safely in Eddy'stown, and I'm being good ^^!

I'll be on and off lit for the month- but I promise to pop on here and there <3

I think you were higher than 500... that was around my score. You were in the 700's I believe.

choice of Ryyk blade

I actually had to pause and ponder when I read that.
How? How, I ask you, nemesis, can you EVER claim to not be a nerd, and still know what a ryyk blade is?!

I mean, there's a limit to how much star wars knowledge one can wield and not be a nerd. That's not even feasibly within the realm of "nerdish tendencies," anymore.

My bet still rests with the klingon, if for no other reason than the batleth is a two hander, and therefore strength and a half, whereas the ryyk are one handed.

Ever think about the klingon weather forcast?
'30% chance of rain on tuesday, but quickly clearing overnight. It will be sunny and 70 for the weekend. A good week to die.'

And yes, my nerd ego was in peril there for a moment.

Webcomics, Oots is wonderful, and I cannot wait for the next update, and Looking for Group is good too. Though, the evil but funny black mage bit is getting a bit old. It's young, we'll see how it grows up.

Plus, to make this unnescarily long, I agree with EC's suggestion.
I believe all women present should explain, in detail, how their kink score worked out.
It's research!

 

[microbiology311]

I'd score so low, it would be embarrassing. I think we all need to know, in detail, why Micro's score is so high.

If I tell you why my score is sooo high(I don't think it is that high) then it would take all the fun and mystery out of my persona here on the board. End.. why don't you just think of some things that you have always wanted to do.. and know that I probably have done them. *evil grin and a wink*

I took the one in your sig line, and got around 470, but that's not the same one Tolyk and I took a while ago. The one we took was much more in depth.

Yes, I stuck up for Star Wars.. *shrug* Star Trek is all well and good, but it's just gotten so freaking stale.

To be fair, the Wookies only EVER win a fight because it's a plot point... that's how they're written. Worf is a freaking hoss compared to most other characters on ST, because he's freaking Worf. Family forced into disgrace after they were betrayed and framed by the Duras Family, he has to grow up as a Klingon among humans, being accepted by neither group and thus having to become the mostest badass of them ALL to get his family honor back.

And this is all just on TNG, before he even gets to do any real fighting on DS9 when the Federation and Klingon Empire actually get into some WARS (including one against eachother).

Worf against Chewbacca, I kinda see them kicking the shit out of eachother and then going to the cantina for some drinks.

Now, while we're talking about Sci-fi faceoffs: Darth Vader vs. Kosh.

 

[SexyCleric]

It needs to be said.
I fucking love you all.

The one thing DS9 REALLY needed, and left out, was an episode where Worf got to take on some Jem Hadar in hand to hand.

Kosh? who is this Kosh?

Kosh? who is this Kosh?

Actually, Worf does just that in the episode In Purgatory's Shadow, where he is a POW in a Dominion prison camp, and is forced to fight a long series of Jem'Hadar guards, who are obsessed with the Klingons (a fearsome race that lives for battle, rather than being designed for it) and wish to learn how to most effectively fight them.

Kosh is the Vorlon ambassador to Babylon 5, for most of the show, all we see of him is his heavily-armored "Encounter suit" which effectively prevents us from learning anything about him other than his apparent love of the color tan. For most of the show, you learn little about the Vorlons or Kosh, except that they are very powerful, speak very little and none of it clearly, are Not To Be Trifled With, and that Kosh at least has great interest in the Humans (then again, so does Ambassador G'Kar of the Narn, but he's mostly only interested in human women)

Nice score sexy, did you recently acquire some of those points?

You're right though, the test we did was MUCH more thorough.. there was something like 500 questions.. I think it was the one from Stegral's signature.

You're the man Tex.

See the DS9 episode... Falling Angels, or some such?
Federation Fleet tries to run the Cardie/Dom lines?
Beautiful.

I could have easily picked up what a Ryyk blade is by playing video games. There are probably millions of people who know Wookies use Ryyk blades. Just like they know Wookies use Bowcasters.

However, I shall grant you that my Star Wars knowledge does put me dangerously close to being a nerd, but I couch my knowledge of the universe in terms of my love for good stories.

I know lots and lots of stuff about various TV shows, books, and video games because the stories/universes intrigued me. Lots of those would not be considered nerdy. Lots of them would just be consider pathetic.

And, Braids. Don't you say a word

Can I at least say that I didn't know what ryyk blade was?

 

[tolyk]

Neither did I

You may say anything pertaining to Klingons, Wookies, and anything else that strikes you fancy EXCEPT what makes me pathetic.

Deal?

I really can't add anything to the klingon vs wookie conversation. I'm not that kind of nerd. I know what they are beyond that I'm lost. I need a nerd dictionary or perhaps something a little more robust, nerd encyclopedia?

 

[SexyCleric]

I've not run into ryyk blades in the games I've played.
Granted, I haven't played them all, but any melee weapons you run into in SW games are 98% of the time glowing pig stickers or vibroblades.

Good sir, the only reason I knew what a ryyk blade was, is because I bumped into them in the SW RPG book. Once.
You also capitalize it, knowing it's a proper name, and not just a generic one. Nerd.

There are probably millions of people who know Wookies use Ryyk blades.

Not a chance in hell.
Five bucks says there are more SW fans who have seen a vagina, than those who know what a ryyk is.

Braids, you would lose your license to carry breasts if you knew what a ryyk blade was.

Very good. I bow to you <bows>

I'm currently writing a treatise on the Wookie/Klingon fight issue. Beyond that I don't know what you could buy that would cover all that. I know there are various encyclopedias for both Universes. They are rather expensive, though and still don't cover EVERYTHING.
