Heart of Gold was also the title for a Firefly episode, but I doubt that will satisfy the brown coats XD

8/10 for me. Slightly sad there were no battlestar questions but you guys were nice enough to give them a full quiz of their own so that's good for me.

What do ships from The Matrix have to do with spaceships? They don't fly in space, they fly mainly through the sewers.
Correct, they're hover craft, which would imply ground effect. You can't have that in space, can you?

[edit] Oh and uh, I loved the quiz. I'm not going to say I missed anything as you can't make an infinite quiz. I loved the mentions of Homeworld and TIE fighters. Thanks.

No Enterprise or Serenity questions not because we don't love them (oh, believe me, we do), but because they would be just too damn obvious. Besides, we had quizzes on both Star Trek and Firefly. Gotta spread the love around.

And "reverse the polarity of the neutron flow" is a quote and/or riff on all the gibberish that gets slung around in sci-fi. So lighten up. Sheesh.
Geek cred kinda dictates that you shouldn't be that far out of whack with science; I-- erm, I mean any geek would mock a show that said something like that.. uh

yeah...maybe I'll just shut up now...

9/10 correct first try?
I haven't heard of one or two of the things on there... but I think I got the troop ship one wrong.
only game in that question that I have played is Homeworld, and Phobos is just a small moon to me...

Geek cred dictates you should recognize a Dr. Who quote when you see one.

Ah, well, I will gladly abidicate any cred on Dr. Who. Never got into the show really.

Yay! 7/10 and what I got wrong I didn't know anything about.
Good thing I got right questions I should have known the answers to such as the questions about TIEs, Farscape and the Heart of Gold.
Good quiz.

First quiz in ages I've had 100% on, now I feel ashamed.

But not as ashamed as the people who don't know about the Phobos should, call yourself gamers!?
I've never played any of the
DOOM
games. It was the only one I got wrong.

No Firefly/Serenity questions? For shame.
Edit: Yes, the explanation makes sense, but still.
Also, does that explanation imply that there *hasn't* been a Star Wars quiz?

Heh, loved that it was mostly off the wall stuff. Glad to see Farscape in there, though, was surprised about LEXX, I didn't think many people have actually have seen that xD

Hmmm... Still doesn't explain the missing Hispania. Or did you guys never find its wreck drifting out there on the border systems?
Dude, I got 10 questions to cover all things spaceship-related. Something had to get cut.

5/10 ...I'm disappointed in myself. Considering i know word's in Klingon from too many Star Trek marathon's. Not enough game time i suppose.

100% on two attempts. Some really good guessing on that first attempt with 80% when I only knew maybe half of them. ;D
