Default Re: OT: Enterprise...What did you think?

hey Raynor, if anything is in agreement on warp speed, i will be impressed. i think whoever said that the original warp scale was on some cube factor was right, but in voyager they pulled that silly trash with "warp ten is infinite speed, and you will be everywhere at once if you go that fast"

of course, in TNG, the enterprise from the future was boping about at warp 11 or 13 or somesuch.. and in the traveler episode (no, the the wesley=indian god episode) i think they were up in the warp 20s with their hull falling apart while they were on their way where 'no one has gone before'

of course, i dont know if those slipstream drives and transwarp conduits and wacky tachyon thrombic oscelators (bonus points to anyone one who knows what a thrombic oscelator is without looking it up) use a different warp scale or if theirs is like the fabled amp in the quote below.
