  1. Welcome to HangTrek, a Star Trek-themed word game for the Fediverse! This is the sixth poll of the current run. One of Jeffrey Combs' many characters won the last poll - a fan favourite, Thy'lek Shran.

    The Rules:

    The host puts up something like this, with blanks to be filled in, and includes a poll with four letters. The winning letter gets filled in, but only if it actually appears in the puzzle. At least one of the poll options must show up in the puzzle, and this process repeats until someone guesses the answer.

    If you make a guess, please do it with a Content Warning (CW) so as to not spoil it for other folks still working on the puzzle, as an incorrect guess might still be an extra clue. The first person to guess correctly gets the option to run the next one, if they like, or to nominate someone else.

  6. For folks running #hangtrek or similar puzzles, I whipped up an ugly little tool to help manage puzzles and guesses. I should probably add a list of letters that don't appear, and maybe track letters offered but not picked, but this works for now.

    It's probably swarming with bugs. Caveat emptor.

  23. Welcome to HangTrek, a Star Trek-themed word game for the Fediverse! This is the tenth poll of the current run.

    Eeeeeeeeeeeeeee! So exciting! It was close, but The Ultimate Computer reminded people too much of chatbots I think, and The Enterprise Incident nudged it out. And again, there were fifteen Es.

At least one of the poll options must show up in the puzzle, and this process repeats until someone guesses the answer.

    If you make a guess, please do it with a Content Warning (CW) so as to not spoil it for other folks still working on the puzzle, as an incorrect guess might still be an extra clue. The first person to guess correctly gets the option to run the next one, if they like, or to nominate someone else.

  27. Welcome to HangTrek, a Star Trek-themed word game for the Fediverse! This is the sixth poll of the current run. The USS Shenandoah was a storied name before it appeared in Star Trek - there were four USS Shenandoahs in the US Navy, and an oiler that was going to be the Shenandoah that was renamed the Potomac prior to launch. In our puzzle, S showed up eight times. (Ironically, if you guys had picked anything else, there would have been MORE than eight. Remember - popular isn't always good!)

    Before closing the poll in disgust when you see the first option, look at all four clues to see the theme!
