STAR TREK's Faran Tahir Says He'd Ace Kobayashi Maru Test

I like how Sulu handled it in one of the novels.

Pretty much. "Fuck 'em. I'm not risking 400 lives on a dozen dumbasses who knew this area was off-limits."

I would ask why the Klingons were in the Zone in the first place. Their being there was an act of war in the first place. Therefore it's a trap. In the game Starfleet Academy, the Kobiyashi Maru is the final mission.

They tried talking in Star Trek 2, ya........they werent having any of that.

That's my friends dad. HI JAVAN!!!

It is winnable......most people assume combat is the answer...though in reality denying the test combat is the way to win :) Thats how I would beat it......lets just say Geordi La Forge used my method to get Captain Picard places fast:)

The Klingon ships would have fled in terror when they learnt they were up against Captain Robau.

You can't fail the test, since it's rigged to be unwinnable. It's more test of cahracter.

Which makes it hilarious that whenever someone talks about it, they talk about how someone hilariously stuck it to the test.

For example, Scotty knew the limitations of the computer that ran the test, and basically used tons of exploits to get his 'ship' to do things that weren't physically possible.

And then you have Mackenzie Calhoun, who just blew up the freighter and went on his merry way, because OF COURSE it was a trap! XD
