    We can’t because the borg components aren’t compatible with the resonance frequency of high quality Federation brand quantum slip streams.

    …but perhaps of we reverse the shield polarity…

    Could be fun,though I only give pause because of Spooky Spocktober shenanigans.

    Edit: Scratch that.

        A spectro-temporal entity, designated as ‘Echo-1-alpha,’ has been detected in the vicinity. This non-corporeal being is characterized by a persistent quantum flux anomaly, indicative of an unstable vortex in the space-time continuum.

        Further analysis reveals a matrix of chrono-displaced energy patterns, which we’re terming ‘psi- waves.’ These psi-waves are oscillating at a frequency of 3.14 terahertz, consistent with known manifestations of paranormal activity in subspace.

        (yes, I cheated)

          Ya know, I may have spoken prematurely. Look at it as more of a mashup challenge. I can bank 1 already inspired by this.

    I initially read that as “Technoblade Thursday” and was confused on why it was the the ten forward community.

    Reroute power to the deflector dish. Solves most problems. Failing that, reverse the polarity (even if it’s not a charged particle, such as neutrons - apologies to the Third Doctor).

    I’m really glad this theme thing is picking up.

    Feel free to object (I’m not saying this in any official mod capacity) but I’d say for now, first person to suggest a day’s theme should get to call it.
