"2457 Root Beer" Name no longer Pending!!

[Abe Kas 0]

Thanks to those who have made suggestions. I'll give you a hint: It is a coincidence. More hints frequently. An answer will be given July 4th, the day of the largest amount of consumption of the best beverage in the Universe!

 

The prize for the winner: A case of 2457 Root Beer for your entire crew! Just let me know when you would like it delivered (to your sim, silly!)

 

Also, to those of you out there that are artisticly inclined, design a label for the company. I'll take your suggestions and put them up for everyone to see and vote on them. All entries will get a case of 2457 Root Beer for you and your crew!

Duh, it's Challenger's registry. :D

Forgive me, for not make the question clear. The numbers 2457 are a code. You have to figure out what it means. It's a coincidence that the numbers are the same, so thats not what it means.

According to Wikipedia...

 

February 4 -The first nuclear-powered submarine, the USS Nautilus (SSN-571), logs its 60,000th nautical mile, matching the endurance of the fictional Nautilus described in Jules Verne's novel "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea".

 

OR

 

February 4 - France prohibits UN involvement in Algeria.

 

But I'm pretty sure it's more likely to be the former rather than the latter. :D

Good guess, but that's not it. Besides it not being a date reference, here's the next clue: It rymes with another well known healthy drink.

For humans, or Pandarians?

For humans, or Pandarians?

 

 

Considering the limited knowledge about Pandarians and subject to the upcoming interrogation(s); from what I've seen, I'd have to say that since a Pandarian will eat and drink almost anything and everything that moves on two legs or four, both!

 

Next hint: It's not water.

Wow...we could have had a V-8... :D

Good one! But the thought of mixing V-8 with ice cream....ugh. Which leads me to the next clue: Gee, already gave it away in this reply.

Coke™?

[Abe Kas 0]

Coke™?

 

You're idea of a healthy drink is Coke? Not even a least a Diet Coke?

 

Next hint - because you did get one part right, 2457 is the code for four letters, and they are an acronym for the meaning.

From above mentioned reference:

 

"There is also a bar (with holographic bartender), and it stores various potent alcoholic beverages, such as chech'tluth, Aldebaran whiskey, Saurian brandy, Tzartak aperitif, Tamarian Frost, C&E Warp Lager, Warnog, Antarean brandy, and countless others."

 

Anybody got any preferences? Receipts? Suggestions for further stocking? We all get tired of Root Beer and variety IS the spice of Life!

Good guess, not quite right. Keep trying! Next hint: It rhymes with every mammals first beverage, and you don't have to be of legal age to consume.

 

The Challenger sim is still very new, and speaking for myself, and I suspect for those other new players too, as a crew we are still getting used to our surroundings. Like, I just found these drinks in the bar! It hasn't been named yet! Neither have any of our shuttle craft!

 

Those drinks mentioned would be those that came as the initial stock in our lounge, which we have not had an opportunity to sample and evaluate. After all, one of the important missions of all Star Fleet vessals is diplomacy. We have to be sure that we treat our future guests with great hospitality, and serve them both selections of their home world, as well as exquisit examples of our own. Great results in diplomacy can result from relationships built around the informal bar table, and then used to better understand the other parties when discussions move to the formal confernce table.

 

While I've got your attention, would the RSNC like to add to its list of Limited Quantity (another clue there) and hand-made beverages for your discriminating customers?

Uh...does it rhyme with milk? Which means you'd spell the acronym [X] [X] L Q if you meant for the underlined letters to be included in the acronym?

 

Gee, already gave it away in this reply.

 

Since I've not seen people use the colloquial sentence starter 'Gee' on a message board, I figured that was supposed to the first letter of the acronym.

 

So my guess is the acronym is G I L Q . But I don't know how that would relate back to 2457, or what it could possibly mean on its own so it's probably wrong.

Yes, it does rhyme with milk. You did get the letter "I" correct! The letter G is wrong. To recap then, 2457 = _. I. L. Q. And as for the sentance starter 'Gee' all I can say is, it's the Beaver Cleaver coming out in me. Yes, I'm old enough to remember watching TOS when they were new episodes on TV.....

Is it...Made in Limited Quantity?

[Abe Kas 0]

WINNER!

 

Please let me know when you would like your case of 2457 Root Beer, Made In Limited Quantities, delivered. Please make sure that it is okay with your GM, and if it would be IC or OOC.

 

Congradulations, Caelan Fletcher!

Ah! I won something! Yay!

 

I'm still confused about the 2457 though.

And that must be why you've heard of C&E. :D

[Abe Kas 0]

It's a simple code really, based on your phone. 2 = B, 4 = I, 5 = L, 7 = Q.

 

C&E - Sorry. Don't recall that one. What is it?
