    Still not sure what happens when one gingerbread person likes another gingerbread person.

    You get a load of gingerbread snaps?

    I can't tell you how many times I have been attacked at random by snowmen over the years in the winter wonderland.

    It should be no surprise we would help anyone who wants to bring civilization to that benighted land.

    I defend the Gingerbread Village because there's pie afterwards. Besides, I think yellow gingerbread men taste better than yellow snowmen.

    So we can in turn annex the Village for the Klingon Empire and then sell Contraband Gingerbread to Feds on the Exchange.

    While we cannot apply the Prime Directive, since Gingerbreads are not members of the Federation, they have clearly aggressed against the Snowmen's property by building on it without their permission.


    No, the Prime Directive simply does not apply. You realize there're no real Gingerbreads, right?! (I mean, 'real' in the fake Trek world). Winter Wonderland is all the product of Q's fancy. For all we know, all of it just takes places inside a snow globe (that would really be so Q).

    So, murder away! Or don't. It doesn't matter. Besides, ask Cartman: Ginger Kids Have No Souls! :P

    We Klingons when attacked by snowmen, always seek to negotiate. From a position of our boot on snowman's neck and a disruptor rifle up his frosty carrot nose! :)

    I think the Gingerbreads at least brought some warnog, so they are OK in my book.

    Qapla'!

    You do know that Gingerbread people are actually pan-galactic beings that have been running experiments on us for years, right.

    Or was that white mice?? :)

    Did you just ASSUME that Gingerbreads need two to reproduce? Or that there are only TWO Gingerbread genders?

    If there are posts here that do not appeal to you, or opinions you disagree with, the best way to deal with that is to resist the urge to add comments. Instead, engage with the content you like! Don't feed the trolls!

    The Snowmen are !EBIL! They have ALWAYS been !EBIL!. They do not negotiate. They do not compromise. They do not listen to reason. They ARE NOT interested in a 'peaceful dialogue where both sides of this dispute air their grievances and come to meaningful solutions which are respectful of the multicultural differences between them."

    They are a blight upon an otherwise beautiful country. They are a menace to otherwise peaceful and fun-loving denizens and guests of this magnificent land. They refuse to change their ways. Their only response is violence. Which according to Dr. Issac Asimov, is the last refuge of the incompetent. We cannot get them to respect us and leave us alone. We can only induce fear of us in them. Only then will they do what we wish. Which is leave us alone.

    Melt them down! Melt them down! Melt them down! Melt them down! Melt them down! Melt them down! Melt them down! Melt them down! Melt them down! Melt them down! Melt them down! Melt them down! Melt them down! Melt them down! Melt them down! Melt them down!...

    It's basically a true statement. After all, the competent can see the need for violence much earlier on ...

    Because we want their sweet gingerbread ore underneath the village and we dont want the snowmen to get it.

    And crumbs in the bed sheets.​​

    Of gosh. I suddenly realize a Gingerbread man would do so much more than just kick their SO out for eating crackers in bed...

    They need flour, baking powder, ginger, nutmeg, cloves, cinnamon, brown sugar, molasses, eggs, vanilla, shortening and about 10 minutes at 350 degrees to reproduce.
    This is an MMO, not a Star Trek episode simulator. That would make for a terrible game.

    Oh, you can definitely sit at my end of the table ;).

    But truthfully I just ignore the event because I'm NOT a bleeding heart mercenary for squatters. "We're entirely in the wrong. Kill the other side for us because of it." Is not an invitation I respond well to.

    Seriously, people. Winter wonderland is Q's amusement park. You're moralizing over a glorified shooting gallery.

    If Q hadn't intended for us to kill the Gingerbread people, he wouldn't have made them so delicious. Therefore I approve of an end to their unjust occupation or we might just turn the poor Snowmen into the next Bajorans, and nobody wants that ! >:)

    That would be unwise. If you enjoy consuming Gingerbread, you don#t want to destroy their colonies. You need to nurture them. The Snowmen are destroying your livestock!

    As I have said before, where else do you suppose the gingerbread men can live? Their village only takes up a small part of the entire Winter Wonderland, the snowmen already have a huge amount of territory as it is.
