Dominic Dale was doing punditry and was insisting that Ronnie would win even as Selby clawed his way back into the match.

Well, it'd be a variation on the usual quiz...
I'll start with my least favourite : Matthew Selt?

Not Matthew Selt no. It is a player that is part of class of 92.

An omnipotent snooker loving alien appears on the bridge of the Starship Enterprise. The alien turns Kirk, Spock, Scotty and McCoy into snooker balls that match the colour of their jerseys, and puts them in his pocket. What is the total points value of the snooker balls in his pocket?

I only know the original series (& films); never got into any of the spin-offs so the question suited me fine.
I have aquestion, but it’ll take a while to work out the answer so ... watch this space...

Would have been the same answer for the new ST stuff!
I'm more of a SW fan, but seems to be 3 different ST series on TV at the moment that I've been watching hence the question :)

Could be...but I doubt it
I know the question, but the answer is taking a little research - feel free to guess in the interim, I will anoint the winner retrospectively if anyone gets it.

Question is :
Of all the players to have played at the one-table set up at the Crucible, whose longevity is the longest (IE : the number of years between 1st one-table appearance and latest one-table appearance)
Ronnie O'Sullivan is one of them, who is the other - and how long is the timespan?

That is an answer in Snooker-Cluedo-Porn, a board game for adults only.
Interestingly, it is the scenario that crops up most often (a bit like the winner in a game of noughts-and-crosses almost always holding the centre position...
)

24 years. The other one might be McManus?
