SPOILER!!!!!!!!
Yeah, this was the one that got me and one of the reasons why I think that the whole Kirk characterization, overall, was the weakest. I think there could have been some happy medium between something like TOS where he just appears on the bridge, and TNG where watching central characters advance was ridiculously slow and involved.
Also along those lines, I recall Kirk receiving an accomodation for reprogramming the Kobayashi Maru scenario. What, about the alternate timeline, would result in Kirk being potentially left behind when the cadets were assigned their duties in the first place?
It just would have made more sense to just give him the accomodation and have him end up an officer on the Enterprise a result.
Quote:Then there was the fact that Pike, make Kirk first officer. this is start flleet. With a mill.ion regulations. Your going to take a guy that isnt even suppose to be on tghe ship and make him first officer on a whim??
