That's why I haven't named my sheepies cos I know they are only on loan.

But i have named my sheeppies already. One is Woolsey, and the other is Woolly. I don't want them to go back in the barn. They're mine.

Think of it as a future act of charity. Or never reach 2,000 posts!

I hate to be the bearer of bad tidings, but there are only in fact 37 sheep. Sheep are dynamically assigned as you log on. Every night when you log off (or morning for those nocturnal llamasofties) they are rounded up and returned to the barn.

When you log on again, the nearest sheepies to the gate get assigned to you. It's called DSHEEP, which is a bit like DRAM, but with no Rams.....

I believe gribbles is recruiting more sheep to cope with the increased demand...

AY! Dax was the symbiont, not the host!

I never got that (they didnt run DS9 in Sweden). I mean was Jacinta (the babe) dead? Where did the hosts personality go? Was the host just a husk of a body which was controlled by dax?

In the mythos of the series, there was a second 'brain' that was transferred from host to host as the bodies expired - the new host acquired all the knowledge and experience of the previous hosts, and the joint experience of the new host and the symbiont was recorded by the symbiont.
In the series, the symbiont was named Dax and knew Sisko (the station commander) through three hosts, Curzon (male), Jadzia and Ezri. Dax is around 300 years old and has had something like eight or nine hosts, IIRC. The symbionts are native to the Trill homeworld and only a Trill can act as a permanent host. The symbiont can only live a short time without a host.

More detail on the various DS9 websites...

Now, having said that my version of 'Dax' was never intended to be confused with the series, they just happen to have co-opted it.
