How do you fit two entire baseball teams (real people, not holographic extras) into one of Quarks Holosuites?” “Take Me Out To The Holosuite” [DS9]
We do know that Quark’s holosuites come in various sizes. If you’re talking about at least 18 people, each would require almost 4 square meters of area, or 72 square meters – and that’s conservative. Imagine they all start walking out the door in single file – the computer has to shuffle each player’s compartment around so that they end up by the door in the order they decide to leave! (In the episode, we never see a mass entrance or exodus, so it’s possible that the holosuite does have some limitations). That’s about a 9 meter by 9 meter space – a full sized holodeck by any account. But then again, there’s no evidence that Quark doesn’t have something of that size tucked in the back – for use only by clients with sufficient Latinum, of course. The poster who asked this question on the newsgroup (Marco Antonio Checa Funcke) after seeing the preview for the episode proposed that perhaps the docked Vulcan starship’s holodeck was used. Michael Welch answers that they definitely did not us
