Guess the character game (read the first post before playing)...

[Reply #160 on:]

No sir!

1 - This character has but one line.

2 - This character appears in but one episode.

3 - This character is also an inanimate object.

4 - Bonus hint! This character appears in the first season.

5 - This character is not in The Series Has Landed or Space Pilot 3000.

Bart Simpson doll?

"Eat my shorts."
Is an inanimate object, a doll.
Appears in A Big Piece of Garbage, season 1.

Ooh, good guess QNF! Unfortunately

Show spoiler

It is correct, and you win!

• When making a guess, you should list the reasons why your guess fits the facts about the character. Don't just post your guess, like some kind of idiot.

We're fans of Futurama. Do I need to spell out why the character fits the description because folks like you are not familiar with all of the characters of the show? Was it not obvious to you that Pazuzu fit the criteria, or are you just being a typical peeler that complains and gripes when folks don't follow these ridiculous rules? This is the 21st century. Real forums look like Reddit and mma.tv.

There would be more members here if there were less members like you.

Go inflict yourself upon one of those "real forums" if you prefer how things are done there. Or go play one of the other games on this forum that have fewer rules.

Perhaps because it discourages torrential cascades of random guesses from people who are not familiar with all the characters?  Or maybe because the process helps people recognize that their initial guess might not have been correct?

Or perhaps this thread was created by someone coerced by an alien intelligence with the aim of gathering all of the peel pedants into one place so that they could be exterminated efficiently.  By the way, perhaps you meant to write "There would be more members here if there were fewer members like you."?

1. Voiced by guest voice actor.

1. Beatrice Arthur

3. Came from another planet

[Reply #169 on:]

The "Femputer" from Amazon Women?

You win this round with that answer.

Guest voice clue probably made it too easy.

I like it quiet here in PEEL.
If there were tons of members here, there would be tons of incompetent spammers and idiots. Spamming is a problem already.

Quality over quantity, Durin.

Plus, I hope there is a new GTC question up soon from Giladcs.

It's not that we want there to only be a few posters, it's that we don't want the place to devolve into a massive wasteland of posts that require zero mental engagement to generate or to understand and appreciate.

In the (near) future universe of Ender's Game, Orson Scott Card had a vision of the internet as an important place, where intelligent people would discuss things using clear, intelligent posts. Those who had something somewhat interesting to say would be encouraged and paid attention to on worthwhile websites. Those who were basically background noise would not.

Let's consider the actions of the staff here to be in that general spirit. Don't write a post because you feel like posting. Write a post that you think intelligent people might actually be interested in reading.

In the case of this thread, there are rules in place that require participants to make their guesses based on at least a little thought and knowledge of Futurama. We ENJOY it when people actually discuss the show and the characters, rather than spew one-word posts out of their internet-holes like simpletons with internet-diarrhea.

In short - people are welcome to post in this thread and on many other parts of PEEL if they are capable of shaping and sharing coherent thoughts that might generate meaningful discussion.

[Reply #177 on:]

Lucy Liu actually does appear in season 7. She's at Bender's funeral in "Forty Percent Leadbelly"

[Reply #178 on:]

UnrealLegend is technically correct; it is not Lucy Liu.

I'll wait a bit to see if anyone else has a guess, then post another clue.

[Reply #179 on:]

"technically correct"?... I'm just going to make a guess for the game to progress..

Morgan Proctor
1. As far as we know
2. Nora Dunn (although apparantly by Tress in TBwaBB)
3. Doing the dirty Fry
4. Nope, only the aforementioned movie and 2ACV11

[Reply #180 on:]

3. Has a connection with one of the main characters
