The BEST Robot in Futurama (POLL)

[Reply #200 on:]

It was, only a sprayed on color...


And to think that it was decided by the flip of a coin! 

[Reply #201 on:]

It was his finish. Regular Bender is fog hat grey.

"There but for a flip of a coin go we."

[Reply #202 on:]

First me, then TMC, and then Tachyon! What is it with this page? I say Randi cursed it when she added Bender to the poll!...

That...makes a lot of sense actually. I just saw the posts from the first thread and wondered why there wasn't a Bender option...like you guys, I choose to look into things afterwards

I like Hedonism Bot. We need to add him on there

I believe, if I'm correct, I allowed for a "change vote" rule. So if you want you can either replace Bender's option with another choice and let it work itself out, or just keep him there and keep adding robots since we can go to 20 now. I'm leaving this up to you, threadmaker!

[Reply #203 on:]

That's most cloolsome that we now have 20 options to play with, huzzah! I didn't expect to get more poll options added to Peel, let alone that quickly! Thanx [-mArc-]!...

I think I'll keep Bender in the running, just in case anyone else comes in asking where Bender is ...

As for the rest, I have taken the liberty of adding more robots to the poll to make use of the 20 poll options we now have. I've added Hedonism Bot by popular demand as he's become quite a regular now, despite not coming into the show until Season 4...

I thought it was important to add all of the Robot Mafia seeing as they're all well known recurring secondary characters. Hell, Clamps even has an episode named after him! Angleyne is there because the poll was lacking a Fembot. Fatbot is clool and got mentioned earlier on in this thread, as did iZac and iHawk, albeit some years ago...

I have left the "other" option where it is, partly because if I replace it with a robot then I'm guessing whatever robot I replace it with would end up with a load of unfair votes. I would have moved the "other" option to the end of the poll otherwise. I don't seem to be able to change the vote for that option? I couldn't fit on everyone's choices, but that option is still there for that reason. I did think about adding the Robo-Puppy, Femputer, Fender and a few others, but alas I have a soft spot for iZac and iHawk, and they got mentioned first!...

Randi, can people change their vote if they wish? For example if they voted for "other" and now the Robot they wanted to vote for is on the poll?...

[Reply #204 on:]

We should be allowed to change our votes.

[Reply #205 on:]

I'd like to think it's possible without resetting them all. Losing 153 votes, many of which are from Peeler's who've been inactive for years and are unlikely to come back would be a big shame. I hope it's possible, but I don't see the option right now ...

[Reply #206 on:]

All hail Femputer!

[Reply #207 on:]

I voted for [singing] Calculon, Calculo-on, Calculo-o-o-o-n! [/singing]
He's so over the top arrogant, you can't help but love him.

[Reply #208 on:]

I like him as well; despite being a big idiot Hollywood dumb guy what does that sorta ting.

[Reply #209 on:]

ROBOT DEVIL

[Reply #210 on:]

Crazy Roberto, hilarious.
Also Robot priest.

[Reply #211 on:]

Robot Santa and bender, I voted Robot Santa to boost his votes!

[Reply #212 on:]

I voted for the Robot Devil, but I do love poor Tinny Tim. "You've raised my hopes and dashed them expertly!" There might be a "sir" in there, but I forget.

[Reply #213 on:]

I have no idea even what, or who, Beelzebot is.

[Reply #214 on:]

CGEF knows.

Anybody with a working knowledge of Futurama should be able to tell you as well. It's fairly obvious. I'm going to assume therefore that you are being obtuse for your own amusement, and leave you to follow the link rather than simply telling you.

[Reply #215 on:]

I have no idea even what, or who, Beelzebot is.

We hold the answer to that to be self-evident.

[Reply #216 on:]

Bender would be upset at the poll results right now.

[Reply #217 on:]

Well, to be honest, Bender is great but I tend to take him for granted to a degree.  Then when I see a robot who has little screen time but makes great use of that time, it sticks out to me.  Even though I know that it would be extremely difficult for NewBot to maintain a consistently superb performance.

In other words, Bender is awesome - consistently so.  But when another  great robot character makes an appearance it draws my attention and makes a lingering impression.

Beelzebot ftw!

[Reply #218 on:]

I had to go with Beelizebot, which I know makes me unoriginal and such. But he's excellent. I know some people thought he was getting a little overused by the end of Season 6 but I disagree. I wouldn't want him to be used a whole lot more, granted, but the current amount is great.

And I mean, Devil's Hands. C'mon. That's insurmountable.

[Reply #219 on:]

I refuse to call him Beelzebot. That would be like calling Leela "big boots" every episode. 

[Reply #220 on:]

I think more like calling Zoidberg "John" but I get where you're coming from.
