Futurama Trivia Champion (game)

[Reply #80 on:]

Let's see if this actually works...

3

Come to think of it, by now it's a question of .5 points vs. zero, so I don't really care.

[Reply #81 on:]

1.)Guy Caballero = [26]pts.
2.)Nerd-o-rama = [24]pts.
3.)Jicannon = [19.5]pts.
4.)hobojobo = [5]pts.
5.)laroquettespine = [4.5]pts.


Q12: How many character commentaries are there?
A: 0.

*SORRY laroquettespine, BUT WITH 4.5pts., YOU ARE ELIMINATED FROM Futurama Trivia Champion I.*

::Now to address the question. Billy West and John DiMaggio were the only voice actors to sustain their character's voice throughout an episode. But once a voice actor breaks out, and talks normally, the illusion is broken, and they stopped doing character commentary. Billy West was the only one to never break it, with Zoidberg and Fry.

A character commentary is any movie, television series, etc.., in which ONLY voice actors REMAIN IN CHARACTER THROUGHOUT THE FEATURE, WITHOUT BREAKING IT.
A character commentator is any voice actor who does a commentary in character, WHILE other people talk normally. (They can break it if they want to.)
If you've ever heard King of the Hill commentaries, for a few episodes, some voice actors sustained the character's voice throughout the entire commentary, and acted as if they were real people. (ex. Peggy says FOX wanted Hank to do a nude scene, but Hank refused. That obviously isn't true, since the characters do not exist. But since it's voice actors doing a character commentary in character, then they can say whatever.)
I know this sounds complicated, but that's how it is.::


[<*UPDATE*:
+Round 2 of 'Futurama Trivia Champion' will start on 10/27/2004 at (4:00p.m. Pacific Standard Time).

[Reply #82 on:]

If I had known your definition of it, I would have put 0. Spinal Tap has a GREAT character commentary.

+Everyone, please remember the time Round 2 will start.

[Reply #84 on:]

Hey, if anyone makes pervious posts, it'll be I.

Well, it's been fun.  I would only suggest that future competitions are a little more...scheduled.  I'm only on the computer for about seven hours a day, five days a week, and, as much as I'd like to spend it all at PEEL, I can't.  For any future competitions, I'd like to see the competitors' schedules taken into consideration to "fair things up" all around.

Otherwise, good job Eyedol.

[Reply #85 on:]

Okay...well...cool.  I guess I got it right the first time.  Not that it matters, since we're resetting the score...oh well.  I win.

[Reply #86 on:]

No, NoR. I win 

[Reply #87 on:]

Is there any possibility that you could post the new question at 5 rather than four? I'm going to a cross-country running race until five, and I don't want to be left out.

*No problem. But I won't reset the time anymore. NEW START TIME IS 5:00p.m. PACIFIC STANDARD TIME.*

*And yes, I agree the scheduling of questions is not that great. But I originally posted a new question every other even hour from 4:00p.m.-10:00p.m. But barely anybody answered. I'll try to make a better formatted schedule for the next Futurama Trivia Champion game. (But no solid promises.)*

+Q2: What character does not appear in Futurama: The Game?+

[Reply #93 on:]

That was less than two hours man.  I don't think all of us check PEEL that often.

Anyway, this is a guess since I don't have the game, but given that the show's writers also wrote the game, they probably left out Amy Wong, the co-ed-hating bastards.

[Reply #94 on:]

I'll guess...

Hermes

[Reply #95 on:]

Yeah, what he said... whats his name, Hermes

[Reply #96 on:]

Neither Amy or Hermes were in the game. Do I get bonus points?

[Reply #97 on:]

Benderboy, this game is only for the five of us that already signed up.

Anyway, it's Amy.

[Reply #98 on:]

Q1: What character does not appear in Futurama: The Game?
A: Amy Wong.

1.)Nerd-o-rama = [8]pts.
2.)Guy Caballero = [6]pts.
3.)hobojobo = [2]pts.
4.)Jicannon =

• pts.

*Leela, Fry, Bender, Professor, Zoidberg, and Hermes appear in the game. (Hermes was in the Planet Express Level, in his office, and had a Brain Slug.) Amy never appeared, or was ever mentioned in the game as far as I know.*

+Q3: Something happens to Nibbler twice in <The Sting>. What happens to him?+

[Reply #99 on:]

He gets knocked off the bed when Leela wakes up

[Reply #100 on:]

Dammit man, it may be midnight in Long Beach, but some of us live in a decent, God-fearing time zone where it's two in the morning and we have an 8am class.  But since I'm up anyway...

...he's knocked off the bed as Leela wakes up.

Also, I just noticed GC lives in the same time zone as me.  Hell, less than 100 miles from me.  My point remains valid, since I don't think he's in college.

[Reply #101 on:]

*The time differences do suck, but it's too late to make a schedule. (As I said before, when I start Futurama Trivia Champion II, I'll ask all the signed up players what times will be convenient for them, and make up a schedule.)
When it gets down to 2 players, then I'll have to ask both of them what times they can be on, so each will have an equal amount of time to answer. (If your computer is slow, oh well. I can't do anything about that.*

+SEE PRVIOUS POST FOR NEW QUESTION.+

[Reply #102 on:]

I do go to college, and I have a job. I also have insomnia. Awake from 9am to 4am.

[Reply #103 on:]

Yeah, well...I'm lazier than you. Seriously, I can;t function on under 6 hours/day of sleep for any extended period of time. [/off-topic]

[Reply #104 on:]

I usually go to sleep around 12:50a.m. (After watching Conan O'Brien.)

+PLEASE LOOK AT MY 2ND MOST RECENT POST FOR NEW QUESTION.+

[Reply #105 on:]

He gets knocked off the bed and goes flying.

EDIT: I know it's a bit late for this, but Hermes is in the game. He's in his office and has a brain slug on his head.

[Reply #106 on:]

Yeah, He gets knocked off the bed

  Curse me being so late!

I agree, Frank Welker.

 

Thank you, golf slave

[Reply #114 on:]

Frank Welker.

Damn post control. For some reason it said I was trying to post the same message twice.

[Reply #115 on:]

That happened to me earlier. I think that it's because your message was identical to another message on the page. It glitches up and thinks that you posted the same message twice.

[Reply #116 on:]

Uh...yeah, Frank Welker

congrats on Bending Unit btw
