And the winner of 'Futurama Trivia Champion VI' is MrMoose! Congratulations on winning the sixth game of this series, and the first game that used rounds! You can now include yourself on the elite list of 'Futurama Trivia' champions. Now you know you either know your Futurama really well, or you simply had lots of free time. In any case, once again, congratulations.

*****Now, I don't know when the seventh game will start, but it won't be before June 16, 2005. But when it does, I'll start it in this thread. (You'll probably know a new game started, becuase I expect this thread to go down, and when I bump it, you'll see it again on the first page.)*****

So good game everyone. I hope to see you in the seventh game!

[Also, I know I screwed up the final scores for Harry Sach and Leela In Chains, but it doesn't make much of a difference, since your scores were too low.]

[Reply #487 on:]

congrats to Mr.Moose!oh crap i forgot to send several answers too! DAMB!
[edit]hey, 10th!not bad for an English kid.

comming soon in august

[Reply #488 on:]

AHHHHH... 2nd... not bad for a first time player

[Reply #489 on:]

Yeah....a lot of free time did help me win, but that won't be the case during the next round because I am probably be really busy this summer and I doubt I will even post very much at all. But any way, GO ME!....and now I take my leave until....well....probably several months from now.

[Reply #490 on:]

Well, congrats to MrMoose. 5th place isn't so bad for me. I'll try to do better next time.

[Reply #491 on:]

This will also probably be my last post in this thread, but (assuming anyone who played reads this) what did you guys think of this game? What could I do to improve it? (Besides consistently updating. I know I screwed up on that point during this game.)

[Reply #492 on:]

good... not the game, but i liked ur avy better before

[Reply #493 on:]

Ditto, Cujoe. The Robot Devil looks weird in that particular avatar...remaaaaarkable!

I liked the game, but it was tougher for me with the time zone differences. Hey, that's life. At least I made it to the top ten...I'm happy.

[Reply #494 on:]

This game confused me at first but now I'm used to it, like my underware.

Yeeeeeesss, check it out, 4th place again that makes 5 out of 6 games that I came 4th.

Yaaaaaaaaaaaaayyyyy!!!!!!!!!

[Reply #495 on:]

I liked it. It wasn't as good, to me, as the last thread. I didn't like the time zone differences and thought the game went by pretty fast. A suggestion for next time is to space out the questions a little more.

[Reply #496 on:]

see ya June 16th guys!

[Reply #497 on:]

BUMP IT UP!
June 16th has gone past us so what's happening now?

[Reply #498 on:]

Yeah I was kinda wondering the same thing??  Eyedol Where are you?!

This is the bit I don't understand... Where in that did Eyedol guarantee that he would definately do one soon after June 16th?

What he did say however is that the next game will be some time after June 16th and that he doesn't know when.

So just wait patiently, and by the time you've given up hope it'll start again.

Of course I could be totally wrong. I just like complaining about everything. Damn Wizards...

[Reply #500 on:]

Yay, the 500th post in this thread!

I'm busy doing AP English Literature homework, so I don't have time to watch any 'Futurama' episodes and/or commentary. (So I can make up good questions, because the last time I did a FTC game by coming up with questions on the spot, it wasn't that good.)

Hell, I didn't know anyone would want to play this game again. I thought most (if not all) of you would forget about this.

I should be done reading "A Midsummer Night's Dream" and answering the questions by July 8, 2005. But then I might go to Las Vegas on the last week of July. Then I have to spend one or two weeks watching 'Futurama'. But then I have to go to school late-August to help out freshmen, since I'm part of this freshmen transition to high school program. (And for my own registration.) Then during the school year I'll be busy with my AP classes.

So a probable start date for FTC VII would be on or around August 2, 2005. These games (at least the last one) took around one or two weeks to finish. (I'm not too sure on that point.) This should go quicker, since I won't have school. Yeah... So mark your calendars, since FTC VII should start around August 2, 2005. (But I'm not guranteeing anything. That's just a probable start date.) But if everything goes well, it should start around that time.

In the meanwhile, brush up on your 'Futurama' trivia, and play some of the (I'm jealous, but it's true.) more popular games in the General Disscussion forum.

[Reply #501 on:]

Compleatly understandable.

It won't affect me, as I am now working again and my boss is a real champ, dosen't care if I use the net for personal use.

Anyway see you maybe someetime August. : )

[Reply #502 on:]

wait, wait, wait, wait, Is Mr.Eyedol7513 or Mr.MrMoose gonna do it?

[Reply #503 on:]

I'll do it, if my schedule is free.

[Reply #504 on:]

-Many apologizes for the double-post, but I have to bump this up one last time.
-I am not going to be doing a 'Futurama Trivia Champion VII' game. My school year is going to be busy, and I don't want to have any obligations during the summer. Plus, I'm bored of 'Futurama', and I'm currently taking a break from it, so that boredom doesn't become permanent. So I don't want to force myelf to watch any episodes.
-So, this is the official end of the FTC "franchise". It was fun while it lasted.
-If anyone wants to take over, go ahead. Do whatever you want to it. (I doubt anyone will take over though, since it is kind of bnoring to be in charge. It's obviously more fun to participate.) If by any chance any of you take over, just remember I reserve the right to take over again at any time I want. (But I won't interrupt a game in progress. If I do want to take over again, it will be after a game has ended, and a new champion is "crowned".)

[Reply #505 on:]

Ill take over when everyone is ready.

[Reply #506 on:]

^Set a date. Put in in your signature and advertise like hell. (Obviously, don't spam or break any rules while you do this.)

-Just put "Futurama Trivia Champion VII" FIRST in every post you make related to the game. If you post again, but it is NOT updating the game in any way, then DON'T put it first.

Other than that, good luck. I suggest the start date be in one or two weeks. I'll be there. I may not have time to run the game, but I do have time to participate.

Please don't bring this game to hell. Try to follow the format I did for "FTC VI". Other than that, good luck. (Don't be surprised or anything if you get small [or no] responses.)

Especially since you're a newer PEELer. I'll play this time, I just hope that nye's time zone is closer to mine than Eyedol's was. Last game, I couldn't answer any questions because the rounds started at 8pm Pacific and I live in Maryland and that's 11pm over here, and in England it's 4am. I hope you have an answer to the time zone issues.

[Reply #508 on:]

i_c_weiner: Not necessarily. When I first started this game, I had alot of responses. I think that "FTC VI" had a record for most responses to a single question. dr.bender nye isn't exactly a newbie or anything, judging by his rank. As long as he keeps everything the same (and the quality of the questions don't suck) then "FTC VII" should be OK. But as you said, it depends on the time zones.

[Reply #509 on:]

Ah, the time zones..wretched things. 

[Reply #510 on:]

Ive settled the day and it is on Monday 29th of August. If you think it should be done on a different day, E-Mail me nyedaniel@yahoo.co.uk.

[Reply #511 on:]

IF YOU READ THIS:

-The start time is too late. By that time, it will almost be the beginning of school. (At least for me.)
-But, that date is only bad for me. It might be OK for others. Regardless, I'll try to be here.

[Reply #512 on:]

Too late for me as well, with school starting for me at that time. How about have it start one to three weeks from now? The 10 or 17 would be nice. I'd rather it be before August, and it must be before September.

[Reply #513 on:]

i_c_weiner: I couldn't have said it any better. School starts for me September 7. Plus, I have other school-related activities going on in late-August.

How about July 11, July 18, July 25, or even August 1? These games take roughly three weeks to finish, so that should be enough time. (Plus, it should give you enough time to create questions.)

Again, I suggest not trying to create questions on the spot. It may or may not work out. (But it's up to you.)

[Reply #514 on:]

Hows August 6th? Im away to Italy for the week soon in August or should i start earlyer and someone else makes Questions for a week?

[Reply #515 on:]

Start earlier. I have homework (Yes, homework.) to do, plus I might go to Las Vegas on the last week in July. (Although I will probably still have access to a computer, so that's not such a problem for me.)
So you're going to Italy in August? If you start the game in one or two weeks, you can take a break for that one week in August that you'll be gone.
Better yet, if you have AOL IM, IM me. (I don't want to clutter up this topic with semi-unrelated conversation.) The best time to contact me would be after 4:00p.m.[pst].

[Reply #516 on:]

okay July 16 should do. Time for me to sort out questions.

[Reply #517 on:]

Damn I hate to keep bumping this up, but use my old rules. (And set reasonable times.) Oh yeah, and don't make it more than three questions per day. If you post more than that, it gets unfair for the people who can't be online much. (The time limits interfere and everything.)

[Reply #518 on:]

2:00 for new question, a question a day, everyday from Sunday September 4th(48 Questions).

[Reply #519 on:]

what going on in this room?
