Name That Robot
 
Up to date with your fictional robots? (And Dave Lavery's other car?)

Try the "Name that Robot" game at http://www.oneplusyou.com/q/v/robot

And just ignore the "sign me up" screen at the end... there is a "take me to my score" link in the bottom right corner.

Jason

P.S. I did rather poorly, I'm afraid... I only got 56%, but my wife scored 69%! Guess she can take over as mentor next year...

Perhaps someone should start a game on these boards where at a certain date and time, on regular intervals, a picture of a robot is posted, first one to get the team right gets a point.

That was the depiction of Marvin the Paranoid Android from the 2005 Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy film.

50%. Man, I've gotta study up. Some of them were really puzzling, though!

Someone should make up a quiz like like this taking Team logos and have you pick the right team number.

I feel ashamed even posting this.........19%..........its pitiful.

This would definitely be a fun game to play, except that some logos have the team number in them, and mostly every robot has its team number/logo on it so you'd have to blur them.

Re: Name That Robot
 
63%. I'll admit, beyond the obviously popular ones, I was guessing.

70%

Recognized all the non-humaniod ones.

I don't know what that floating silver thing was though...

whitetiger0990 07-09-2008 00:39

Re: Name That Robot
 
94%. Didn't know what the floaty silver one was either. It's apparently this *shrugs*

There wasn't a Gort! or that one from Westworld! Or Robby! Or Bender! So many classics were missing.. =(

Protronie 07-09-2008 00:46

Re: Name That Robot
 
Wow 69% ... guess I watch too much TV.

Of course HAL and the Borg are not robots.

-p:cool:

Steve W 07-09-2008 07:33

38% - need to watch more TV.

Wayne Doenges 07-09-2008 09:38

I got a 94%. I had a problem with the cartoons :(
I need to get out more :D

Had a little trouble on the older robots. Though glad to see Johnny 5 in the mix.

Welll.... Do I have the quiz for you!!!


Now, bear in mind that its relitively easy, and that I did some photoshopping (well... hardly, it was in paint...) so that the numbers didn't exist.


And this made me realize that team logos aren't easy to get a hold of.

Take the test
here.

Andrew Schreiber 07-09-2008 17:35

Re: Name That Robot
 
75% and considering that I don't watch tv all that much... I guess my wikipedia romps did teach me something. Now I need to find a way of making it pay for college :(

Anna B. 07-09-2008 18:14

I got an 88%, mostly guessing though :p

gorrilla 07-09-2008 19:18

Re: Name That Robot

7/10 oh well at least I didn't cheat

tim_reiher 07-09-2008 20:15

Re: Name That Robot
 
9/10 on the second quiz. Well, I definitely did a lot better on that one! I thought most of them were pretty easy, though (based on the merit that each of those is probably at least one person's avatar on this site...).

Now that's more like it!
10/10, guessed on one of them and got lucky. :D

EricH 07-09-2008 20:39

Re: Name That Robot
 
10/10 on that; no guessing here. No West Coast teams only made it marginally harder.

Rosiebotboss 07-09-2008 20:41

Re: Name That Robot
 
I failed miserably.........56%.

But I did get Rosie right!! (I better had!)

Madison 07-09-2008 21:50

Re: Name That Robot
 
94% -- and probably because I haven't seen nor read Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. I am otherwise a raging nerd.

10/10 on the FIRST quiz. See above.

JVN 07-09-2008 22:32

Re: Name That Robot
 
I'm kind of embarrassed to say I got a 100%, fairly easily.

Dan Richardson 07-09-2008 22:56

Re: Name That Robot
 
63% and 7/10 Sad :-(

I really need to pick it up in the nerd department if I ever want to get a job lol.

Carlee10 07-09-2008 23:19

Re: Name That Robot
 
I got a 6/10 on the logo quiz.... on some of the questions my "dyslexia" kicked in.

But Hal was simply an auto control for the ship (Discovery)
The ship could be operated with Hal shut down and unplugged.

Using your logic you could say some cars are robots cause they can control their speed and park themselfs.

Oh and I think Hal would be insulted being called a supercomputer.. he was the super of supercomputers. After all the HAL 9000 seris have never made a error... except for that one time... :p

Oh on the FIRSTquiz.... well. I knew some of the teams.... but their numbers.... 1/10 I'm so ashamed!
And I don't even know which I got right for sure!
-p :cool:

Qbranch 08-09-2008 00:53

69 percent...

Wow I miss the old Battlestar just because people don't get to see how shiney the old Cylons were...

And this made me want to watch flight of the navigator again... "I do not leak, you leak."...

Cool!

DMetalKong 08-09-2008 17:36

Re: Name That Robot
 
Once I saw that the score was passed over GET, i just couldn't resist ;)



Anyway, 88%.

IKE 09-09-2008 14:24

Re: Name That Robot
 
9/10 on the FIRST quiz. Sad since I am from the Midwest. I did get the 1st one right!:)
