Default PlanetTR and Destination Games Present: Name That Earth Bot Contest!

Xenet 71.43.1 System Msg

TTY34145 11.10.10



Human survivors on Earth have been fighting against the Bane to hold back the tide of destruction. Unfortunately, intense casualties have made it harder to rally the numbers necessary to fight back, forcing them to look for new military solutions.

In response, humanity has assembled a robotic fighting force out of the scrap, junk, and rusted remains of civilization. Although these robots are neither reliable nor especially powerful, they can be created quickly, cheaply, and in large numbers for military action against the Bane.

The humans have grown fond of their robotic allies, but openly acknowledge they are rusted pieces of junk.

Below are images transmitted about these robots that have been built.





##End Transmission##


Members of PlanetTR, your job is to now name this robot!

Please keep the following in mind when thinking of your submission!

The survivors of Earth would name this robot much the same way that people in the military refer to vehicles and equipment with affectionate, semi-derogatory slang.

Post your submissions in this thread by 8pm CST Sunday November 2nd!


Please limit it to one submission per person.


Once all of the submissions have been compiled, voting will open.

To vote, send a PM to Andriss with the corresponding number and suggested name!


The winning name will be applied to this mob in game when the AFS returns Earth in D15!

Guys? A reminder, only one submission per player. Any more than one will be disregarded and only the first used, Blood I'd seriously consider re-editing your current submission in that light.

Because it's such a challenge. There's such a strong will to resist me. I mean some of them pretend I don't even exist for them. So I wait patiently for time to pass. Usually they give in and embrace me.
Soldier: Unless there's a war or a plague or something.
Exactly. Still I feel heartbroken taking away the young ones. I mean, they make such beautiful plans for their lives you know? They're always asking me, who gets to decide who stays longer and who has to go, but... that's not my business.
Soldier: Wow... touching. You're not the heartless ***** I thought you were.

The X-84 "Steel Golem"

It just screams Golem and prompts the battle cry "SEND IN THE GOLEM's"

My suggestion, the Rotteweiler.

Reason being, it looks mean, it looks nasty, and it looks like it came from a junkyard.
