-Blank- Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 (edited) For me it has and will always be Makuta. That will never change. Edited October 16, 2011 by -Knight Rider2000- Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Erebus Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 You might want to edit the poll because the name is Teridax, not Terdiax. I voted Teridax now that the Makuta is known to be a collective group/species of beings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Valyou Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 (edited) Teridax just stuck for me, and using Makuta is kinda confusing with it referring to the species AND the main Makuta himself.

Harvali Posted October 16, 2011 Share Posted October 16, 2011 I have to say Teridax, once the Makutas became a species it didn't make sense. It would be like parents naming their child "Human," or a canine companion "dog," it just gets confusing and it kind of makes the character seem generic.

Master Inika Posted October 17, 2011 Share Posted October 17, 2011 Overall, Teridax. I understand the nostalgia, but it gets confusing, like with the Brotherhood of Makuta. Is it the Brotherhood of the Makuta species, or the Brotherhood of Teridax? I now know it's the species. Quote "You are an absolute in these uncertain times.

TNTOS Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 I nulled because I like both names equally. -TNTOS- Quote "It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat." - Theodore RooseveltA Writerly BlogThe Tasty Library of Sugary Goodness(My Little BIONICLE: Friendship is Explosive Completed 01/05/14){The Shika Trilogy Omnibus Completed 03/31/14) (Review Topic)(In the End Completed 09/01/14) (Review Topic)The Biological Chronicle: (2001) (2002) (2003) (2004) (2005) (2006) (2007) (2008) (2009) (2010) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zarohum Posted October 22, 2011 Share Posted October 22, 2011 Makuta. It just fits his character more. Maybe the Makuta species as a whole should've been called Teridax, but Makuta to me always will be Makuta, and not for the sole reason that Teridax sounds awful.

That Matoran with a Vahi Posted October 29, 2011 Share Posted October 29, 2011 As a name in and of itself, I think 'Makuta' sounds better, but in relation to the character, Teridax seems much more appropriate for him, so I null-voted.

Toa of Nerds Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 Makuta forever. For me, Teridax sounds like some dinosaur, not the former ruler of the entire MU. Personally, I think they should have thought of a new name for the species instead of thinking up a new name for Makuta. But I guess Teridax is better than the forever awkward "Makuta of Metru Nui".-don't touch my pocket protector Quote Three great comedies at one low, low price....NOTHING!

Taipu1 Posted November 6, 2011 Share Posted November 6, 2011 at the end of the day, I don't know why they can't be one and the same, I voted Teridax because that's his name and I'm cool with that. In the early days it was quite awesome the way he was 'the Makuta' and the unseen enemy. When he came into the open, and we saw his actual form, he kind of became a new character, and the new name was rather befitting...
