Talk:General Buzz Grunt

aprI added some information I noted from in game when I opened the game for the first time. Apparently, Buzz actually has a good relationship with a lot of his "enemies." The information kind of changed my interpretation of Buzz's character. However, the article doesn't read as smoothly as it used to... Any suggestions for improving it? 75.62.152.29 19:34, December 19, 2009 (UTC) I cut this line:

While unconfirmed, General Buzz Grunt is probably based onCoach Bradley Buzzcut from MTV's Beavis and Butt-Head.

Both characters are based on a very common drill sergeant stereotype and their names both reference a military-style haircut, but they have nothing else in common. Examples of dozens of characters like this are listed here: http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/DrillSergeantNasty. It's much more likely that Buzz was meant to be an archetypical character in that mold.

Body skill points
I looked at PT9 Smith's and General Buzz Grunt's Career Panels and found this

PT9's Body skill point level: 0 Body skill points

General Buzz Grunt's Body skill point level: 10 Body skill points

How on earth did PT9 win? 75.71.219.35 (talk) 01:24, November 8, 2013 (UTC)

They would have had the fight before Buzz reached maximum body skill. PT9 could've still beaten Buzz while the latter had nine body skills. The reason I know is because in my game Tybalt lost a fight with Mercutio. Tybalt had ten body points and Mercutio had one. Therefore the scale was 95 / 05 to Tybalt.C.Syde65 (talk) 10:29, December 11, 2013 (UTC)


 * Also, I heard something about who starts the fight, wins the fight. Although it may be the opposite. Joey.eyeball (talk) 03:32, January 12, 2014 (UTC)


 * What would the scale be for seven against zero, assuming Buzz had just enough points for the job his memories indicate he had? Dharden (talk) 21:51, April 9, 2014 (UTC)

I never took Buzz seriously. For one thing he looks about 20 when he'd be something like 44. And for another - he has a soft and somewhat high Voice provided by Stephen Kearin. C.Syde65 (talk) 03:36, January 12, 2014 (UTC)


 * I'd say he looks somewhere around 35. And he does look a lot more kind-hearted with his appearance. Joey.eyeball (talk) 03:40, January 12, 2014 (UTC)

I consider him to be somewhere around 44 because that's how many Sim days old he is, even though the lifespans and ages of Sims in the Sims 2 differ greatly from people. Here is my perspectives based on the number days in each life stage a Sim lives.

Name
So, the article is named "General Buzz Grunt" because his in-game name is the same. But, "General" is very obviously his rank, and is included in his name only because there is no option to allow titles in The Sims 2 (or any other Sim game). But really, his name isn't "General Buzz", it's "Buzz." To that end, I think we should rename this page to just Buzz Grunt (and leave General Buzz Grunt as a redirect). --  LostInRiverview talk • blog  •  contribs 03:55, October 31, 2014 (UTC)
