Who's the badest of the bad, bad guys...Cylons or Borg?

What would happen if the two met up, who would left standing at the end of the day?

Definitely the Borg. With the Shadows from Babylon 5 running a close second. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> "2012.. Year of the Dragon!! Get on the Dragon Wagon!". </div>

Darleks of cybermen, darleks or cybermen, have to go with the darleks plus they make damn good plumbers. <img src="/images/icons/smile.gif" />

Species 8246 (or what ever the hell it was) would have womped (and eaten) the Borg's butts if Janeway hadn't interfered. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> TPTB went to Dallas and all I got was Plucked !!So many people, so few recipes !!Let's clean up this stinkhole !! </div>

you all seem to have overlooked the one species thats so deadly it whups all of em to a smooth creamy paste with utter contempt and then throws the makings away, a species so deadly they could destroy whole planets before they discovered interstellar travel, yes, HUMANS, every other species like Aliens, Predators, Borg, Daleks, Shadows, species 00001 thro to 999999 and any other supposed badasses, they all cringe before that lethal tiny pink hairless ape from EARTH.

I'm going to have to show my Trek cred beats you lot. It was species 8472, the worst invention by any star trek writer ever. Oh and borg beats Cylons hands down. They have shields ,directed energy weapons, transporters and the ability to repair themselves faster than the cylons have shown themselves able to. Oh and they can travel faster too although the cylons jump so could win a sprint but would run out of fuel easily.

Give Sauron the Ring and turn him loose on the Borg . . . . <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> TPTB went to Dallas and all I got was Plucked !!So many people, so few recipes !!Let's clean up this stinkhole !! </div>

"..... they all cringe before that lethal tiny pink hairless ape from EARTH." ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Psssssssst...its the 21st century. Were not all pink! (And as I travel further and further into middle-agehood I would start to dispute the "hairless" as well...everywhere but the head of course!)

steampower · Apr 5, 2006

I`m pretty sure most people are at least pink on the inside, I actualy chose the colour for the emotional contrast, pink being associated with young girls and babys (and hence vulnerability/weakness/innocence etc), I was just trying to say the realy deadly creature isn`t big and slimey with a dead black exoskeleton and acid blood, its small, pink and fluffy (in places), maybe thats a lesson for us when we finaly reach the stars, DON`T LET THE CUTE TEDDYBEARS ON THE STARSHIP!!!! steampower.

sure, cylons have religion...but he borg are borderline ********. They adapt, great, sure, and they can do so fast...but some of thier persistant behaviors are just irritatingly stupid. I can walk around a borg cube all day, so long as I don't look threatening? The zombie walk of doom for their primary bording strategy? I prefer cylons thank you. Much more creative, and do a lot with their "limited" resources (compared to borg). <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> --------------------SaiphMOD@gmail.com -------------------"This is my Timey Wimey Detector.

chriscdc · Apr 9, 2006

Not really a Zombie walk of doom though. First few drones get killed then they adapt, they then suffer zero loses. Sure you can walk around a cube all day but you will starve or die of thirst soon. Also you will fail in hand to hand combat with the first drone so your not much or a threat.

If you go cruising around space in a giant rubiks cube, you gotta be one tough hombre.

Are all McDonalds restaurant staff the HamBorg? <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> </div>

nag622 · Apr 12, 2006

I dunno about the McDonalds where you live, but the employees of the McDonalds around here seem to have the personality of a borg.

Saiph · Apr 13, 2006

which one would win in a fight...is a conditional question. As presented in the shows: Borg. Agreed. They've got the up on technology and resources. Given equal tech, and resources, I'm leaning towards Cylons, for the same reason that the Federation manages it's "victories" against the borg: Ingenuity. Given similar tech and resources the cylons are probably going to come up with a winning strategy against the borgs Juggernaut approach. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> --------------------SaiphMOD@gmail.com -------------------"This is my Timey Wimey Detector.

darth_elmo · Apr 16, 2006

Janeway wasn't one of the options. In the first place, she's not cybernetic. (I am willing to make allowances for Voyager's EMH to be entered for consideration...) In the second place, she's neither Cylon nor Borg--though in personality she actually has less than the Borg Hive Queen... BTW--wiping out trillions of any species qualifies one as a genocidal maniac. Regardless of whether Starfleet promotes you to Admiral or not.

SpaceKiwi · Apr 16, 2006

<blockquote>In reply to:<hr />I dunno about the McDonalds where you live, but the employees of the McDonalds around here seem to have the personality of a borg.<hr /></blockquote> Agreed. However we know them not to, in fact, be Borg by their complete lack of organisational skills in the timely massed-production of food. At least, if you take the "Park-Thru" at my local branch as evidence. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> Who is this superhero?

You must not have visited my McD's when I was on duty...that grill ran like a well oiled machine. Granted...the service section wasn't always the best. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> --------------------SaiphMOD@gmail.com -------------------"This is my Timey Wimey Detector.

darth_elmo · Apr 21, 2006

So...who was 'interfacing' with the grill that day??

Saiph · Apr 22, 2006

that would be me, I had assimilated the entire kitchen staff and would run as a hive mind for the duration of my shift. A manager once said, my grill was a study in organized chaos, I said it was strong emphasis on personal initiative and prioritization of tasks. Or there was the time I burned myself enough on the grill itself to get my hand stuck to it for a few moments...that hurt. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> --------------------SaiphMOD@gmail.com -------------------"This is my Timey Wimey Detector.

Well, yeah... but isn't she stunning in tight-fitting uniforms? <img src="/images/icons/wink.gif" /> <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> Just tell the truth and let the chips fall... </div>

lampblack · Apr 22, 2006

And I vote for Cylons. As Janeway demonstrated, the Borg are invincible -- unless one figures out how to take out the queen. Then it's "Katie bar the door, the center cannot hold!" I'd bet on the Cylons figuring out a way to do it. <div class="Discussion_UserSignature"> Just tell the truth and let the chips fall... </div>

darth_elmo · Apr 23, 2006

Umm...'no' to the tight uniform question. And 'yes' to the Cylons taking out the Borg. (Well, the current Cylon incarnation... Lucifer and his tin cans wouldn't make the fight last a centon...)
