Cid - "Golbez! I'll show you the great fireworks of Cid, the Master Engineer!" (Eliminated in Round 2)

And I guess you guys are wondering this big secret way that I'm now going to determine which participants are pitted against each other. Heck, you might have figured it out by now, since it can't be implemented until at least Round 2. Well, I really don't like seeing one totally dominate the other in a battle; just seems like a big waste of time to me. And I thought about a way to try and prevent such occurences, and have most of the fights be pretty equal in competition. Here's how I'm going to do it:
I will count up total votes that each winning quote has received. I will pit quotes that have very similar # of quotes against each other. If two or more quotes have the same amount, then I'll just see which one had the higher % of votes in the battle they won. So for example, if two quotes that each received 10 votes battled against one another, it would most likely be a very competitive battle. But if I stacked up two quotes, one getting 10 and the other getting several less than that, then it's far more likely to be another dominate victory. So hopefully this new method of choosing participants will make all the battles competitive.
First Battle of Round 2:
Rydia - "Stop it! No more! I've had enough! Tellah? Yang? and even Cid! We lost them all? All!"
vs.
Yang - "I cannot be resting while you're fighting! Count me in!"
Fight!
Going to vote for <B>Rydia</B> here, as this was a hard decision for me. Hopefully this new method proves useful.

Sorry, Merchant and Locke here. That Tellah quote is funny, but not funny enough for me to beat Merchant and Locke one.

Merchant, Locke - 6
Another surprising result for me. I surely thought that Tellah would win this round. But maybe being part of a classic game had something to do with it...
Next Battle:
Kefka - "This is sickening... You sound like chapters from a self-help
booklet! Prepare yourselves!
vs.
Ultros - "Don't tease the octopus, kids!"
Fight!
Oh wow, a very difficult choice for me to make. These are two great quotes, and this could have been a Finals matchup!

Ok guys, I have made a critical error. Turns out, that I used two quotes that were already up for battle in this round twice. I used the Merchant/Locke quote twice, as well as the Kefka quote about the self-help booklet. Since those two quotes already were eliminated or advanced, I conducted one battle too many, and must do another one to finally end this round. I'm surprised that one of you guys, or myself for that matter, didn't even notice it until now.
Final Battle of Round 2:
Tellah - "You spoony bard!"

Ultros - "Don't tease the octupus, kids!"

Hopefully my mistake didn't scare off some people. And it was pretty confusing for me at first as well, becuase it took me a little while to find out what I had done wrong. And with that, we are finally into the Quarter-Finals!
FFIV
Cecil - "I am just a Dark Knight, with no courage to disobey his majesty." (Eliminated in Quarter-Final #1)
Legend of FFIV - "One to be born from a dragon, hoisting the light and the dark, arises high up in the sky to the still land, veiling the moon with the light of eternity. It brings another promise ot mother earth with a bounty and mercy." (Eliminated in Quarter-Final #3)
<B>Rydia - "Stop it! No more! I've had enough! Tellah? Yang? and even Cid! We lost them all? All!"</B> (Advances to the Semi-Finals)
<B>Tellah - "You spoony bard!"</B> (Advanced to the Semi-Finals)
FFVI
Kefka - "Life... Dreams... Hope... Where did they come from? And
where are they headed? These things... I am going to destroy!" (Eliminated in Quarter-Final #4)
Kefka - "I'd say you're all charged up, boys and girls...or whatever...say, remind me to show you my Magicite collection someday! You might see a few familiar faces!!! Now for a little Magicite hocus-pocus...!" (Eliminated in Quarter-Final #2)
<B>Locke -"Edgar, Terra can use magic, and we can't. That's the only
difference between us. The fact is......we could use her help!"
Terra -"Thank you, Locke! Thank you, Edgar! ... ... Stop swooning...!"</B> (Advanced to the Semi-Finals)
<B>Merchant - "You're that thief, Locke, aren't you?"
Locke - "Hey! Call me treasure hunter, or I'll rip your lungs out!"</B> (Advanced to the Semi-Finals)
Well this is surely to be quite the competitive finish, with four remaining quotes from both games. Will we end up with a battle of both games? We will soon find out!
Quarter-Final #1
Cecil - "I am just a Dark Knight, with no courage to disobey his majesty."
vs.
Locke - "Edgar, Terra can use magic, and we can't. That's the only difference between us. The fact is......we could use her help!"
Terra -"Thank you, Locke! Thank you, Edgar! ... ... Stop swooning...!"
Fight!
Both of these quotes have received the same percentage of votes so far, but I'm going to start out by increasing it for <B>Cecil</B>.
Agent0042
07-03-2005, 04:12 AM
I think I like both about equally, so my love of FF6 wins out. Also, I think the FF6 one is one of my nominations, while the FF4 one isn't.
Locke - "Edgar, Terra can use magic, and we can't. That's the only difference between us. The fact is......we could use her help!"
Terra -"Thank you, Locke! Thank you, Edgar! ... ... Stop swooning...!"

Well, I'm sure glad that I wasn't the only one who voted for the Cecil quote. And that gives us our first Semi-Finalist.
Quarter-Final #2
Rydia - "Stop it! No more! I've had enough! Tellah? Yang? and even Cid! We lost them all? All!"
vs.
Kefka - "I'd say you're all charged up, boys and girls...or whatever...say, remind me to show you my Magicite collection someday! You might

Legend - 20/23 = 86.9%
Merchant/Locke - 17/19 = 89.4%
Well, I don't think we could have asked for a closer battle than this. A well deserved victory for Locke.

I thought for a second there that the evil villian was going to pull through with this one. But I was wrong. And with that, we are so close to determinming the quote champion!
Semi-Finals!
FFIV
Rydia - "Stop it! No more! I've had enough! Tellah? Yang? and even Cid! We lost them all? All!"
Tellah - "You spoony bard!"
FFVI
Locke -"Edgar, Terra can use magic, and we can't. That's the only
difference between us. The fact is......we could use her help!"
Terra -"Thank you, Locke! Thank you, Edgar! ... ... Stop swooning...!"
Merchant - "You're that thief, Locke, aren't you?"
Locke - "Hey! Call me treasure hunter, or I'll rip your lungs out!"
This is pretty interesting. Two quotes from each game. Usually, the Semi-Finals are dominated by one game, but not this time. Maybe we can have a FFIV vs. FFVI Finale!
Semi-Final #1
Rydia - "Stop it! No more! I've had enough! Tellah? Yang? and even Cid! We lost them all? All!"

Given that it seems Smokey is apparently good and gone, perhaps it's time we consider allowing somebody else to take over management of his rumbles if they want to? (Not me, though! I have quite enough on my plate.)
Sounds like a good idea, assuming there's someone out there who's willing and reasonably qualified.

Doesn't seem like there would need to be that many qualifications:

3. A functioning frontal lobe.
4. A pulse.

Um well I think we might as well at least just get this out of the road considering there are only two fights left. After that we can just sort out what happens. So...
Rydia- 5
Locke- 10
Well, it looks like Locke is on to the finals with this victory over Rydia but who's going to be goig up agianst Locke in the final battle...
Semi-Final #2
Tellah - "You spoony bard!"
VS
Merchant - "You're that thief, Locke, aren't you?"
Locke - "Hey! Call me treasure hunter, or I'll rip your lungs out!"
FIGHT!
I find the choice between these two quotes to be actually quite hard but I am going to have to go with Tellah with this one just because of a simple coin flip.

So it's Merchant and Locke through and now we are having an FFVI Final. So much for an FFIV and FFVI Final. But here we go...
Locke -"Edgar, Terra can use magic, and we can't. That's the only
difference between us. The fact is......we could use her help!"
Terra -"Thank you, Locke! Thank you, Edgar! ... ... Stop swooning...!"
VS
Merchant - "You're that thief, Locke, aren't you?"
