All right, so that's
Blitz Off - 3
Don't Be Afraid - 10
An easy win for "Don't Be Afraid."
And that's the closing bell on the second round! Here's what's left for our Quarter Finals:
Don't Be Afraid - Final Fantasy VIII (Eliminated in the Quarter Finals)
Hunter's Chance - Final Fantasy IX
The Man with the Machine Gun - Final Fantasy VIII (Going on to the Semi-Finals)
Mystery Sword - Final Fantasy IX (Going on to the Semi-Finals)
The Evil Mist's Rebirth - Final Fantasy IX (Going on to the Semi-Finals)
Blue Fields (Orchestrated Version) - Final Fantasy VIII (Eliminated in the Quater Finals)
Slew of Love Letters - Final Fantasy IX (Eliminated in the Quarter Finals)
Waltz for the Moon - Final Fantasy VIII
First up:
The Man with the Machine Gun - Final Fantasy VIII ("It's still dangerous! And since you're such a cute little girl, the monsters will especially be after you! They'll catch you and then they'll suck all your blood out! If anything like that should happen, Uncle Laguna's gonna cry...")
vs.
Slew of Love Letters - Final Fantasy IX ("I'm telling you, she was too shy to hand me the letter herself! And if you don't think I'm a ladies' man, you're wrong. Chicks are intimidated by good-looking guys. That's why...")

Okay, so that's going to be:
The Man with the Machine Gun - 6
Slew of Love Letters - 2
A fairly easy win for the Laguna battle theme. Not a lot of votes, perhaps because of the holiday weekend?
Next up:
Mystery Sword (a.k.a The Sword of Doubt) - Final Fantasy IX ("Ha ha ha. I've never been so humiliated in my life. I once killed a hundred knights single-handedly... To me, you two are nothing more than insects.")
vs.
Blue Fields (Orchestrated Version) - Final Fantasy VIII ("Once we get to the [Fire Cavern], I'll explain how to junction magic. Use the command 'Draw' during battle and stock magic from your enemies. Be sure to have some stocked! Ready to go?")

Final battle of the Quarter Finals:

A GOOD OFFENSE IS THE BEST DEFENSE! ATTACK! You can't lose to that monkey Zidane! YES! THAT'S IT! NOW'S YOUR CHANCE! ONE MORE TIME! VIVI, BEHIND YOU! YES! GO!")
vs.
Waltz for the Moon - Final Fantasy VIII (Quistis: "You really are an excellent student. Even that dance was perfect." Squall: "Thank you. ... Yes?" Quistis: "So you'll dance with someone you don't even know, but you can't even stand being around me?")

Okay, this round is ending, so let's get the results and see what's been chosen as the last entrant for the Semi-Finals...
Hunter's Chance - 5
Waltz for the Moon - 4
By a margin of just one vote, it's "Hunter's Chance" hanging in there. Will it be able to make the final battle? Semi-finals, coming up now...
Hunter's Chance - Final Fantasy IX (Eliminated in the Semi-Finals)
The Man with the Machine Gun - Final Fantasy VIII (Going on to the Final)
Mystery Sword - Final Fantasy IX (Going on to the Final)
The Evil Mist's Rebirth - Final Fantasy IX (Eliminated in the Semi-Finals)
Final Fantasy IX has really cleaned up here, with three of its tunes in the semi-finals. So first up...
Hunter's Chance - Final Fantasy IX (Breeder: "This year's specimen is perfect. Nothing can stop him! Ha ha ha! What power!" Soldier: "Hey, make him stop! It's too early to let him loose!" Breeder: "How? I have no control over him." Soldier: "Dammit! Open the gate at once! The gate's gonna fall apart!" Breeder: "GO, ZAGHNOL!")
vs.
Mystery Sword - Final Fantasy IX (Zidane: "Think you can get away?" Beatrix: "Get away? Hahaha. You're a bigger fool than I imagined... Have you forgotten how badly I beat you back in Burmecia?" Freya: "So, you are more of a fool for not finishing what you started!" Vivi: "You're gonna pay!" Quina: "I find no tasties in this town, so we cook you for breakfast!" Beatrix: "Then allow me to shatter your delusions of grandeur. ... ... No more games. ... Stock Break. ... ... I shall leave with the jewel now.")

Okay, end of first semi-final...
Hunter's Chance - 1
Mystery Sword (or "The Sword of Doubt," as some are fond of) - 8
It would seem that "Mystery Sword" truly can't lose, or at least for right now. We'll be finding out soon if it can win the whole thing, but for now, we've got another semi-final battle to do...
The Man with the Machine Gun - Final Fantasy VIII (Laguna: "Seriously, I have a BAAAD feeling...! There's somethin' fishy goin' on here! You know what the old folks say... The unfamiliar always happens..." Kiros: "You mean...'unexpected', right?" Ward: "You only got the 'un' part right." Laguna: "Aah, shut up! Stop your clamorin' and make sure all your gear's equipped. Now, let's move out!")
vs.
The Evil Mist's Rebirth - Final Fantasy IX (Zidane: "So what do you say, Rusty? Friends? Come on, let's enjoy this camping trip while it lasts." Steiner: "Camping--you imbecile! Surely even you must know something about the Mist! The vicious monsters it spawns! The abnormalities it stirs in the mind and body! Princess, we must leave this dangerous place at once.")
Will this be an all FFIX final battle, or does the FFVIII Laguna battle tune have what it takes? Cast your votes?
P.S.: As I mentioned in an earlier post, the theme for the next edition is quotes. I've already started putting together a list of past favorite choices based on results in the sectionalized rumbles, but you're welcome to do nominations as well. Remember, if you don't nominate, then you can't complain later if your favorite isn't included. I'll be including nomination spots as well, but this is your early chance to get something in. I'll take pretty much anything except quotes from XII --- I think it's generally agreed that it's too early for that. However if you have something from something like Crystal Chronicles, Tactics, Tactics Advance or XI, I'm perfectly willing to add it in.

Mm, Man with the Machine Gun!
Oh--and I have, like, this awesome idea for the next general FF rumble!
Should I PM it to you, Agent0042? >> Or should I write it somewhere here?
I looked over the previous ones, and it hadn't been done yet....
Ohhh, what the heck...! I'll just write it here....
After this, I think it'd be great idea to do Spell Effects and animation!
There could be subcategories, too..."Best Overall", "Best Sound", "Most Innovative", "Most Devastating-Looking"...>> Or stuff like that....
I'll upload short clips onto YouTube, too! Since there are many spells that people may not have seen many times due to lack of use, or anything like that....
But the reason I chose this is that some of the spell effects of some magic is very wonderfully done...some are very creative...and some I just like to cast because I love the sound it makes....
Quite a bit of time is spent on some spell animation, too! But they're often overlooked due to the more flashy and lengthy 'overdrives'/limits or summons....

Hm, I actually like "Rose of May", or "Those whom we Protect" better than the "Mystery Sword" version....I like those two better than "Man with the Machine Gun"....

Okay, we are moving on to the next addition, which is quotes. You guys have posted some great nominations. I've found quite a few good ones myself, so while I may not use all of your nominations, I will definitely include as many as possible. I am also including one additional nomination spot for each section. So if anyone has anymore nominations, submit them along with your vote. If nobody else nominates for a particular section, I'll use the nominations previously posted, if there are any for that section. If not, I'll make the selection myself. Oh, and I've decided that to simplify things, I'm only going to do quotes from FFV - X-2. Those that nominated anything from another game --- don't worry. I promise I will do one that includes those eventually.
Here's the list of what's included. Many of the quotes are so large that I am not posting the full text of the quotes right now. Instead, I'm posting descriptions and you may use these descriptions when casting your vote...

Final Fantasy VIII - Chicken Wuss
Seifer: Ha ha, this is great! I've got a chicken-wuss and a guy that's just reached puberty in my squad!
vs.
Final Fantasy IX - What it Really Means to Die
Vivii: Mr. 288 told me that I understand what it means to live and to die... But it's only because I thought stopping was different from dying... I don't think I really understand what it means to live and to die. Where do we come from...? Do we go back there when we die...? If that's what it means to live... I wonder where I came from...? Where will I end up when I die...? Why am I shaking...? What is it that I'm feeling...?
It's comedy again (and surprisingly popular comedy too) vs. serious. Which will win?

Wow. Wasn't expecting a tie. Well, the rule for the first round on this one is when we're in a tie situation, whichever one was winning before the tying vote came in goes through. And in this case, that would be Respect Points. So the FFX-2 quote squeaks it by one vote!
Next up...
Final Fantasy V - The Legend of the Crystals
In the beginning, there was Void. Then four Spirits came. Together in this Void, the Crystals were born and the world was created.
Thus, Hope gave the Earth blessings, Courage lit the flame, Kindness made water as a source of life and Quest let wisdom ride upon the wind.
When the void endangers the world again, the evil that was sealed away will be reborn. If within people live the four spirits, Light shall again be born.
vs.
Final Fantasy IX - My Heart is Set
Beatrix: It can't be... Princess... ...So, it was true. The queen really did mean to kill her...
Steiner: WHAT!? No! The queen would never do such a thing!
Beatrix: Steiner, it is time for you to accept the truth. ...My heart is set. All this time, I have been mistaken...

It's kinda rose-colored, right? First in the sea, then it spreads to the sky, then to the whole city. It gets brighter and brighter, till everything glows. It's really...pretty. I know you'd like it.

Cloud's Revelation - 4
I Could Never Forget - 13
Pretty overwhelming, the FFX quote goes on to the second round.
Next up...
Final Fantasy VI - Monument to Non-Existence
Kefka: I command the greatest power in the universe! You are all
helpless before me! I will destroy everything... I will create a monument to non-existence!
Terra: (or other if Terra is not present) Life will go on, there will always be people, and dreams.
Kefka: No! I will hunt them down. I will destroy it all! Destroy! Destroy! Destroy!!
vs.
Final Fantasy VIII - Good Luck, Seifer
Quistis: Good luck Seifer.
Seifer: Instructor, I hate when people wish me luck. Save those words for a bad student who needs them, eh?
Quistis: Ok then. Good luck, Seifer.

A flurry of votes for the cheesy super-villain dialogue weren't enough to save it from Seifer's wisecrack.

Final Fantasy V - No Mere Rage Nor Hatred
Galuf: Exdeath!!
Exdeath: Take this.You've made me mad! To the world of Death with you!! "Flare" "Holy" "Meteo" Wh-, why won't you die!
Galuf: Not yet. I can't die yet. Even if my life burns out. I will defeat you!!
Exdeath: Neither rage nor hatred can defeat me.
Galuf This is no mere rage nor hatred!
vs.
Final Fantasy X-2 - A Much Larger Ship
Baralai: There are some things you can't do alone. But they become easy with friends beside you.
Nooj: This was the lesson that we learned when we launched those ships.
Baralai: It was power... And we misused that power. We turned our friends and followers against each other.
Nooj: Forgive us. (He, Baralai and Gippal bow.)
Baralai: Somehow we forgot. There's a much larger ship out there. One we've been riding ever since we were born. That ship is Spira.
Nooj: No one knows just where our voyage will lead us. But we do know one thing: One way or another, we will get by. We'll go on living. The Calm will continue.
P.S.: I apologize for the slightly shitty translation on the FFV quotes. I've seen better before, but that's the best I could cobble together from online translations and my own edits based on memory.

Looked like maybe the FFX-2 quote would battle back, but the classic FFV quote won this one. Okay, moving on...
Final Fantasy VII - That Pizza
Cloud: A floating city... Pretty unsettling scenery.
Barret: Huh? Never expect ta hear that outta someone like you. �you jes' full of surprise. The upper world�a city on a plate� It's 'cuz of that #$@*&#' pizza', that people underneath are sufferin'! And the city below is full of polluted air. On topa that, the Reactor keeps drainin' up all the energy.
Cloud: Then why doesn't everyone move onto the Plate?
Barret: Dunno. Probably 'cuz they ain't got no money. Or, maybe� 'Cuz they love their land, no matter how polluted it gets.
Cloud: I know�no one lives in the slums because they want to. It's like this train. It can't run anywhere except where its rails take it.

Final Fantasy V - Grandpa is Laughing at Me
Krile/Cara: Everyone! You've come!
Bartz/Butz: Of course. How could we forget about a friend we fought together with?
Krile/Cara: Everyone.
Reina/Lenna: Tears don't suit you. Krile, you need to be strong!
Faris: Galuf's gonna laugh at you!
Krile/Cara: Sniffle. Hehe, you're right. Grandpa is laughing at me. The Crystals have regained their power. Now we must protect it.
Butz: Just like Dad and the rest had protected them.

Final Fantasy X-2 - Believe With Me
Yuna: One thousand years ago, before the time of Sin... Spira was torn in two, divided by a terrible war. This was Spira's great mistake. Out of the rift left by this terrible conflict, Sin was born. In only two short years, Spira has shaken off its unhappy past. We have moved on. Now, Spira grows brighter with each passing day. That light is our strength. I don't want to see it fade. Do you? There are so many of us, each with different ideas and different beliefs. Of course we sometimes disagree, and arguments will happen. But our hearts can and should always be one. (Lenne joins.) Believe with me: Even if we're torn apart, our feelings will unite us. That's what this song is about. ("One Thousand Words," concert version begins)

How would you have me do it, Prak? Flip a coin? Cast a vote myself --- when I'm already the one who determines the matchups? Wait for somebody else to vote?
Prak
01-10-2007, 04:48 PM
Well, that depends on how you determine the pairings. If they're random, then there's no problem with you having a vote you can use to break ties. That's the way I've always done it in my own rumbles. Of course, if you choose the pairings, then that's a horse of another color and I don't really have an answer for you.
Just saying it's something for you to consider.

I choose the pairings myself to make for what I think would be better battles, but I also acknowledge that can occasionally lead to some bias in the selection. Which is why I have never voted myself in my own rumbles.
I suppose I could try the tie-breaker selection some other way, but I'm not really sure what would be fairer. With the way I'm doing it now, it's like if one is winning and the other one ties, then it's like sorry, but that's not quite enough. If you see that your choice is tied and I suppose if you really want it to win, go see if you can recruit somebody else to vote for it before I make it in to post the next battle.

With the way I'm doing it now, it's like if one is winning and the other one ties, then it's like sorry, but that's not quite enough.

Well, my problem with that method is that it implies that all votes are not equal. If there's a solution, however, I don't know it. I guess it's just a tough situation.

I also agree with Prak. It makes the last persons vote pointless. Flipping a coin would be fairer imo.

Coin-toss it is then, if nobody has any objections.
Otherwise, carry on with the voting.

Also, I dislike your tiebreaking method, Agent, because I'm an FF9 fanboy
Fix'd :smrt:
I also vote for Excerpt from "Aria di Mezzo Caraterre"
Agent, in my rumble, I usually vote myself (the pairings are random), and if there's a tie, I withdraw my vote.

Okay this is running late again, so let's get this battle ended:
Excerpt from "Aria di Mezzo Caraterre" - 10
The Manliness Scale - 5
Fairly clear-cut, there. The FFVI opera excerpt moves on to the second round. Next up:
Final Fantasy V - Doesn't Make Me any Less Important
Reina/Lenna: What's goin on?
Butz/Bartz: Reina. Fa. Faris is.
Galuf: A girl!!
Faris: What's wrong with that!?
Lenna: But, why?
Faris: I was found by the pirates when I was little, and they raised me.
Butz: And you pretended to be a man?
Faris: A female pirate would just get laughed at.
Galuf: Hmph. I knew you were too beautiful to be a man!
Faris: Hey, just remember that my being a female doesn't make me any less important! I'm just as good as you guys!
vs.
Final Fantasy VII - I Came Up With Something Different
Barret: You're pretty damn optimistic! You up to somethin'!?
Cid: Yeah, I been thinkin' about this and that. All the time we been up here lookin' at the planet. I been thinkin' even when were floatin' in the ocean in that escape pod.
Cloud: I've... been thinking too. About the universe... planet... ocean. How wide and big... No matter where I go and what I do it won't change a thing.
Cid: Maybe you're right. But I came up with something different. I always thought this planet was so huge. But lookin' at it from space, I realized it's so small. We're just floatin' in the dark. ......kind of makes you feel powerless. On top of that it's got Sephiroth festerin' inside it like a sickness. That's why I say this planet's still a kid. A little kid sick and trembling in the middle of this huge universe. Someone's gotta protect it. Ya follow me? That someone is us.
Tifa: Cid... that's beautiful.
Barret: Yo! Cid! You even got to me! Do, now what? How're we gonna protect the planet from Meteor?
Cid: ...............I'm still thinkin' about that.

I'll vote for Doesn't Make Me any Less Important, because it's better than Cloud being emo and Cid pulling a hackneyed excuse for caring about the world out of some amateur writer's ass.

Doesn't Make Me Any Less Important, though if memory serves, Faris implied something far more sinister than being 'laughed at' if the pirates found out she was a girl...

I know. I'm gonna have to try to find a better script. So many of the translations of FFV online are weak, or lame, or stupid (or all three.) I've been trying to locate a better one, but so far I haven't had any luck.
Anyway, carry on...

Well, the results on this are pretty clear, so let's get back to the normal schedule:
Doesn't Make Me Any Less Important - 6
I Came Up With Something Different - 3
The FFV quote goes on to the second round.
Next up:
Final Fantasy VI - Call Me a Treasure Hunter
Merchant: You're that thief, Locke, aren't you?
Locke: Hey! Call me treasure hunter, or I'll rip your lungs out!

Final Fantasy X-2 - Lucil's Speech
When the Calm arrived two years ago, it echoed deep in the hearts of Spira's youth. With Sin's defeat, we had lost not only our mortal enemy, but also our purpose in life. I, too, felt lost. I did not know what direction to take, where to channel my energy. It was Meyvn Nooj who guided our lost generation to a new purpose: to uncover Spira's true past. This is the same man who was once called Deathseeker, who made no attempt to hide his despair. What caused Meyvn Nooj to change? That is not for us to know. Nonetheless, under Nooj's leadership, we finally found a way to apply our strength. But look at us now! The power we hoped to use for good has intoxicated us all. Even Nooj. The Youth League is in danger of becoming a mindless band of thugs that know only violence. A power that destroys rather than creates. Without meaning. No better than Sin. Do you remember why the Youth League seeks the truth behind Spira's past? Because Spira's past is the foundation for its future. Our power exists so that we may cut a new road, to a new age. An age where children will never have to lift a sword!

Call Me a Treasure Hunter; it was brief and pretty amusing whereas Lucil's Speech is just long winded and takes way too long to get the point across.
