Seems things are slowly settling down back to normal. I think it's time for me to start up a new FF6 rumble.

Does anyone have any suggestions of any rumbles they would like fought. Anything apart from characters and music. I may restart the music one at a much much later date.

I have a few ideas myself.

Favourite NPCs
Least Favourite NPCs
Bosses
Espers
Relics
Towns/Villages

I like the Favourite NPC idea and Bosses.
Also, Barretboy, on a random note, how the hell do you do that thing where you draw a line through a word - I need it for my Rumble.

You put a tag around it.

<strik!e>
before the words (ne exclamation)
and

afterwards

so it's like

strike

Does anyone have any suggestions of any rumbles they would like fought. Anything apart from characters and music. I may restart the music one at a much much later date.
You could take a look through my IV and VI Rumble to get an idea for different categories you could do, although not sure if you want to do ones that were already done. I didn't do a FFVI Rumble by itself because there may be a shortage of participants for different categories, so I added the IV game to make sure that didn't happen. But if you can find at least 16, then that will be enough.

I am mainly sticking to FF6 beacuse out of all of the classics I believe this one was not only the one that is most played but also the most popular.

I suppose I could do a FF classics rumble that involves every FF classic. \

If people think an FFclassic rumble is a good idea then please say so and I will ditch this FF6 rumble and start one on a bigger scale!

Well, if anything i`d prefer a FF6 rumble. Simply because i never played any of the earlier games. :/

Plus, i think "Favourite NPCs" would be a nice place to start.

No I didn't suggest do a rumble involving other games, I was just saying you could scan through mine. If you do Espers, I did that category with VI, so you could use the list I got. :D

It's probably best to do an FFVI Rumble because I don't think alot of people would be able to join in with an all-classic FF Rumble.

Plus, i think "Favourite NPCs" would be a nice place to start.

What the public wants the public gets. I'll stick with the FF6 rumble for now and start up a fav NPC battle.

Is there anyone who would like to see a particular NPC.

By NPC I mean a character that may or may not by part of the main story. For example the "crazy man" just north of the veldt.

I think a bosses one would be good (Goddess on the Japanese version ;)) lol

It's time to start the "favourite NPC" rumble I think. Here aree hte competitors.

I am going away for about 10 days and Starscream is doing me a massive favour by updating this rumble when he updates his. Please be as simple with your votes as possible to make it's not time consuming to work out what's what. Thanks everyone

I'm going to vote for <B>Vargas</B>. Since he is associated with Sabin, that's good enough in my book.

I'm going to vote for <B>Vargas</B>. Since he is associated with Sabin, that's good enough in my book.

Owzer.

Vargas

Vargas

Hmm, good battle --- I'm gonna go with Owzer. Since his is associated with Relm, that's good enough in my book. :)

Siegfried.

Seigfried He mkes 3 appearences though, the 2 you mentioned but you also see him in a cave near a shortcut, I can't say which one however.

Biggs - I have a softspot for disposable extras.

Biggs. Dont know why, i liked that imperial soldiers in the start.

Biggs --- didn't really care much for Siegfried.

Siegfried

Seigfried He mkes 3 appearences though, the 2 you mentioned but you also see him in a cave near a shortcut, I can't say which one however.
Siegfried
Siegfried (also known as Ziegfried in some cases) is a thief that makes two minor appearances in the game. His first appearance is on the Phantom Train, in which upon opening a chest, the party is brought into a battle. After being defeated (As he has little attack and HP), he escapes with the treasure. His second appearance is in Cave of Figaro in the World of Ruin, where he is following a gang of thieves.

In the coliseum, Siegfried can be found in a small room, claiming that someone is impersonating him, and not to be fooled. Sigfried can be battled in the coliseum, where he is an exceedingly powerful opponent. It is speculated that "Zigfried" is the imposter, and "Sigfried" is the real Siegfried.
(www.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Final_Fantasy_VI_characters#Siegfried)

biggs---he got owned at the start and you just have to feel sorry for him

Biggs, I don't know why.

Siegfried

Biggs

I like introducing things like that.

Biggs. Dont know why, i liked that imperial soldiers in the start.

biggs

biggs---he got owned at the start and you just have to feel sorry for him

Did the imperial soldiers actually died after the attack of the esper? (if im not mistaken, i dont remember the start very good).

Did the imperial soldiers actually died after the attack of the esper? (if im not mistaken, i dont remember the start very good).

It's not certain that they died, i think. They were just blasted away, as i remember, so i would only assume that they died.

Alright,
Biggs - 8
Siegfried - 7

Next up:
Arvis (Arvis is the Returner sympathizer living in Narshe. He finds Terra Branford after her encounter with Tritoch in the mines and nurses her back to health. After he removes the Slave Crown from her, he tries to help her escape the city before the Narshe guards find her. He is nowhere to be found after the Floating Continent rises. Commonly accepted theories on his death are that he was killed by Kefka while the party was in Thamasa, or that he was killed during the ruin of the world.)
VS
Maduin & Madonna (Maduin, a Gigas Esper, and Madonna, a human woman, were the parents of Terra. They were shown in a flashback scene in the game and after Madonna accidentally stumbled onto the Esper world, Maduin nursed her back to health. Though other Espers did not trust her, Maduin believed her to be good and defended her from the others. The two would eventually conceive a child, Terra.)
Battle!
I'll vote for Maduin and Madonna

Arvis, although i got the feeling i'm gonna be the only one voting for him.

<B>Maduin and Madonna</B>, easily.

<B>Maduin and Madonna</B>, easily.

Maduin & Madonna-They were great

Maduin and Madonna --- we just didn't know enough about Arvis to make him interesting. Sorry.

Arvis - 1
Maduin and Madonna - 5
Not much votes this round, keep them coming in.

Next up:
Banon (Banon is the leader of the Returners, he convinces Terra to join the Returners' cause.)
VS
Wedge (The other temporarily playable Imperial soldier. Along with his companion Biggs, they accompany Terra until they are teleported away or killed by the Whelk. Apparently, Their names are based on Luke Skywalker's wingmen Wedge Antilles and Biggs Darklighter, from the movie Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope.)

Fight!

Banon.

Wedge

Wedge-Any Star Wars reference scores major poits with me.

Banon

I just don't like Banon for some reason. I'm going with Wedge (partly for the reason Mr.Denny put lol)

Banon

Banon.

Bannon. One extra is enough.

Bannon what other character power-leveled my party to lvl 40

Banon makes for easy levelling up on the river.

8-3 and Wedge get it handed to him.

Seigfried vs Biggs
Arvis vs Maduin & Madonna

Cid.

Katarin

Got a feeling ill be the only1 :)

Cid *Laughs at ROKI* ;)

I have a strong disliking of Cid for some reason (just like I do for a lot of characters lol) so I'm going with Katarin. You're not alone ROKI lol ;)

I have to side with Cid here.

Cid

I'm gonna toss in another for Katarin --- maybe if this game's Cid had been a bit more interesting or useful --- and Katarin does feature into the ending.

cid

Cid

8-3. Katarin got much more support than was predicted but lovable scientest Cid still triumphs over the mature teen.

General Leo vs Duane
Owzer vs Vargas
Seigfried vs Biggs
Arvis vs Maduin & Madonna
Banon vs Wedge
Cid vs Katarin
Baram vs Duncan
Daryl vs Rachel

Baram
Clyde's former ally, he was struck down in battle. He begged Clyde to end his pain, but Clyde ran away. Ever since, Clyde, a.k.a. Shadow, has been haunted by dreams of his deceased compatriot. (source=www.ffcompendium.com)
VS
Duncan
Sabins master and trainer. Duncan is torn between who to choose out of sabin or vargas as his successor. We discover that he chose Sabin as he is more pure of heart. When Vargas learns this he goes berserk.

Let the battle begin!
I'll vote for Duncan

Is it just me, or is your post all striked.
Duncan

I'm sure it's just a mistake.

Duncan, easily.

Baram, 'cause I just loved Shadow's dream sequences.

Duncan. Felt sorry for him.

Duncan

He forgot to close the strike-through tags with: [/s] (I love the BB codes no one knows about ^_^)

EDIT: Oh, right. After looking at the quote of his post, he was using < strike> (without the space)

Or he might have forgotten to close his HTML tag --- it can be accomplished through HTML also.

Baram

Baram

5-3. Duncan looked like an early winner but Baram came back with several votes but unfortunately not enough to beat the more well-known Duncan.

General Leo vs Duane
Owzer vs Vargas
Seigfried vs Biggs
Arvis vs Maduin & Madonna
Banon vs Wedge
Cid vs Katarin
Baram vs Duncan
Daryl vs Rachel

Daryl
Her image only plays a small part in ff6 but her memory and ship saves the crew in the nick of time.
VS
Rachel
Lockes past lover I believe. While exploring together Rachel slipped and fell off a small cliff, Locke, witnessed her death and did her all to save her. This story was probably one sources used for Tifa's and Cloud's past at Mt Nibel.

Let the battle begin!
I'll vote for Rachel for the Phoenix spell.

<B>Rachel</B>. Seeing as how I'm a big fan of Locke, I would have loved to hear more about their past relationship.

I quite like Daryl actually.

Rachel

Daryl, for the association with Setzer.

Rachel

Daryl

Daryl, for the association with Setzer.

I quite like Daryl actually.

Daryl

I quite like Daryl actually.

Daryl

Banon vs Wedge
Cid vs Katarin
Baram vs Duncan
Daryl vs Rachel

Vargas
Biggs
Maduin & Madonna

Daryl

and to pair them off randomly

Maduin & Madonna vs Duncan
Daryl vs Vargas
Cid vs Biggs

The lovable couple, one esper, one human, although it was thought humans and espers could never get along, they became found of each other and had a young child, terra.
VS
Duncan
Sabins master and trainer. Duncan is torn between who to choose out of sabin or vargas as his successor. We discover that he chose Sabin as he is more pure of heart. When Vargas learns this he goes berserk.

Let the battle begin!
I will vote for Duncan

<B>Maduin and Madonna</B>, still because they gave birth to one of my favorite female video game characters.

<B>Maduin and Madonna</B>, still because they gave birth to one of my favorite female video game characters.

Duncan, but you don't have the details quite right. Duncan did choose Vargas to be his successor, but something went wrong and it was Sabin who was trained instead. Vargas got jealous, but he was always the first choice. But when Sabin told him this, he refused to believe it.


VARGAS: Fool! He made the mistake of choosing you as his successor!
He snubbed me, his only son!

SABIN: No! You were the one he chose!

VARGAS: You're a liar!

SABIN: Our Master wanted you to be his successor, not me. He
appreciated your fine spirit......


... ...

VARGAS: He...he taught you that one already...?!

SABIN: If only you hadn't been in the rush for power...

<B>Maduin and Madonna</B>, still because they gave birth to one of my favorite female video game characters.

<B>Maduin and Madonna</B>, still because they gave birth to one of my favorite female video game characters.

<B>Maduin and Madonna</B>, still because they gave birth to one of my favorite female video game characters.

<B>Maduin and Madonna</B>, still because they gave birth to one of my favorite female video game characters.

Maduin & Madonna

haha it's like in all the rumbles, everyone is quoting someone else's vote. I feel so flattered.

Duncan
cus im different

and probably very unpopular atm

Duncan Is it me or was his only blitz cooler than any of sabins?

7-4, Duncan just didn't have the support to help him beat the more popular than I expected to be Maduin and Madonna.

Maduin & Madonna vs Duncan
Daryl vs Vargas
Cid vs Biggs
General Leo vs Banon

So first up is

Daryl
Setzer's best frined who loved competition, Setzer and Daryl were always racing airships until one day she dissapeared and was found dead a few years later, her airship saves the gang in the nick of time.
VS
Vargas
One of Duncans students, he was chosen to be Duncans successor but believed that Sabin was chosen and was outraged. Th only NPC left that you get to fight.

Let the battle begin!

Daryl
vargas ws kinda shallow

Daryl

Daryl

Daryl

Vargas

Daryl

7-1, Daryl clearly is much more liked than Vargas.

Maduin & Madonna vs Duncan
Daryl vs Vargas
Cid vs Biggs
General Leo vs Banon

So first up is

Cid
The lovable scientist who nurses Celes to health for two years thinking they are the only ones on Earth left alive. There are rumours he was responsible for Kefka's madness.
VS
Biggs
The other half of Wedge. He is a magitek soldier who is slaughtered by the esper Tritoch.

Let the battle begin!
I will vote for Cid

Cid.

I'll have to go with Cid, purely because I found his outfit very silly (I was like 7 at the time okay).

Cid

Cid

Biggs-Anyway Star Wars refrence is plus points in my book. ;(

Cid, best NPC ever.

Mrm... Cid, I suppose, though I don't really think much of either.

Mrm... Cid, I suppose, though I don't really think much of either.

Biggs-Anyway Star Wars refrence is plus points in my book. ;(

I never really liked Cid.

9-2 a few more votes than usual which is nice to see, Cid being the clear winner of this rumble. Will there be a close battle in this rumble from now!

Maduin & Madonna vs Duncan
Daryl vs Vargas
Cid vs Biggs
General Leo vs Banon

So first up is

General Leo
A general of the empire who questions his loyalty when he is asked to inhumane things to innocent people.
VS
Banon
The leader of the returners who can help you build up your characters in very stages of the game

Let the battle begin!
I will vote for Banon

General Leo of course.

General Leo, obviously. Probally my favourite NPC from the FF series.

Leo

General Leo

Once again I have to pickBanon While both Leo and Bannon can be used temporarily Banon played too big a part for me to ignore.

I just have to go with go with General Leo, he's just much more memorable to me.

I just have to go with go with General Leo, he's just much more memorable to me.

I just have to go with go with General Leo, he's just much more memorable to me.

General Leo

General Leo of course.

9-2 exactly the same score as last time! General Leo gave Banon a proper thashing in that round.

Maduin & Madonna vs Duncan
Daryl vs Vargas
Cid vs Biggs
General Leo vs Banon

It seems the left column dominated that tier.

Left we have

General Leo
Cid
Daryl
Maduin & Madonna

To pair them off for the semis

General Leo vs Maduin and Madonna
Cid vs Daryl

First up is

General Leo
The good guy from the Empire, he sincerely wants to get the war over with with a minimum of bloodshed, and tries to negotiate peace with any enemies he gets. He'd succeed, too... that is, if Kefka didn't get in his way poisoning people. Kefka eventually interferes in a terminal way. (www.ffcompendium.com)
vs

Maduin and Madonna
A strange couple, one esper one human, although they didn't think it possible, they not only fell in love but had a child, Terra.

Let the battle begin!

Now this rumble is becoming quite hard, but I'll go for General Leo anyways, for being the great martyr he is.

Oh my this is tough. General Leo, by a nose, cos he's the most memorable NPC in the FF series for me.

Leo

Maduin and Madonna

General Leo

General Leo

Maduin and Madonna

General Leo

6-1, as usual the dominating martyr takes the title

General Leo vs Maduin and Madonna
Cid vs Daryl

First up is

Cid
The lovable scientist who doesn't agree with what he is being asked to do. He studied espers and attempted to infuse Kefkas with their powers and this is apparently what caused Kefkas madness.

vs

Daryl
Only seen for a short time in the game, but her airship and spirit helps the crew when they were in dire need. Also had a love connection with Setzer.

Let the battle begin!
I vote for Daryl

Cid for causing Kefka's madness.

Cid

Cid, best NPC ever.

Daryl

Daryl, for reasons i've mentioned in previous rounds.

Cid

This is easy for me, Daryl.

Cid

Daryl Setzers story touched me

Cid.

He's the reason there's even a game to play since he broke Kekfa's mind, and you also get to control whether he lives or dies...what an awesome NPC. Deryl's basically there to validate the presence of a second airship without screwing the plot entirely.

6-5 and Daryl loses by a single vote, the closest battle in this rumble. The General Martyr goes through to the final.

Here it is, the final that was predicted from the start.

Cid
The brains behind the Magicite operation, he works wonders for the Empire before realizing just what they're planning on doing with it. After meeting Locke and the gang, he quits his day job and joins the Returners. He's known Celes since she was a child and sees her as a daughter or granddaughter.

vs

General Leo
The good guy from the Empire, he sincerely wants to get the war over with with a minimum of bloodshed, and tries to negotiate peace with any enemies he gets. He'd succeed, too... that is, if Kefka didn't get in his way poisoning people. Kefka eventually interferes in a terminal way.

Let rumble final begin!
I vote for Cid

It's all come down to this. I'll have to vote for Cid on the basis that he put Kefka in the state that he was when we confronted him.

General Leo-Nice guy ;(

General Leo. Best NPC ever. His death geniunely touched me.

I think that General Leo is going to win easy

Cid Del Norte Marguez (what a lastname) for the win!

Easy final battle for me, General Leo.

General Leo Christophe

I guess nows a good time to wrap up this rumble with General Leo pulling ahead with 5 votes to 3. After several heated battles the victor was predicted from the very first battle.

So heres your winner

General Leo Christophe

So ideas for a few rumble? I could carry on with a FF6 rumble or switch to a classics rumble containing all of the Final Fantasys from 1 to 6,

The lack of votes in this rumble makes me. :(

Why not try a FF1-FF6 rumble, like you've suggested, picking the best characters from each game.

I'd possibly be interested in a general classics rumble. Might prove interesting. If there's not really more stuff we can do here.

First off, sorry if i haven`t been voting much but my knowledge off FFVI isn`t that great. :(

Also, i feel that a general FF Classics rumble would alienate a large section of Shriners that haven`t played much of the classics, me included.

However, as long as screenshots or music links are provided i can`t see why i or anyone else couldn`t vote. :)

And lastly, Barretboy-I must say, i didn`t think that this rumble was serious at first but kudos for pulling it off. You did a great job. :)

What about a bosses rumble? We could pick out our favorite/most memorable bosses from I-VI. What do you guys think?

Or if there isn't one already, one big character rumble from at least the first 3 U.S. FFs. (1, 4, and 6)

What about a bosses rumble? We could pick out our favorite/most memorable bosses from I-VI. What do you guys think?

Sounds great to me. =)

I that okay with you, barretboy?

I was going to make a class/job rumble but a bosses rumble does sound appealing.
Post your ideas here so not to clutter up the first page of the classics rumble.

Also thank you Denny for the comment, it was nice to feel like I have kept this rumble to a good standard. Also what does kudos mean?

Kudos = Basically means gj~~~~
