OMGz, Squall definitely. Irvine is just annoying. Enough said~ =P

How can you even make this competition. Squall has a badass gunblade and Irvine is the worst FF char in history of FF. So of course I choose Irvine....SIKE


I vote SQUALL

<font color=red face="comic sans ms">I really could not stand Irvine. And just commenting on the biut you put in brackets, he never seemed to be doing so great with the ladies at all. Selphie especially never really seemed too interested in him; while Squall was able to get Rinoa (and Quistis seemed to like him for a while too), so he's better there too. ;) Plus I really liked Squall as a charcater anyway, he's probably my favourite main charcater from the FF series. He'd easily beat Irvine.

irvine, no contest. Hes got a gun, and long range, he can shoot squall in the head before he gets his gunblade up.

Ever seen how the Galbadian Soldiers tend to shoot Squall too? And how much damage to their bullets do to him? Well lets just say that it is quite an insignificant amount of damage. I'm betting that Irvine wouldn't fare much better against Squall either.

Plus, the is no way in hell Irvine is going to surive the limit break Lionheart. So my vote definitly goes to Squall.

Ah, okay. So this is a thread using my idea, except we're doing characters in this one instead of music. Okay, that's cool. All right, my vote: Squall.

Mercutio
01-14-2003, 02:20 AM
Squall sat down, stroking the blade of his weapon, the moon high in the sky. He swung around as he heard a tapping on the hard rock ground.

"Squall... fancy seeing you here!" Irvine chuckled.

"Oh... hey Irvine..." Squall replied turning around again to sharpen his Gunblade.

Irvine flicked his wrist up brining his rifle before him, and pulled the trigger with grace. Squall screamed out in pain as he clenched his shoulder.

"WHAT THE HELL IRVINE!?" He screamed, pulling his Gunblade up.

"Nighty Night Hero-Boy!" Irvine shot again, but Squall quickly pulled his Gunbalde up, the bullet hit the steel blade and fell to the ground with a clang.

Squall ran up to Irvine, swiping to the left. Irvine jumped backwards, but Squall left a huge cut across his chest.

"Haha see-ya bud!" Squall smiled, Irvine quickly firing a shot for Squall's heart but missing horribly and hitting the right side of Squall's chest.

"Ahhhhh!" Squall screamed, thrusting his Gunblade into Irvine's heart and pulling the trigger, sending Irvine flying into a rock.

Irvine's dead body slumped down, leaving a trail of blood behind him. Squall sat down, sharpening his Gunblade...

WINNER: Squall!

Next Round: Rinoa Vs. Quistis! Voting Starts.... NOW! Closes: Thursday.

Agent0042
01-14-2003, 04:12 AM
It has to be Quistis for me. I'd pick Selphie over any of them, but I don't even like Rinoa that much and she's always my weakest character in battle.

Joeshie
01-14-2003, 04:41 AM
Rinoa would bitch slap Quistis anyday! LONG LIVE RINOA!

Autumn
01-14-2003, 06:45 AM
Heh, I like your conclusion for the Squall vs. Irvine rumble Reanimated Spirit. Great job! *Claps*

Anyhoo.. I vote for Rinoa as I like her more than Quistis and Quistis is a huge bossy-boots =P

Nanaki XIII
01-14-2003, 07:01 AM
Yep definitely Rinoa. I like Angel Wings

Riana
01-14-2003, 12:11 PM
Aww, I like Quistis more than Rinoa. Quistis is my best female...

Anyway I vote Quistis!

Cygnus
01-14-2003, 04:25 PM
Quistis was kinda cool, but i choose rinoa. She's got a cool weapon plus she's a sorceress. She'd mop the floor with quistis. Plus Quistis had a stick up her ass and was a bitch to rinoa and she was running after squall, so rinoa has the right to kill quistis.

Meltigemini
01-14-2003, 07:47 PM
<font color=red face="comic sans ms">I liked Quistis as a character, and she had some good limits, but Rinoa was a very well developed character, and I really liked her. I didn't use her in battle very often especially near the end of the game, but early on I use her quite a lot; and she's a good character in the story.:)

Kie
01-14-2003, 11:32 PM
I don't want to bore you with info, so my vote is for Rinoa.

Mercutio
01-15-2003, 12:14 AM
Well here are the scores at the moment...
Quistis: 2
Rinoa: 8

:eek: Wow... but there's still a bit more time left so anything could happen... wait... that's what I said last time...

Mercutio
01-16-2003, 12:49 AM
Quistis: 2
Rinoa: 8

Rinoa sat at the head of the train, wind blowing her hair everywhere. Beside her sat Angelo her loyal companion. She heard the tapping of shoes on the hard ground behind her as the clanking of the train filled the background.

"Rinoa..." Came the voice of Quistis.

"Oh Quistis... hi... What are you doing out here?"

"Killing you..." She grinned as she pulled out her whip and lashed it across Rinoa's face.

Rinoa leapt up and punched Quistis in the face as hard as she could. Her weapon was still in one of the rail cars with Squall... Squall...

"Don't even think about you ever getting Squall... He's mine girl!" Quistis snapped her whip and flung it at Rinoa, sending Rinoa hurdling onto the railing, the only thing stopping her from falling onto the tracks and being mangled by the train.

Quistis charged up for a final attack, but Rinoa grabbed Quistis' arm, smiled, and flung her over the edge.

~*~

Squall sat in the car as the train bumped.

"What was that? Oh probably nothing..."

Below the train lay a mangled corpse of Quistis...

~*~

Round Two is over! Round Three is starting now...!

Selphie Vs. Edea~!

Selphie: 8
Edea: 1

Kie
01-16-2003, 12:57 AM
XD Bye bye Quistis. OK, i vote Selphie. Just can't resist a cute girl in a skirt :P

Agent0042
01-16-2003, 01:38 AM
I vote for Selphie! I love that hairstyle that she has and I love how spunky and fun she is. (And yet she can totally kick ass too. Don't get in the way of The End.)

Nanaki XIII
01-16-2003, 02:03 AM

Autumn
01-16-2003, 05:01 AM
Heh, great ending for Quistis RS. go you~ Anyhoo, this next rumble is going to be hard as I like both Selphie and Edea equally -_-

Hm.. I go for Selphie then as she's getting the most votes and there's no harm on going on the winning side =P

Mercutio
01-16-2003, 05:02 AM
Thankies Amel <(^-^)> Oh and also if you guys haven't noticed yet, in the summary the number of votes the loser gets is the number of hits they get in on the winner <(^-^)>

Nanaki XIII
01-16-2003, 05:38 AM
So is number of votes winner get how much hits he gets on loser?

Mercutio
01-16-2003, 05:52 AM
No, I'm only doing that for the loser.

Riana
01-16-2003, 02:44 PM
;_; Quistis...gone.

Oh well, that's the way the cookie crumbles!

I vote for Selphie, I love her happy-go-lucky attitude! I also like her humour for blowing up stuff.

Meltigemini
01-16-2003, 08:06 PM
<font color=red face="comic sans ms">I vote Selphie for this round. She was actually very useful in battles with Full-Cure and The End, so you could fully heal and end all battles quickly. She could be a bit annoying as a charcater, but I didn't really mind her too much. I just didn't really like Edea as much.

Joeshie
01-16-2003, 11:21 PM
I don't really care about either of them, but I would have to go with Selphie. I'm betting that she could whoop Edea anyday.

Heavens Cloud
01-17-2003, 05:14 PM
WooHoo!! Selphie all the way! she is one of the coolest FF characters!

Mercutio
01-18-2003, 03:07 AM
Selphie entered the stone temple, it smelt strongly of inscense and a cloudy mist filled the entrance. Beyond that sat the main cloister where Edea sat, in deep meditation. Selphie entered the main cloister, greeted by candles and mist. She walked up to Edea and stared at the witche's face. Suddenly Edea's eyes opened, they were glowing black... something wasn't right.

Edea lifted her thin hand up gracefully, as a fireball formed above it and flew into Selphie, knocking her backwards. Edea stood up and picked up her staff, walking towards Selphie once more. Selphie pulled out her weapon, the 'Strange Vision'. She attacked Edea with her full strength, knocking the powerful sorceress backwards... into a pedestal with a huge fire burning. The fire fell over and onto Edea's long dress, setting it on fire. Selphie kept on attacking Edea as the witch stamped her foot, trying to get the fire off. They had soon made their way to the opening room, Selphie still atacked. Soon they were outside and the air was calm, Selphie took one final swing and Edea tumbled down the stairs of the temple [It's like an Aztec temple... lots... of stairs] to the ground below. The fire spread over her dead body as her eyes faded from the black to their normal state...

WINNER: Selphie!

Next Round Starts Now. Cid Vs. Seifer

Cid: 0
Seifer: 6

Kie
01-18-2003, 03:11 AM
SEIFER SEIFER SEIFER. He's soooo kewl. He's gonna win this thing.

Agent0042
01-18-2003, 03:12 AM
Wow, two dislikable characters. I vote Seifer, just because he was a semi-interesting villian throughout the game and also redeemed at the end.

BTW: Selphie should have just casted "The End" on Edea. That would have taken care of quite nicely. :D

Cygnus
01-18-2003, 03:13 AM
oh god this one is just stupid....CID! DUH! He's sooo cool with his his sexy old man ass and his comb over and the fact that hes a wuss.........I'm voting for seifer.

Nanaki XIII
01-18-2003, 04:35 AM
gee...let me think...uhh..Seifer!

Riana
01-18-2003, 12:10 PM
I hope the following who voted for Seifer realise that this is no fight, if you read the first post it says


Round Four: Cid Vs. Seifer [Who's the best at running Garden?]

So, my vote goes to Cid, but I honestly think you should have put Squall down instead he was promoted after all. He did a fine job too.
Seifer is just way too irresponsible. If it were up to him the Garden would have been destroyed.

Mercutio
01-18-2003, 12:12 PM
They are fights Riana, they're just little sub texts I put in there XD I shall go about removing them for future fights... In that case does your vote still go to Cid?

Riana
01-18-2003, 12:14 PM
Oh I get it now. Yeah change my mind it goes to Seifer (what a comparisson!).

Mercutio
01-18-2003, 12:30 PM
XD Well Kie, I'm too good for that scene :P

Meltigemini
01-18-2003, 08:20 PM
<font color=red face="comic sans ms">I didn't mind Cid, but the way he just ran away from his duty when they had to go and fight Edea made me hate him a bit more. I never really liked Seifer that much either, but I'm voting for him anyway.

Mercutio
01-21-2003, 12:35 AM
Cid sat at the control pod in the Garden, he was happy, Squall had been appointed second in command of the Garden and the crisis of Ultimecea was over. Seifer as back at the Garden and doing better than ever also. Unbeknownst to Cid, Seifer loomed behind him, his Gunblade outstretched. He creeped up to Cid and grabbed him in a headlock.

"This'll teach you to favour Squall!"

Seifer ripped his blade across Cid's throat, killing the man instantly.

WINNER: Seifer!

Mini Mog: 6

Hard to say...Moomba's speed would easily dominate, yet with the ability to fly, and his similar speed, I'd have to vote....Mini Mog.

Kie
01-21-2003, 12:50 AM
w00t. My vote goes to Mini Mog because........you can get his card? I dunno, Mini Mog looks kewl.

1300th post :P

Riana
01-21-2003, 11:23 AM
Well seeing as how fierce the Moombas are I believe they would win but the Moogles are so cute. So in my books 'cuteness' conquers all, they'd get the upper hand cuz the Moombas wouldn't dare attack something so cute, so that's my opinion. ^_^

Go Mini Mog!!!

Draven
01-21-2003, 12:22 PM
Mini Mog because they dont fall over rocks on the floor in Jails

Meltigemini
01-21-2003, 07:48 PM
<font color=red face="comic sans ms">Considering you can't get Pocketstations outside of Japan, I've never actually seen Minimog. However I didn't really like moombas that much, and if you were referring to the GF, that wasn't too useful either. Plus the mimimog is just so cute. ;) Minimog. :D

Mercutio
01-24-2003, 03:31 AM
I'm too tired to write up a battle report now, so in short: Mini Mog wins... next round: Griever Vs. Eden... vote now.

Mini Mog pranced around with his pet chocobo in the vast fields when a gloom came over him. Moomba was back to steal his chocobo; he would pay! Mini Mog lept up and unleashed a powerful assult of forbidden magics and physical attacks before landing on the ground and prancing off again; Moomba lay on the ground; singed.

Griever: 0
Eden: 0

01-24-2003, 04:29 AM
Griever, even if he was on the other side. Eden just wasn't that great.

Meltigemini
01-25-2003, 12:50 AM
<font color=red face="comic sans ms">Eden was weird, the summon animation made no sense, and it took too long to summon. Griever was actually cool. I vote for Griever. :)

Uh well I'm back from Japing as Sander calls it [Or going to Japan for those that speak regular english] So I came back, I'm unpacking and guess what I found in my bags that wasn't there when I left: lots of anime and games! Wow... how'd they get there? I then inspect my wallet to find it bare, a few Australian dollars from the exchange and my cards. Oh well, that's what ya get when ya go Japing~! In the midst of unpacking I decided to hop onto my hotmail account and check the piles of e-mails that had been accumulating over the past few days. [It fills up rather quickly!] I was greeted on MSN by none other than Phill! He reminded me about the Shrine and my packing was pushed to the back of my mind as I truged onto mIRC to chat to Desi, NeoSizer and Phill. I hopped onto the forums to check the recent posts, and was greeted by the Rumble. A terrible loss for Eden as the score rests at...

Eden: 0
Griever: 8

Light abandoned the arena as Squall dissapeared from the battlefield and was replaced by a stunning GF... Eden. Griever was shocked to see such power emenating from a GF other than himself and took the chance to get in the first strike. He lunged fowards punching Eden head on, Griever flew back as a drop of sweat dripped down above Eden's head and the mighty Eden dropped to the ground...

Next round is up!

The light faded from view and Balamb Garden was engulfed in darkness. Standing on the balcony were two lovers, embraced in a hug, hey danced slowly around, in a trance like state. Squall; the male, went for the finale as he tilted Rinoa; the female downwards, he however pushed her down to far and she went flying off the edge of the hovering garden, only to get beat around by the propellers, before landing in a bush of thorns. There, her body lay dead and mangled.

"Oops!" Sighed Squall..."
