Well, you're definitely wrong about the details of the finals. You voted for Zack more than Squall.

Not that it matters to Leon since a betrayal is a betrayal but I thought Squall wouldn't have even gotten his one shot if I hadn't at least partially honored that "deal".

Yes, this is correct. Squall probably doesn't get as far as he does without your help, but it's still a rationalization for why breaking it at the end wasn't a big deal.

Alright you've got me there. I'm sorry. I can't take back what I did, but on the bright side Squall has probably benefited from it far more than he suffered. I mean he's on the cusp of most consecutive top ten placements which his other fans might not have been on board with had he won.

That's not more rationalization, that's just observation. I mean look at what happened to Tidus after his victory. You can blame that on me being a c-word or whatever if you want, but it's far more likely people just move on to the next big thing after the parade is over and done with- everyone but me and MZero cuz we're the best.

As another observation I'm sure I don't need to remind you that I wasn't the only one who pulled Squall support at the end because of pj, and that Squall lost by an amount not equal to just one person turning coats. In short, pj totally lost you that final. It's not your fault as you couldn't prevent him from being a tool, but it's also not completely my fault for being petty like a few others were.

I like to think all of us have grown from that experience at least. It's fine if you don't want to work with me anymore: that's your choice. I don't particularly have a reason to want to work with you in the future so it doesn't matter to me. I wouldn't be opposed either for that matter.
