It's about that time where I start getting the itch to do something contest-y related to FFX. First there was ranking the FFX OST, then there was ranking the FFX Blitzballers, and then there was the Best Blitzer Ever tournament. Now I want to focus on FFX as a whole.
A later craze of Board 8 has been video game moments, and I want to follow in that craze. Now, at first I was going to just rank the FFX moments from the list I have created, but I decided that's not as fun to me, and I don't want the pressure of having to do writeups. I also played around with the idea of doing one of those "submit your lists and I'll tabulate them" lists, but again, writeups and so many variables of what people consider moments. In the end, I settled on the old Board 8 standby: Save My contest.
I think this could be fun. However, I'm not going to completely trust myself to have compiled a list of moments from Final Fantasy X that is effective and efficient enough to make this work. That's where Day 0 comes in: I have assembled a Google Doc with 60 moments on it. I've done my best to provide links and background and all that jazz, which became laborious at times. At this time, it's still a little incomplete, but I figured I'd make it public before going to work today and polishing it off when I got home this evening.
Basically the purpose of this topic is to let people go over the list and decide if there is anything that needs to be added, taken out, consolidated, clarified, or anything else. If you have ideas for improvements, please share them. Hell, if you have an idea better than a silly Save My contest, share it. The better quality of the list, the hopefully better quality of discussion that could be had down the road.
The List:

Rules will be your typical Save My rules, though I think I'm going to start out with a moment needing two saves to be safe. This prevents any loved moment from falling through the cracks early on.
Also, I'd need one or two people to help me put up topics and do tallies and whatnot in times when I'm unable to. You can volunteer to help me out for that here, too.
That's about it. Fire your thoughts away, and sorry for the wordiness.
