Board 8 > ~ Save My RPG: Day 38 - Final Three: FF9, CT, HGSS (11 saves apiece) ~

(+) Yeah! (+)

And the 7th gets 4th. Honestly, I don't think FF7 could ever win something like this. People perceive it as the Goliath, so it will always make it far but fall short due to people wanting their other favorites to get a chance in the spotlight. In doing so, they've turned FF7 into a David. It's kind of strange.

The rules:
1. One save per user per hour. You know the drill.
2. It takes eleven saves from different users for a game to be safe. The last game remaining will be sent to the jury.
3. Redemption Island is over for this season. Thank you for participating!
4. The following are strictly prohibited: trading saves, rallying outside the topic, @-ing someone to rally, editing saves, deleting posts, alt-voting, and lawyering. Penalties will start with a warning, followed by a temporary ban (or two), followed by a permanent ban.
5. Even though you cannot trade saves, you are encouraged to rally in the topic by posting game/character propaganda.
6. Results are final once the next round is posted. Please point out any funny business! (You may @ someone to point out their mistake.)
7. Only rounds started by Andy (BlueCrystalTear or __LeiaRolando__) are valid. Expect rounds between 1-2 Central unless I specify otherwise. I leave work around 4:45-5 pm Central, so don't be surprised if updates stop around then.

Lets do this thing. 39 days, 50 RPGs, 1 Survivor!

FF with back to back to back elims.

And the 9th is 3rd.

Finale will be 48 hours, posted tomorrow morning sometime. Will work much the same as the Redemption round, just longer.
---

So your saying I'm going to forget to vote the maximum amount of times and make pokemon lose as a result.

FF with back to back to back elims.

Not a surprise. Happened earlier last year, when IX went out 11th, X went out 10th, and XIII went out 9th. And those were the last three FFs - not a single one made top 6 vs. 3 this year.

No, I'm saying you'll have more time as to not forget, especially since it'll be posted on a Sunday.
---

It really should be no save limit though, if it runs x hours I'll get x saves in, damn it

Kind of regret saving Chrono Trigger those times when it was 1 save away from elimination but it is a good enough game/sacrificial finale lamb.

"no save limit" sounds like the perfect way to ensure that the finals are decided by two or three people camping their computer for the entire round

Don't do that, in other words
---

well of course only one save per hour.

So.... people camping by their computer once an hour for the entire round.

10 saves in 48 hours isn't exciting enough!!

Would you guys be fine if, since it's going another day, I allowed for a maximum of 15 saves per person? The only reason I'm doing it for 48 hours is because it's being posted on a Sunday, and as you all know, those are by far the worst days for me.
---

Generally I'm alright with anything that isn't unlimited saves, as "exciting" as that might be

15 is a lot but it's still fine
