I'm here to kill Chaos and avoid boots

I still can't believe we got back to back XIII champions.

I still can't believe we got back to back IV runners up.

it was a magical time, we can get there again (Vanille vs. Rosa)

RIP Chaos but now we get our first Last Standing of the contest!

That would be a very good quality final imo

I'm glad I was absent for those years, I didn't return just to see them come back

especially that final

Maybe we wouldn't have had them at all if you'd never left. It could be your fault.

Future programming note - no rounds Friday through Sunday next week (June 30th-July 2nd); unsure about the following days (probably yes, not definitively), but those three are right out.

Woohoo! Im trying to give Bahamut all my attention, until the boots are over at least.

maybe that should have taught you to appreciate what I bring to the table

but instead I hear backtalk and guff

hey btw andy (and Socko I guess) - reminder that I'm saving Rinoa tomorrow per an NR I offered... way back when. So one of you are off the hook for the 2nd one tomorrow!

TY for the heads up. We'll make a Rinoa fan of you yet, Martin.

I get why it got placed there, but if I could go back to the nom topic Id make Bahamut (FFX) my nom. I dont like that its counted in the FF1 crew. The FFX one always caught my eye.

For whatever reason, summons just don't get treated as separate characters per game. Then again, I don't know for sure that anyone's really tried to argue the point before. Probably because they usually do pretty poorly.

I like the colour-coding for characters excluded based on not meeting the minimum requirement, very nice! You should code it so the Bravely Default characters are permanently filtered out, lol.

I think the one last thing (if I could even nitpick) is sorting the results for each character by percentage descending like on the old site rather than contest order, though that's probably not necessary, but it's nice at a glance to see best & worst placements.

Also just checked and Cissnei is in the top half of leftystats, so nice...

It's definitely inconsistent. We have all these Mogs in this contest from different games but the summons are just defined by their default first appearance? Like, when people nominated Bahamut were they even specifically thinking of that one from FF1? I know I wasn't. I was thinking of FFX Bahamut.

I mean I guess you can just imagine the summons to be from whatever game you want them to be from, but then you have a situation like this where Bahamut is last one standing and its like, did people even of think of that particular Bahamut when they nominated it? I guess you got to place them somewhere, but it's a bit of a rabbit hole if you think too much about it.

I mean, I get the different Cids since they actually have some difference to them arguably, but are the mogs any more unique in each game than the summons? Shouldn't we then start allowing summons to be nominated by game?

I'm sure you could nominate Bahamut Zero or something

But the more specific you get with the summons, the less actual appeal they'll have, so it's a double edged sword

I guess it just kind of makes me wonder now if all these different Mogs should've been allowed or if it should've just been one Mog from its earliest appearance since that's how summons are treated apparently.

Then nominate a specific version next year

I'd actually save Bahamut Zero

Year of bahamut

Bahamut zero
Bahamut fury
Bahamut sin
Neo bahamut

uhhh any more?

DARK Bahamut

Bahamut the fayth just to make it even more confusing

don't forget Dion

when i look to the console log and see some errors popping up as someone browses the site

neat

oh wait i reflexively shut it off now oops i'll put it back

It's time for Bahamut Prime

Jet Bahamut
Amber Bahamut
Garnet Bahamut

Maybe we just get Caius into the contest for the first time, to start

Its not like people nominated all 12 from the FF6 Narshe area

....ten, there are 10 nominatable Narshe moogles. Don't ask how I know that!

https://i.imgur.com/CYb006Q.gif

I'd rather have a dozen Bahamuts than one Caius

It's not too hard to remember. There were three teams of four, but two of them were Locke and Mog. So that leaves 10.
