Board 8 > Save My Favorite Final Fantasy Characters XX: Day 39 [smfffc]

(+) Yeah! (+)

I don't care if anyone uses their votes based on 8bt nor would I even care if someone voted for a character based on really good fanart or fanfics

I grow attachments to my own made-up headcanon of extended lore in media all the time *cough*star wars*cough*
---

Lets be honest pretty much every reason we save characters in this contest is silly
---

also if Edea Lee is taken from me I'll just nom her prototype, Aire

also autocorrect please stop changing nom to mom
---

Good luck with that, I can't even get people to really help me with Magnolia.
---

hey I got Layle in and I'm still the only person who's ever saved him by their own volition
---

Yeesh even Isaaru and Vayne get pity votes now and then. Is Layle your favorite character now over Celes, GMUN? I thought he was kind of a project like Ace, but given you don't seem broken up at all about Celes' lowest finish by the numbers I'm having second thoughts...

As a side note, man it would suck for your favorite character to be from a game hardly anyone knows about, let alone played. The struggle is real enough for my niche characters from major games.

As a side side note anyone wanna help get Larsa back in or get Ba'Gamnan into XXI :D ??? Thinking I'll have to trade most of my noms for Braska and maybe Jecht.
---

Larsa's probably my fourth favorite FFXII character? Behind Ashe, Balthier, and Dr Cid?

That being said I don't think I'd ever nominate him much less save him under any sort of realistic conditions.
---

Dr. Cid is my second favorite after Balthier, and Larsa, while not in my top 5 (Basch, Fran, Ashe, THEN Larsa), is still a character I enjoyed a lot (more than his brother *cough*). After what's happened with XII in recent contests though I'm terrified to nominate Dr. Cid back. What I really need is Liberal Degenerate and that DistilledWater guy back. They'd be behind a good XII cause!

Of course if I ever tried to do what Inviso is doing with XIII with XII the elimination list would probably be like...

65. Seymour Guado
74. Sephiroth
79. Tidus
84. Yuna
99. Wakka
100. Isaaru

So as you can see I don't have the luxury. Not without help at least.
---

Celes is #1, Layle is #2, and then they are both far far ahead of the next in line

Like I said I've gone through enough Celes Stress this year in like 7 smfffcs already so I've let loose with this one, especially given that we've lost Yankees this contest and inviso is still focused elsewhere as

but yes it is sad nobody has played FFCCTCB but at least he was added to Dissidia Opera Omnia which was insanely shocking and the reason I played it! I've also though about making FFCCTCB speedrun playthrough , showcasing the cutscenes and fastforwarding the game so people can experience the character as easily as possible and maybe gain support... but first I wanna finish up getting all the medals in the game and other things have come up

as for the side side note I'm gonna have my hands full with all the big league ff6 boots this year so I'll have limited availability for extras
---

That's kinda the problem yeah and why I said me saving Larsa is probably never going to happen. Like I definitely like him enough to save him but the field would never get so thin that I would save him reliably.
---

Hey where's the spicy elim Celes Official STATS?
---

So now I think Genny should push for year of FF12 next year. :P
---

Another Ivalice based game deserves a year of IMO

Yeah I bet you do. >_>

It's probably never going to happen though. Again this would've been a thing to do when the users who actually saved XII characters were still abundant, but back then I was all about being the X General. Now it's just MarquessLaus who remains. Whoops. I can't even count myself among the regular XII savers because I only care to main Balthier in the same vein as Kleenex mains Ashe, and Inviso would main Fran before this YOXIII thing so clearly I don't have the right..

Don't get me wrong I'd love to General for another game, but that game would either have to have an actual fighting chance or I'd have to have someone looking after a couple other favorites so I'm not left with absolutely nothing to main by like top 40... which is never going to happen so that's that.

62. Celes Chere

CI - 9/40
CII - 8/45
CIII - 1/50 [def. Kuja, 170-156]
CIV - 9/55
CV - 22/60
CVI - 5/65
CVII - 33/70
CVIII - 43/75
CIX - 8/75
CX - 5/75
CXI - 22/75
CXII - 5/75
CXIII - 17/75
CXIV - 21/102
CXV - 28/100
CXVI - 25/100
CXVII - 33/100
CXVIII - 20/100
CXIX - 17/100
CXX - 62/100

Before this elimination, Celes had only placed in the bottom half once in nineteen previous appearances, and that was all the way back in CVIII. She also has a whopping eight top 10s, a number only bested by three others. Basically, she has the numbers to afford a hit like this one. Celes drops from 78.95% to 76.95%, falling two spots to 8th. It should be noted, though, that one of those two is Terra, who retakes her spot as the top FFVI character in the rankings.

And all is well with the world.
---

Worst timeline confirmed

Makes up for cloud!

Terra > Celes anyway
