Vivi >= Kuja > Quina >> who cares >> Eiko >= Steiner

I'd like to see a good Quina run someday. eat all frog, eat all character

I think it was two years ago we got him into the top 20 or 25, I'd definitely be down to give him a really deep run
---

Kuja > Vivi > Zidane > Freya > Garnet > Garland > Blank > Steiner > Amarant > Beatrix > Quina > Eiko

Boy some of these rankings are strange; I have a hard time believing people really like Quina at all. I refuse to even include Necron in a ranking.
---

bot where's quina
---

Zidane > Freya > Kuja > Garnet > Quina > Vivi > Blank > Beatrix > Garland > Amarant > Steiner > Eiko
---

Garland is okay, for the record. No one ever even mentions him though. Better than the other Garland (Dissidia ignored).
---

FF1 Garland has about 4 lines of dialogue, and they're all good and memorable. Also his armor is awesome. Much better than FFIX Garland.

Also I only included Necron as a token "you must be this tall" line. He's no good either.

i agree on the Necron thing, though i think it's a bit hypocritical to then throw Blank into your ranking. and is it really so hard to imagine people liking Quina? it's a silly character for fun, what's wrong with that?
---

I'm not a big fan of Necron's "terrible final boss" policy, but I do approve of his "destroy the crystal & reduce all existence to the zero world" policy!

Quina is a very fun character and I've always been a fan. Though maybe the spamming of Limit Glove contributed to that too...

Vivi >> Beatrix > Quina >>>>>> everyone else sucks about equally

Blank was once in this contest, unlike Necron.

Selling my first save next round for Seymour

Anyone interested or lack an H1 trade for the next round?
---

Man, I was so damn tired this night to the point I was late one hour to work because I turned off all alarm clocks, and during the night I didn't give a shit about trying another alarm clock to trade a save

But now that I am fully awake I feel bad for not trying my best
---

I feel you, but it's also good not to take it too seriously.

Time to jump onto the Vivi train now, altough it's not going to be even close to the same passion I had before (like, probably no alarm clock)

See, if anyone doubted that FFIX as a whole is a swarm overmind that absorbs the powers of its fallen brethren, I direct you here

Totally agree, but check out that what XIII is pulling off though!

Unless you predict them to fall like dominoes once it starts. I could see that too.

Good morning!

Still looking for that h1 trade for Seymour
---

Ill trade Seymour for Gilgamesh h1
---

Gilgamesh it is!

There is no drama or anything, this is just me not doing my best
I think I would have taken it better if she lost last round, because then I voted for her once and traded 3 votes, so I did my best and would have no regrets
But here? if I just put my alarm clock two more times...it could have been different

And well not the first time I lose sleep over stupid stuff, I used to wake up because of Pokemon Shuffle and some contest matches (Link vs Draven being the best example)
---

I'm right there with you Nanis, but there was clearly a limit to our guys. Even if you did set your alarm, do you get the trades in time?
And if you do, other people make diff decisions, eg I was holding my save but would've gone earlier in the rush.

Like in my case, even if Cissnei survived, I only counted seven possible saves for her in day 85 based on who showed up. I offer 2 NRs to get her through and she'd be out the next day anyways. Garnet would've been like 40-something place without you, take pride in what you accomplished!

Plus there's always next year, better than another damn Vivi run...

16. Garnet Til Alexandros XVII
CII - 13/45
CIII - 31/50
CIV - 17/55
CV - 41/60
CVI - 34/65
CVII - 11/70
CVIII - 4/75
CIX - 3/75
CX - 23/75
CXI - 17/75
CXII - 26/75
CXIII - 18/75
CXIV - 52/102
CXV - 51/100
CXVI - 27/100
CXVII - 30/100
CXVIII - 28/100
CXIX - 71/100
CXX - 16/100

While Garnet rarely places poorly - three of her five bottom half placements were only barely so - she's had great difficulty making it through the second halving. This is her first time in the top 20% since she just missed out on the finals way back in CIX. She bumps up from 65.95% to 66.96%, holding steady at 18th.

What's the deal with the early contest Kuja domination there, he had a serious backer or two back then?

"Yes"

Kuja was an unstoppable monster the first 6-7 contests he was in.
---

Amy's army was a big backer.

hi

Well I knew you were a fan Janus but i mean, I assumed there was something else... you were around this year after all

(X-atm092 is better to back anyhow!)

Also charon, dont know who Amy is in that army...

Kuja is pretty great so it's not surprising.

I haven't really had the opportunity to help him much in my tenure though

I was gonna take this.

But it would be dumb for you to trade with me on this, since we both main him. Youd be better off with another friend. Good luck.

Better that you don't.

But there's a reason why both he and Terra have had much less success since the raytan era.

CXIX - 71/100

And this is also my fault
It was a Friday IIRC and I was fucking tired and went to sleep early...the round wasn't even that late (11 PM I think) yet I missed it entirely
But to be fair if she couldn't survive to at least round 50 without me she didn't deserve to anyway

Pfft you guys talk about not showering, I need to avoid sleeping!
---

Nanis don't beat yourself up too much. This is a good run for her, raised her % up, and while I think you can be a bit weird you did good here. No need to sweat it!
