(+) Yeah! (+)

Anyone else even the conversation between those two?

MartinFF7 posted...

There are too many characters to nominate next year, can we table the Rude vs. Garik faceoff for XXVII please, lol

Surely you can sacrifice a Moogle or two for the battle of the bums.

That's shaping to be put off again also! I'm waiting for the next non-stats day to post the updated projected XXVI nomination slate and uh, I'm not sure how many non-stats characters are remaining come to think of it...

Edit: ok there's at least like 8, still plenty of room

I think we can bring in a few old regulars who can booted again

Let's get in Keepa then

Keepa is my boy. So much heart protecting that goal

Krile can if she can get into two contests and be booted in both of them

her history so far is two boots

FFDragon posted...

...though FFX having a constant stranglehold on the bottom spot, between multiple characters, is kinda great on its own.

Shuyin doesn't count as an FFX character imo

Characters with multiple appearances who are currently below Rude:
Larg
Maria
Tellah
Kelga
Xezat
Hojo
Leila
Krile

All on two. And then there's Garik, of course.

The current bottom 10 in stats btw for those who have been absent:

Edea
Prompto
Interceptor
Shuyin
Yang
Amarant
Kimahri
Vaan
Gabranth
Garik

Prompto and Yang shouldn't be there imo. Maybe Interceptor will get a run if next year is the year of pets.

no ffxiv characters, as it should be

lets spend the next 6 years getting a bunch of ronsos hard booted to fill the entire bottom 10

idk if there are even that many ronsos

so long as Biran and Yenke are above Kimahri so they can yell hornless at him

two more rounds of Hildibrand will do the trick

X and X-2 characters that actually deserve to fill out the bottom STATS slot over Shuyin or Garik in my humble opinion:

Nooj(ie Woojie, because of Leblanc alone)
LeBlanc (enough said)
Logos and/or Ormi (bumbling henchman done wrong)
Brother (inoffensive in X, insufferable in X-2)
Shelinda (enough said)

If you ever see me nominate any of these six characters you will know for sure that I'm trolling and not just supporting some "niche" favorite like Dona, Anima, Isaaru, Braska, or Yunalesca. Pure lulz. I detest all of them.

Shuyin never deserved the bottom spot to be honest. Is he the best villain? Absolutely not, but Seymour and Sin and Jecht kinda, but not really would've been a tough act for anyone to follow. He's serviceable enough. And Garik is so "whatever, who cares?" I'm surprised raytan bothered to put him in. He doesn't deserve the bottom spot over a far more memorable and hatable X or X-2 character. Biran or Yenke as mentioned would also be solid choices, but I don't care to nominate either of them in, let alone keep them in long enough to get soft booted repeatedly to tank their STATS.

Random assorted blitzball players, O'aka XXIII, Maechen, and the like have too many random fans to be feasible as bottom slot options. And Wakka is... Wakka. I really DO wish people who genuinely like Kimahri would stop nominating him in only to NOT give him support when he needs it the most and [insert surprise Pikachu face here] when his fuzzy ass gets Sent packing with another hard boot. He is the least useful X party member by a country mile, but he's a unique character and doesn't deserve his checkered contest past any more than Wakka does.

If y'all are dead set on having a X or X-2 character in the bottom then maybe consider actually scraping the bottom of the barrel.

I always forget which one is Nooj, Baralai and Gippal

Tellah is the most worthy of being dead last in the STATS among the contenders

Nooj is the one that sucks (as does his plan)

Gippal is the good one.

if y'all wanna see the full dffoo horn scene: final part, starts at 11:00 here

i had to trim it down to 4 panels for gamefaqs embed to be happy and i re-ordered the leon line which actually comes before the other panels

Which one is the guy with the really stupid hair?

"Which one is the guy with the really stupid <noun>."

It's Nooj. It's always Nooj.

And Baralai is... there. And he does... a thing too.

(Sorry, baby I still love you)

##NewYevonGANG

Baralai is the best one

All I know about Nooj is his hair and onesie are pure FFX

Fixed it for you. Seymour is really the only crazy haired dude in X and NO ONE has a fit as stupid as Nooj's in the first game.

counterpoint: lulu is all belts

Leblanc is better than like, all but TWO MAIN characters from FFX (one of whom she's DEFINITELY better than in FFX-2).

She's better at being bad than all of them except Nooj

Look I know you hate this expression, but if this isn't some fucking Invisopinions I don't know what is.

Like for real if your character ranking goes Auron > Rikku >=< Leblanc > any other character from X or X-2 then I don't even know why I would bother to continue to have this discussion. It would eventually cause me to projectile vomit and consider committing seppuku so I'd rather just peace out of it now.

Tidus > Rikku > Seymour > Wakka > Leblanc > some other people

Inviso is close to correct imo. Even closer if you don't consider Seymour a main character.

how many times do we need to boot Zidane in 100th to get him to the bottom

I mean... even Lopen's list has SOME facet of integrity to it, but this sudden display of Leblanc love is gonna be a real yikes from me, dawg.

https://youtu.be/MzF9oEQDles

I am Frollo and lea and Inviso (and Lopen to a lesser extent) are all Captain Phoebus here

I also love Leblanc and will not allow her to get bottom stats

Other recently mentioned characters who I will not allow to get bottom stats because they are great: Tellah, Brother

MZero posted...

if Zidane is eliminated today (41% for 60th place) and then goes 100/100 for 1% every contest thereafter, skipping every other contest due to hard boot status

....it would take until SMFFFC 446 before his percentage would hit 8.9058%, falling below Garik's 8.9382%.

I guess we'd need to combine that with stats projects of all the other lower-percentage characters and maybe we could achieve it in our (children's) lifetimes

So you're saying it's possible

Not at one contest a year we aren't.

What if Garik wins every contest from now on and Zidane gets 100th

What if we get him the lowest softboot every year so he can always be in without skipping any contests?
