Begins: 11pm, 2nd March 2010
Ends: 11pm, 4th March 2010
It may have taken ten rounds…
Eviction Votes
Golden Sun: The Lost Age – 6
Dragon Age: Origins – 2
Final Fantasy XII – 1
Final Fantasy IX - 1
Chrono Trigger DS – 1
Lost Odyssey - 1
Immunity Votes
Final Fantasy XII – 5
Golden Sun: The Lost Age – 4
Final Fantasy IX -1
Chrono Trigger DS - 1
…but we finally have our first Eviction votes for the two Final Fantasy entrants in the contest. OK, so it was only one apiece and it was the Immunity votes for XII that actually had a bearing on the game, but I thought it worth noting.
The lack of Eviction votes for FFXII was unexpected because DreamLines had a good point when he revealed how he was "surprised that no-one yet has tried to pull off a sneaky back-door Final Fantasy Bandwagon, so here's trying" before casting the only and vote you see above - once upon a time this game was all about sneaky back-door bandwagons like that. This time, though, people such as Mig are shocked that anyone "could even conceive of such a twisted idea as a sneaky backdoor anti-FF Bandwagon!"
In fact, sneakiness and anti-FF votes in general was frowned on during the last Round. Beastly knew how little chance he had when he voted against IX, as the opening quote suggests, but while most people found the idea so laughable they just ignored it, Aether wanted him to know that "I see your sneaky ploy Beast man" and countered it with his Immunity vote.
As if to prove how thing should be done in this enlightened age, the successful bandwagon operated not under the cover of darkness but out in the open. Just how BZero swayed everyone to his side, after receiving no support last time out and still not saying a word, does however remain a mystery. Before we investigate though, let us first bid adieu, auf wiedersehen, gesundheit, and farewell to…
Odin Sphere
Tales of Symphonia
Fallout 3
Persona 4
World of Warcraft
Tales of Vesperia
Valkyrie Profile: Lenneth
Star Ocean: Til the End of Time
Eternal Sonata
Golden Sun: The Lost Age
That was the result of Round Ten, so let’s take a gander at
The Predictions
Which game will be evicted in Round 10?
One person predicted that one correctly and their name is Mig. Continue to be amazed, my friend, as you take the lead…
Aether - 3
BZero – 2
Dedrus - 1
Lord DB - 2
Mig - 5
Not Miko - 3
Roger - 4
Sioux – 2
It must be about time for us to dash back to the last Question – “We're halfway through, so what has been the biggest surprise so far?”
For Ridley it was “The fact that Eternal Sonata lost. Those that voted against it, you're off my Christmas card list”, a sentiment perhaps shared by Sam whose “biggest surprise so far was discovering how many people underestimate the awesomeness of Eternal Sonata, it is my love child.”
For Dedrus it was the opposite, as he was surprise “that Eternal Sonata lasted so long" though he was also shocked "that World of Warcraft took a severe beating =P”, which Roger definitely agreed with because for him it was “That World of Warcraft got dicked on so early on.”
Meanwhile, for Magus the “biggest surprise was the amount of JRPGs that made the final cut. 7 Have been voted out and 7 still remain!”, which Lord DB agreed with in essence because he was taken aback by “the lack of WRPGs on the current list... there are only two”, in addition to being surprised "that Tales of Symphonia left the game so early. I thought it would last a bit longer seeing as there are several people here who liked it."
As for Sioux, well, as always, his response really deserves to be seen in its entirety, as he gave an in-depth assessment of the game so far, so check it out here (http://www.uffsite.net/forums/showpost.php?p=279678&postcount=12).
Unless I am very much mistaken, it is usually around this time that we check out the new
Question of the Round
What is the plot of your original RPG?
Back to your creations – some of you have told us the plot already, so you an either copy and paste what you said before or take this chance to change it.
Yet again, no Miscellaneous Business, so here is your list;
Chrono Trigger DS
Dragon Age: Origins
Final Fantasy IX
Final Fantasy XII
Golden Sun
Kingdom Hearts 2
Knights of the Old Republic
Lost Odyssey
Mass Effect
And as was written in the ancient scrolls of years gone by, "trust me - a person who is nice to you but rude to the waiter is not a nice person!"
