Video Game Draft 2011: Round 11 Voting

[Suwako Moriya]

You either have three wishes to make or three votes. I'm assuming the latter in this case. Yeah, time to set up another poll real quick.

[Suwako Moriya]

Played The Game
Annie Eilenberg (Atelier Annie ~Alchemists of Sera Island~)
Quistis Trepe (Final Fantasy VIII)
Tio (Grandia II)
Cornet Espoir (Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure)
Lei-Lei/Hsien-ko (Vampire Savior)


Watched The Anime
Cordelia gi Randgriz (Valkyria Chronicles)


Potential Votes
Annie Eilenberg (Atelier Annie ~Alchemists of Sera Island~)
Cornet Espoir (Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure)
??????

Annie is definite due to her being the one I drafted. Plus, she's an Alchemist of awesome. Cornet is "love". As for the third, I need to refresh my memory on a few select characters, but a vague feeling is leaning me toward Tio right now.

[Draneor]

I went with Fuuko Eilenberg. Whatever feelings I once had for Quistis have long since dissipated.

[Jimmie M]

My votes for Round 11:

Ulala (Space Channel 5)
Quistis Trepe (Final Fantasy VIII)
Cornet Espoir (Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure)

[malazar]

I only voted for Ulala this round. There were a few other characters who were okay in games I played, but none of them really stuck out to me.

[Serial Experiments Nobue]

Ah, a difficult round indeed...

Candidates:
Cordelia
Quistis
Cornet
King of All Cosmos

Four candidates, so I am forced to choose one to eliminate. Cordelia is an instavote, because of Mamiko Noto power. The King of All Cosmos is also an instavote. For better or worse, it might be the tights. :knowitall: But it's more for his manner of speech and sense of humor.

So it's down to Cornet and Quistis. I think Cornet gets the nod because she reminds me of Saga Bergman. In fact, the entire game of Rhapsody reminds me of A Little Snow Fairy Sugar, despite their differences. Also, Cornet has the ability to vanquish her enemies with delicious baked goods and pastries.

[ilmaestro]

Hsien-ko and Ulala were easy votes... I guess Jill will do for third.

[cress2000]

Cloche is still my favorite Reyvateil not named Jakuri, and is an insta-vote.

Demi-Fiend for number 2 because he's the coolest-looking silent protagonist ever.

And Hsien-Ko wins the other default character design vote.

[HitokiriShadow]

Characters from Games I've Played
Cordelia gi Randgriz (Valkyria Chronicles)
Quistis Trepe (FF8)
Tio (Grandia II)
Cloche Leythal Pastalia (Ar Tonelico II)
Geno (Super Mario RPG)


Characters I Particularly Like
Cordelia gi Randgriz (Valkyria Chronicles)
Cloche Leythal Pastalia (Ar Tonelico II)

Votes
Cordelia gi Randgriz (Valkyria Chronicles)
Quistis Trepe (FF8)
Cloche Leythal Pastalia (Ar Tonelico II)

Well that was really easy. Cordelia is awesome and cute and Darcsen girls are hot (oh, and she's my draftee) and Cloche is so much love and is part of the best character relationship development I've ever seen, so those two would be top contenders in any round. I don't care about Geno and I don't remember Tio at all, so Quistis gets my last vote by default.

[Classical]

There's only one character I strongly like in this round and that's my pick Demi-Fiend. I don't dislike Quistis, but I don't like her enough to give her a vote, so she's out of the picture. The only remaining candidates I can choose are Daisy and Geno, and I like them enough to give them my other two votes.

[Buckeye]

Votes are in. They are Quistis, Hsien-Ko, and Master Chief, all from games I had played.

[Suwako Moriya]

Votes
Annie Eilenberg (Atelier Annie ~Alchemists of Sera Island~)
Cornet Espoir (Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure)
Tio (Grandia II)

In the end, I had to go with Tio. Sure, it's been awhile, but if there's one thing I remember, it's her being my favorite of the girls in the game. Yeah, that design appeals to me. And it's not like she had much competition.

In terms of characters that I'm actually familiar with. Sure, Cloche is hot from what I've seen of images of her, but I haven't actually played Ar Tonelico 2. Just an example.

Now, I just need to decide who to vote for in round 12 later....

[Fencedude]

Would conceivably vote for:

Annie Eilenberg (Atelier Annie ~Alchemists of Sera Island~)
Cordelia gi Randgriz (Valkyria Chronicles)
Quistis Trepe (Final Fantasy VIII)
Tio (Grandia II)
Princess Daisy (Mario Kart Wii)
Cloche Leythal Pastalia (Ar tonelico II: Melody of Metafalica)
Rue (Magna Carta 2)

Blah blah

Top 5:

Annie Eilenberg
Cordelia gi Randgriz
Tio
Chroche Latel Pastalie
Rue

Pretty easy to narrow down overall

Votes:

Cordelia gi Randgriz
Chroche Latel Pastalie
Rue

Rue is, of course, my vote. And is the awesome lightning ninja from Magna Carta 2. Cordelia is awesome sexy Darcsen, and Chroche is one half of one of the best character dynamics in all of Video Gamedom.

So yeah.

[something]

Have played the game:
Tio (Grandia II)
Geno (Super Mario RPG: Legend of the Seven Stars)

Votes:
Tio (Grandia II)
Cloche Leythal Pastalia (Ar tonelico II: Melody of Metafalica)
Cornet Espoir (Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure)

1) I only sort of remember her but she looks nice and I played the game, I guess.
2) Kinda hot. And fanart was pushing a yuri pairing with her.
3) Process of elimination?

Man you guys picked a lot of characters with minimal fanart. That third vote was hard. Then, somehow, you put three really easy votes in the next round.

[something]

Votes:
Tio (Grandia II)
Cloche Leythal Pastalia (Ar tonelico II: Melody of Metafalica)
Cornet Espoir (Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure)

Ah what the crap, I clicked Cordelia when voting instead of Cloche. Too many Cs! Please adjust count if possible, if not, no big deal.

[Fencedude]

2) Kinda hot. And fanart was pushing a yuri pairing with her.


Bonus Sawashiro Miyuki as well.

And yes, gayer than a sack of rainbows.

[Suwako Moriya]

Votes:
Tio (Grandia II)
Cloche Leythal Pastalia (Ar tonelico II: Melody of Metafalica)
Cornet Espoir (Rhapsody: A Musical Adventure)

Ah what the crap, I clicked Cordelia when voting instead of Cloche. Too many Cs! Please adjust count if possible, if not, no big deal.

I made the adjustment for myself when I clicked on the wrong person in an earlier round, so it's only fair to make the adjustment for you.

In general, I can do adjustments. So long as they're clearly based on correcting mistakes. As opposed to a person randomly changing their mind.

[Suwako Moriya]

2) Kinda hot. And fanart was pushing a yuri pairing with her.


Bonus Sawashiro Miyuki as well.

And yes, gayer than a sack of rainbows.

I have to admit that's an impressive resume.

[Suwako Moriya]

So in the end, Quistis whips everyone.

Vote counting and round 13 will have to wait.

Weather is annoying.

[Jaynin]

Wow, nice. I'm actually a bit surprised. Thanks for the Quistis votes.
Both my whip bearers ended up doing well.

[Classical]

Congrats to Jaynin for the victory!

Thank you to everyone who voted for Demi-Fiend. I'm glad he managed to get some votes as I didn't think he'd get any ones aside from mine.

[Jimmie M]

Congrats to Jaynin on winning the round!
Ulala finished with 7 votes-A nice showing for her. Thanks to everyone who voted for her!

[Nosredna]

Congrats Jaynin!

Thanks to everyone who voted for Princess Daisy!

[Betenoire]

Congrats Jaynin.

And thanks to those who voted for Cornet, though those who didn't may be flattened by a large stack of pancakes as she holds a grudge. :catgirl:

[ilmaestro]

Slightly surprised to see that that many people care about Quistis, guess the power of FF is never to be underestimated!

Lei-lei did better than I was expecting, though. ^_^

[Serial Experiments Nobue]

And thanks to those who voted for Cornett, though those who didn't make be flattened by a large stack of pancakes as she holds a grudge. :catgirl:

This is by far one of my favorite things about Rhapsody. I'd even go so far as to say it was a deciding factor in my deciding to get the game in the first place.

Congrats on nearly securing a podium finish, Cornet!
