Final Fantasy 25th Anniversary Ciddies
Final Fantasy Awards... with style!

As part of the Final Fantasy 25th Anniversary celebrations, Eyes on Final Fantasy decided to get some of the best members and artists to work together to create an awards event unlike anything you've seen before! This wasn't just a standard awards event where you vote and then someday someone tells you who won, and that's that... no, this event was created as an elaborate show within the Final Fantasy 'multiverse', and it's our delight to present the results to you. Please, follow the below links to find out who won what award, who sang what newly-created song while playing their guitar, who saves the day and more!

This event was created with the intention of saying a massive thankyou to Square-Enix and Final Fantasy. From the fans - all of us!

If you want the full version, including posts by members and Award Creatures, follow this link.
If you want the condensed version without any member comments/posts, follow this link.

Serah & Vanille are happy to welcome all you NPC's to the awards ceremony! Photographer: nicegal1

"Best Organisation" because you put so much effort in this event! You talked to us DA-Members got us all the information we needed, you always updated the data, so we always knew what to do,..... and then you were awake for over 20 hours to lead this event into it's perfection!
(sry for strange English^^)

Awww, thankyou, Memoire - this means a lot to me. [img]http://home.eyesonff.com/images/smilies/heart.gif[/img]

I've had something like five hours of sleep now, but couldn't force myself to sleep in. I'll probably have a nap later or just go to bed early tonight! Sorry to Del Murder for missing you in the speeches, and sorry to the audio team (Lockharted, Tifa's Boobs, Goldenboko) for missing that area of the credits. You've all been added in!

I feel like I have a hangover. Urgh...

Congrats to all those who helped organise this awesome ciddies, best by far and we've had some pretty good ciddies before.

Go team Eoff!

Heath - 12-16-2012, 02:19 PM
Excellent event, and one that I really enjoyed nominating, voting and predicting. The results were varied and quite a few surprises in there. Most of all, an excellent event as ever by BoB.

Pike - 12-16-2012, 02:31 PM
Some close ones in that tally. Love Uematsu's landslide though

Faris - 12-16-2012, 02:38 PM
Dang, look at those close calls and sweeps.

Fuzakeru - 12-16-2012, 02:38 PM
That was awesome-tastical!

Agent Proto - 12-16-2012, 03:20 PM
What an awesome event this was. Glad to be a part of it.

Formalhaut - 12-16-2012, 04:11 PM
Sorry I fell asleep just before best member! It was 4:00am in England, I just couldn't hold on. And boo for Balthier not winning. Nevermind.

What I'd like to know now is who wrote which award. They were enlightening and funny to no end!

Wait that sounded wrong

I'm happy with Cecil winning the Best Hero award. I wish Terra had the Best Character too. We don't have much main female heros besides her and Lightning.

Yep, as this final fantasy ends, another one will begin. Dang, I sounded like Cosmos from Dissidia.

I wrote Best Creature (Mog) and Best Character Story (Fighter & Black Mage... the one with the pics)

I wrote Nicest Character (Kimahri), Cutest Male (Ashe & Penelo), Best NPC (Balthier & Fran) and finally a last minute speech of Best Member (III Heroes).

Seriously, I didn't have alot of time for Best member! I wrote it like 2 hours or so before the start!

Faris - 12-16-2012, 04:27 PM
I wrote Barret & Tifa (MLT Be ~~Biggs~~ Wedge. They got the wrong list of nominees sent to 'em!), Cid & Jecht (Weirdest Character), Rikku & Yuna & Paine (Sexiest Male), and Faris & Lenna (Best Heroine).

Formalhaut - 12-16-2012, 04:29 PM
Oh Faris you wrote Cid & Jecht! Hilarious. Good job in making Cid a rather believable homophobe.

Goldenboko - 12-16-2012, 04:43 PM
I wrote too many to think off the top of my head

The Man - 12-16-2012, 04:44 PM
I'm going to be out for a lot of today (I have a date for starters) but I'll try to get the predictions tally done tonight or something if BoB or someone else doesn't get it done first.

Thanks to everyone involved in bringing this to life. It truly was a spectacular event.

Faris - 12-16-2012, 04:51 PM

Thank you I envisioned him as a very grumpy old bitter man.

I found it funny that the speech was the first of three references to "DRINK YER DAMN TEA" in a row for him.

Goldenboko - 12-16-2012, 05:01 PM
