Round 2 - There can be only one

[Loony BoB]

Is this a first pin = win, or an elimination match, Mulley? Is this the last round?

It's up to you.

In that case, it's an elimination match. I'd say Cyan and Umaro have been eliminated in this round as they're both at the bottom. But I'm not sure if you meant for me to decide whether or not this is the final round or if you were just suggesting that I imagine how this would all play out in my head.

Im voting with the expressed intention of seeing a tie breaker thread

[Loony BoB]

Sabin edges it.

[Flying Mullet]

Well there you have it, Sabin pulls the victory at the last minute, in true dramatic fashion. What an edge-of-your-seat nail-biter.

[blackmage_nuke]

NOOOOO. Shouldnt have voted

[chionos]

NOOOOO. Shouldnt have voted

You dirty dirty ho.

[Loony BoB]

To be fair, there is a significant amount of backing for Sabin who hadn't shown up yet, and if they did I'm sure it would have been a landslide victory.

I can only assume that Sabin suplex'ed the cage with Terra in it to score the final blow.

[chionos]

Sabin cheated. It's the only conclusion I can accept. Sabin the cheating cheater cheated. I don't know how yet, but I will figure it out.

[The Man]

A cage match in the real world can't have magic, because it doesn't exist. There is no reason to assume that a cage match in FFVI's world would disallow characters from using their strengths unless explicitly stated as such. And, as stated, one Ultima from Terra and everyone else in the match is wiped out.

A cage match in the real world can't have magic, because it doesn't exist.

And we can't have those characters fighting in the cage match in the real world, because they do not exist.

[Loony BoB]

I'm pretty sure that magic would not be allowed in a wrestling match because magic is not based on physical contact. It would be like arguing that you should be allowed to use guns in a wrestling match in our world. The word is 'wrestling', and it's got a pretty clear definition. You're just hung up on this 'FFVI statistics and gear and magic battle' thing rather than a cage match.

Either way, the correct individual won.

[theman]A cage match in the real world can't have magic, because it doesn't exist.

And we can't have those characters fighting in the cage match in the real world, because they do not exist.

And we didn't really vote on this poll because we don't exist.
And therefore Sabin didn't really win. :colbertsquared:

[The Man]

A lot of Sabin's Blitz moves aren't based on physical contact either. Furthermore, if you're going to throw out magic because "it's too much like guns", then you also need to throw out weapons because those wouldn't be allowed in real-world wrestling matches either, and Gau and Umaro are arguably stronger with bare hands than Sabin (especially Gau, who could just use Catscratch to eliminate the competition).

Anyway, Mulley explicitly said the match is up to our own interpretation of how it would be staged, so your interpretation of the rules is no more valid than anyone else's.
