16-bit semifinals results:

Cloud - ||||\|||| 9
Cecil - ||||\| 6

Aeris - |||| 4
Rikku - ||||\||| 8

Now here is the anticipated finals of the 16-bit Division.

Cloud (VII) vs. Rikku (X-2)
Rikku has surprised many with her popularity and stolen matches from some powerhouses, but she faces her toughest opponent in the heavily favored Cloud. Will she find the right dress to take down Cloud before he introduces her to his Knights of the Round buddies? Only one of these blodies can make it to the Final Four.

I'm sooo tempted to vote for Rikku just because...

[Del Murder]

I'm seriously unable to figure out why anyone would like Rikku, unless they're just horny, in which case that's gross. There is really no argument that can persuade me that she is stronger then Cloud, especially since this is X-2 Rikku, a much weaker version.

[Sefie1999AD]

I don't think people are voting for Rikku because she's strong or weak. Many of them are voting for her because they want to mess around with Cloud and make him lose. You know, just like how almost everyone wanted Strago to lose a few rounds ago.

And BTW, I actually haven't voted yet.

[Flying Mullet]

I didn't want Cloud to advance this far in the first place. So I'm voting against Cloud, not for Rikku.

[escobert]

I'm voting for Cloud since everyone hates him so much. I really dont get it either.... what's so bad about him?

[Del Murder]

A lot of people don't like Cloud because he is popular and it isn't cool to like things that are popular. What people don't realize is that doing this is actually what is popular nowadays and so the people who act this way are actually hypocrites and accomplishing nothing.

[Flying Mullet]

I don't like Cloud because he doesn't drink Sprite. Duh! :rolleyes2

[escobert]

Oh ok now I see why its not cool to be cool to liek cloud

[The Man]

It shames me that Cloud has advanced this far in the tournament, and I wasn't here to vote against him to stop it.

[Del Murder]

You had your chance, that match was a tie for most of yesterday and all day today. I waited patiently for someone to come a break it and finally we got another vote for Cloud...which brings me to the results and winner of the 16-bit Division:

Cloud - ||||\||| 8
Rikku - ||||\|| 7

Like I said this was a fierce battle! Rikku's thief speed prevented Cloud from using some of his better attacks, but she couldn't be able to find the offense to bring him down. After a long break with no action Cloud finally achieved Limit Break and took her down with a powerful Omnislash. He advances to the Final Four which starts now!

Final Four matchups:

Celes (VI) vs. Cloud (VII)
We will finally see who is the better C in this battle of very strong characters. The former general might be able to stop most of Cloud's magic with Runic, but can she avoid the menacing Omnislash? Both are skilled with swords, as this battle pits Atma Weapon versus Ultima Weapon. Which blade wielder will stand the test and advance to the finals?

Locke (VI) vs. Auron (X)
The thief has another challenge before him in the mighty guardian Auron. Both are great physical attackers, but only one can win. Will it be the speedy Locke or the enduring Auron? Locke better be prepared for Auron's overdrive, but the warrior better not let his guard down before his mighty Masamune is captured.

[Strider]

I think you know who I voted for. Mwaha.
