2005 NPC Tournament winner revealed!

[Miriel]

To all you silly people who've never played FFXI before this is Lion:



She is the daughter of a Pirate King. A PIRATE KING! She swashes and buckles. Y'all should vote for her.

Some close ones, some runaways in round 1.

Here's round 2:

1. Golbez (IV) vs 9. Princess Sara (IX)
Golbez made quick work of Arylon 10-2, while Princess Sara knocked out Llednar 7-4. This is a good matchup of crazy old school FF outfits. Both of them would feel at home in a goth club.

12. Dr Unne (I) vs 13. Fujin (VIII)
Both underdogs won the first round, with Dr Unne edging out Quan 7-6 and Fujin crushing Lion 9-3. I'm sure they will produce an exciting round 2 matchup.

11. Erin (IX) vs 14. Yang's Wife (IV)
Another pair of upsets as Erin barely defeats Buddy 6-5 and Yang's Wife thoroughly embarrasses Vormav 9-3. Yang's Wife is more popular and also more silly, but Erin has that oglop magic and a sailor suit.

7. Rufus (VII) vs Jecht (X)
Rufus flipped Guido on his shell and won 8-4. He'll face a tough challenge in Jecht who easily dispatched Katarin 10-2.

Let's see...

Golbez, Dr Unne, Erin, and Rufus.

[TheSpoonyBard]

Sara, Fujin, Erin, Rufus.

[NeoCracker]

I say Golbez, Dr. Unne, YAngs wife and Jecht,

I vote for Unne not because i like him, but because i dislike eight.

[Del Murder]

I am upset that Yang's Wife is losing.

[eestlinc]

Rufus is just going to win this bracket anyway.

[Takara]

I am upset that Yang's Wife is losing too.

[ehsteve]

I voted for her...

[eestlinc]

you have twelve hours or so until I break the tie.

[eestlinc]

We had some close battles and now we have four who have emerged to battle out in the next round of Bracket C:

1. Golbez (IV) vs 12. Dr Unne (I)
Golbez handles the firecracker Princess Sara 10-5 to move on and face the underdoctor himself, Dr Unne, who barely eked out a victory over Fujin 7-6. Go moon man!

11. Erin (IX) vs 7. Rufus (VII)
Erin slid past the late surge of Yang's Wife for a 7-6 victory. Her reward is a matchup with the President of ShinRa himself, ol boy Rufus, fresh off his 12-6 trouncing of Jecht . FF7 characters seem to have the upper hand in the tournament this year. Can Erin stem the tide?

[Masamune·1600]

Golbez-Dr Unne makes for a difficult choice. I'll go with Golbez.

Rufus is an easy choice for the other match.

[eestlinc]

man, Rufus sucks.

[Del Murder]

I like his theme song.

[Takara]

Have now lost faith in humanity. Yang's Wife has lost.

Golbez better kick Rufus' ass and Meteo him from the surface of the planet in the finals.
