I just counted the votes in the four groups, so we now have eight characters who will contest the knock-out rounds. Here is the bracket:

Code: 
Quarter-final 1
CLOUD vs CELES

                    Semi-final 1
                    Winner QF1 vs Winner QF2
                
Quarter-final 2
KAIN vs VIVI

                                                    Final
                                                    Winner SF1 vs Winner SF2
                                                    
Quarter-final 3
AERITH vs LIGHTNING

                    Semi-final 2
                    Winner QF3 vs Winner QF4
                
Quarter-final 4
TIFA vs FANG

                                                    Third place play-off
                                                    Loser SF1 vs Loser SF2

The quarter-finals will take place over the next two weeks. I'll be putting the first one up on Monday Tuesday (sorry, too busy today). In case you're wondering about the match-ups, the winner with the most votes was paired with the runner-up with the least votes, and so on, like a conventional seeding system. Lightning and Vivi were tied for votes, but Vivi was considered to have the better result, as he had a higher percentage of votes in his group.

The voting will be public from now on, so you'll be able to see everyone's votes. When this is all done, I'd like to make a report for the front page, and it would be great if I could include some quotes from people saying why they voted for certain characters. With that in mind, I'd really appreciate it if you gave some reasoned explanations for your votes in the respective threads. Thanks :)

Yikes, Celes vs Cloud and Aerith vx Lightning? I hope it's Celes, but I have a strong feeling Cloud is going to end up winning.

Yep, Cloud, Tifa, and Aerith will be the last ones standing. As someone said before, this site IS called THELIFESTREAM. xDD

Easy choice for me when it's older FF VS new FF. Old FF characters have captured my heart where as the new ones are very boring in comparison. (As much as I do like some of them)

Even if this were a general FF forum, the FFVII cast would still dominate the polls. It's no different to saimoe really--the characters from the most popular shows win because more people are familiar with them and ergo there are more people voting for them out because they don't know anything about the other options.

Last year, Madoka characters all performed extremely well because even people with a passing interest in anime would have watched Madoka last year, and without perhaps watching *cough* strike witches or any of the other titles for that matter. They can't vote for anyone else and so the casually familiar characters get all the glory, because there are no restrictions on who can vote and, as Flintlock said, no way to enforce such restrictions. Just gotta deal.
