TLS Community Playthrough 2017 - Voting

[ForceStealer]

I don't think so, I think it went the same way as this XII stuff. Anticipation for the remaster had people wanting to play X, other people said "wait for the remaster!" And then everyone just kinda played it on their own, haha.

Still, I'm surprised by the sudden comeback

 

[Strangelove]

some of us never finished the remaster, thank you very much

 

[Fangu]

^ this

then again I never finished the original mwa ha ha

 

[Flintlock]

Damn this is close; four games within one vote of each other. Though does X technically have nine votes now thanks to Fangu's addition? And what is the tie-breaking mechanism?

A second voting round that lasts for five days with only a single vote option. Though if X and X-2 tie I'll add the option of playing both (since the remaster exists).

 

[Monterosa]

Stuck in my vote for X and Tactics! Won't be able to join till after Chinese New Year but I'll try to catch up.

 

[Joker]

A TIE

A TIE

Not quite. X is still +1 because a few pages back somebody added a vote to it.

 

[ForceStealer]

It warms my heart to see Tactics, and especially Xenosaga perform so well. I knew I liked you guys

Assuming X is the winner, I shall take the opportunity to try the Expert Sphere Grid.

I want a Tactics win so baaadly

 

[Jason Tandro]

I want a Tactics win so baaadly

If I'm being honest with myself I kind of do too. I've never actually beaten the game alas, and listening to the soundtrack recently I feel like I'd be willing to give it another go.

So I am going to +1 Tactics (an after vote +1 similar to what happened with X) meaning Tactics and X are now TIED. If need be there will be a tiebreaker round.

 

[Claymore]

^ This.

Please ... someone else vote for Tactics.

 

[Jason Tandro]

I guess I ninja'd you Claymore. It's now tied and will at least be heading to a tie-breaker unless one more person votes either for X or Tactics.

On that note, 24 hours left to vote people. Can I get a Tactics expert to volunteer to set the chapters for the game?

 

[Fangu]

I withdraw my (not yet added to poll) vote from X

Tactics is now in the lead with 1 vote

 

[Flintlock]

The election is rigged!

Anyway, I think the poll closed before you withdrew your extra vote.

FAAAAACK I MESSED UP THE DATE.

At this point the only fair thing to do is to go into a tiebreaker round.

Yes as Tactics started doing better, I started thinking about how this will be a bit trickier than with traditional FF games. But I volunteer, should it be necessary.

 

[Joker]

I'll take the lead if you don't, Force!

sfklsdfjlskfjs I'M SO FUCKING EXCITED YOU GUYS SQUEAL

also which version of the game will we be playing? og FFT and War of the Lions are different enough for it to be worth asking

 

[Jason Tandro]

I feel because of it being an off shoot game we should let people play either version. Yes I know there are significant differences but I don't want to exclude somebody because they only have War of the Lions.

 

[ForceStealer]

Yeah I'll outline the differences to both and make both available.

 

[Jason Tandro]

Thank you for tackling this for me, Force! Any other nominee I'd be goof for but this will be my first time clearing Tactics lol!

 

[Flintlock]

You're a goof anyway, JT.

Y'all talking like Tactics has already been chosen though!

 

[ForceStealer]

I've been specifically trying to avoid doing that, but people keep talking/asking about it

As I said before, I would happily take a X victory as an excuse to take the Expert Sphere Grid for a spin.
But it is exciting to think about how many people would be experiencing/potentially completing Tactics for the first time.

 

[Joker]

expert grid sucks sooooooo much

 

[ForceStealer]

lol, oh really? I have wondered if it was anything interesting besides just shuffling everyone's jobs around.
