WINNER!
Sanctuary
12 to 9
When you walk away you don't hear me say that there's a new land where fears and lies melt away. Amazing songs... plus... they would make amazing Joint Struggle contestants. This fight was supposed to be done if the fights were fixed for the first round. WINNER!
Sanctuary
12 to 9

Votes for Sanctuary

  1. Sanctuary after the battle - epic. Also, this is the first song from which I calqued (yes, calqued) a drumbeat. I'm going for this. TROISNYX   AMDG 02:55, August 1, 2010 (UTC)
  2. After the Battle. End of story... KKDf51ce887-d120-4b89-8cff-afbff03976aa_zps7f114bcc.png
  3. Love both of the songs, but to be honest this wasn't a tough choice.LapisLazuliScarab09:38, August 1, 2010 (UTC)
  4. Wow. Tough choice, but I guess after the battle. Org13left.png Organization13 Org13right.png 09:40, August 1, 2010 (UTC)
  5. I really like the Remix of Simple & Clean, but Sanctuary is such an awesome song. Pawprintorange.png Dan - Don't Blink! Pawprintblue2.png 09:41, August 1, 2010 (UTC)
  6. I just like the sound of this one better{{User:Memorized} 09:45, August 1,2010 (UTC)
  7. Only becuase it has that epic rock solo in the middle, which is featured as Sora and Riku run up the stairs in Castle Oblivion, fighting Ansem and Marluxia. - EternalNothingnessXIII 16:44, August 1, 2010 (UTC)
  8. The instrumentation on this one is just so well done. Not to mention the backwards lines and the lyrics (both versions). Very epic. BebopKate 17:33, August 1, 2010 (UTC)
  9. Enx is right that was a good part and i like the remix of this so it gets my vote.--ZACH 21:03, August 1, 2010 (UTC)
  10. Tough choice but I'd have to say Sanctuary. --stitchcharmsmall.pngAxel Lives On stitchcharmsmall.png 21:37, August 1, 2010 (UTC)
  11. They're both awesome songs but Sanctuary just takes the cake. It's got such a catchy beat and I just love it that much more!! ^_^ Plus the opening sequence has much more interesting and overall better looking CGI graphics.User:ToyaLynk/Sig
  12. Just a matter of personal taste, and I like this one better. --JFH_Sig_zpsfaa1e7d5.jpg 06:51, August 2, 2010 (UTC)

Votes for Simple & Clean

  1. Well, what can I say? Simple and Clean makes for a hell of an intro; both the remix and original are great to listen to. Why do you think it was used for the intro of so many games? maggosh 03:03, August 1, 2010 (UTC)
  2. Far better instrumental. --DTN   17:09, August 1, 2010 (UTC)
  3. So difficult. Both songs are amazing, but I have to agree with DTN on this one. The instrumental version takes more time with the melody. Although I don't like the remix of this one. I don't know why. KRCCFNF is tired of being STEPPED ON.
  4. Simple and Clean. It was a tough choice, but I chose this for the same reasons as maggosh.   Light and dark File:Fresh Breeze KHBBS.png 00:14, August 2, 2010 (UTC)
  5. Simple and clean coming fresh with a breeze! :} [Ѧüя◎ґ]
  6. I like'em both but I can connect with the feelings of S&C more deeply.User:Redeemer & Destroyer/Sig17:12, August 2, 2010 (UTC)
  7. A tough one, but I'm going for Simple and Clean. It just seems like the main theme for the series. The Yoshiman 97 03:31, August 5, 2010 (UTC)
  8. Instrumentals for the win! I remember singing this song with my best friend around our elementary school during recess. XD--Xion4ever 12:20, August 5, 2010 (UTC)
  9. You're GIVing Meeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee...too many THIngs. Lately.Glorious CHAOS! 18:21, August 6, 2010 (UTC)

Keyblade Graveyard

The coding of this table needs to be fixed, raw code is everywhere and needs to be changed to a simple template with variables for the subjects in opposition. Also, if someone would figure out how to get those images/music players centered in their columns, that would be class. Thanks! --DTN   05:08, August 1, 2010 (UTC)

Workin' on it, Doorsey. KKDf51ce887-d120-4b89-8cff-afbff03976aa_zps7f114bcc.png

Okay, I saw the template. It's well done so far, except that the Listen template spans over four rows in the table. What if we centre-aligned those rows alone ? Maybe that'll help ? TROISNYX   AMDG 02:29, August 2, 2010 (UTC)
Media template won't work in it, sorry. Also, when using the template, you absolutely have to use the SUBST: tag. --DTN   02:50, August 2, 2010 (UTC)
That we know - so now that leaves us with only one option : Copy the entire code of Listen and stuff it into the template if needed. Or not ? TROISNYX   AMDG 03:12, August 2, 2010 (UTC)
The Media template works.. it just don't get on the center. The question is, will we use ugly but usefull un-centered Media Templates or we will use centered but pontless albun covers?User:Redeemer & Destroyer/Sig01:32, August 5, 2010 (UTC)

Is it possible to incorporate both ? TROISNYX   AMDG 07:29, August 7, 2010 (UTC)

Media Templates with images? That's easy. But again... it won't stay in the center.User:Redeemer & Destroyer/Sig15:36, August 7, 2010 (UTC)

Strange coding is strange. TROISNYX   AMDG 15:45, August 7, 2010 (UTC)

Vote for Riku

  1. Again, my vote goes here. I'm unsure about whether or not I'm on time for this, so if I'm not, feel free to remove it.--ShadowXemnas Nothingness...is...ETERNAL!!! 16:22, July 26, 2010 (UTC)

Round 1, Week 1: Sora v. Riku

Versus2.png
WINNER!
Tie
10 to 10
What a way to begin our proceedings! A fight that has been around almost as long as Kingdom Hearts itself. Who will win? The Keyblade Master by "accident" fated to open the Door to Light? Or the Keyblade Master who fell to Darkness and walks the path to Dawn? WINNER!
Tie
10 to 10

Votes for Sora

  1. Nuhu, Sora is the best and always will be.User:Redeemer & Destroyer/Sig01:59, July 11, 2010 (UTC)
  2. I have always faved Riku as a protagonist because of his storyline. But where Keyblade wielding is concerned, Sora was meant to be saved in the first Kingdom Hearts. Also, no one else pulls off the silly side better than he does. Sora gets my vote. TROISNYX   AMDG 02:08, July 11, 2010 (UTC)
  3. Sora was a little grating early in the series, but he improved, and he took down nearly the entire Organization, plus Ansem and all the Disney and FF villains. Point, Sora.LapisLazuliScarab03:52, July 11, 2010 (UTC)
  4. Sora's always upbeat and optimistic, and manages to make everyone around him smile. And let's not forget that he's the only person that's managed to survive being turned into a Heartless. Without Sora, Xehanort would have destroyed the Universe ten times over, don't you think?
    Pawprintorange.png Dan - Don't Blink! Pawprintblue2.png 11:07, July 11, 2010 (UTC)
  5. Duel welding vs. dark powers...however, it all comes down to what the series is all about: heart. And Sora's got it in spades. BebopKate 20:25, July 11, 2010 (UTC)
  6. Sora is always optimistic, makes everyone smile, doesn't give in, and doesn't break promises. He's much stronger than Riku in body, mind, heart, and light in general. Sora never let the darkness control him, but Riku let it easily. Plus Sora's destined for great things, and Riku's just there backing him up. User:FuronXXXX/Sig 10:44, July 11, 2010 (UTC)
  7. Sora for the win Riku's story only has the words Darkness in it and Sora pawns Riku every time.   Wolf  
  8. I'm voting for Sora here, I just never really liked Riku. Danjam 03:05, July 15, 2010 (UTC)
  9. I definitely vote for Sora. - LevL 16:35, July 15, 2010 (UTC)
  10. One word: Roxas. Without Sora, there is no Roxas. No Roxas = very bad.--Xion4ever 17:56, July 15, 2010 (UTC

Votes for Riku

  1. Durr, of course I'm voting for Riku. Riku>Sora, any day. KKDf51ce887-d120-4b89-8cff-afbff03976aa_zps7f114bcc.png
  2. Riku is SUPERIOR -- LegoAlchemist  01:59, July 11, 2010 (UTC)
  3. Hell yeah! Sora, you are the weakest link, goodbye. [Ѧüя◎ґ]
  4. Embrace the Darkness. That's what my mom used to say... Just kidding. One must see that Riku is superior in intellect as well as strength. Plus, he was chosen to be a Keyblade master before Sora. KRCCFNF is tired of being STEPPED ON.
  5. I don't hate Sora, but... it's Riku. --JFH_Sig_zpsfaa1e7d5.jpg 02:24, July 13, 2010 (UTC)
  6. Riku can control darkness but is still light and he can look like Ansem!Org13left.png Organization13 Org13right.png 09:56, July 13, 2010 (UTC)
  7. Riku's been my favorite character in the Kingdom Hearts series since I first played CoM, my first KH game. - EternalNothingnessXIII 14:23, July 13, 2010 (UTC)
  8. Simply because his growth in power and maturity and because donald and goofy aren't here to back sora up --ShadowsTwilight 20:10, July 13, 2010 (UTC)
  9. I vote for Riku.--Samoth 05:51, July 15, 2010 (UTC)
  10. Riku knows how to wield both Darkness and Light, giving him balance. Plus, he has his own personal demon in Ansem the Dark, and he conquered him. Also, it gets a little old playing as Sora all the time.--ShadowXemnas Nothingness...is...ETERNAL!!! 16:22, July 15, 2010 (UTC)

Keyblade Graveyard

The fight has changed a lot since its first release after Kingdom Hearts. I'm actually not surprised. TROISNYX   AMDG 03:23, July 11, 2010 (UTC)

What do you mean by that, Trois? KKDf51ce887-d120-4b89-8cff-afbff03976aa_zps7f114bcc.png

Given the storyline additions, and how Nomura worked hard to clear Riku's name from post-Kingdom Hearts, I'm actually not surprised at what's gonna be the outcome. I admit that my choice was a difficult one. TROISNYX   AMDG 03:30, July 11, 2010 (UTC)

Having all the KH game to analyse we indeed see that Riku got a lot of Good Boy Stars after the first Kingdom Hearts. And because of that Sora got a little to vanilla.User:Redeemer & Destroyer/Sig03:32, July 11, 2010 (UTC)

The key : always take the road less taken. ;-) They should also take time to see the beta trailer of KH1 before anything. TROISNYX   AMDG 03:34, July 11, 2010 (UTC)

I just like Riku 'cause I can relate to him a lot more than Sora. KKDf51ce887-d120-4b89-8cff-afbff03976aa_zps7f114bcc.png
For me it is the other way around.User:Redeemer & Destroyer/Sig03:37, July 11, 2010 (UTC)

I saw the beta... Riku sure looked evil, more evil them Ansem Seeker of Darkness.User:Redeemer & Destroyer/Sig03:43, July 11, 2010 (UTC)

The beta is scary, eh ? But that's partly owing to the fact that all the renders were crude in the beta stage ; even Sora's and Kairi's. Donald and Goofy looked like they could fit into a DS more than a PS2. Also, it'd have been more natural if there were boxes in the road leading from the 2nd to the 3rd District, like in the beta. TROISNYX   AMDG 09:40, July 11, 2010 (UTC)
Scary is not enough to describe Kairi's Exorcist face. Those eyes were looking inside my soul! An interesting note: the slogan is "You are the one who will open the door." and through the whole game Sora only closes things. Ironic.User:Redeemer & Destroyer/Sig16:48, July 11, 2010 (UTC)
How do you get to the beta? is there still some type of disc or downoad or what? User:Uther sablemane
It's the beta trailer. Not the beta version of the game.User:Redeemer & Destroyer/Sig20:15, July 11, 2010 (UTC)
The slogan still remains ; nevertheless, SoRiKa's faces were scary indeed. TROISNYX   AMDG 00:07, July 12, 2010 (UTC)

Uum, voters for Sora? Could you please give less... well, large explanations? They're huge, and very misleading... we don't need a paragraph as to why you want Sora to win. Don't the rules ban that anyway? -- LegoAlchemist  00:03, July 13, 2010 (UTC)

After this batlle that rule shall be modified to the max of three line per vote.User:Redeemer & Destroyer/Sig00:07, July 13, 2010 (UTC)
How many lines you type isn't exactly easy to moderate. Just saying. Can't we just agree to give brief explanations, or none, and have your parograph in an edit summery? Saves space, if you ask me. -- LegoAlchemist  00:09, July 13, 2010 (UTC)
Indeed, controling the line isn't easy. A vote like Kate's is perfect. Explains the reason you voted in few words. We have the Graveyard especially for the comments.User:Redeemer & Destroyer/Sig00:14, July 13, 2010 (UTC)

I say 1 sentence. anything else gets removed by one of us. KKDf51ce887-d120-4b89-8cff-afbff03976aa_zps7f114bcc.png

Too harsh, KKD.User:Redeemer & Destroyer/Sig00:16, July 13, 2010 (UTC)
No, too frank. I agree. That, or two short ones. If people don't follow the rules, we have to do something. -- LegoAlchemist  00:19, July 13, 2010 (UTC)
no, we don't remove the vote. We take out whatever wasn't in the first sentence. KKDf51ce887-d120-4b89-8cff-afbff03976aa_zps7f114bcc.png

Awesome idea guys! Oh,how the sea calls 15:06, July 13, 2010 (UTC)


Seriously, are the rules not clear enough? Why can't users just read the rules? Does blinking text really not catch anyone's attention? -- LegoAlchemist  19:13, July 13, 2010 (UTC)

Actually Lego, the blinking doesn't work for me ;) But otherwise, I agree, rules need to be read. By everyone. Pawprintorange.png Dan - Don't Blink! Pawprintblue2.png 19:16, July 13, 2010 (UTC)
If you ask me, I say all links to the arena link directly to the Rules. From the rules, there's a link to the voting page. I mean, seriously, this is getting ridiculous. -- LegoAlchemist  19:25, July 13, 2010 (UTC)
I think people refuse to "understand" the rules... EDIT: Lego, people ignore the rules here. In the rules page they would just look for the link without reading the rulesUser:Redeemer & Destroyer/Sig19:27, July 13, 2010 (UTC)

Okay, then by Dan36's suggestion, I'm putting a large and ugly usermessage telling people to read the rules. -- LegoAlchemist  19:52, July 13, 2010 (UTC) Whoa so Riku the winner!? Wonder who would battle next!?WingBlade

I know the next battles are coming up... and it's either going to be characters or elements aside of that. I have a feeling the next battle is Sanctuary v Simple and Clean... TROISNYX   AMDG 12:05, July 28, 2010 (UTC)
Speaking of those two songs, I wonder what will be featured in RE:coded?WingBlade12:17, July 28, 2010

I'm beginning to wonder that myself. Did SE/Disney land the copyright or is it still property of EMI ? Only time will tell. TROISNYX   AMDG 12:26, July 28, 2010 (UTC)
