Sign Up ~Final Fantastic Survivor~ (all fans of both FF & Survivor, this is your place!)

[Sandy]

[color=red]Some of you may know that I was the leader of the first Unofficial Otakuboards Survivor (which was The Freakshow). The second one was lead by Bent Metal, but to my knowledge, the thread died away. So, (un)officially, this is the third OB survivor, and I, Sage, have taken the lead again.[/color]

[color=orange]This time the competition combines Survivor to the Final Fantasy-series, so all of you who are interested in both of them, here's your chance![/color]

[color=gold]OB Survivor works pretty much like the tv-show: we have certain amount of contestants, who compete in tribes, and are evicted one by one. As the theme is Final Fantasy now, all events will occur in the various worlds of the series.[/color]

[color=green]Certain requirements have to be met before you can join as a player:
-you must take this even somewhat seriously, this is not just a playground where you can spoil other's fun
-you should know something about both Survivor and Final Fantasy-games, in order to keep you on track
-you will play a character from any of the FF-games
-NOTE: You CAN join even if you participated on the two other Survivors[/color]

[color=blue]About the character:
-he/she should be one of the main characters (not for example one of the soldiers in Junon in FF7)
-both goodies and baddies will do, so you can play Cloud as well as Sephiroth
-because the character's are already made up, you should act like your character, so choose one you think you know well enough
-any (main) character from FF-games 1 to 10 will do, IF you know him/her well enough, have a proper picture of him/her, and he/she isn't named CID (because I'm playing Cid - yes, ALL of them :D )[/color]

[color=purple]So, if you want to join, post in this thread:
-character's name (last name optional)
-from which FF-game the character is from
-his/her bio (meaning the backgrounds + what did s/he do in the game)
-A PROPER PICTURE![/color]

[color=deeppink]So, that's pretty much it. I expect that this will be as much fun as the first one, so don't be afraid to join in: i know what I'm doing! ;)

So, welcome to the Final Fantastic Survivor with your host Cid! The game will start asap.![/color]

EEEEEEEEEE!!!!! HAPPINESS!!!!!! (Heh, I hope this one lasts, unlike the unfortunate 2nd one. I was so upset when that faded out.)

*Ahem*

Methinks that if this takes off and does well, we should each get an avatar in the shape of our Character. Until we get voted off or whatnot. Whaddaya think?

[Sandy]

I was kind of thinking the same about the avatars, Gin. And I KNEW you'd be among the first ones to join in! ;)

Sakuramon, hope you got my reply on the pic-attachment. BTW, you can do like Ginny did: post the picture as an attachment, then copy the attachment-location with right-click and paste it to the reply, inside [img]-tags.

[Zerosaber]

What if you don't know how to post or Get pictures.

[COLOR=deeppink]Hope this starts soon. I'm very excited..Tehehe ::looks at Ginny's character sign-up:: Go figures...:)[/COLOR]

[GinnyLyn]

Don't worry, I'm pretty sure I can find avatars for everyone. I've already got a big set of FFX ones, ranging from the main people, to the villian, to some of the minors even.

*hopes to win one of these survivor things one of these days*
*hopes this one will last all the way through to the end, too*

[KittyLynn]

[COLOR=deeppink]::hopes with Ginny:: I will make sure I, as Rikku wil continue to bug Auron...;)[/COLOR]

[GinnyLyn]

*groans laughingly*

See attached, you silly Al Bhed, you.

Strange...I can't seem to find out where I put the animated Rikku Avatars I had. @_@

[Sakura]

Got it!!
Thanks Sage!
I hope this goes well.

[Sandy]

Well, we have three sign-ups now, so we'll have to wait for some time. I think ten players could be a good minimum.

[Zidargh]

[SIZE=1][COLOR=darkblue][B]Good, another Survivor series is in the works. I'll actually join this time, and this gives me a great chance to steal Ginny's bacon.

[color=red]To use the image, right click it, save it to your computer, then upload it in the avatar options. [/color]

[Zidargh]

[SIZE=1][COLOR=darkblue][B]Thanks Ginny, you sure put some effort into uploading them. When the Survivor series starts, I suppose we should put into our signatures something like ''Official FF Survivor Candidate: *Whoever you are in the Survivor*''

I don't know, but yes, thank you very much.[/B][/COLOR][/SIZE]

[Sandy]

I appreciate your great input to this game, Gin! :D

Don't forget that I'm going to play ALL the Cids, as the challenges occur in different worlds of the FF-games. The two tribes will have an own Airship, which they use as their base. I have yet to decide which ships I'll take, but the gameflow is figuring itself out in my head constantly. ;)

Oh, and Zidane and Draagul, welcome to the game! We now have... eh, 5 players. :bluesweat

PS. To the future joiners, please try to avoid the situation where all the characters are from just few games, like FF9 and FF10. Remember that there has been awesome characters throughout the history of the series. ;)

[KittyLynn]

[COLOR=deeppink]Thank you Ginny for the awsome Avatars. I'm going to upload mine now.[/COLOR]

[color=red][size=1][font=arial]Charachter: Squall Leonhart
Game: Final Fantasy VIII
Bio: Aspiring to become a SeeD, Squall Leonhart went to Balamb Garden at the age of 10. It was there he was instructed by Quistis Trepe and met his rival, Seifer Almasy, the only other student besides Squall to use a Gunblade, a sword with a gun for a handle; making the weapon extremely difficult to master.

Usually keeping to himself, Squall is seen by others as a brooding, uncaring jerk who only cares about himself. Having this image is just fine with him.

[KittyLynn]

[COLOR=hotpink]We should get this thing started. I can't wait any longer.

~Kitty

Now,also know as Rikku[/COLOR]

[GinnyLyn]

Let's see--we have seven people so far? (Not counting sage.)

Sakuramon=Freya (iX)
GinnyLyn=Auron (X)
calumon_luver=Rikku (X)
Zidane=Zidane (iX)
Draagul=Tidus (X)
JCBaggee=Squall (Viii)
Tasis=Cloud (Vii)

So we need three more, to make the tribes complete. And it should be empahsized that slacking on posting means you'll be ejected that much sooner. At least, that's my thought. Unofficial Survivor II died on me because the HOST stopped posting, not the people. (Sorry, sage!) But all participants should post regularly. I want to see this one to the end! :D

Another one for sage:

Tasis (in addition to the one you already have):

[color=red]Please remember to save the one(s) you want to your computer--I will need to clean my webspace out soon. [/color]

[Guest Zeh]

[color=003399]Heh, you can delete them then Gin, i've got like 30 odd Cloud gifs, including a few from Kingdom hearts. Thanks anyway though ^^;;

Hmm, i'll see who i can get to join. [/color]

[GinnyLyn]

I dunno, that Cloudris icon I just might keep. Heh.

[Zidargh]

[SIZE=1][COLOR=darkblue][B]OK, I have an announcement to make. From today (Monday) until the Thursday of this week, I'm in Los Angeles on a holiday. So please don't feel I'm never going to post but I just thought I'd let you know.[/B][/COLOR][/SIZE]

[Sandy]

Don't worry, Zid, apparently this WON'T start until later this week.

And Ginny, don't YOU worry: I pulled the OB Survivor 1 to end, so that's what I'm going to do this one as well. ;)

I've got plenty of constests figured out, plus some extra features, like the "Captain-system": both teams will have a captain elected democratically. The captain is in charge of everything the team does, AND in case of a tie-situation in the voting-off, HIS/HERS vote will decide. The captain will be re-elected in each COUNCIL, so s/he will stay if the team wins the contest.

Well, nobody understood anything, but anyways... :bluesweat
