Votes for Void Gear

 * 1) --Xabryn 01:41, October 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * 2) For teh Vanitas -- A Crono  of the Silver kind  01:47, October 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * 3) I prefer the real Void Gear, but this'll suffice.-- Random! to a point!  01:54, October 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * 4) I just like this one better. -- 02:00, October 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * 5) This one looks a bit better, besides it's stats are more powerful 17master 03:03, October 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * 6) vanitas is my favorite villain, so his keyblade gets extra awesome cool points, plus the monochrome makes it look even cooler --ShadowsTwilight 04:12, October 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * 7) I won't allow my favorite Keyblade to lose ! Besides, Void Gear is remotely useful, because it can be obtained earlier. — Nihil Perdere Posset Qui Nihil Est 11:54, October 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * 8) This Keyblade is very nice in design. No Name- while having better stats apparently- looks like too much like some of those stupid 358/2 days Keys. Oh,how the sea calls 16:32, October 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * 9) A more creatively-named and useful Keyblade for me, since I prefer physical attacks. Besides, what can time do to nothingness?17:33, October 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * 10) Color scheme
 * 11) I can't beat the stupid MF to save my life. And I only want the No Name for Aqua, who's my strongest at the moment. - Eternal  Nothingness  XIII  00:58, October 11, 2010 (UTC)

Votes for No Name

 * 1) Only one I can't get. --Evnyofdeath 01:46, October 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * 2) Better-looking than the dull void gear.
 * 3) If the Void Gear was colored like Vanitas' Void Gear, it would have my vote. Also, No Name glows.
 * 4) I love this, it gloweth in the darketh.Erry 04:28, October 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * 5) Magic>Strength. Falcos 06:15, October 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * 6) I don't like monochrome.
 * 7) A monochrome copy of Vanitas' keyblade, or a keyblade all of its own. Unike by shape, and it's mysterious glow.
 * 8) Void Gear is very beastly and it admittingly does look very cool, but No Name's glow-in-the-dark would seriously be helpful if, say, I got stuck in a room and the power went out!
 * 9) No Name is quite pretty in many ways. 03:00, October 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * 10) --Axel - Boo to you too! http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll112/Icy_Scientist/pumpkin2.gif 21:23, October 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * 11) Oh! Blink, blink! Glow, glow! 12:43, October 13, 2010 (UTC)
 * 12) Definitely a tough choice. However, this Keyblade you really have to Work for. I'm not saying VR isn't hard, but the U is like the ultimate superboss which makes NN the ultimate Keyblade. --One-Winged Angel 01:12, October 16, 2010 (UTC)

17master, just saying that technically the No Name has better stats.

Oh yeah, I'm kinda bad at deciding a good word to use lol 17master 10:09, October 10, 2010 (UTC)

I thought this would bend more in favor of Void Gear, but it seems pretty close so far. The week is young however...21:08, October 10, 2010 (UTC)
 * So, we're back to trying out the two sentence rule. However, we still need to discuss the repercussions of breaking this rule, so we'd appreciate everyone's feedback on the talk page.

Ah, finally a close one! Almost all of the previous matches are soo one-sided! It's good to have a close match.

Does this match remind anyone else of the Soul Calibur series? Evil sword with eyeball versus glowing magical sword? Anyone? 03:00, October 11, 2010 (UTC)

the score is even! maybe this'll be the first time we hold a sudden death? lol. BebopKate: I don't play Soul Calibur lol. 17master 11:56, October 13, 2010 (UTC)

It won't be the first sudden death, the battle of Sora vs. Riku also had a sudden death--Xabryn 12:01, October 13, 2010 (UTC)

Oh yeah... forgot about that ._. 17master 12:29, October 13, 2010 (UTC)

Votes for Prize Pod

 * 1) This one looks cooler--Xabryn 01:33, October 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * 2) I sucked at getting prizes from Bulky Vendor... Prize Pod was so much simpler. "Just beat up the monster to claim your prize." -- 01:57, October 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * 3) Beating this thing senseless is really fun to do.-- Random! to a point!  02:04, October 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * 4) Bulky Vendors are a pain the rear to catch, plus, you don't get prizes at all if it gets away. Meanwhile, you just hit prize pods to claim your prize. Plus, Prize Pod's prizes yield a more valuable item - a Keyblade. --
 * 5) It's a lot easier to just beat the tar out of these guys. Let's be honest, that's why I bought BBS in the first place! -- A Crono  of the Silver kind  02:46, October 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * 6) you get lots more prizes, plus you can actually attack these things rather than waiting on a reaction command --ShadowsTwilight 02:53, October 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * 7) You can get: A powerful keyblade, ice cream to change command styles, a lot of EXP and CP... it's truly a prize.
 * 8) I like purple. So this gets my vote. :D --Erry 03:55, October 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * 9) I don't remember what the Bulky Vendor gave except Orichalcum, but Ice Cream is far more useful. At least it can help beating the superbosses. Tried to beat Seph' up with an orichalcum ? I don't think so. — Nihil Perdere Posset Qui Nihil Est 11:07, October 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * 10) I just think Prize Pods are cooler, and beating them senseless for ingredients is awesome. Besides, can you eat an Orichalcum? No? Didn't think so. maggosh 04:42, October 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * 11) If I had an ingredient for every time I hit one o' these...wait I do. 8 recipes ,a keyblade, a command style,a trophy. 11 for the price of 1. --One-Winged Angel 03:00, October 5, 2010 (UTC)

Votes for Bulky Vendor

 * 1) This thing actually drops useful items, including Orichalcum, and it makes sense for it to be dropping items based on its design, a prize ball machine. 01:55, October 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * 2) Prize Pods were too easy to find, these colourful guys were a challenge. 09:11, October 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * 3) I like the Bulky Vendor. It looks so sweet. - Lev  L  09:49, October 3, 2010 (UTC)
 * 4) Darkness > Negitive emotions.
 * 5) Gashapon > Pod.
 * 6) Why not?
 * 7) They're fun, right? Plus, they're the only non-dangerous Heartless that I can use. (I suck at the mushrooms)
 * 8) The Bulky Vendor has an identifiable and more creative design and theme, and also provides more of a challenge for the player than the Prize Pods do. -- 04:27, October 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * 9) Much more better. 'Sides, Friendly Heartless make more sense, little as they make. Why exactly is Vanitas giving you ice cream ingredients? Falcos 18:03, October 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * 10) Havent played BbS so I cant relate to how useful the other guy is, so the Bulky Vendor it is! D.Dark. 20:12, October 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * 11) Mmmmmm.....candy.....--Axel - Boo to you too! http://i286.photobucket.com/albums/ll112/Icy_Scientist/pumpkin2.gif 21:28, October 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * 12) Nostalgia is nostalgia. : ) Cou- ra-  geuh !  21:37, October 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * 13) It wins because I say so.Oh,how the sea calls 00:11, October 5, 2010 (UTC)
 * 14) First time seeing this thing I was like "Aw how cute, it'll give me some keep synthesis item just like the cheap dispensers in stores give you gum balls!" ..Few moments later.. "I got a Orichalcum?!" Bulky Vendor = epic win.-- Xion 4  ever  15:50, October 6, 2010 (UTC)
 * 15) Prize Pods's design is boring 17master 11:00, October 7, 2010 (UTC)

Please read the revised rules, everyone! Nothing major has changed, but we've re-worded things to make them clearer and easier to understand. Or, at least that's what we hope it'll turn out to be...
 * Maggosh, Maggosh, Maggosh...-- Random! to a point!  04:57, October 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * What? :/ maggosh 05:02, October 4, 2010 (UTC)

I said the senseless beating thing first. >:)-- Random! to a point!  05:05, October 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * Ah, but you said it's fun. I said it's awesome. :P maggosh 05:10, October 4, 2010 (UTC)

But-wha-how-why-uh-CURSE YOU, MAGGOSH!!! CURSE YOU!!!-- Random! to a point!  05:11, October 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * In all actuality, it is possible to eat an Orichalcum. How do I know this? Because I've done it. Tastes like sweet eggs. -- 23:30, October 4, 2010 (UTC)

Eggs, huh? I always imagined it would taste like beef.-- Random! to a point!  23:32, October 4, 2010 (UTC)
 * No, you're thinking of Orichalcum+. -- 00:11, October 5, 2010 (UTC)

Oh, right. My bad.-- Random! to a point!  00:13, October 5, 2010 (UTC)
