KHWiki talk:The Keyblade War

Just wondering, how exactly were the participants chosen?(ಠ_ೃ)﻿ Bully!  14:30, October 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * I've been pinging IRC admins recently to revise the list, and we've been cycling participants in and out until we found a list we could all agree with. Once I get a final draft to you and another admin, I'll post it, so that any other necessary changes can be made accordingly. -- 22:54, October 11, 2010 (UTC)

Really?
I'm trying not to sound like an ass here, but is this just another attempt by DTN to prove the MA to be pointless? Are you trying to draw attention away from the MA and the upcoming Joint Struggle? 24.123.83.62 16:10, October 11, 2010 (UTC)

I don't think Mirage Arena is pointless. It's made for fun, so just enjoy it. 17master 16:13, October 11, 2010 (UTC)

1) Who are you? 2) How does this make the Mirage Arena pointless? It's only going to last for a couple of months, then its over. If anything, the Mirage Arena makes this pointless, but either way the're just fun contests.16:19, October 11, 2010 (UTC)

Dammit, this makes it look like I did, doesn't it. And, to make me look even guiltier, I kinda have to agree with the anon. Isn't DTN always saying that we are to preoccupied with community events? Oh, and are there even 128 characters to choose from? Are we going to have to use some Heartless?
 * I helped planned last year's year-end celebratory event, so I went ahead and took charge on this one. This is also not at all geared toward shaming the Mirage Arena, because (1) the Mirage Arena has fixed its initial issues I had with it, and I now actively participate in it, and (2) well, this is just a comment, but that's one heck of an over-generalization. And yes, there are 128 characters to choose from. More in fact, we had a good field of up to 170-200 to select from, not including Heartless. -- 22:54, October 11, 2010 (UTC)

Voting
So, is this just gonna be in the same style of voting as the MA?

Yeah, seriously. DTN just posted somethign about voting... but I still don't get how to vote.

Bracket Contest
Is anyone planning on running a March-Madness like bracket prediction contest? User:Xalxe

Where do we vote?
umm seriously, where do we put our votes?!!!! Roxas pwns sora47 22:27, October 15, 2010 (UTC)Roxas_pwns_sora

Where,oh where...
What to press to vote for Aqua?

HOW DO WE VOTE!?!
seriously, people, I have NO idea how to vote and I want to get my votes in for the first two brackets before they close!!! SOMEONE HELP!!!

1) Sign your posts with four tildes (like this ~ ). 2) Just edit the section of each match that says "Votes for Blah Blah". For example, if you want to vote for Phil, click to edit the section that says "Votes for Phil". When you're in the edit window, just add your vote to the bottom of the section.01:40, October 19, 2010 (UTC)

Huh? Is voting time for the two first KHI matchups already over? Cuz I can't edit a vote in...it says the page is locked...? Sephiroth0812 15:13, October 22, 2010 (UTC)

Bad Matchups
I pretty sure that some people noticed that there are bad matchups against other characters. Come on, everyone knows that the 'Queen of Hearts VS. Sora' battle, Sora's going to win. Couldn't the people who created this have picked better Matchups that aren't one-sided? Are they trying to make certain characters lose?
 * That's the point. Predictable matches are predictable. maggosh 21:32, October 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * To be fair, a randomizer was used to select all the sets. -- 23:30, October 20, 2010 (UTC)

Champion bracket
At the end of the tournament, is there going to be a championship bracket? Because there is going to be 16 champions, which is enough to make a bracket. SeanWheeler 22:14, October 22, 2010 (UTC)

Moving on?
It is Friday so shouldn't we move on to the mixed brackets? This is the third week, so the KH1 brackets should close and make way for the Mixed brackets. SeanWheeler 13:32, October 29, 2010 (UTC)

We'll just have to wait for the admins to open the next two brackets

Pongo & Perdita VS Ansem the Wise
I think we need to change that fight. I don't know how to format two different pictures in the same half of the box. EDIT: I made that harder than it needed to be, but it's fixed now.00:31, October 30, 2010 (UTC)


 * Wuh-Oh, I also just noticed that in the KHI Bracket A, Tidus and Clayton tied. What do we do about that?00:40, October 30, 2010 (UTC)
 * Oh, and someone will need to take care of the little story excerpt at the top of the Brackets. I've got nothing for those.01:56, October 30, 2010 (UTC)
 * I'll add those story bits, and probably fiddle with the colors and image size parameters too. Thanks bunches, Lapis. -- 05:22, October 30, 2010 (UTC)
 * In the match between Tidus and Clayton, we really messed up because Tidus had one vote more than Clayton but Clayton moved up. That mistake is even harder to fix because round 2 is here and people are already voting for Clayton. SeanWheeler 00:17, November 13, 2010 (UTC)
 * Aw, man! I wanted Tidus to win. Bring me the head of the one responsible! ;) So  x  ra  ]] 04:35, November 19, 2010 (UTC)

They were tied. I would assume the winner was selected with a randomizer.05:42, November 19, 2010 (UTC)

SeanWheeler and the Opening of the Brackets
Sorry for countinuesly voting, I just went on my talk page, and when will voting start?--Laurxafinal 01:36, November 20, 2010 (UTC)


 * I am also sorry for opening them prematurely. Next time the brackets would open later than usual, I would wait. By the way, what needed to be fixed before they open? SeanWheeler 23:17, November 20, 2010 (UTC)


 * There were no edits from the "No voting yet" period until they were opened. The point was that they had not been opened by someone in charge, therefore they were still subject to being changed or reconfirmed. So  x  ra  ]] 02:14, November 21, 2010 (UTC)

Mah Votes!
Where did they go??? Xalxe 10:55, November 20, 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, sorry about that. SeanWheeler 23:19, November 20, 2010 (UTC)

Most random OCD thing ever
Am I the only one who sees Even's name as Even? I was going to correct it myself but after all the stress the admins have endured Re:The Wheeler Catastrophe, I figured I best ask first. So x  ra  ]] 18:47, November 20, 2010 (UTC)


 * I noticed that too, but I don't know how to fix it.19:19, November 20, 2010 (UTC)


 * I'm pretty sure you just open the page, type back over the, and re-save it. For some reason one of the edits replaced it with &amp;lt;s&amp;gt; (the HTML escaped version) so it appears as but it's really escaped. So  x  ra  ]] 20:37, November 20, 2010 (UTC)
 * OK, i'm not sure what the hell is wrong with it because i tried to fix it, it looked right in preview mode, but when i pressed the save button nothing had changed. i am thinking it's a bug-- 20:43, November 20, 2010 (UTC)


 * Looks like KrytenKoro figured it out; it was connected to an unmatching tag at the end. Thanks, Kryten. So  x  ra  ]] 21:58, November 20, 2010 (UTC)

err
All brackets are subject to change. Please propose any changes on the talk page. DO NOT edit these brackets without first suggesting the change on the talk page! <-- shouldn't this be put in the beginning of the "brackets" section? I doubt some people will notice the message if its put under the entire bracket.

Losers
Will there be a "Second Chance" bracket(s) like in the Mirage Arena?  Chitalian  8   23:25, November 22, 2010 (UTC)
 * No, that defeats the purpose of losing a battle, and does not fit into a tournament that is so crunched for time and so large as well.-- 23:59, November 22, 2010 (UTC)

Alrhough they would have gotten new comments that they didn't get before. but DTN is right. we have no time for that. SeanWheeler 14:25, November 26, 2010 (UTC)

Waiting
That was twice that I got in trouble for making the brackets move on just because it was a Friday. First I looked at the results and put in MIX brackets A and B (although DTN later called them Mixed). But the second time, which was last week, I opened the brackets, even though I don't have any authority on this wiki, just because I looked at the brackets and thought they were ready (Because their pages existed and I didn't see any errors). That edit caused a lot of people to vote and their votes had to be taken off. I learned my lesson. Now it maybe Friday and the new brackets may not be up yet, but I am not going to edit the project page. I'll just wait for DTN to put up the new brackets. I thought Thanksgiving would give him time, but I'll let him do it, so that I wouldn't be blocked for doing it three times. SeanWheeler 14:25, November 26, 2010 (UTC)

Well, at least Maggosh is closing the round 2 brackets. SeanWheeler 22:06, November 26, 2010 (UTC)


 * I don't know. I haven't really thought about it. SeanWheeler 22:23, November 26, 2010 (UTC)

People voting before it opened
Why are people voting even though the brackets still say "Pending?" They should probably read it. I had to take some votes off. SeanWheeler 01:02, November 27, 2010 (UTC)

They probably just don't know what it means, but when is the Pending going to be over, anyway? Roxas pwns sora47 06:01, November 27, 2010 (UTC)Roxas_pwns_sora47

They're just looking at the recent changes I suppose. Oasis skin is having a problem where edit summaries aren't showing up sometimes. I think maggosh will fully open the brackets after he opened the other 2 brackets (2 or 4, I can't remember) So please, wait patiently.

Whoa, all brackets!?
Yesterday, Maggosh brought up only the BBS and KH1 brackets, but now, we are doing all the brackets in one week? And from the time that was delayed from voting, we are doing all the brackets in one week? Wow, that's insane! We are doing all the brackets in one week! Not alot of time though.... SeanWheeler 01:11, November 28, 2010 (UTC)

This is so exciting. I can't wait to vote in Round 3! SeanWheeler 01:52, November 28, 2010 (UTC)

Lack of stories
It seems that the lack of stories in each bracket might be the reason for this long wait. Do you need help with posting a prologue on top of the brackets? SeanWheeler 19:30, November 28, 2010 (UTC)

When can we vote???
When can we vote for round 3??? ANX219 19:39, November 28, 2010 (UTC)


 * Just speculating, but there's only 4 weeks of voting left, so they may want the last week to end on the 31st (since it falls on a Friday) which would mean if they delay it a week, there will be exactly 4 weeks until the 31st. As I said, just speculation, but it's a feasible reason. 16:21, November 29, 2010 (UTC)


 * Argh, you're right. I miscounted. 16:42, November 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * Seriously, when can we vote? It is already Monday. There is no time to wait. SeanWheeler 20:15, November 29, 2010 (UTC)


 * If nothing's happened by tomorrow when I get home I'm going to message DTN and ask if he wants someone to set them up for him... 00:56, December 1, 2010 (UTC)

I just have to say...
That picture of all the finalists is really awesome. Naminé and Roxas Forever

Can only second this...I'm pondering making it my desktop wallpaper... 12:00, December 5, 2010 (UTC)

Opening
Yes!!! The REAL battle begins!!! 16:24, December 5, 2010 (UTC)

Card Pic
So, why not upload them here? SeanWheeler 22:47, December 14, 2010 (UTC)

Image policy. KingdomKeyDarkside 01:09, December 15, 2010 (UTC)

I know I should be able to vote, but...
Why won't the edit buttons show up for me? I can't vote!--Have you ever had the urge to do something incredibly stupid... and AWESOME? 00:33, December 9, 2010 (UTC)

Congratulating the champion
We are at the final battle, and so far Aqua is beating Riku by a landslide. If Aqua wins, will there be a forum congratulating her? SeanWheeler

I agree. I think we could tell everyone that voted for Aqua thank you. ANX219

Just wondering
That's for the Mirage Arena, which is different from The Keyblade War. 19:51, December 24, 2010 (UTC)

Vexilor's signature
When Vexilor voted, he signed his whole user page instead of his name and someone should fix that. SeanWheeler 01:12, December 29, 2010 (UTC)

IT ALL ENDS NOW!
Today is December 31st, 2010 so shouldn't the whole tournament end? SeanWheeler 18:22, December 31, 2010 (UTC)
 * No, the tournament schedule is allowing this match one extra day, so that it ends exactly on New Year's Day, on which the winner shall be posted on the front page. That's kind of the entire point of it being a year-end celebration. -- 21:34, December 31, 2010 (UTC)

Oh, so it ends tomorrow? SeanWheeler 21:58, December 31, 2010 (UTC)


 * What else is Aqua going to receive? SeanWheeler 02:37, January 1, 2011 (UTC)

Where is the third place battle?
After the Keyblade War ended, the match between Mickey and Roxas was removed. Where is it now? Would we have to go through the trouble of looking through the history? SeanWheeler 03:09, January 2, 2011 (UTC)

It's being/was hosted on the Mirage Arena. It was up there for the same length of time as the final match.03:57, January 2, 2011 (UTC)

That still didn't answer my question as it is not there anymore. Is it archived somewhere? SeanWheeler 23:54, January 2, 2011 (UTC)

Ah, misread the question. I don't know if it's archived, but Mickey won 28 to 25, here's the history.01:02, January 3, 2011 (UTC)

The war was great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
