Votes for Goofy

 * 1) While Donald's the best when it comes to the cartoons, his voice just drives me bonkers in Japanese. He's useless in KH for anything but healing, and the characters' reactions to Goofy's "death" as Vim and Vigor plays is just epic. Goofy's also good for comic relief, and his Limit Breaks are superior to firecrackers and fireworks. - Eternal  Nothingness  XIII  23:50, August 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * 2) What's with the lack of votes for Goofy? Donald dies every 2 seconds in battle.-- Random! to a point!  23:57, August 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * 3) You've got my vote Goofy! You are so goofy!
 * 4) I can has Goofy vote? Olos --Ag (Silver) 107.8682 undefined 00:01, August 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * 5) Remember that James Bond film, You Only Live Twice? Goofy is living proof of that title. Plus his shields can make Donald's staffs into golf clubs. maggosh 01:58, August 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * 6) Goofy makes a lot of sense despite his goofiness... which is something we least expect but I look up to him for that. Donald, on the other hand is quick-tempered and loses his MP a lot. Plus, Goofy Bash, Goofy Tornado in REC = win. 04:12, August 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * 7) I would just rather fight along side and travel with him in my party. I focus on speed and strength ^^ so it would be good to have a defender around.Oh,how the sea calls 06:39, August 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * 8) Knocksmash is win. 09:30, August 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * 9) Goofy is awesome. Knocksmash is awesome. And when it looked like Goofy died! 11:04, August 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * 10) Two words. Talk Bubbles.17:34, August 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * 11) While neither are my favorite, at least Goofy isn't all that annoying and has some common sense (ironically enough) --ShadowsTwilight 19:35, August 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * 12) I like the concept of goofy better. I've always been more of berserker and goofy helps that more than donald.--Memorized

Votes for Donald

 * 1) In all reality, I don't really like either of them. Donald is the one I always keep in my party to heal me, so he recieves my vote.
 * 2) Before the early votes were cleared, I was disgusted at the lack of votes for Donald. Goofy has two uses: close range Limits in the already too easy Kingdom Hearts II, and a source of MP to mooch off of. Donald not only can cast third-tier spells, but also has the actual intention of fighting. Goofy avoids all combat possible; he fights with a shield, for crying out loud. Plus when Donald heals you, he does not use up your expensive restorative items. What does Goofy think Sora is, made of gil munny? -- 23:28, August 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * 3) Wisdom defeats Strenght23:32, August 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * 4) Donald dies far too much... and his MP bar always depletes way too fast, but his healing abilities and provision of Wisdom Form more than make up for it.
 * 5) No matter how useless he is in KH2FM, he's my second favorite party member overall (after Riku) and he's a great source of comic relief, and I love his magic.
 * 6) I completely agree with DTN. He can be useless at times, but at least he saves me from wasting cure, so I can spend more time with other magic. 13:57, August 29, 2010 (UTC)
 * 7) He's a handy little guy. He heals.  He strikes things with lightning.  His Fantasia special kicks butt.  He has the world's most famous speech impediment.  What's not to love?  03:11, August 30, 2010 (UTC)
 * 8) I love both of these characters so much, but in terms of gameplay, Goofy was prety useless, but Donald saved my ass more than once.15:03, August 30, 2010

Okay, this battle is sorta giving me a twisted idea of Donald and Goofy actually using their weapons on each other. o.O XD 01:04, August 28, 2010 (UTC)
 * "Once it hits six days, go nuts." It says six days now, so why the vote removal, eh? - Eternal  Nothingness  XIII  01:16, August 28, 2010 (UTC)

I should have been more clear. It's at 6 days, 22 hours, blah blah blah. Once it's down to 6 days, 0 hours, 0 minutes, 0 seconds, go nuts.
 * KKD is a lot little obssessive over the time we open battles... he wants it to be open on Sunday... I see no problem really... to open it now. But we are a family here, so we respect each other.01:21, August 28, 2010 (UTC)

The battles always opened on sunday, I'm just trying to keep consistency.
 * Goofy is win. I don't think Donald can stand up in this one.-- Random! to a point!  20:16, August 29, 2010 (UTC)

Ok guys i gotta ask, numerous times (Not in this battle tough) i have tried voting and its gotten removed (despite filling every requirement), whats the deal? Oh and...Donald is gonna win...blabla bla.. yeah D.Dark. 23:34, September 2, 2010 (UTC)

Votes for Final Form

 * 1)  Eternal  Nothingness  XIII  02:25, August 21, 2010 (UTC)
 * 2) it's nice and white not like the stain.User:ZACH/Sig
 * 3) Played Kingdom Hearts II, played Final Mix, I must say that this one trumps everything else in terms of badassity, hands down. 05:37, August 21, 2010 (UTC)
 * 4) Just having pure power, wielding Fenrir and Fatal Crest is an awesome combo and you can glide! 08:52, August 21, 2010 (UTC)
 * 5) Final Form is more powerful and it looks better, so I'm voting for this one. - Lev  L  09:06, August 21, 2010 (UTC)
 * 6) It's just simply amazing. --Nitrous X 14:00, August 21, 2010 (UTC)
 * 7) Max glide + two Keyblades + floating above (NOT walking on) the ground = epic win.-- Xion 4  ever  21:21, August 21, 2010 (UTC)
 * 8) It's more useful and you can actually level it up.--Memorized
 * 9) You can control it, you can heal, you can revert from it, you can wield keyblades in it, and overall it won't get you killed--ShadowsTwilight
 * 10) Let me put it this way; you can use Final Form willingly. maggosh 23:08, August 21, 2010 (UTC)
 * 11) Its attacks are ten times more epic looking, and I prefer Light to Darkness, and Glide rocks.
 * 12) My suggestion gets my vote!
 * 13) Final Form makes life complete...-- Random! to a point!  14:45, August 25, 2010 (UTC)
 * 14) As much as I enjoy watching Sora hang upside down from walls using his feet, Final Form gets my vote. 10:32, August 26, 2010 (UTC)
 * 15) I have this one in action figure form. 'Nuff said.  02:32, August 27, 2010 (UTC)

Votes for Anti Form

 * 1) Darkness rules, it is cool and if you train with it really hard it can become very useful02:27, August 21, 2010 (UTC)
 * 2) Look at my talk bubble. All black.  All seeping with darkness.  I am the darkness.
 * 3) Because Kingdom Hearts II was was too easy, at least the penalty form was some form of an attempt at creating a punishment for using the Drive Forms too often. Using Final Form just takes the fun out of things, often. -- 03:18, August 25, 2010 (UTC)
 * 4) This was a really hard decision. I love both forms, and of course, Final Form has really deep meaning (Sora's bond with Roxas and all that shiz), but Anti Form shows that Sora's not perfect. He still has lingering darkness, and who knows: maybe Anti Form was a nudge for things to come...
 * 5) Anti Form is beautiful, and its variations are beautiful. Final Form is just Sora pimped out in white, which is overdone. (Yes, I know that "Dark X" is overdone, too. So what, I like it). Glorious  CHAOS!  15:59, August 25, 2010 (UTC)
 * 6) Interesting concept of Sora manipulating darkness in this way. Plus, I like the concept of Sora, the great Keyblade hero, beating Heartless with his bare hands.16:04, August 25, 2010 (UTC)
 * 7) Looks cooler. --00:54, August 26, 2010 (UTC)

Yay!! They picked mine! ^_^
 * Oh speaking of which - I'd like to see the noms for this session. 00:50, August 26, 2010 (UTC)

Notice: DON'T FORGET TO NOMINATE STUFF! It appears that people are only voting in the arena proper, and not nominating the battles they want to see. Our nominations page is diminishing each round.
 * I had an idea for a nom, but it has to wait because the category is currently offlimits. :(

Totally one-sided. -Azul81677 23:30, August 26, 2010 (UTC)

I have some ideas lined up, so there'll be competition next time.23:57, August 26, 2010 (UTC)

@Azul : Popularity contests can end up being one-sided...

@Lapis : Alriiiight, spill. ^_^ 01:06, August 27, 2010 (UTC)

Azul: I think all but one of these matches have been totally one-sided. Ah, well what can you expect with something like Kingdom Hearts? On a completely different topic, Kingdom Hearts II totally needed Room Core Form. -- 01:15, August 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * I've participated in one-sided matches (even matches which I lost, ultimately), but then again... I'm kinda aware that this is bound to happen. Not only because there are some things which, when compared, there's a world of difference in the feedback, but also because... do we have that many elements anyway ? 01:18, August 27, 2010 (UTC)
 * Next week's battle proves to be evenly matched (Donald vs. Goofy, in case you were wondering). Either way, it's all in good fun, so who cares about one-sidedness?

Your obssesion over the Room Core is just weird, DTN. Why don't you nominate it in a ONE ON ONE battle? I doubt someone other than you will vote of it.

Well, the series is expanding so hopefully there won't be as many fights like this, but it'll be hard with the limited amout of "fan favorite" characters. I can see why fights would be one-sided, but this fight reminds me of the current MMII fight between Kain and some Mystic Quest character. Clear winner, what's the point, ya know? But it's not all that srs ;} -Azul 81677  18:12, August 27, 2010 (UTC)


 * Azul: Aside from when BH votes for Mystic Quest. Also, Drake's Team Rocket line? Hilarious.
 * Reedemer: One day, Room Core is going to be in a battle in the Mirage Arena, and it will be so amazing that the arena will explode with a burst of Room Core-esque colors. Thus, pipe down. -- 22:32, August 27, 2010 (UTC)

Votes for Hollow Bastion

 * 1) Whilst many show a preference for RG, I must say I'm going with HB. There's an aesthetic quality about the twisted castle which we could see in great detail, which we never could after KH and REC. 15:15, August 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * 2) I choose the KH version because this is the place where all the important events take place. Nothing really important happens here in KH2, only some predictable discoveries.19:41, August 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * 3) Lift Stop. Good times. 21:22, August 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * 4) A simple town is nothing in comparison to a towering castle, filled with evil and heartless...
 * Gee, a peaceful rebuilding town versus a menacing tower filled with endless hordes of Heartless completed with a waterfall that goes up not to mention the place where Sora became a Heartless. Easy choice. ''' This Is The Heart In Its True Form  Heartless_hires.png 03:33, August 9, 2010 (UTC)

Votes for Radiant Garden

 * 1) Radiant Garden. The flowers, the waterfalls, the streets, they're all just beautiful. - 00:56, August 8, 2010
 * 2) I was actually surprised how much I liked HB in the original KH, but I still prefer the KHII version. Less confusing.01:02, August 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * 3) I'm looking forward to playing Radiant Garden in Birth by Sleep! - 14:20, August 8, 2010
 * 4) Only because of Birth by Sleep. Epic music. Epic boss battles, amazing new characters, critical plot features for all three characters. - Eternal  Nothingness  XIII  14:25, August 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * 5) I'm definitely voting for Radiant Garden. It is such a pretty world in BBS, much prettier than Hollow Bastion. - Lev  L  15:39, August 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * 6) Hollow Bastion just seems so...dull...this seems so much brighter and better. --http://s798.photobucket.com/albums/yy267/Dan_da_Man36/stitchcharmsmall.pngAxel Lives On http://s798.photobucket.com/albums/yy267/Dan_da_Man36/stitchcharmsmall.png 15:42, August 8, 2010 (UTC)
 * 7) Radiant Garden FTW!! 17:50, August 8, 2010
 * 8) Only for the Radiant Garden of KHII, when the town was still healing from being overrun by Heartless.  21:21, August 8, 2010
 * 9) The battles are better. HB only had the Riku fight fight going for it. Plus RG has two worlds within it.--Memorized
 * 10) Radiant Garden is so good in KH2 and BBS plus I HATE Hollow Bastion because it is to labyrinth-like. 14:13, August 9, 2010 (UTC)
 * 11) BBS showed just how interesting Radient Garden can be, and by the time of KHII, it's become an interesting mixture of the original beauty it posessed and the darkness which took over. The Heartless Manufactory is still there, as is the underground laboratory built by Ansem's apprentices. Clearly Radient Garden still has some secrets to divulge.--Samoth 08:42, August 12, 2010 (UTC)

I'm wondering why no one has commented here yet. Maybe I'll be the only commenter. Anyway, I very much want Hollow Bastion to win, although I'm pretty sure Radiant Garden will.  This Is The Heart In Its True Form   03:42, August 9, 2010 (UTC)
 * Agreed. HB was intricately done, and it did leave me wondering how the pipes were done, how the entries and lift stops were so well planned. I don't want to do injustice to our voters here, but the only place where we do get that kind of intricacy in RG, if it's not the Cavern of Remembrance (don't even take that into account !) is the series of corridors in the lower level. What's more, we were even expecting HB to make a comeback given KHII's beta trailer, but it didn't, and the scene where OXIII appeared happened on ground level, and not in the castle proper. 06:32, August 9, 2010 (UTC)
 * I would love to be in HB during KHII. It fits so well! Such a pity how much great stuff in the beta trailers are taken out. Not that I don't like RG. I do like it, especially those little sparkly light things that fall from the sky. Anyway, I digress. The many traps and mazes in HB just can't be replaced by RG.

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. 02:55, August 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * 2) After the Battle. End of story...
 * 3) Love both of the songs, but to be honest this wasn't a tough choice.09:38, August 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * 4) Wow. Tough choice, but I guess after the battle. 09:40, August 1, 2010 (UTC)
 * 5) I really like the Remix of Simple & Clean, but Sanctuary is such an awesome song. 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. - Eternal  Nothingness  XIII  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.  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. --http://s798.photobucket.com/albums/yy267/Dan_da_Man36/stitchcharmsmall.pngAxel Lives On http://s798.photobucket.com/albums/yy267/Dan_da_Man36/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.
 * 12) Just a matter of personal taste, and I like this one better. -- 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. -- 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.
 * 4) Simple and Clean. It was a tough choice, but I chose this for the same reasons as maggosh. [[file:Way to the Dawn KHII.png|20px]] Light and dark [[file:Wayward Wind KHBBS.png|20px]] 00:14, August 2, 2010 (UTC)
 * 5) Simple and clean coming fresh with a breeze! :}
 * 6) I like'em both but I can connect with the feelings of S&C more deeply.17:12, 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-- Xion 4  ever  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! -- 05:08, August 1, 2010 (UTC)

Workin' on it, Doorsey.
 * 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 ? 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. -- 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 ? 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?01:32, August 5, 2010 (UTC)

Is it possible to incorporate both ? 07:29, August 7, 2010 (UTC)
 * Media Templates with images? That's easy. But again... it won't stay in the center.15:36, August 7, 2010 (UTC)

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

Votes for Sora

 * 1) Nuhu, Sora is the best and always will be.01:59, 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. 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.03:52, 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? 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.  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. 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.
 * 8) I'm voting for Sora here, I just never really liked Riku.  03:05, July 15, 2010 (UTC)
 * 9) I definitely vote for Sora. - Lev  L  16:35, July 15, 2010 (UTC)
 * 10) One word: Roxas. Without Sora, there is no Roxas. No Roxas = very bad.-- Xion 4  ever  17:56, July 15, 2010 (UTC


 * colspan="3" style="width: 50%; background: #EEEEFF; padding: 5px" valign="top"|

Votes for Riku

 * 1) Durr, of course I'm voting for Riku. Riku>Sora, any day.
 * 2) Riku is SUPERIOR -- 01:59, July 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * 3) Hell yeah! Sora, you are the weakest link, goodbye.
 * 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.
 * 5) I don't hate Sora, but... it's Riku. -- 02:24, July 13, 2010 (UTC)
 * 6) Riku can control darkness but is still light and he can look like Ansem! 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. - Eternal  Nothingness  XIII  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. 03:23, July 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * What do you mean by that, Trois?

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. 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.03:32, 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. 03:34, July 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * I just like Riku 'cause I can relate to him a lot more than Sora.
 * For me it is the other way around.03:37, July 11, 2010 (UTC)

I saw the beta... Riku sure looked evil, more evil them Ansem Seeker of Darkness.03:43, 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. 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.16:48, July 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * How do you get to the beta? is there still some type of disc or downoad or what?
 * It's the beta trailer. Not the beta version of the game.20:15, July 11, 2010 (UTC)
 * The slogan still remains ; nevertheless, SoRiKa's faces were scary indeed. 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? -- 00:03, July 13, 2010 (UTC)
 * After this batlle that rule shall be modified to the max of three line per vote.00:07, 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. -- 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.00:14, July 13, 2010 (UTC)

I say 1 sentence. anything else gets removed by one of us.
 * Too harsh, KKD.00:16, 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. -- 00:19, July 13, 2010 (UTC)
 * no, we don't remove the vote. We take out whatever wasn't in the first sentence.

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? -- 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. 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. -- 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 rules19:27, July 13, 2010 (UTC)

Okay, then by Dan36's suggestion, I'm putting a large and ugly usermessage telling people to read the rules. -- 19:52, July 13, 2010 (UTC) Whoa so Riku the winner!? Wonder who would battle next!?— Wing Blade
 * 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... 12:05, July 28, 2010 (UTC)


 * Speaking of those two songs, I wonder what will be featured in RE:coded?— Wing Blade 12:17, 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. 12:26, July 28, 2010 (UTC)
