Finale or Not Finale?

[DA 2009]

Given that the saga is starting to drift into holiday time (and finals time for those in school), I've noticed that the remaining people are starting to get burned out, which is entirely understandable. So, given the circumstances, I leave the decision of how quickly to end this up to you. I can prematurely initiate the finale after this Combat Day is over with whoever survives, or we can continue doing rounds until the previously determined number of 3 players remains.

The Finale is judged differently than the normal rounds. In the Finale, everyone will be on even ground. Think of it like the "Super Bowl" of Dante's Abyss. The season determines if you get there, but once you're in the Super Bowl, your season doesn't matter, and all that matters is how you play that one game. So I guess it depends how good you feel about your chances.

Preferably, the people who are still left are the ones that vote. I'm making each vote public so I know that it is the remaining players who are casting them.

What's it going to be?

I'm mostly up for either, however, as you point out, the holidays are coming. I'm looking at a rough schedule coming up (I don't wish to go deep into it, but I will have to devote more time to work this month), with Erin's bday being on the 19th, me trying to arrange to do something for my friend before he moves back to North Carolina next week, and somehow getting the money to do these things in addition to covering bills. Then we have Christmas Eve and Christmas, and this is busy season at work for me now. Hours have changed to compensate. Directly after that is New Years and other party events that people will be involved in.

The reason I state these things is that I know straight up that its likely that everyone is looking at the same time constraints. I'm certain that Sophia will be in for some roughness due to his own family, and Sage will likely have school issues. I don't know about Tamsin or Trafford's lives, so I can't say.

So yeah, I'd vote to go ahead and kick it off with whoever survives the round. If not, there's always the collar option for those of us that have to focus on other things soon, haha.

EDIT: Reposted, and just read the clarification about the standings (was writing when you included it). Even still, voting the same.

I'm really burned out at this point, and yeah, my life is about to get crazy with the holidays, so my vote is an early finale.

[Tamsin]

I have to agree with Ashe. December is a generally busy month for everyone. Although I have the luxury of not having holidays in December (Orthodox Christmas and New Year take place two weeks after their Catholic counterparts), I still have to study since I have 5 exams piled up for January. Plus, as people have probably noticed, my RP`s have increasingly become 300 word pieces of very poor quality.

So assuming I actually survive this upcoming fight, I would appretiate an early finale.

Just kill off two people this round.

But only if one of them is not me.

Just a reminder for Jack, Meer, Tallow, Saz, Xenia, and (as I was posting this, the newest vote) Karin.

Just read the day 5 thread. Yeah, kill off two people this round. Also, end this round tonight.

How do you know I voted?

[Jack]

Yeah I didnt think you'd know, my bad.

[Vad]

We can see it.

@Tim: XD

[Kaden]

Be advised that this is a public poll: other users can see the choice(s) you selected.

What the hell is so damned hard about not voting in something that has nothing to do with you?

Shit.

[Alexander Trafford]

I am indifferent.

[Shun]

Yeah I didnt think you'd know, my bad.

Lmao

Edit: Even when you just look at the results it shows you who voted for what. Doesn't it automatically show you the results after you vote too? That just makes this so much better...

[Ashe]

Yeah I didnt think you'd know, my bad.

We carefully laced the inside of the votes with watermelon. So far, we successfully got all targets except for Othello.

[Celena]

Ah crap, I didn't know you could click on the actual figures.

Well, DA 09 did say 'preferably', the people who are still left are the ones that vote. He did not say 'solely'.

Anyway, if you exclude those who are not participants, it's 2-0 in favour of doing the finale after this combat round.

I could have sworn that Tamsin, Sophia, Sage, and Ashe were all still in.

[Sage]

Don't be a dick.

I hadn't voted by the time he made that post.

[Ashe]

I'm kidding and you know it.

[Sage]

I'M NOT I HATE YOU MOTHERFUCKER! I'M GONNA KILL YOU IN DA AND THEN KILL YOU AGAIN ON EARTH!!! Nyaaaaargh!!!

[Vad]

Can I watch?
