I really don't think Rikku and Yuna winning constitutes the phrase 'feel good ending'...When ditzes win, they're really, REALLY loud and annoying and make me change the channel and/or feel like ralphing... But, you're obviously entitled to your opinion, as I am to mine. Eh, whatever. You really have to admit that they've had at least three times more luck than any given team in this race, I mean, it's really apparent.

Tell you what. They don't win, and any "they were just lucky" claims I'll believe. They do, you can take your words and eat 'em, topped with whipped cream and a cherry, because I do believe they have some skill. The only luck I think they've had is how they've ended up GETTING to each task. But getting them done? Nope. I don't see the luck in that.

Hell, I didn't say there was no skill involved on their part, I just said they had a lot more luck than the other folks---Let's not misread what I'm tryin' to say here...

I'm still voting for the other underdog of Shinra & Rufus after Part 2, by the way, a feel good ending would be Amarant and Lani. Yuna and Rikku winnning would be "They were just lucky, they don't deserve to win", Shinra and Rufus winning would result in "Okay, they did a good race, overall pretty entertaining, but they don't deserve the reward, one million gil to the guys would rule the world? I don't think so" where as Amarant and Lani would be "Interesting outcome, I would have to say not whom I expected, but they did a damn good job and were able to make it though even with their terrible teamwork, and attitude, and they do deserve the money, pretty good outcome..." Basically. So honestly, I want S & R to win, but A & L is a better, "Feel Good" ending. Feel free to disagree, in fact I encourage it as long as there isn't one week periods in between each post.  |

Haha, yeah, we're all pretty slow posters...
That's interesting about Amarant and Lani being a feel good ending. I always thought it'd be kinda like the bad guys winning if they did, what with the bad cooperation and not liking other teams.
I thought Yuna and Rikku would be a more feel good ending, with the whole underdog thing like Dale said, but yeah, after seeing how they barely held on in the beginning, they really should've been eliminated..
I agree that Shinra and Rufus would be hard to give the money too since they already have money, but they were still fun racers...
I can't wait to write part 3. I'm pretty sure I know who wins (ISN'T TELLING) based on what I think will happen with the rest of the race, but then again, things change... Strago and Relm were supposed to be cut episode two after all, and there's no way the Figaro boys were supposed to go when they did.... The results have always been a shock to even me (which is weird and probably makes me look dumb) so we'll see what happens.
....Team Sephiroth/Jenova wins.

well that would be a miracle, but then "Meteor! Woo, now to stroll to the finish line!" would work but then "Congradulations Sephiroth and Jenova! You've won the amazing final fantasy race! But you killed everyone, so I'm afraid I'll have to give you a 1 year penalty!" and in that time, so barely alive corpses will drag themselves to the finish line and Sephy will say "What? I lost to a barely discernable chunk of shoulder!?" and all will be well...
Well, there really is quite a struggle of who will win. If you ask me, when I first started reading, the people I expected to be the final three were Squall and Rinoa leading, Steiner and Beatrix in the middle position, and swiftly follwing Steiner and Beatrix would be Shinra and Rufus, and if you want fourth, Sephiroth and Jenova. So I was far off with Squall and Rinoa and Sephiroth and Jenova, but Steiner and Beatrix got fourth, so there weren't far behind, and then Shinra and Rufus is in the final three, so I did get them right... ;D

I should go back and add in a fourth possible choice for "who will win". Chunk of shoulder ftw!

I agree with you about the "x-type" ending choices, NS. Good call.

Hehe, you get suspense! You love suspense! It's so.... suspending!
I've been busy with apartment hunting, but I found one! I'm gonna live there! It's gonna totally rock! I'll be fairly busy for a while, but I'm gonna try to write tomorrow (my free-ish day) and crank out the finale. Cross your fingers...

*sigh* No update tonight, guys. My internet connection is VERY bad. I uploaded a picture and it was all fuzzy and misaligned because my internet had to disconnect and reconnect about six times during the transfer. Sorry ya'll, but I need better internet, THEN I'll update. Hopefully good net tomorrow.
