[imbehindyou]

Well.. Round of 64 starts tomorrow!

Change of plans. Or votes.

1. Louise (from Aoi Nogami)
2. Chiaki Minami
3. Sakura
4. Nagisa Furukawa
5. Sakura Kinomoto
6. Hanyuu
7. Alicia Florence (from Asuka)
8. Anya Alstreim
9. Hinagiku Katsura
10. Haruka Minami (from Kyubei)
11. Maria
12. Yin
13. Rika Furude
14. Satoko Houjou
15. Kirino Chiba
16. Chrome Dokuro

This is probably final unless Sakura Kinomoto doesn't make it.. then I'm back to Kyubei instead of Haruka..

Bolded are characters that I actually care and like.
Too bad Horo and Kotomi are in same group with Maria, I really like Horo and Kotomi is the only girl from Clannad that I actually like (aside from Nagisa and Fuko who are on positive side/borderline).

Spoiler for Factions:

1. Code Geass
They are in really good position right now despite having 4 characters in one group. Having 4 characters in one group guarantees that 2 characters will advance. C.C. is in a relatively weak group making her easy to advance. Nunnally is in a okay group too, with Nagisa, Rukia, and Lala.

2. Higurashi
They are not in a good position. Having 3 characters in one group puts them in no better position than Code Geass. They are guaranteed one, but not two. Only "safe" ones are Rena and Rika.

3. Clannad
They are certainly not in a good position. Only safe one this round may be Kyou. Nagisa has okay chance of making to the round of 32. It would be best for Clannad faction to give up on Ryou and Mei because if they advance, they are likely to bring more harm than good to Clannad faction (anti). Tomoyo, one of the "strongest" character in Clannad is in danger in Group 9 with Haibara Ai and Katsura Hinagiku.

4. Hayate no Gotoku!
Not in a good position. Hayate faction will likely to give up on Aizawa Sakuya to prevent the formation of anti-Hayate faction. Only one that is "safe" is Nagi. Hinagiku, as mentioned above, will meet with Tomoyo and Haibara Ai (likely to get most of the female votes). Maria meets with Horo and Kotomi, dangerous as well.

5. Minami-ke
Not in a good position. Not one character is "safe" in any way. Chiaki has to fight with Akari (Aria) who gets a popular blogger's support and Ichihara Yuuko (female support). Touma, with 3 Higurashi characters, may benefit from split votes, but no guarantee that Touma's gonna make to the round of 32. Kana basically has no chance as she is grouped with Tomoyo, Hina, and Ai. Haruka, grouped with Yami, Kyubei (female support), and Sakuya, has hard time as well.

6. Others
Horo -- Danger. meets with Maria and Kotomi.
Gintama -- Danger. Kagura and Otae are in same group with Shana and Kinomoto Sakura.
Reborn -- Okay. Chrome is likely to advance in Group 16, and Kyubei has a chance to advance in Group 10 too.
Louise -- Easy. She is in one of the weakest groups in this round.
Conan -- Danger. Mouri Ran is with Sakura (hime), Sekai, and C.C. Ai is in the death group 9.
Shana -- Okay. She should advance.
Evangelion -- Danger. Asuka will fight with Matsuri, Utau, and Alicia. Rei will fight with Nagi, Satoko, and Setsuna.
Aria -- Good. Akari and Alicia should be able to advance, and Alice may be able to join if she beats Tamaki.

What did it take you? A total of .05 zero seconds to decide?

Yep, and It's going to be the second time in a row they both advance, too.

They are trying to conduct open translation for Best Moe Tournament. If you can translate any of the English contents in Best Moe pages, please email me both the English original and the translated work, along with the information what language the translated work is in, and send them to me in multiple format. To minimize the possibility of running into font problems or other language incompatibility issues, it might be prudent to paste the copy of your work in this thread, and in your email while attaching the file in the email: This way, we have at least 3 different ways to access the material. You can translate as much or as little as you want. There is no time limit for this, but I urge haste before we get deep into round of 64 as there are several key matchups in the middle of the upcoming round that can be decided by how much international voter participation we can attract.

Anyone getting the inapprociate code error?

[gaguri]

The code is valid for 24 hours but is dependent on Korean Standard Time, so there may be small difference in change of date between yours and the server (in Korea). Try again some time later, I think it should work.

well, open sourcing means we can all share the human resources, perhaps even help increase the pool of HR. By the way, Best Moe Tournament has REACTIVATED Japanese Language Support ( http://moet.anizone.net/index.php?lang=jap ). If you know someone who is more at ease with Japanese compared to English, this may be a good opportunity to get that person to vote. We will need every vote we can muster in order to prevent a fan club or two dominate the results and put series mojo way ahead of individual character Moe.
