Diamond 7

Now if Taiga doesn't win against Shana, things are going very, very wrong. Taiga already did an upset once when beating the unbeaten Mio, who was the only one to beat Shana.

I'm sure a certain faction will disagree with you. Ruby 7 was just the beginning. Diamond 6 was the next part of their play. Expect bombs in this regular season finale.

Zeroryoko1974 · 2010-08-09, 09:46

A Mio and Yuki win would be a perfect day for me. Don't care about the rest.

Team Rocket Elite · 2010-08-09, 14:58

It's a bit late but here's my usual necklace analysis:

Spoiler for My Predictions for Diamond 7:

The Quest for the Diamond Necklace

The favorite to get the Diamond Necklace is Shana.

As anyone can see Shana is a the huge favorite to win the Diamond necklace. Her SDO is so high that she just needs to beat Taiga to be an absolute lock to win the necklace. All of her old opponents can lose and all of everyone else's old opponents can win and Shana would still win the necklace.

Should Shana lose Saber looks pretty good to win the necklace. She needs to beat Kyou which shouldn't be too much trouble. From there C.C. needs to beat Mikuru and Saber will almost certainly win the necklace.

Hinagiku is third. Shana needs to lose and it's helpful is Saber loses as well. Ruiko just needs to win her match (and Mikuru as well if Saber wins) and Hinagiku can win the necklace. Hinagiku also has to get past Mio somehow.

Azusa is fourth. Both Saber and Shana need to lose. Hinagiku losing is also helpful. Azusa is banking on Kurimu, Mikuru and Yami. If two of them win, Azusa can win the necklace.

Taiga is fifth. Shana, Saber and Hinagiku need to lose. Ikaros and Mikuru need to win to push up Taiga's SDO hopefully past Azusa.

Kyou is sixth. I think this might be the first time she actually has a legtimate chance to win the necklace even if she is sixth. Shana, Saber and Hinagiku need to lose. Konata, Hitagi and Isumi need to win to push up Kyou's SDO while the opponents of her other opponents lose.

Misaka is seventh. She needs Haruhi Holo and Isumi to win while Shana, Saber and Hinagiku lose.

Mio is eighth. Shana, Saber and Hinsgiku need to lose. So does Azusa. Kyou, Taiga and Misaka's old opponents need to lose and maybe Mio can win the necklace.

Zeroryoko1974 · 2010-08-09, 22:04

Crap results are crap. Shana wins, and Mio and Yuki lose. What a horrible day

Last Sinner · 2010-08-09, 22:06

Mikoto beating Yuki was a pleasant surprise. I honestly felt she was #4 and she deserves that seeding.

Most other big results are clearly tactical.

2 certain Australian voters are probably smiling knowing Hitagi got the last qualifying spot.

And of course, Shana won Diamond, as expected, as well as the #1 seed due to Hinagiku eclipsing Mio.

Well, that's all to be said. DE is a whole new game. What various factions will choose to do to a certain faction will determine who gets the tiara.

Rajura · 2010-08-09, 22:15

Awwwwwwwwww... Holo was so close to winning that last one.

I really would have liked her to have finished in the 31-win cluster.

Oh well, I'm proud of her effort this year anyway!

Now on to the DE and flexing my voting muscles... since Holo is not in the mix, my votes are for sale... hahahaha.

Zeroryoko1974 · 2010-08-09, 22:19

Heh, I will take solace in the likelyhood that Shana will come up short yet again in moe tournament

hinakatbklyn · 2010-08-09, 22:30

Not impressed with Kyou losing, Hitagi knocking Rin out of the top 16 and Shana taking the #1 slot.

What did impress me big time was that Hinagiku is still winning. And as good as Mikoto is, I had no faith in her beating Yuki. Good thing she proved me wrong there. Now I wait until DE to find out if any of my favorites can win this year as well.

Basically sums up my feelings entirely. I'll be backing Taiga and Mikoto for sure.

Ithekro · 2010-08-09, 23:16

Hmmm, Fate lost again?
Mio lost and Yuki lost, but not from a lack of trying.
Hanyuu won, so there.

Also Yui seemed to be going for overkill on Mafuyu as Ui goes for overkill on Ushio.

Note: The majority of the necklaces are held by JC Staff characters this year (three by Shana alone) while the remainder are held by KyoAni characters.

I gave my predictions and reasonings a couple of pages ago, and I'll stand by those reasonings given that the results are finally out. I pretty much agree with the tactical voting part, the only thing about this round is the volume of votes somewhat throws me off. So while there was probably still tactical voting, it's effect was probably diluted somewhat.

Very surprised Mikoto managed to beat Yuki, but again, the volume of votes could explain that result, as well as others. Sad that Rin lost, but somewhat expected, she seemed to be losing steam while Hitagi gaining. Still, I'm perplexed that she seems to get no favours from the Saber fans. Saber managed a good win today (where I thought Kyou might've won), yet Rin can't catch a break. Though I guess the fact Hitagi drew almost as many votes as Saber might mean she could actually be a force. At least Hitagi'll have to face Shana.

I have to admit a part of me was happy Hina beat Mio, but at the end of the day, I was hoping for results to pan out so that Mio and Azusa, while Shana and Taiga end up in the same schedule section for DE. At least now we should get 1 decent final match. I guess I would've taken it if Mio and Shana swapped places, but what I definitely didn't want was Taiga to fall into Mio and Azusa's half. This made all the more sweeter when Yui ends up in Mio and Azusa's group, while Nagi ends up in Taiga and Shana's. This is entirely assuming the forecasted schedule the guys here put up is infact definite.

As for the necklace and final league standings...can't say I really care anymore. Necklaces seem a stroke of luck(calculated luck at that), so their novelty wore off on me half way through the season. And while Shana leads the final league standings, the fact that Hina has the same points, and that Mio should probably too, makes it seem like not so grand a feat(and at worse, even tainted). Her win last year looked better.

Finally have to give props to Minatsu for a nice final win. I thought she could win 25 matches, but she only got 23. Still, a fine showing for a first timer I think. Also nice to see Mihoko get a good amount of votes. Still blown away by a huge Tsukasa vote, but I like both girls so I'm still happy. Even Saten Ruiko managed a nice finish.

Now bring on DE, hopefully we get a schedule sometime soon? Be nice to see whether my hoping was all in vain or not.

Team Rocket Elite Senior Member Join Date: Jul 2008	It's a bit late but here's my usual necklace analysis: Spoiler for My Predictions for Diamond 7: Okazaki Ushio [39.92%] vs Hirasawa Ui [60.08%] Shana [52.24%] vs Aisaka Taiga [47.76%] Konjiki no Yami [53.58%] vs Fujibayashi Ryō [46.42%] C.C. [52.56%] vs Asahina Mikuru [47.44%] Sanzen'in Nagi [56.08%] vs Sengoku Nadeko [43.92%] Haramura Nodoka [37.96%] vs Furude Hanyū [62.04%] Misaka Mikoto [51.19%] vs Nagato Yuki [48.81%] Fukuji Mihoko [33.2%] vs Hiiragi Tsukasa [66.8%] Saginomiya Isumi [52.33%] vs Takamachi Nanoha [47.67%] Ichinose Kotomi [59.96%] vs Furude Rika [40.04%] Furukawa Nagisa [62.23%] vs Kawashima Ami [37.77%] Minami Chiaki [44.51%] vs Sunohara Mei [55.49%] Fate Testarossa [48.29%] vs Izumi Konata [51.71%] Sakagami Tomoyo [58.03%] vs Sakurano Kurimu [41.97%] Ibuki Fūko [44.5%] vs Maria [55.5%] Fujibayashi Kyō [48.49%] vs Saber [51.51%] Holo [47.8%] vs Hiiragi Kagami [52.2%] Suzumiya Haruhi [46.08%] vs Nakano Azusa [53.92%] Nymph [37.05%] vs Louise Vallière [62.95%] Kushieda Minori [44.42%] vs Shiina Minatsu [55.58%] Tōsaka Rin [49.88%] vs Senjōgahara Hitagi [50.12%] Ikaros [47.69%] vs Saten Ruiko [52.31%] Akaba Chizuru [44.88%] vs Illyasviel von Einzbern [55.12%] Akiyama Mio [50.39%] vs Katsura Hinagiku [49.61%] Hirasawa Yui [57.06%] vs Shiina Mafuyu [42.94%] Hyūga Hinata [42.86%] vs Kuchiki Rukia [57.14%] The Quest for the Diamond Necklace The favorite to get the Diamond Necklace is Shana. As anyone can see Shana is a the huge favorite to win the Diamond necklace. Her SDO is so high that she just needs to beat Taiga to be an absolute lock to win the necklace. All of her old opponents can lose and all of everyone else's old opponents can win and Shana would still win the necklace. Should Shana lose Saber looks pretty good to win the necklace. She needs to beat Kyou which shouldn't be too much trouble. From there C.C. needs to beat Mikuru and Saber will almost certainly win the necklace. Hinagiku is third. Shana needs to lose and it's helpful is Saber loses as well. Ruiko just needs to win her match (and Mikuru as well if Saber wins) and Hinagiku can win the necklace. Hinagiku also has to get past Mio somehow. Azusa is fourth. Both Saber and Shana need to lose. Hinagiku losing is also helpful. Azusa is banking on Kurimu, Mikuru and Yami. If two of them win, Azusa can win the necklace. Taiga is fifth. Shana, Saber and Hinagiku need to lose. Ikaros and Mikuru need to win to push up Taiga's SDO hopefully past Azusa. Kyou is sixth. I think this might be the first time she actually has a legtimate chance to win the necklace even if she is sixth. Shana, Saber and Hinagiku need to lose. Konata, Hitagi and Isumi need to win to push up Kyou's SDO while the opponents of her other opponents lose. Misaka is seventh. She needs Haruhi Holo and Isumi to win while Shana, Saber and Hinagiku lose. Mio is eighth. Shana, Saber and Hinsgiku need to lose. So does Azusa. Kyou, Taiga and Misaka's old opponents need to lose and maybe Mio can win the necklace. __________________ A miracle that you believe in when you know it won't happen......... is hope.

Last Sinner You're Hot, Cupcake Join Date: Aug 2008 Age: 42	Mikoto beating Yuki was a pleasant surprise. I honestly felt she was #4 and she deserves that seeding. Most other big results are clearly tactical. 2 certain Australian voters are probably smiling knowing Hitagi got the last qualifying spot. And of course, Shana won Diamond, as expected, as well as the #1 seed due to Hinagiku eclipsing Mio. Well, that's all to be said. DE is a whole new game. What various factions will choose to do to a certain faction will determine who gets the tiara. __________________

Rajura My wolfu is >> your waifu Join Date: Feb 2010 Location: Charleston, West Virginia Age: 42	Awwwwwwwwww... Holo was so close to winning that last one. I really would have liked her to have finished in the 31-win cluster. Oh well, I'm proud of her effort this year anyway! Now on to the DE and flexing my voting muscles... since Holo is not in the mix, my votes are for sale... hahahaha. __________________ Primary Faith: Christianity Secondary Faith: Holoism

hinakatbklyn Senior Member Join Date: Nov 2009	Not impressed with Kyou losing, Hitagi knocking Rin out of the top 16 and Shana taking the #1 slot. What did impress me big time was that Hinagiku is still winning. And as good as Mikoto is, I had no faith in her beating Yuki. Good thing she proved me wrong there. Now I wait until DE to find out if any of my favorites can win this year as well. __________________

Ithekro Gamilas Falls Join Date: Feb 2008 Location: Republic of California Age: 46	Hmmm, Fate lost again? Mio lost and Yuki lost, but not from a lack of trying. Hanyuu won, so there. Also Yui seemed to be going for overkill on Mafuyu as Ui goes for overkill on Ushio. Note: The majority of the necklaces are held by JC Staff characters this year (three by Shana alone) while the remainder are held by KyoAni characters. __________________
