Info Manga Wars 2017 - Award Ceremony

[Sky]

Ladies and gentleman,

again it's been roughly six weeks since we started the first edition of our very own Manga Wars.
There have been many wonderful fights with some surprises left and right and even more importantly, there has been a lot of salt.

Clearly, our beloved Manga deserve this stage and not me or the rest of the staff. Hence I will keep this short.

Nevertheless I wanna thank all of you who made this event possible.
Especially you who is just reading this post. You made this event enjoyable and fun and without you, we would never have turned this into the living salt hell of envy and hatred we all love so much.

Let's get started, shall we?

One vote difference... You did well Orgz . Congrats Magi.

They work the same way but I found this event more unbalanced than the WW/HW. Campaigns help but manga popularity outshines it most of the time. FMA's victory is a good example. It is not the same when it's about characters.

 

[Erinyes]

congrats to the winners !

this was a great contest, huge thxs to @Sky and for all the staff for the organization, great thxs to all the competitors and congratulations for the campaigns that were a lot of enjoyable, i had a lot lot of fun.
Also Im glad tpn managed to make it to round 3, @Jammin was fearsome

but hope people will get interested to it and will enjoy reading it (@Demonspeed hope you read and like it)

Also great thxs to everyone's promotion especially for the manga i've never get the chance to read and that now im looking forward to reading them Asap #punpun

Im sad hxh is only 3rd but i love both fma and op too, so im fine But now i guess @Organizized will hate me forever because of my indecisive vote ?

 

[Aizen]

Gratz to all 4 nominators that made it to the semifinals/final! You all deserved it with amazing campaigns and showing a ton of passion for your series. Also thanks to all the staff that were involved, it was a great event.

 

[Demonspeed]

Yes, I will try to read most of the manga nominated.

 

[Purity of Magi]

Oh my, that was a close battle! Orgz you seriously did a great job to get this close to FMA. I haven't seen someone done that yet, props man! You were awesome.

Anyway, I want to thank my supporters. I want to thank all my enemies in this competition. I want to thank all my backstabbers and I want to thank all the salty people! You guys were great and quite entertaining of course. That is my recognition for you all!

Okay enough with this. Now to the real talk.

Seriously, I must say that FMA really deserved to win this. Why? Simple. Because I took the effort to nominate it. Do you know how much time it took me to do that? No one even did it, like.. that already shows how lazy people were to not nominate it. Just disgusting. People should be grateful with my effort especially with all the campaigning posts I made for FMA. Like oh god please.... I'm never gonna do that again... that took me too much time and too much effort. Unfortunately, I can't say that about you guys who barely showed any effort towards me and being all mean because I at least did something for it unlike you guys.... thanks a lot for bullying me with that. It left me mentally some scars. Way to go guys..

On the other side.... this part of me must admit.... that actually you guys were really amazing and I admired your campaigning even if it was barely something..... but hey I still admired it! However, in the end only the superior being can win which is obviously me of course since I'm a pure after all, nothing new. But that is all okay! You all still did great for trying to even beat me and that’s what you should remember. It was a fun event! So remember this careful guys.... you guys should know that in the end.....

I'm the winner and you're all losers.

That was it. Cya LOSERS.

Just campaigning for most friendly member by the way as you can see.

 

[Farfalla]

Hey, any mod online? I voted for Magi by mistake in the other event and would like to have it reseted, please. Is it possible? Ty guys.

Spoiler

@Organizized I regret my vote @.@

 

[goldb]

@Organizized I regret my vote @.@

Not yet you don't.

 

[Hermit]

So One Piece lost by one vote eh?
Well, let's hope Luffy and friends find it at the end of their journey

 

[GrySun]

Interesting how close these finals end up being. Iirc waifu wars had a very small difference of, what, 2 votes too. I like both finalists this time so I can be glad about the results either way, though it's unfortunate @Organizized didn't get the win. But in some way 2nd place isn't very new to you eh Orgz?

Congrats to @Purity of Magi. Hard work and dedication paying off.

 

[Lady pompom]

Yay! Only one vote behind! FMA deserved this, it's a masterpiece too, I'm happy One Piece got a good place either.

Now that the war ended, with everyone wounded after such heated confront, time to call the doctors to help the injured people:

Dr. Tenma: I might have lost early in the competition, but I'm still a doctor, count with my help.

Dr. Shinra (the underground doctor): Nee, nee, I've heard this competition was filled with salt, if you were hurt and don't want people to know, come to me, I'll help ya.

Wendy:I'll do my best to heal everyone!

Nurse Joy: Everyone is a pokemon for me, I'll help too.

Captain Unohana: Everybody in line, I'll tend to the wounded.

Tsunade: All those wounded people cause everyone was throwing that damn salt!

Dr. Chopper: I'll help adding sugar to combat all the salt.

Dr. Baek: Sheesh... After such psychological warfare, some of you must have felt the mental pressure, if you think you can't handle it alone, drop by my office, I'm a psychologist.

ANd lastly, but not less important:

Congrats @Purity of Magi!

 

[Arjuna]

The Deserving Manga won

Congrats @Purity of Magi for winning

I thank all organisers for organising such a wonderful tournament

 

[Brandish μ]

Congrats to Purity of Magi for the win. Everyone was calling for FMA, and you put yourself on the line. Rub it in the faces of these peasants who dare complain!

Thanks to staff who set the event up, especially Sky who puts in the work to make these fights. And ty Farfalla for making the banner.

I thought the campaigns were terrific, will be reading a few of these manga for sure. Gotta say Erinyes was particularly entertaining, and she lead the image ammunition used by over 200 (568 in total).

[Farfalla]

Wow Bran o.O

 

[Organizized]

One Piece: 40
Fullmetal Alchemist: 41

Not gonna lie, that does sting a bit.

But on the other hand, I did not think One Piece would actually get second place in the first place, as it were. So...

Thanks to all the people who helped campaign for One Piece. You know who you are. Was great to together show the sort of passion for the series that I haven’t shown for years (sorry I didn’t have time to do more). Also thanks to all the people who made great campaigns for all other series. I’ve already picked up some of them and will likely pick up/reread many more.
Thanks to the staffers for setting up this fun event.
And congrats to @Purity of Magi for coasting on the greatness of FMA. Wouldn’t expect anything else from you. (But seriously, congrats, gg and all that.)

Hey, any mod online? I voted for Magi by mistake in the other event and would like to have it reseted, please. Is it possible? Ty guys.

Spoiler

@Organizized I regret my vote @.@

Hey, you voted for the Manga you liked most, so that’s fine. Especially when it’s FMA. Can hardly blame you for not valuing our friendship at all.

Interesting how close these finals end up being. Iirc waifu wars had a very small difference of, what, 2 votes too. I like both finalists this time so I can be glad about the results either way, though it's unfortunate @Organizized didn't get the win. But in some way 2nd place isn't very new to you eh Orgz?

Not gonna lie, this stung a little as well.

Now I’m gonna find a new set to wear and pretend this hasn’t affected me at all (whilst in reality it’s forever etched into my soul as one of life’s great defeats).

 

[TotalEconomist]

....

Can we make @Purity of Magi badge the worst character from FMA please?

Congrats, I guess. I am still salty you won for basically doing nothing for the most part.

Also Husbando Wars is going to be tough for me, since I can't decide between Ramen Master and my favorite trap.

 

[Demonspeed]

my favorite trap.

Who is it?

 

[TotalEconomist]

Who is it?

[Lambu]

I forgot to vote in the end...
Im sorry orgz, now I feel responsible for magi's win

Well, all jokes aside, it was a very entertaining event, thank you @Sky for making it possible! And of course thank you to all the nominators, they all did a great job promoting their series until the end.

​

Congratulations @Purity of Magi for the win! Winning without trying, thats something not at the reach of everyone, even with FMA.
Congratulations @Organizized for the second place! You fought well and made with One Piece a good vs in the finals
And finally congrats @kira for completing the podium with HxH. @Gryffindor was a very tough opponent with Gintama.

See you all in the next event!

 

[Arjuna]

Oh yeah congrats to @kira and @Erinyes for making H x H come third

And congrats to @Organizized and @Gryffindor you two nearly came close to victory.
