I am excited for the Fiesta.

So I think last time I did this (some years and one OS flattening ago) I did it with the GBA version + Fiesta patch, what's the best GBA emulator these days? Still VGBA?

It's time, but I'm going to do something different this year. Everyone loves quadzerks, but how about quad geomancers or quad red mages? I'll throw in $10 per regular job that someone does a quad run of, and $20 for Freelancer/Mime/Gladiator/Oracle/Cannoneer. Some of those runs will be pretty miserable, but it's for a good cause, and let's face it: thread regulars have done worse.

Big time fun with this last year, it was my first time playing FFV and I even got Omega & Shinryu - which might have been impressive with a team other than the one I got, which was, uh... BLM/MYS/NIN/CHM...

In my defense doing a large chunk of the game without healing was hard as a first timer even if the lategame was just a drinking contest. At least I beat FFV! No way that job luck holds this year.

If I get really bored this year I might try to look up how the battle RNG works to see if I can even pull it off with memory manipulation.

Once I've removed enough RNG to actually defeat him I'll try to set up a script that iterates through all 65,025 possibilities and see if any of them result in victory. That will take a while to run though

I decided to set up a separate run with Earthbreakers since you can theoretically get 4 of them and they hit harder. When it hits Omega it can do 9999 so you only need 6 hits instead of 10+, it has an 80% hit rate instead of a 90% hit rate like the rune axe, but it still improves the chance to 1/244,140,625 instead of 17/500,000,000,000,000 because you need fewer hits which is a huge improvement and almost looks doable.

Theoretically if I try every RNG setup for 3,725 different setups there's a good chance of everything lining up, and each attempt takes only about 5 seconds so it could finish sometime in the next 40-50 years

I always do that for every run, because I determine who will be what job based on who has the best sprite for said job.

I can't actually put my finger on which of those sounds more miserable.

Blue/Bard/Black/Ninja is a good team

Will they rearrange the jobs so they don't have to use only Blue until after the 3rd crystal?

Beating every single boss with Goblin Punch actually sounds like a fun challenge. You'd probably need a Chemist to make it feasible though.

Legendary Weapon Charity Sale!

In order to raise money for charity, let's all sell the legendary weapons! I'll be donating $0.10 for each of the 12 legendary weapons sold.

I'm sure Omniscient will be glad for the extra company.
