Lurker > Toxtricity

i'm glad you found what i've sent you valuable!! if you especially liked the darxide track, that ost is very self-consistent in style/sound, so i'd definitely recommend the whole thing to you

and thanks so much for the...thank yous, and well wishes. i'll still be popping in here and there, it was just unhealthy for me to be tethered directly to a social center and event with as much of the specific energy as vgmc had. i'll still sporadically be around to whatever extent i can, but pretty minorly

i apologize; but i think i can not continue to host this contest, at least not for the remainder of this year. i'm giving everything to deo and even my participation this year will be distant and minimal if at all.

(i may still do some amount of work behind the scenes [probably finishing the bracket construction i've already sorta helped start, and am very used to doing], and deo has already told me he is capable of running everything 100% on his own if i had to leave anyways. but myself intersecting with a large social group at this time and having the weight of being responsible for as much as i've made myself responsible for broadly, is not a good idea for me to entangle myself with at this time in my life)

i really wanted to stick it out, but there are some serious issues for me at this time in my life (both psychological and physical. and even just bad timing in other ways) that me focusing on any degree to this contest---very distinctly, has been making worse. in ways that i anticipated, and have even dealt with their intersection with vgmc in previous years even. but they are far worse this year than in any previous time. i'm putting myself in danger by forcing myself to see this through just out of a sense of seeing it as my 'responsibility' and not wanting to come across as someone flaky and irresponsible. but it is probably not worth it

deo has always done some of the heaviest lifting anyways since we took over (last year i constructed most of the bracket, but after that...my main time sink was mostly just doing almost all the composer finding and loop point finding myself, a feature that i'd willingly added that wasn't even there before. this year amazing people like uf8/az/p0 have been slaving away finding all the loop points for me, and robin and plenty of others have wonderfully researched composers as well!! thank you so much to all of you!)

when deo and i took over, i explicitly said i wanted someone else to fall back on (hence, willingly having the contest have "2 co-hosts" rather than one host, deo being the other in this case). because i knew i had these issues, and might need someone to fall back on at times. i was hoping i would never have to completely fade away, but i think it's time, at least for the time being.

thank you to everyone who's helped out this year in any way, who i may have neglected to mention. but it's time for me to at least temporarily step back from b8 for now. ideally i will return next year (or even next month? who knows), but if i don't, i'm very happy to have known everyone who's part of this community for as long as i have

(really, many times in the past few years i've said "my favorite community" is "board 8's vgm crew", and i do mean it when i say that. it's not just empty flattery. there's experiences i cherish that i can only have with this group of people, doing the activities we do together. vgmc IS one of them, but if i am to heal from my the quite severe issues i deal with, i need to step away from the particular stimulation of this environment---as well as away from many other things, for quite a while.)

i MAY try to pop back temporarily into the discord sometimes for vgm guessing games specifically on weekends still, but don't count on that. and for other reasons, i'm going to have to be away from the internet entirely for months, at some undetermined probably 3 month time-interval at some point within this year. so i'll be pretty distant for a while, but my goal IS to be fully-functional and back everywhere around 2023 if i can; and i'm not planning on totally abandoning everyone. because i love you all and what you've provided as an enriching experience to my life

sorry this post is all over the place and articulated in a convoluted way, but tldr:
- i'm leaving due to serious issues with my brain and body; that trying to remain attentive to this contest has made even worse
- i will ideally be back and still co-hosting in vgmc17 if i can.
- i might sporadically pop back in for various things as soon as even this weekend---who knows?! but i should not be counted on to be able to be around right now.
- i love this community, and wish i didn't have to leave it even partially. and i apologize for any inconvenience or to anyone who will miss me during my currently-undetermined-intensity-of-absence absence

deo will do a great job he's run entire contests himself before and those turned out to be so cool.

thank you for hanging out with me and i will see you all at the time i am ready to see you again! whenever that is

regarding prime. one thing we're intending to do, is for the match that contains it to be very late. and repeatedly advertise that it might be worth everyone's time to listen beforehand on whatever day is most convenient for them (rather than expecting everyone to do it within the same limited 24h span of time)

will that help? i don't know, but people on the discord did do a listening party to listen to it all beforehand too. so i think it's safe to say we're ok with "you have listened to this in full, once, at some point relatively recently. we're not going to make you do it [specifically in this exact 24h window] "

put it on in the background during a commute? whatever is convenient. as long as anyone voting in the match listens to it before the match..

i would probably not make as much of a big deal out of suite photoconductivity because that's not /that/ much longer than some tracks we've had in the contest before. but if anyone wants to get the match for that one out of the way beforehand for similar reason, i think it's a good idea.

(note: i'm not actually sure we're putting photoconductivity vs prime specifically as we might've half-serious half-joked about---some people have expressed not wanting it that way. but both toward the end makes sense for the reasons stated of giving lots of warning about them beforehand)

((oh. i see i was too late to make this lengthy post already))

also since you seem to really like that style of sega genesis bass sound i am going to recommend you a few songs that really go ham with that:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YGnrDaFaRlA
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=K9Wq5d50wGs

(but honestly socket is full of a version of that kinda sound more similar to chemical plant / sunrise purple, so...again, you should check out the Socket ost hahaha)

and you mentioned that lower bwooom sound from the first few. not sure these exactly hit the mark for you but a couple ideas:
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LBSH2p_a1GE
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=utAo36-jzas

this might cover both at the same time??
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=67fZSJKQfkQ

maybe none of these were what you're looking for at all, but hopefully it's a decent starting point. just throwing things at the wall! i wish you best of luck on your quest for "sega genesis songs that are using the sounds you are looking for"

hi. i am someone who at one point in my life was so obsessed with sega genesis music that i listened to every sega genesis ost in alphabetical order multiple times.....

synths (especially very strange synths like the genesis) can be difficult to talk about in words since they're not "real", so i don't even think you're lacking language...it's just abstract sounds meaning the language to describe them is best abstract too! i mean...i could get technical about things, but mostly even other people who are really into technical aspects of synth sound design would probably just say "it sounds like bwoooom when i turn this knob on the synth" too, tbh.

anyways, my first instinct is to say.....if you like "Battle Mania Daiginjou - Sun Rise Purple", you should check out the entire ost to the game "Socket" (aka Time Dominator). Socket features the same 3 composers as battle mania daiginjou, but more consistently in the style of sun rise purple than anything from battle mania daiginjou (a lot of people i know suspect that sun rise purple was a scrapped/unused song from socket that they snuck into the game, or something)

https://project2612.org/details.php?id=34

before i got completionist about it, when i was early on into trying to listen to genesis music, i'd browse project2612 and then go onto the downloads page, and click on the composers of any genesis soundtracks i found i liked, and it resulted in branching paths from there---

like i knew i liked sonic 3d blast's music. so i decided to click on the "Masaru Setsumaru" link that you can highlight from the downloads list, and it'd bring me to this page
https://project2612.org/search.php?query=Masaru+Setsumaru&field=composer

and then i'd see "Stellar Assault" which i'd never heard of before. I'd click it and get obsessed with THAT even more., and you c ould just keep going in chains from new composer to new composer from there

or you could just click random songs...do whatever you want of course! but i found this site a very useful resource when genesis music was my primary vgm obsession, which was definitely a substantial period of my vgm listening life

it's especially convenient these days that the site has an embedded player, which it didn't used to

something like that has actually been suggested before...and imo...it honestly sounds awesome as a setup

yeah i had even considered being ok with only 1 nom every [x] hours, as a thing. just to spread the listening order between people out.

literally the only problem i have with that is "i have fun coming up with an order of noms in given block of 5 or whatever so people listen to the songs in a cool order" and "i like listening to a bunch of noms from the same person in a block". but that's definitely not nearly as important as making it easier for everyone's contributions to be heard without a wild bias based around how fast someone was able to post (or even be present online for)...and those same things could happen as long as not literally every day had as small a count as 1-2 noms (but i'm not theoretically opposed to that either)

i mean even cutting things down from 5 to 4 per day would make everything easier at the current participant count

Mac Arrowny posted...

Are they the same type? KCF got like 1 original nom in while Mycro got several?

historically, we've been very similar in terms of difficulty of others' appreciating what we like. i was strategic enough in my init noms this year to a pretty extreme threshold of testing opinions beforehand and "only pushing something i'm reasonably confident will be supported" that i was able to succeed well (plus tastes shifted on both my and others' end to be less excluded than i used to be, these days).

but it wouldn't have gone well for me had i approached more the way i did in the past (the way kcf does now. leaning toward the obscure and caring more about representation of our less common game or music interests than anything)---i think this is a very valid way to approach, and is my preference for how to approach, typically. this is more what nfun was referring to. and the noms i cared about most could only get in thru very permissive thresholds. and both kcf and i have expressed we'd lose interest in the contest massively if this wasn't possible

i am really tempted to support pikmin 2 wistful wild instead here since it needs "more" help than chibi robo which i have just LoCKED; but i will just do what i said i would do first

i am a genius

i will try to replace keeper with the weird chibi robo credits if that's not in from someone else's hand by the time noms end / if i haven't found room from it from something someone else dropped. but if i want this to have a chance at all it's probably smarter to go for it earlier? who actually knows, maybe that's less smart because everyone's distracted by the flood.....

For clarity: what about anti-rallying, like @mentioning someone here in the topic to say "hey so you know I'm removing my nomination/support for x song so you can free yourself up a slot if you like"?

this seems more like making your nom/unnom future intentions clear (which people have been doing and we've not pointed it out as wrong in any way. i think it's /good/ so that people aren't battered with unwanted surprises)

"anti-rallying" in a way that'd be actually against the spirit of the contest would be more like "hey i hate this song, so i will pay you $100 if you don't support it. and i will also double nom a song of your choice if you don't support it"

what you're describing is nothing like that imo

(ok now to actually go back to sleep for real if i can)

for a second time in a row i had a dream with "Flight of the Space Monks" from "Yoku's Island Express" in it, and it was loudly in my head when i woke up in the middle of the night

i think that is a sign i should finally put the plus signs next to it

(in whatever way i can---i will very willingly bring bosh's tunnels (or even marlena or whatever) back if anyone was seriously actually interested in going for it. but this is pretty obviously by far the most obvious choice of thing to cut ;-; to make room for this)

ok time to go back to sleep

we were only planning on extending it if there was like a big push from a LOT of people, but instead the consensus seems to be "mixed/hmm", so it'll open when we originally said. tonight.

(sorry for poor communication. it was probably a bad idea to even express the possibility of an extension on the freeze when we were already leaning no on it + and we should've communicated the freeze earlier/better in the first place. especially if we were going to make it even longer)

barreldragon88 posted...

I'm curious, what's the rationale for not making the nom period two-weeks long? The only disadvantage I see is it would extend the schedule, but not by much. You could still instate a pause period to give people as much time as possible to go through the tracks

we were actually sorta planning going about the extension one day at a time, with observation on how long people seemed to need. it's 24h for now, but if a lot of people ask for it, feeling the need for more time to listen to more of what has been nommed, we can make the pause longer

currently the following noms of mine are at 1/1. and i'd like to be able to support more things! so if they continue to see no support i will replace them with supports of other people's picks. in ideally this order.

let me know if you were seriously considering any of them so i can know to not get rid of them! (and i'll not do this right away, as it's clear some people are still listening thru the playlist and aren't even at day 2 yet)

i do genuinely love all of these, and i had even more backup "random ambient myst-clone songs" on my list because that might be my favorite genre of vgm besides 'dungeon themes' (actually these are basically the same thing)

BUT i really did want to donate my energy to supports by this point. if anyone other than me actually really likes any of these i can bring them back (and i do have some other "random ambient myst-clone nom ideas" if anyone actually cares enough other than me to talk about), but i'm pretty happy that jewels of the oracle pick of all things somehow even locked at all

keeping the bgm_08 and neo-opportunist tho because especially neo-opportunist is something i somehow had forgotten to put on my list of planned noms and only remembered that i'd intended to in the middle of noms

as unsure as i currently am about certain things, there's no way i'm not supporting this and i'd delayed until now for basically no reason so

Oh cool, I guess I'm not alone in the "15 is enough" camp. Good, this means I can continue the end of day 1 and the start of day 2.

yeah same, i told myself i wouldn't nominate anything new past day 3 myself, just so i could save room to support lots of new things rather than only adding to everyone's difficulty of getting thru the nom flood

so NO MORE newly introduced noms from me from here on (i've been saying this repeatedly)

BRACKET PHASE

Population and Bracket Design
After the closing of nominations, the bracket for the contest proper will be populated by songs in the following priority:

1) Songs that were locked before the end of the first week, which were guaranteed a spot into the bracket.
2) Songs with the highest number of nominations, based on total unique votes. (Thus 5 total/5 unique prioritize over 5 total/3 unique)
3) Remaining slots will be picked with a yet-to-be-finalized play-in similar to what was done in the recent Final Fantasy contest! More details will come shortly before nominations close.

...

Bracket Design
Once the field of 256 is finalized, the hosts will work swiftly on creating a bracket based on a number of criteria to make the most reasonable and interesting bracket possible. All the while everyone chants "WE WANT BRACKET! WE WANT BRACKET!" from the sidelines! As soon as we release it, a BracketMaker page will be posted to allow predictions to be made before the contest itself starts. The contest should start in the first part of May.

...

Head-to-Head Matches
Once the topic starts, every topic will go up at 10pm Eastern and have three matches. All six songs will be posted and users can vote for their preferance after listening to all the songs. And by "after listening to the songs" I really mean after listening to the songs! This may by a popularity contest on the surface, but we still would like everyone to judge matches based on the quality of the songs, and not just because a song you know and like has come up. If the hosts believe voting rules are not being followed, your vote could be disqualified, and repeated offences can lead to being barred from voting in matches.

Winners advance, losers are out, ties get re-run, and double tiebreaks will be decided by combining unique voters across all three matches should a tie not be resolved by that point.

...

Retirement
If a song does well enough to reach Round 5, or the Round of 16, then said song has proven its strength and worth as a "best of the best", and will be added to the "retired list" seen previously in the rules.

Greetings all, and welcome to Video Game Music Contest XVI!! We're very glad to see you back if you're returning from last years tie-o-rama, and especially glad to see you if you're just checking us out for the first time!! It's sure to be yet another year of VGM greatness so buckle up and we'll get going right away!

...

What is VGMC?
Video Game Music Contest (VGMC for short) is a single-elimination tournament of video game music that we run right here through GameFAQs forums. The community comes together to determine a pool of songs to populate the bracket with, and then run daily head-to-head matches to slowly determine the best of the best of the field.

The community, you say? Does that mean I can help get songs into this bracket?
Of course! This process of finding songs to use in the tournament is known as the "nominations phase", which is what is starting right now. Anyone and everyone can participate, and the more the merrier! There's a few rules and formats you'll need to follow which will be laid out in the post right below this one, but we'd more than love to see what you can bring to the table!

How exactly does the song pool get decided then?
Everyone who participated has a pool of 30 songs that they can "nominate", which can be either new songs or supporting other songs people have posted. During the two week nomination period, you can move around these nominations as you please, and once nomination time is over, the most nominated 256 songs (simplified, there's some other stuff that'll go down) will be our field for the bracket. Then your hosts will conjure up a bracket, and a while later the bracket will be released and the contest will begin!

Where can I talk to people about the contest?
We have a dedicated channel for VGM on the Board 8 discord, which is linked in the first post above! Find us in the #vgmusic channel!

What kind of stuff has done well in past contest?
Our previous host, azuarc, compiled a playlist of the winners of past contests here: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLW9O9mntH1RElFQnUIoUjxk4_bi-uLbVQ
Additionally, you can see the brackets for previous years linked here: https://p0p0p0p.github.io/contests.html (thank you to PIayer_0 for this beauty of a site!!)

I've been here before, what's the tl;dr on changes this year??
Honestly, not too many changes this time, although the beginning of nominations here will be a bit different:
* Nominations will be staggered so that everyone may only post five uniquely nominated songs every 24 hours for the first six days of nominations. This should help alleviate congestion in these first few days to help people that like to listen to everything.
* Note that as long as you are supporting things and not making new nominations, you could use all 30 of your nomination votes if you would like at any point during this time.

songs being low does not mean i'm knocking them here. this album is insanely good to me, to the point where not placing everything in the top half is painful

uh oh this is one of my favorite albums i might actually have to participate (i thought about it with a couple albums earlier i love; but decided against it. this album i know by heart tho so it should be easy to rank, i've done rankings of it before.

ping me in case i forget by the end of this week. hesitating because i wanna relisten and decide what sorta comments i wanna make if any)

*disclaimer- this may just be a temporary obsession since its out of nowhere and i used to not think much of it, but i really like it. it's held as my 3rd place fav pokemon for the past many months at least

shiftry is not even as close to as cool to me, but it is still my favorite out of this set and getting my vote here

i have been requested to bump this topic

Weavile : )

Sneasel is my actual favorite pokemon (period) pretty solidly. lots of other amazing things in this lineup though, dark type is so stacked
