How are you breaking ties, by the way?
I mentioned how I sorted stuff after the completion of the second and fourth rounds? Because it implies that the songs in the higher tiers in those later rounds were up against stiffer competition, and more likely to take a hit because of the quality of their competitiors (or the exact opposite happening for songs at the bottom getting a shot in the arm,) I thought it only fair to favor the songs that did well in the earlier rounds. So I have this goofy formula I worked out so if one song got 10 points early and 5 late, and another got 5 early and then 10 late, the 10-5 gets ranked ahead of the 5-10. There's practically no ties when I use that second filter.

(SoliPants) Meh, not bad. Way too short though.
(NioraptH) too short
(Ed Bellis) eh
I really don't have much to say about this one. It's fun. It's from an old childhood game. And I imagine, for most, it's easily forgettable.
90. Ironsword: Wizards & Warriors II - Level 2
Score: 13/30
Azuarc's Ranking: 82

(SoliPants) This game... I hear this song and I'm reminded of the game, which was just awful. I try not to associate the song with the game, but it's just impossible for me here, I hear this song and I cringe a little.
(xp1337) This time, this is the only song of the 5 I wasn't familiar with. Eh... it's okay, I guess.
(NioraptH) this has that "dead empty castle" feel to it
(Ed Bellis) zzz
I played this game one night at a sleepover party when I was like 12. The only thing I remember about it was jumping around on some clouds, and this tune, which was easily the best thing about my night. (I hated the kid whose house it was.)
89. Final Fantasy Adventure - Let Thoughts Ride on Knowledge

(xp1337) I kind of dreaded this a bit when I saw it. While I wasn't immediately aware of what song this was in particular, I am aware of FFA's music. And there's this thing about me and chiptunes. I wouldn't say we don't get along, it's more... I don't get along with many of them, at least compared to most people, I think. This is not an exception.
(Ed Bellis) the more songs I hear from this game the less I like it
(Kenri) The melody's interesting but I don't really like the samples. YEAH I KNOW IT'S A GAMEBOY GAME but they seem worse than usual.
Wow, such haters. And all three Seiken Densetsu tracks in the bottom 12, tsk tsk. I had forgotten how harsh the samples were on this, and I admit the ritardando isn't worked exactly perfectly, but it's a great melody, and however bad the sample may be it still lets that melody soar. A remake would probably do a great job with this song.
