This is the new thread for the VGM Compatibility Project (or Rate the VGM 2.0), hosted by rwlh and I (Superb)! We hope you've discovered some good VGM and maybe had some new insight into your compatibilities. Here's hoping that trend continues!

The project aims to provide an opportunity for people to better understand their own taste in VGM, and to see which other individuals in the community share their opinions on music the most. The similarity (or compatibility) between people is calculated over time through song ratings contributed by the community. In addition, this project also serves as another opportunity to discuss songs you like, share interesting songs you've found, and discover new music you haven't heard.

The main hub of the project is on Discord. If you're interested, please consider joining the server for it here: https://discord.gg/Uzb63Ef - Joining is not required, though. We would like to open the floor to as many people as possible, which is what this thread is for.

Project Structure

1. People nominate songs they'd like to see rated.
2. Nominations are semi-randomly selected each day.
3. People rate the daily selected nominations out of 10.
4. The scores are added to the compatibility sheet and the compatibilities are calculated.
5. People view the results, the compatibilities, and discuss them.

This thread may be used for all of these things. You can nominate songs, you can rate the daily songs, and discuss whatever you want to discuss.

The results can be viewed using this spreadsheet: https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1meEpo_8AqMfJzIt5fAc4Er8UUpgo4pp12wgGkJvEbZ4/edit?usp=sharing - Pick a username in the top left, and it'll show you that user's results table in the middle, ranking how similar they are to everyone else in the project from most similar to least similar. Just be aware it may take several seconds to update, depending on your connection and device.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask!
