Whoa don't go saying I have some great programming or advanced math skills here like P0 [and many others] does! (good with spreadsheets, though) Really, though, there are things we can do to help connect users better that are relatively easy. For example, comparing users by the kind of vgm is something I thought might be fun to do, where compatibility stats wouldn't even be required. Metal, "weird", 90's, 16-bit, eclectic, orchestral, Nintendo.... There are many ways we could classify music from which we could obtain all kinds of voter data, just simply saying what % of the time they vote for XXXX classification (some categories would work better than others; e.g. "Nintendo" vote data could be interesting, but it's very broad)
kaonashi programmed the hard stuff, I just stuck it in a website...

For anyone out of the loop, a fun bonus of voting in the contest is that we collect your data and sell it to-- uh, I mean, analyze who votes the same in each match to create a compatibility network: https://p0p0p0p.github.io/src/vgmc14/bracket.html

The bracket makers probably take notes on each song's "kind of vgm" when seeding the matches. If it could be distilled into meaningful categories, I'd certainly be hungry for more data to play around with...

i'd love even more stats and features with it. maybe some programming that doesn't leave those who don't hit the right thresholds out? like if someone's maximum compat is 55%, chaining them to the nearest person with a dotted line?? it definitely left people who DO fit, out of the picture, even tho they certainly have compatibility pairs. i'll definitely be way too busy to deal with that stuff so i hope player0 or haste or whoever will be messing with those stats can come up with some fun new ways to analyze that stuff.
I remember you suggesting this before - I didn't forget! I can do something with the graphs like Haste did in VGMC 13 with that "best friends/worst enemies" spreadsheet.

I already showed my planned first 5 in the Discord guessing games; sharing here as well for informational purposes. I know I felt very silly last year when two of my day 1 noms turned out to be duplicating other people's...

Star Ocean: The Second Story - We Form in Crystals
Oninaki - Battle -Threat-
Etrian Odyssey III - Labyrinth VI - The Vengeful God in the Dark Ocean Abyss
The Caligula Effect: Overdose - Cradle
Final Fantasy III (DS) - Memory of the Wind ~Legend of the Eternal Wind~

I have a bunch more stored away as well, but will decide if I want to use them after taking notes on day 1 noms.
