A few notes:

-Tiebreakers were factored in by adding up all votes cast for a song across all days. For instance, Passing through the Forest/Different World 1 was counted as a 55-58 win for Passing.
-Secret of the Forest and Southern Twilight are indeed tied, as they both lost 31-32 to Passing. human's figure ended up about 0.004% ahead of Yggdrasil.
-Battle of Blizzard Bridge is the highest-ranked song to have lost in round 1, while Mechonis Field is the highest that lost in round 2 (curiously, above everything that lost in round 3). Just imagine if Kaze No Ne had gone the distance!
-Because there were very few blowouts, and even fewer in later rounds, most songs end up looking pretty good, with only the bottom 10 being projected to get below 30% on Passing through the Forest.
-As a point of comparison, in Isoleucine's bracket in VGMC14, the second-highest song only got 38.63% on it - that number would be 31st here. (Incidentally, that second-highest song? Move Me. Foreshadowing at its finest!)
-Pour one out for our ultimate loser, Block Ball Stage 5 - not only is it behind the biggest chain of losses, but a lot of those losses were pretty decisive. And pour another for eda edovi, which despite losing directly to the winner ended up at the bottom.
