Rules:

- Listen to both of the songs. Links have conveniently been provided for both songs. Even if Song A is your favorite of all-time and Song B is from a series you hate... Listen. To. Both. (If I have suspicions your vote is not based on a fair and impartial preference, it will be disqualified.)
- Obvious contest rules apply (no alts, one vote per person, no rallying, etc.).
- Please make your voting options clear, rather than burying them in text.
- Each set of matches lasts 24 hours, even if the new one isnt up by then.
- Always vote on the versions of the song provided, not versions from different sources.
- If you know ahead of time that you're not going to be around and you want to vote in advance, post your choices in the discussion/bracket topic.
- Please do NOT post tallies/score updates in the middle of the match, as this has a tendency to directly influence matches.
- You don't have to vote in all the matches, but it'd be cool if you did!

It also wasn't nominated so much as appointed. There were 3 songs that have snubs bracket histories that I tried to squeeze in. I didn't have room for Las Vegas, sadly.

I keep imagining a world where that first match is instead The Road Should End Here v Stella -Part 3- and wonder what went wrong.

Xeus-takes-the-cake-today day.

-Easy-yet-close-ish first match. End of All is pretty weak imo.
-I hope Xeus makes it even farther into the contest. It deserves it.

Xeus >>>>>> Striking the Octopus >> Apollo Justice > End of All (Land)

Hard to rank the last two.

Abstaining in the main match because I actually liked End of All this time around for some reason and now I can't decide.
