abstain from the first match since I don't care for either

looks like I missed the Dreams vs. Hope match but I couldn't decide anyway so I don't mind either winning since I like the final songs for both games anyway

It's funny how whenever I try to be fair to the previous day's match by extending the time, nobody ever votes on it. Oh well, makes it easier for me if I don't have to update the votals.


RESULTS:

a) As was probably expected, the Hopes & Dreams match was contested, but went to Chrono Cross. Hope wasn't blown away, but this was a clear victory for Dreams of the Shore Bordering Another World. Chrono Cross advances, 14-8.
b) In a JFF match that saw the one competitor get 5 votes in a row, and none before or after, Grand Blue was able to make up its deficit against Undiscovered Waters. Sora goes to the JFF finals to face Castle Crashers, with a count of 8-5.

You might want to recount there, I got 8-7 in the bonus.

All part of The Plan!

However...

Iron Blue Intention

This reminds me of the Zero-Two/Simon's Theme match in that once more I find myself voting for an inferior version of a song (I much prefer the original Iron Blue Intention) but that even that inferior version is enough to get my vote in a match.

...Oh, and I guess as is standard by now, "I'd take Annul-I mean, Tin Soldiers over both." >_>

I think someone is being way, way too sensitive. Do we have to stop saying "You got owned" in order to not offend black people due to slavery? - wg64Z

Oh, the last two votes didn't get counted on the JFF. =x.

Yes, 8-7. I'm beginning to think I should turn the counting duties over to somebody else.

Bad results for yesterday. =/

staying on the front page is hard work...and my hopes and dreams ended about 12 hours ago. I'll just be left with scars of those times tomorrow.

Iron Blue Intention

I do not care all too much for Iron Blue Intention. This version is okay, but Portrait of Ruin has many better tracks. However, The Plan is even more meh, which is a pity because I have enjoyed most of Frozen Synapse's soundtrack this contest.

Iron Blue Intention; not up for my traditional pointless anecdotal writeups in the next few days after the painfully long one yesterday that honestly took me well over an hour to write thanks to my abysmal typing skills (and headphone issues) :/

10 minutes. Your vote still counts!
