At least you only have 3 at the bottom, 1 of which is already out.

Scrap I/O > Hopes and Dreams, 14-13

It was 14-14

Thank you all for pointing out the actual tally in the thread in case there had been a error, but no, the result of 14-13 stands.

At the risk of looking like this is a callback to last year's finals (which also affected Undertale), I'll point out that it's not the first time I've removed a vote in the contest, just the first that anyone has noticed or that it actually affected the outcome.

.....whose vote and why?
---

I don't discuss these details publicly, but you're welcome to PM me.

Lock him up

Results, day 50:
Eleganza (Cthylla Stage) < EXEC_LINCA/, 9-15
Six Feet Thunder > Brickworks, 13-11
Awe of She < The Final Song, 9-15

LINCA takes over from Brickworks as the lowest seed remaining.

oh ya go my final song
---

Hmm, I was playing Yesterday's Opponents in my head in the shower this morning and it turned into The Battle for Everyone's Souls. How strange.
---

I'm guessing you just subconsciously realized you wanted to listen to a better song tbh.

ok fine I like Yesterday's Opponents also bit Battle for Everyone's Souls is still better.
---

Well, like the transition from Yesterday's Opponents turned it into post-transition BFES. Was neat.
---

Results, day 51:

Monolith > Yesterday's Opponents are Today's Ingredients, 13-11
Id ~ Purpose > In the Final, 13-11
Sky-Clad Observer > This Journey Without End, 18-6

First match featured a few wild swings back and forth, while In the Final was always playing catch up. Grats in advance to Monolith for being our first known retiree. =p

Thank god my non-vote didn't cost Id.
---

Well at least Id only took out 1 good song before it's inevitable R4 exit this year.

RIP Blue Desert Hotel.

...I'm sure that's the one you meant right?
---

RIP my Blue Desert Hotel. RIP my noms and supports with Brickworks now out

He can only be referring to Spike in a Rail.
---

I'm obviously referring to that other FE song I nominated that I'd got in over. That makes sense I think
---

Results, day 52:

Bodhisattva Kill < Emil Karma, 11-14
Fateful Confrontation > Sexualizer, 13-12
Flight of the Bamboo Cutter ~ Lunatic Princess > Rave On, 14-9


There goes bracket.

great day
---

Results, day 53:

Whereabouts of Light = Liela Xea, 11-11
Laguerra del Mundo > Into the Light, 13-9
You Are My Hope < A Toccata into Blood Soaked Darkness, 10-11

One light song has fallen to the darkness, while the other barely sustains itself. We'll resolve the tiebreaker once R4 begins so the side bracket doesn't fall behind the main.

those results are causing me pain
---

ya go my emil karma

no laguerra del mundo
---

Whereabouts of Light failed to win because of azuarc's SYSTEMATIC CAMPAIGN to dissociate Legend of Heroes games from their series

fight for full titles!
---

Results, day 54:

Nefertiti > Battle With Magus, 13-8
Boss Battle < Flying Clouds, Drifting Haze, 10-11
Terra > Life ~Faraway Promise~, 14-8

B2 continues to go exactly according to the seeding, with 1>4 and 2>3...if just barely. According to that logic, FCDH should stop Nefertiti next round.

ya go my FCDH
---

And I'm sure Nefertiti is hurt soooo bad because it's not listed as being from Mana Khemia: Alchemists of Al-Revis. Stop being a dipshit, Lefty.
---

god I wish that would hurt Nefertiti

if only

Results, day 55:

J-E-N-O-V-A < Sunshine Coastline, 10-15
Big Blue > Blue Radiance, 13-10
Zoo > The True Mirror (Guitar Version), 13-10

Sorry, folks. Taking a sick day here. Got slammed yesterday with what I hope is a 24 hour bug. Limped home last night and went right to bed. Woke up 16 hours later. I hope I counted correctly -- it's tough when both of the titles in one match are very similar and you're not all there to begin with.

(12:42:04) haha wow, blue radiance lost
(12:42:29) can we please stop nominating it now

only if you stop nominating TBIYTC

you seem to be mistaking those lines as my own commentary

it is not

Can we all at least agree to bury MARIA six feet under?

no

maria, tbiytc, and blue radiance are all pretty terrible noms at this point
---

I probably won't nominate MARIA again next year actually, after replaying Ayesha twice there's other tracks I'd like to push for

Good, because there are actually solid songs (sup Mystic Pendulum)
---

You can nominate YOATI again though, that one's good
---

Oh hey, I remember that song. The one that was leading the field in nominations, and then people withdrew from it to support other stuff and it ended up getting cut.

Results, day 56:

Battle Music < Daddy Mulk, 9-17
Butterfly's Invitation = Undertale, 13-13
World Revolution > Fury Sparks, 15-10

Did an extra 10 hours of voting help or hinder? Doesn't matter. We have two tiebreakers to resolve now, and then we'll move on to the retirement round.

We should just nominate things not from Atelier games tbqh

Or you can try nominating good things that can actually win.

But aren't these two mutually exclusive?
