Completed rankings and final scores for all but the most imposing, behemoth soundtracks (Yoshis Woolly World and LittleBigPlanet). Will listen soon but I want to take my time so that the rankings are somewhat authentic. It truly does become exponentially more arduous as the track counts increase.

Final scores are impressionistic. Theres no formula, so no one should read too deeply into them.

Highest overall score: Gimmick! (NES)

Stier tracks:
The Smurfs Nightmare, Ending youtu.be/DJJg-niIxI4
Socket, Time Trial youtu.be/YP1DxAgRUew
Gimmick!, Slow Illusion youtu.be/6qgoGV1TB6k
Gimmick!, Lion Heart youtu.be/jLg_wbFvPOU
Super Mario Bros. 3, Overworld 2 youtu.be/2sH-l2xN3gU

MMX5 continues to grow on me; thats what I chose to listen to while doing this update. May have to boost a few of those scores later on.

Spreadsheet link:
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/11iJ-2-VgEujoQtpwO4fTWeDeMHobJr_rYbPgFneSzSk/

For the next wave of nominations, I am looking for:
Five 2D sidescroller games originally released between 19952004
Five 2D sidescroller games originally released between 19831994

Each user may nominate up to 1 game from the first category AND 1 game from the second category. However, all the nominations should come from users who did not nominate anything in the original topic.

Thanks to everyone who contributed so far, theres been excellent variety and its all been worthwhile.

Can't look these up right now, but just a heads up based on what little I know about the PC-98 library: if a game contains lewd content/"suggestive themes," it isn't going to be eligible.

I will check out the music anyway but I would prefer not to include potentially risque stuff on the official list.

Dunno. I probably did not pick the most correct track listing. Have also seen Overworld 2 referred to as the games Athletic Theme which makes way more sense.

YWW rankings up very soon

I'd rather not do MapleStory at the moment because there are too many tracks and the info about them is pretty disorganized. I might come back to it eventually.
