...aaaaaaaand my only top 10 track left now is Exphere. My next hope is that just one of the remaining Atelier tracks can retire.

Rest assured I WILL get Break the Limit in next year's contest!

If i had to quantify the songs left in c in terms of my hypothetical overall rankings I'm too lazy to actually properly compile...

steelchambers low 40s (like 47 out of the 192 songs) at best, mid 60s at worst depending on mood, Flash Frost not much higher, definitely somewhere in 40s though, at worst high 50s. Studiopolis low-mid 30s normally. Chocolate Missile I believe I already placed around 30ish and I'd say that's still the case. Kill Command a few spaces to its better. Battle top 5.

Incidentally, Romun Empire would've been right next to Studiopolis, that Lord of Vermilion song was maybe 50s and blackstarlight was somewhere in the low teens. BTL was one that kind of fluctuated for me a lot and I have no idea where I'd actually place it. Potentially below steelchambers but not by that much. When it went out it was probably like low 50s for me. Still, point is, while I like it quite a decent amount, it's still the weakest left for me. Not to mention I can confidently say it's been behind at least 7 songs on its side of the bracket for me. Even putting aside chocomissile and blackstarlight, Blue Skies was like top 15, linkage and murakumo were top 20s too, and iirc I voted precious heart in r1 over chocomissile so... yeah. Desire Blue Sky and Sublimation were right around that zone too and were both songs that could've been as high as top 20s depending on my mood (which they were right around the time I did my brackets) though I wouldn't confidently say I'd always go with them over it. Hence the reason I considered the left side way more busted despite the right happening to turn out even better than it

Kill Command < Flash Frost, 22-24

Well, Mycro. I guess you were right. If he hadn't been helping me with the seeding, Torna Battle would've gotten like a 16 seed or something.

Yesterdays Opponents are Todays Ingredients > Ignith of the Final Attack, 26-18
Invitation Flower ~ Autumn > Final Boss Theme, 26-17

I'm not sure if I'm impressed or disappointed that this match is happening in the round of 16. Kinda both, in a variety of different ways.

Looks like my Atelier wish got fulfilled in full! Three-for-three, baby! And we have the first match with two matches from the same game in a LONG time! (I think.) Too bad my favorite was not one of those three...

Sky of Twilight > Invitation Flower > Flash Frost = Yesterday's Opponents are Today's Ingredients >>>> Mystic Pendulum.

I don't know. Maybe I will feel differently in nine months, but it may be time to dramatically reduce my participation in VGMC so I don't get invested in the results.

This is basically the last holdover from the old days that I participate from start to finish. Maybe I should follow suit with what I did with the rest and only be part of the nomination phase and check on the tournament results at the end.

I'd rather see more people doing the opposite (voting in the contest but not nominating). It's kinda lame when people who aren't invested in the contest decide the songs that are in it.

I'm happy to have people participate on either end. I'd rather have both, obviously, but I would not begrudge anyone who decided that they only liked one half of the contest or the other. I know I find nominations much more interesting than moving through the bracket itself.

For those of you who had been laughing at the seeding earlier on, here's your final tally:
Seven 1-4 seeds - crab (1), NWO (1) SCO (2), Flash Frost (2), Servants (3), Douwa Kairou (4), YOATI (4)
Two 5-8 seeds - Chloe (5), Innocence & Emptiness (6)
Three 9-12 seeds - Battle!! (9), Revenger (11), Chocolate Missile (12)
Four 13-24 seeds - steelchambers (14), Invitation Flower (14), Dead Neon City Hell (15), EXSPHERE (17)

Other than the 5-8 group being a little low, this is about what I'd expect.

Gonna use pyresword's template for this I guess. I'm also listing the songs in order from favorite to least favorite.

Top Tier
1. Granblue Fantasy - New World Order
2. jubeat Prop - Chloe
3. Ar Nosurge - Class::EXSPHERE_NOSURGE;
4. Atelier Rorona Plus: The Alchemist of Arland - Flash Frost

Great
5. Steins;Gate - Skyclad Observer
6. Xenoblade Chronicles 2: Torna ~ The Golden Country - Battle!!
7. Atelier Ayesha - Invitation Flower ~ Autumn
8. GITADORA OverDrive - Douwa Kairou
9. Crystar - Revenger
10. Atelier Ayesha: The Alchemist of Dusk - Yesterdays Opponents are Todays Ingredients

Pretty Good
11. Terraria Calamity - Servants of the Scourge (Theme of the Sentinels of the Devourer)
12. Terraria Calamity - 1NF3S+@+!0N (Theme of Crabulon)
13. Cytus II - Chocolate Missile
14. Demon Truck - Dead Neon Hell City

Okay
15. Baldr Heart - Innocence and Emptiness

Bad
16. Pinball Fantasies - steelchambers2

Innocence and Emptiness and steelchambers2 are in a bit of a limbo state where half the song falls into the tier above and the other half falls into the tier I put them in. Douwa Kairou's the one ambiguous song right now in terms of ranking. Could put it anywhere from where I have it now to right below Yesterday's Opponents depending on how I feel about it. The fact that 14/16 songs remaining are at least "pretty good" to me is, well, pretty good! Even though many of the retirees are songs that I wanted to see some of my favorites beat, it's still a great selection of retirees for me!

4. Flash Frost
5. Chocolate Missile

9. Yesterdays Opponents are Todays Ingredients
10. Servants of the Scourge (Theme of the Sentinels of the Devourer)
11. 1NF3S+@+!0N (Theme of Crabulon)
--- Have good qualities, but stylistic mismatch

14. Revenger
15. Chloe
16. Douwa Kairou

Thinking about worth here, special alternate notes on how I'd rank them in their in their individual bracket paths thus far (so out of 12 songs each)

Innocence and Emptiness (7th)
Douwa Kairou (7th)
Chloe (T7th)
Revenger (4th)
1NF3S+@+!0N (5th)
Skyclad Observer (4th)
New World Order (6th, maybe 7th)
Servants of the Scourge (3-5th)
steelchambers2 (5th)
Chocolate Missile (4th and all but one songs here are in the top half)
Battle!! (1st, though 2 songs were at least close)
Flash Frost (3rd)
Yesterdays Opponents are Todays Ingredients (7th)
Invitation Flower ~ Autumn (3rd)
Dead Neon Hell City (5th)
Class::EXSPHERE_NOSURGE; (3rd, wow that division was super imbalanced)

Not perfect but pretty acceptable.

Do YOU guys think Division D is the best, though?

Yeah, you could say Im pleased with many of the retirees. I guess my complaining really isnt warranted. Also, no "mediocre" retirees this contest is a PLUS. , even though there have been quite of few of those in past contests...*cough* VGMC 11*cough*

And yeah, Im super biased towards Atelier! I never even played the series, but I experienced an intimate moment with Autumn the other day that led to a few tears....

Divisions B, C, and D are all pretty close IMO. I could argue for any order of them really, depending on my mood. Would probably be inclined to say B > D > C though. EXSPHERE can only carry two eh Atelier songs so far. B is probably the most solid overall.

division a is non-canon

Haste_2 more like Gust_2


Lol, that's true. But in my defense, I'm not the only one who's ranked Gust tracks high. Mycro's rankings indicate three of my four favorite Gust tracks are in his top four retirees. (Flash Frost is, of course, the odd one out) It's not so much that we're ridiculously biased towards Gust, but more that all of our other favorites lost early. Granted, we have massively different opinions when it comes to most of the other retirees....

I have a fun idea for the future... we could split VGMC into parts, by voter type. Informally, of course. What I mean is this: split the voters into two or more teams: for example, they could be Team azuarc and Team MycroProcessor. What team you're on is based on the VGMC user-matchup stats at the end of the previous VGMC. As for new voters.... eh, they may have to excluded or placed in their own group.

This way, if you aren't satisfied with the normal results, you can see what your team voted for. Of course, all matches that take place would still be based on the official match winners.

I'm not sure how big the difference in the voting habits would be with the two groups, though. I'll have to do a little vote sampling from this contest to see if there's a significant difference between teams. Three or four groups might work better than two.

Wow... Revenger's last three matches are as follows: winning by two votes, winning by one vote, and winning by one vote. It's truly the little vgm that could.

The ENDYMION match was also decided by one vote, there was just a vote that looked like gibberish and didn't count
