-(Isoleucine)- > Snowman, 40-8
Looking Up at the Sky < Toccatina, 17-29
Seize the Truth! = Ricordando il Passato, 23-23

Super Smash Bros. Brawl lost because it was not a cold day in hell. Not even close.
Trails in the Sky 3rd lost because it was too busy staring at the clouds.
The ToC match tied because Tsunami didn't actually place a vote, and the late crowd swooped in to defy me.

So I just realized that 11 of the 14 VGMC XIII participants in ToC R1 won their match! Crazy. Tastes have definitely shifted. The only ones to fall were Chloe, Dead Neon Hell City, and Innocence & Emptiness. They were close losses, too. Granted, those weren't my top choices to be the ones to lose....

I didn't vote for any of those, but I think all of them except for Brain Power are really good! So, yeah, those blowouts made me sad.

Yay for Battle 2! I knew it wasn't going to be very strong, and I was hoping it might draw a weakling, but I'm just happy it got into a contest and avoided being doubled against a great opponent. 3/4 with my noms so far, so I'm pretty happy. It's Undersea Palace that I'm far more disappointed in, actually. Move Me is like... okay, cool complex jazzy chords, but then it repeats the same four-bar harmonic progression over and over with hardly anything interesting getting added. It seems like it shouldn't beat B.T. Dutch, but given that I would expect Undersea Palace to be stronger than Battle 2, I'm a bit nervous about next round.

All I asked was for Dark Man Stage to win a match. Nothing more. I am now satisifed. DMS was my first "10/10" VGMC discovery in my life (I'm relatively new to vgm) with maybe ONE exception. I was FLABBERGASTED when I heard it my first time, having almost forgotten about the original theme(s) from MM5. I probably wouldn't give it a 10 anymore, but it's still among my favorites.

Looking ahead, we got a KILLER round 2 match next round! I'm not sure which one I'm gonna vote for...

I'd like to ask you guys... is there any chance Class:EXPHERE doesn't win the ToC? If there is, who has a good shot at it?

Shovel Knight got slaughtered (cheated) out of jealousy for having found gold! That win totally deserved to go to Shovel Knight >_>.

FINALLY my three nerve-wracking matches are over. Beyond the Darkness, Dark Man Stage, and Second Dark Matter Battle all won! (Funny coincidence, huh...I'm being serious about those being the only three nerve-wracking matches) I finished the round with five of my six nominations intact...! I'm kind of surprised by that.

I've been keeping track of rankings and scores for the five users that have been doing that. Once R1 is over I'll be sharing the stats. It'll be interesting to see the averages...

2 out of 3, but the loss hurts so much more. At least the two wins were the main bracket matches (and DSHN has had enough staying power that I expect it'll be back to try again and hopefully not get such a brutal first opponent).

Same for me lol. So far, I have 2 nominations and a support that lost round 1 in Bracket C alone. Stargazer would've been another support from me too had it not gotten locked via someone else's support right before I was about to support it. At this point, I'm banking on my favorites winning the wildcard and/or Merciless Savior winning it all in Bracket C.
