Links have conveniently been provided for both songs. Even if Song A is your favorite of all-time and Song B is from a series you hate... Listen. To. Both. (If I have suspicions your vote is not based on a fair and impartial preference, it will be disqualified.) - Obvious contest rules apply (no alts, one vote per person, no rallying, etc.). - Please make your voting options clear, rather than burying them in text. - Each set of matches lasts 24 hours, even if the new one isnt up by then. (Matches do not begin until at least 10:00 EDT.) - Always vote on the versions of the song provided, not versions from different sources. - If you know ahead of time that you're not going to be around and you want to vote in advance, post your choices in the discussion/bracket topic. - Please do NOT post tallies/score updates in the middle of the match, as this has a tendency to directly influence matches. - You don't have to vote in all the matches, but it'd be cool if you did! .

The wildcards allowed us to test the accuracy of x-stats to some extent! And transitity, too, I suppose, if we look at inidividual voters rather than vote count. I've yet to really test much of it, though.
First match I'm pretty confident in my vote decision, but it's a weird day so I guess I'll listen to them both again tomorrow. Thermosphere has continued to grow on me, and it's honestly probably top five in the whole bracket at this point, with some chance (maybe >5%) at ending up as my #1. (Yeah, I still haven't bothered ranking my top music from this contest) Either result I'm happy with because it's an actual nom vs. a planned nom of which deo beat me to the punch!

Midnight Lady still feel very strongly about match 1 today to probably an irrational degree because of how that 4pack had 3 of my top songs of the whole tournament and Thermosphere is one of them!! so! I hope it wins! like Moonstruck isn't even "bad" but I really want one of my top ones to come out on top from that --- luigi says: "and" ... Copied to Clipboard!

Moonstruck Blossom (45/64) < Thermosphere (4/64)
The Filthy Mind (Theme of the Hive Mind) (23/64) > Midnight Lady (21/64) Second match is pretty close as you can see, but Filthy Mind does a better job at sticking with me and that's my decider right now. First match is probably closer than the rankings suggest but still not too hard. Those synth runs at the start of Thermosphere are not fair. --- As a guru, only azuarc truly knew what it meant to Reach for the Moon. ... Copied to Clipboard!

25. Kirby Triple Deluxe - Moonstruck Blossom [8]
vs. 46. Einhander - Thermosphere [6] What I probably had: Moonstruck Blossom > Midnight Lady? Maybe? Moonstruck Blossom still somewhat overrated by the rankings, which I should probably fix. I still prefer it over Thermosphere though. - 59. Terraria Calamity - The Filthy Mind (Theme of the Hive Mind) [4] vs. 29. Beatmania IIDX 25 Cannon Ballers - Midnight Lady [7.5] What I probably had: Battle YAS 2 > Bitbop Midnight Lady is definitely my favorite Cinderella run of this year's contest. My opinion of it has only grown over the contest. Will it be the first wildcard to retire? I hope so! - Votes: Moonstruck Blossom Midnight Lady ... Copied to Clipboard!

Midnight Lady Holy crap, there are still songs in the bracket that I'm hearing for the first time? You'd think by Round 4 I'd have heard them at least once. (First match) Anyway this day is relative crap, with a game that rarely disappointed (Terraria Calamity) doing so and a game that had done nothing but disappoint (Kirby Triple Deluxe) winning the day. None of these songs really deserves retirement although Moonstruck Blossom is at least acceptable. --- Also known as Cyberchao X. Now let us all sing the praises of azuarc, Guru champion. ...
