For example, if a certain bracket quadrant has a really low (or high) average x-stat that could indicate the group is over- or under-rated to some extent. There are definitely instances of songs being intransitive or putting up results that seem weirdly big, like Id (Purpose) as was pointed out above. No idea how you'd adjust that and there's not much point since the stats are largely for kicks. I'd put Neo Kobe City on that list, too - it looked really good until it ran into Fogbeasts, and even then went out with some dignity. --- A hero cannot be defeated simply by making him die. <cite>Janus5k posted [p:957226008] in [VGMC] Vid...

-hotdogturtle-- 08/20/21 12:34:57 AM #140:	Now that I finally have some time to post, it's time for my highly controversial opinion that likely very few people will agree with: I didn't like this year's overall field of songs as much as the past few years. I felt this since the end of round 1. There weren't as many new songs that really grabbed me and made me root for them in future rounds. Round 1 was characterized by a lot of "this song is okay, nothing special" vs "I don't really like this song". Not many close matches either, and when there were, it was less "I like both of these, which one should I vote for?" and more "oh, I have to muster up some enthusiasm for one of these". The later rounds were filled with a bunch of "oh yeah, I voted against this song last time". I'm not sure how many of these songs I'll be listening to after the contest, I guess we'll have to see in the next few weeks/months which ones really stuck with me. Of course this isn't a knock against any individual songs or the people who like them. I fully acknowledge that I'm in the minority here and most people I've seen have loved this year's field, so it worked out better for most people. Overall reception was good and participation was huge. And as usual thanks to anyone who hosted or helped for another well run contest. Even my opinions on the songs didn't stop me from participating, I think I managed to vote every day. Really just wanted to put this out there since I didn't have much time to comment on individual songs like I did last year. Last year I ended the contest with the thought, "I hope Pizza Tower will be out by next contest so I can nominate something from it." Well it's not out, but it ended up being eligible anyway due to the rule changes. I'm still kicking myself for not nominating It's Pizza Time after both Hurry Up and Collapsing Rift got in this year. --- Hey man, LlamaGuy did encrypt the passwords. With what?

Mr Lasastryke 08/20/21 6:12:05 AM #142:	i do think there's something to be said for the theory that in certain cases, the "best stuff" has already been done in the contest before. once you've gone through wed, gs and ll, you end up with rr, which is one of zts's lesser works to my ears. digifamily is great but not as good as classroom imo. etc. i know i said VGMC15 was my favorite but maybe VGMC14 actually WAS a little better. tough to say.
