I really don't see how the .hack song is supposed to be pretentious when the FF8 song keeps repeating four words of some kind of ominous faux latin prominently as in a failed attempt to sound threatening and mysterious :<

Liberi Fatali wins in a scintillating 2-0 shutout.

I guess you could say it was...

*Sunglasses*

...a liberal fatality.

*Audience groans*

-= MATCH 16 =-

Since you guys suck at nominating things, we need to go into the future into the realm of second nominations to even find a proper matchup.


In one corner we have Ice Penguin's pick from Final Fantasy 6, which (being Final Fantasy) needs no introduction.

...oh wait I already used that joke last round.


In the other corner we have my pick from Tetridonutsphere, which given my objectively superior taste, is the superior song. You guys should totally vote for it.


Voting closes Friday at 11 AM Pacific Time (GMT -8 or -9 or sumthing).

NOMINATIONS ARE STILL OPEN.

I consider that result fairly fishy, given that I most certainly did vote for my nomination.

Really, before starting voting, how about actually making sure more than two or three people have registered the existence of this thread?

Since I can't seem to edit the poll, cast your votes here by posting the song you prefer.

Basically, I'm ignoring the poll until I have the ability to reset the votes and rename the options*. If you (or other people) feel your vote wasn't counted, you can contest the results. I'll even change the results if necessary.


As far as people not knowing about this thread: there's not much I can do about it. Sure, I could just wait for people, but when those people see the slow pace of the thread, I doubt they'd be interested. I could pimp this thread in other threads, but I know that's considered a faux pas around here. The best thing that could happen is for this to be added to the PoRA box, but I can't do that (and apparently neither can you).


Also, I'm voting for my own nomination because I'm an egotist.

*Or until a staff member takes that responsibility upon himself.

Tetrisphere wins this round in another absolutely enthralling 1-0 shutout.

(The poll claims a score of 4-2 in FF6's favor, but I'm ignoring it on account of the fact I'm losing that there's no way to tell if people actually voted for it or just forgot to change it from the previous match.)

Anyways, on to the next match.

...

Uh-oh!

We're out of nominations! Whatever will we do?!?

a) Continue on as if nothing is happening and fill in the gaps with the extra nominations, random nominations of my own, and the occasional actual nomination that shows up.
b) Repeal the "Opening Song" restriction (and possibly restart the contest).
c) Replace the "Opening Song" restriction with a "Final Boss Death Sound Effect" restriction.
d) End the contest entirely, burn the community to the ground, and salt the earth.
e) Something completely different.

YOU VOTE, I DECIDE!

We need a different method of voting before we continue, the current one is obviously inadequate.

Elaborate, please. Are you referring to the poll I'm ignoring because I can't edit or trust to be an accurate representation of votes past day one, or something else entirely?

1) Start over, new thread, don't make it a "poll" using "&ispoll=1". Unless you want to make a thread for each round...
2) No song restrictions other than "must be from a video game"
3) No nomination # restriction unless more than a few people actually show any interest or someone is just being ridiculous and nominating 40 songs by themself.

Sounds reasonable enough to me. I'll make a new thread in the evening (I'm busy the rest of the day). In the mean time, this thread can be trashed.
