Now rested up, the results for the first batch of match ups are in, and you can see who has advanced to the next round so far with this picture. https://i.imgur.com/4TrcmUL.png

With that said, it's time for the next batch of match-ups to vote on. And unlike before, it's reduced to 8 matches per day. So you can take your time voting, and be able to listen to the music without feeling any rush with voting. So have fun voting, and have the link to the new batch: https://forms.gle/P3iCmh5oEQBQWeuP6

Voting will last until about midnight in central time, or about 16 hours from now. So vote while you can.

Posting later than intended. But voting is closed now for this first batch of match ups. And after some helpful advice by others, from tomorrow onward it'll be 8 match ups per day. So keep an eye out in the morning for when the second batch of match-ups appear to vote on along-side results for first batch.

To address the elephant in the room since people are now posting here, the entire bracket was decided 100% by rng and dice rolling, and thus every single bracket placement was out of my control when it was set in stone to keep it as unbiased as possible. So everything you see with the bracket was done offhandedly to play fair, and thus every song is stuck where it is now whether with an easy match-up or something much harder. If you wanna blame anything, blame rngsus.

But with that said, there's about 2 hours left soon before voting ends. So if you want to vote before first batch of match-ups come to a close, now is the time.

Halfway and more through the first voting batch, and all is going better than expected. But there's still about 7 hours left to vote. So do so while you can, and then soon a new batch will happen for round 1 the next day. So get in and vote.

With so much good music from the Final Fantasy series, even just with FF1 to FF15 with these 15 main games, it always seems like it's difficult to truly gauge what the cream of the crop is with the music here. So with way too much time on my hands, I decided it was time to finally at long last put that question to bed forever more. 128 songs from FF1 to FF15, only using music from these 15 games, were selected to be put into this single elim tournament. And to keep it fair, almost all games have an equal amount of music from each title. And with even randomly seeding all 128 songs into tourney form, all is as fair as humanly possible.

With that said, the rules are simple: Once a day (or when I can be able to do so), I will post a google form/poll link to vote on match-ups for music. And in said voting form will even be youtube videos for each match-up's music, so you can be able to decide for yourself which is better or more to your liking on more than just recognizing name alone. Then, simply vote on each match-up before submitting, and you've done your part for that day of voting. After 24 hours of the poll opening, the poll will close and whichever song wins each match-up moves onto the next round. Continuing after with batches of 16 match-ups per day until each round ends, and then continuing until only one song remains. So let the best song win when all is said and done.

So with hopefully basic rules explained, have a link to the voting poll for this round, for the first fourth of round one: https://forms.gle/EN2GxfpoCwQSV3tr6

And have link to complete bracket as well, to keep up with round 1 (and will be updated each round til done): https://i.imgur.com/gePTmWr.png

Poll is open until 10PM Central time on 12/27, so vote while you can and have fun!
