@failgirlema I'm guessing somebody already told you about this, but just in case.... yeah, it appears to be the wrong link.

Well below average!

My bad... KCF had nothing to do with my Danger ARM nomination.

Kirby-themed Day 2! =D You might be wondering why I would do such an unimaginative theme? Because I explored every Kirby soundtrack last year! <( '.' )> I sure hope something here makes it in....

Also, it just occurred to me today that some Kirby nominators might be unhappy about my "flooding" the nom topic with Kirby music (nevermind that I don't consider it flooding). Just to keep things in perspective... We only had four Kirby nominations on day 1 this contest (last I checked). VGMC XVI had 14 Kirby songs nominated. In VGMC XVI, Kirby music was nommed/supported by 25 people. Twenty-five from that contest alone (and I wasn't even one of them....)! It's not like all the Kirby noms/supports get spread around by only few people. Yeah, maybe I could cause some Kirby song to fail (I think it's more likely for the reverse to occur!), but that's how VGMC is-- every VGMC has lots of nomination conflicts. So please don't boycott me...

Note that there's one more Kirby track coming on day 3....

Yeah, agree with the above. I did miss one already happen earlier that it's kinda too late to take back now (Haste's Blue Desert Hotel) but I would say you can drop it but renomming something else straight up breaks the rules about the five nom limit.

That being said, there is very good chance I will revive Karma at some point lololol

A certain somebody was acting less than ideal about my nominating it, so I withdrew Blue Desert Hotel to satisfy that person. Sorry, I should have waited on Danger! For some reason, I thought people had done it in the past.... I guess not really.

To make up for it, I will only nominate four songs on Day 2! I'm glad you said something because I would have nominated five songs again otherwise...

Attempt number two for Divine Intervention.... Here's hoping making it a day 1 nom rather than day 3 will raise its chances!

Central

Cloud > Link 2003
StarCraft > Wind Waker 2004
Knuckles > Magus 2005
Vivi > Mario > Ganodorf 2013

The best one in my mind, to this day, is Vivi > Mario > Ganondorf... maybe not super iconic, but it was such a massive upset I just have to vote for it. The second best is Missingno > Crono, for the sheer hilarity of having a glitch in a contest, but I'm not sure how iconic the upset is, either, and I couldn't fit it in. I think StarCraft > Wind Waker was a more iconic upset than SC > Halo as at least a lot of beat thought it SC would beat Halo. Not so with Wind Waker..... only a few thought it would do it. Not to mention...mass carriers and that big rally.

Also the staple LOL X-Stats match is Mario > Samus because that's the match that birthed the phrase.

I thought it was Knuckles > Magus.

I wonder what case is going to have the highest standard deviation....?

Die

Just watched some Conker's BFD gameplay, and I think that gets my vote. I didn't know N64 could look that good.

Legs because I'm weak everywhere else, and the only exercise I do is running.

6.5

This is the case that I remember very little of, despite playing it at least twice.

Wow @ Mad Rat Die. I thought I already heard all the good ones from the game. Man, now I wonder if I'm going to end up with three Mad Rat Dead tracks in my top 100 next time around!

I was also going to mention Brain Expander from Polygonet Commanders as another favorite from the topic... but now I see it's nowhere to be found on the list? I wonder where I got it from, then?

7/10

I didn't like it the first time, but I found it enjoyable the second time around.

Square

true dat

The thing about bumping up from six to seven noms to lock is this: there's going to be a lower qualifying threshold in the post-lock part of noms than if we had stayed at six, so for guys like KCF, it might not be so bad.

I thought it was a pretty good intro case!

Super Mario World
Chrono Trigger
The Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past
Donkey Kong Country

Sonic Adventure 2

Super Mario 64
Zelda: Ocarina of Time
Goldeneye
Mario Kart 64

The first three are obvious.

7/10

The ending was disappointing and kinda ruined everything my first time playing this game. When I replayed it, though, I was able to put more weight into the rest of the case, which I thought was pretty good!

Now most are with their original Youtube links! (obviously a lot of them no longer work, and there are no links for the early contests) Let me know if you notice any major errors on the first two tabs. For example, some game title standardization still needs to be done: if you want, let me know anything you want fixed, and tell me how to fix it!

5.5/10

Apollo Justice is my least favorite Ace Attorney, but it's not by a huge margin like it is for most other people.

Yeah, ToC4 is the foremost thing on my mind. I wonder if we should reduce the field to 192 to accommodate for that? But if the field is reduced, then we might need to raise the nom cap to 8 or 9.

One thing I don't like is the start of day 1 noms where everyone races to be first. It stresses me out, people sometimes preemptively post by mistake, plus there are other undesirable things about it. If there is any way we could get rid of people racing to be first on day 1, whether this contest or the next, it would be nice. No idea how that would be done, though.

Also, hype!
