| Topic | [VGMC] Officially announcing VGMCXIV: A Bracket Reborn -- nominations 3/13 |
| PIayer_0 03/05/20 8:06:04 PM #42: | I guess the issue is that it feels unjustified to lose due to circumstances external to the actual matches; if you got a really tough round 1 matchup, it feels like you lost because of unfortunate seeding, and if you got matched with an impressive second-chance opponent from some other division, it feels like you lost because they just happened to be the one that got sent to you. Sure, they're both fair in that the better songs end up advancing further, the loss just stings extra badly because you've lost your momentum partly due to bad luck with bracket placement shenanigans. I don't really mind whether R1 or R4 songs are the ones up for redemption; I was thinking of it from the perspective of who deserves to retire, but making sure early losers are still heard twice + trying to specifically redeem the most unfortunate of seeding placements makes a lot of sense as well. --- -Abraham Lincoln ...
