does that mean you'll be supporting all the really weird gust songs that no one likes but me

man if you can convince them to remove the series caps, I'm there.

granted, the Touhou Hellscape that would summon would probably not be worth it, but still!

I think there's at least a slight chance I would support Touhou songs. The style is something I kind of like, but in my experience the Touhou songs I've heard have all been solid but not amazing. (And due to the size of the field you basically have to be an absolute top tier song for me to support it.)

what no. who do you take me for.

The ~plan~ would be to introduce confusion as to which songs you should be trying to make win and which to lose. So you might mess up and get a song I like to win! I mean, I guess you could just vote them all down, but then at least I could watch bad songs lose!

I like a lot of Touhou music, but there's not really any tracks that I'd call a favorite of mine or anything. Certainly won't be an automatic vote against like for some people.

FORMAL PETITION: Should Reach For The Moon, Immortal Smoke ever retire, could we give it a bonus match with The Moon (Ducktales) at the end of the bracket? Feels only appropriate if the unthinkable happens or it gets fed the softest path in VGMC history.

...Speaking of Gust games (and only slightly off-topic), since I assume a number of people in here have played Atelier Sophie: what is the quality of the English translation? I haven't bought the game yet, and the Steam version price is massively cheaper than the Japanese PS4 one (the heck is a 1.5 y.o. game doing at 6500 yen?!), but the lack of Japanese text is making me hesitate. If it's on-par with what Gust games usually get, $30 is probably worth sticking with Japanese, but... >_>

I'm not sure what tracks you were thinking of, but I think my favorite non-vocal Ciel nosurge track is Sea of Flasks, which I've seen in a few places as Sea of Frescos, which... Hey, it already has a video. Yay!

not that i'm trying to start consolidating noms early or anything >_>

Specifically I was thinking of the map/whatever you want to call it theme for Chapter 6. However, there's been a number of songs I've heard in the background I've liked.

Speaking of, I've been a little surprised you haven't shown up to the Ciel watchthrough topic~

The vocal theme for chapter 6 is Class::ETHES_WEI => extends.COMMUNI SAT/., assuming I didn't accidentally reorder the songs in my playlist >_> (and that that's what you were referring to)

Nah. The vocal themes are the only songs from Ciel that you can find pretty consistently! I'm primarily talking about the background music which is largely, though not entirely, non-vocal.

I mean the song that plays on the screen where you select repair points/story scenes.

I found a single playlist of the OST/BGM but I believe it only covers the first four chapters.

It's been far too long since the board has anything truly VGM-related. When VGMCX ended last summer, I didn't imagine the board would go quite so dead, or that the hole from not running Best OST would be quite so big. As such, I'm making this thread well ahead of time so that hopefully people see it, and start thinking about it, and nobody manages to miss the entire nomination period when it finally opens because they're actually looking for it.

Time frame is not set in stone. I'm very occupied right now cleaning out my dad's house and dealing with other aspects of his estate. I'm not going to pretend that the majority of the work for the contest isn't in the set-up stages. And that's assuming that newbie can update the script to accommodate site changes in time, which he says he intends to work on, but he's been quite busy as well.

But I'm hoping to aim for starting nominations around the beginning of March. So if it comes off that way, consider this four weeks' notice.


Awesome. I have some ideas for what I'll do this time, though I'll probably be pushing hardest for some of the same songs as last year.

I miss BOST, though; it's a good way to give songs exposure.
