Results, Tournament of Champions 3:
Despair of ELFERIA < Class::EXSPHERE_NOSURGE;, 20-23

The match was tied with 40 minutes to go, and then 5 votes came in, 4 of which went to Exsphere, meaning it has won our Tournament of Champions! Congratulations to the EXA_PICO series for yet another contest victory. That makes three, between Exsphere's two and EXEC_SPHILIA in VGMC7. I look forward to crowning another Hymmnos champion in VGMC21.

Congrats to EXSPHERE! Also, a personal congrats to Autumn making the final four! (even though Battle!! should have been in its place)

It turns out the wildcard matches and extra lives made the contest last just as long as if we had done a 256-song bracket...

Results, day 91a:
LastPandemic < Rude Buster, 18-24
Scars of FAUNA > Battle! (Colress), 26-17

Ciel Nosurge lost because the users decided that was enough Nosurge champions for two years.
Pokemon Black/White 2 lost because mainline Pokemon in R3 is trespassing and it was escorted from the bracket.

No, VGMC11 was hot trash throughout. VGMC13 was absolutely loaded and somehow still produced an undeserving winner.

daring to agree on 11 here, it probably genuinely was the weakest bracket since 8, even with some rare songs that haven't been seen much elsewhere that I liked a lot

that said the real disappointment is easily 9

9 had my favorite winner. I realize that by every other metric, it was a disappointment, and that it feels like every other person on the board seems to make a game of crapping on that winner like its Nickelback, but I still prefer 9 to several of the more recent contests.

Day 81b:
Scourge of the Universe < Apostle's Maraud, 19-24
TIGAR (All Phase Mix) > Imbrium, 24-20

TCal lost because the apostle stopped all the scourging.
Neotokyo lost because the only soldiers it had to fight for it were tin.

Only one for four so far, but Apostle's Maraud's wins counts the most of any of the four matches, so that's good.

Results, day 71c:
GUERRANT-OFENZA-SUPRONT-UNNE > Kanata no Rafflesia, 24-21
An Endless Desert > Megaraph Fleet, 23-22

Really tight matches. Wild cards are now 0-3, but not for lack of trying.

REFLEC BEAT The Reflesia of Eternity lost because GUERRANT-OFENZA-SUPRONT-UNNE HAS EVEN MORE CAPITAL LETTERS!!!
Spark the Electric Jester lost because even a megawhatever fleet can't survive in a truly endless desert.

Yeah, those were tight matches. Megaraph Fleet got the first five votes, but then Kanata answered with the next five votes. Both matches were tied as of azuarc and hb's votes.

Wouldn't it be weird if Endless Desert somehow beat GOFU next round....? That would be a totally unexpected retiree.

Unofficial results, day 95: I dunno where azuarc is edition:

Partizans > IDOLA The Strange Fruits, 22-20
Flotage (Stage3-B) > Desire Blue Sky, 24-18

Partizans/IDOLA was back-and-forth and IDOLA had a 2 vote lead and then Partizans got 5 of the last 6 votes. Desire Blue Sky had an early lead until Flotage got a big run of votes to take the lead, Desire Blue Sky made a push to tie it back up right after but it never managed to recover from that.
