Also, I have the ps1 Mega Man 5, and if it matters, that remix that's being nominated WAS in that version verbatim. Most amazing jew boots |
MM5 wouldn't be on that list (nor would 6-Forte). X1 and X4 would be... This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body? |
I know...Anyone can. My point was it's not going to "open the floodgates" if everyone has a clear idea in their own minds what is and isn't eligible. I'll readily admit I'd be in the minority of people who'd allow MM5 (my reasoning is most people were unfamiliar with it in the MM contest and its profile isn't as prolific as 1-4, especially 2)...However, I don't think the issue of obscurity is as much as it seems to be sometimes.
I was speaking idiomatically.

I'd also exclude 1-8.5 and at least X1-3 (never played nor listened to X4-8, so those are fine to me, but it's no big deal if any of those are cut).
And while we're at it, hell, let's just run the gamut here:
Side note: I am hereby reserving all future rights to nominate Museum from R&F if it at some point in time becomes explicitly eligible. What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
I would argue on 7-8.5 due to no official soundtrack being released (at least until November) and the series' popularity dying throughout the 90's. I would vote "yay" on MM5 or MM6 or X5-X8, but I wouldn't argue it too much (though I don't ever remember X8's music coming up in any discussion I've seen).
Other than that, yeah pretty much the above. Sorry to say, Rockman isn't as high-profile as MM2 would lead people to believe...Or at least not ALL aspects of it. How ya doing, buddy?

Ah-hah, I was right about those floodgates! Look at CHz already calling dibs on future nominations! I am nothing if not a prophet
Seriously, though, I would push for a blanket prohibition on the entire classic and X series, since there's a real nebulousness at where a "taper off" occurs in them both. I'd also be very squamish about the GB games, but that's probably because I'm very familiar with them. The others seem like relatively unpopular or obscure side stories or gaidens (or a full series in the case of BN), which are fine by me. I've never even heard of Star Force. What, you don't want my bikini-clad body? |
Yeah, looks like a real apocalypse on the horizon...Guess I better inflate the liferaft.
Just curious how many times you've listened to the Rockman and Forte SPC set (or rip...or whatever's out there). I've heard it from half-heartedly playing the game, but I can't tell you much more than that. Jam it back in, in the dark.

(2 Points) Immortal 3 - Obsession 'Desert Run'
(2 Points) Waterworld (SNES Game Rip) - Diving (2 Points) Ys III Wanderers from Ys (PC-Engine Red Book Audio) - Be Careful There's nowhere I can't reach. |
This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it. |
Additional Spam: Didn't think this week was overtly great myself. 3 pts - Be Careful (zero surprise nothing else measured up to this one) 2 pts - A Life of Harmony (so predictable, but very nicely put together) 1 pts - Sports (not always sure what to expect from Lemmings, but really fun) Wild Wind was close before the flute came in. Was hoping for more than a meandering, midtempo rocker from the Terminator track...Crash's mention of "quality shredding" had my hopes up (though the solos and the second half were generally good).

My ears (and heart) have been pleased by most songs this week. Alas, points come in a limited number...
(3 points) The Wanderer - G-Comp (2 points) Waterworld (SNES Game Rip) - Diving (1 point) Immortal 3 - Obsession 'Desert Run' ------------------------------------------------ To be economic on posts, I'll take this opportunity to nominate a new song: Arranger: Reyn Ouwehand Composer: Rob Hubbard, Martin Galway, Fred Gray, Ben Daglish, Matt Gray, Reyn Ouwehand, Neil Brennan Album: Nexus 6581 Track Title: Asian Legends Track Number: 10 Year: 2000 Catalog Number: PP001 Additional Information: An arrangement-medley of several C64 martial arts games. For ported titles, some segments were originally composed by Japanese artists (i.e. Legend of Kage -> Hisayoshi Ogura). Sources: C64Audio.com What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
3 points ~ The Terminator (Sega CD Red Book Audio) - Destinationz Unknown
2 points ~ The Wanderer - G-Comp 1 point ~ Waterworld (SNES Game Rip) - Diving Immortal 3 and napple tales would be the next ones to get a point. FELIPE NO |
3 points - Waterworld (SNES Game Rip) - Diving
2 points - Ys III Wanderers from Ys (PC-Engine Red Book Audio) - Be Careful 1 point - Immortal 3 - Obsession 'Desert Run' I really like the style of this Waterworld song.

Trying to listen and vote by 12:30 AM EST; no hard feelings if this is not allowed.
Additional Spam: 3 points: Waterworld (SNES Game Rip) - Diving 2 points: The Wanderer - G-Comp 1 point: The Terminator (Sega CD Red Book Audio) - Destinationz Unknown Close: Napple Tale Vol. 2 Illustrated Guide to the Monsters - Wild Wind Waterworld was a surprise.

2 pts. - Wild Wind
2 pts. - Diving 1 pt. - G-Comp 1 pt. - Be Careful Also, I have to change my nom last minute because I accidentally erased my save file for the game I was going to rip a nom from (Drawn to Life). So, new nom: Track: Shadow Devourer Album: Sword Maniac Artist: Hitoshi Sakimoto Track #: 3 Year: 1993 Catalog #: TOCT-8253 Source: GMR Comments: I hate to nominate something from an arranged album I already nominated from, but there are two gems on the album (the other being Mad Buffoon), and I really wanted everyone to hear this. I know it's Sakimoto, but this album should still be obscure enough that it's allowed (and it's not typical Sakimoto). This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Voting extensions are always okay, providing they're for a reasonable time period. Couple of hours? Sure, go for it. Just let me know beforehand.
And with that, voting is closed and nominations are restricted! 1). [30] Waterworld (SNES Game Rip) - Diving 2). [22] Napple Tale Vol. 2 Illustrated Guide to the Monsters - Wild Wind 3). [18] Ys III Wanderers from Ys (PC-Engine Red Book Audio) - Be Careful 4-t). [16/10.5] Immortal 3 - Obsession 'Desert Run' 4-t). [16/10.5] The Wanderer - G-Comp 6). [14] The Terminator (Sega CD Red Book Audio) - Destinationz Unknown 7). [7] Shining Force III Premium Disc (Game Rip) - A Life of Harmony 8). [4] Lemmings 2 The Tribes (Amiga Game Rip) - Sports Diving and Wild Wind were pretty much locks wire to wire, but the battle for third place was pretty tight. Be Careful got a big last day boost to finally take the last spot. Close one that came down to the finish. Most amazing jew boots |
Sweet! Gold and in a very tough week with some very high-scoring nominators! Well, I'm glad you fine folks approve of my nomination. Definitely check out the rest of the soundtrack. There's a number of good track there. I particularly fell in love with the Map theme, too. Although, I ultimately went with Diving, being a much fuller and more satisfying experience for me.
Congratulations to Wild Wind and Be Careful. As I've pointed on my other post, those two songs were the first I would have considered for points if I had some to spare. Btw, I usually don't do so, but I double-checked the points on the voting archive and this caught my eye; there's a small discrepancy between Liontamer's points here and the ones on the table. It won't alter the first 3 placings, but a point needs to be taken off Wild Wind and given to G-Comp, which should give it 4th place instead of Obsession 'Desert Run', if I'm not mistaken. (While we're at it, someone mind confirming how this weighting system works?) |
Wow, 4th or 5th. Now you understand why I quit b4.
What kind of toxic man-thing is happening now? |
EDIT: Misunderstood your post. Apologies, Epsilon.
Regardless of the placing, you can take solace in the fact that some people who didn't know about Desert Run really enjoyed it, and perhaps will now check out the rest of the Immortal 3 album. Most amazing jew boots

Awww, Silver. So close. Definitely not bad but, in any other week, "Wild Wind" could've struck gold. A bit of bad timing that my nomination and all the others came up against the mother of all SNES tracks. I can't argue that "Diving" is undeserving - I mean, even I gave it points and I almost always dislike SNES material - so good job, Draconis.
And Epsilon, you shouldn't feel too poorly. This week was fantastic and I saved the Lemmings track for my own future enjoyment. If this week hadn't been so crammed full of awesome, that Lemmings track would've placed, I'm sure. Far worse has earned Bronze and Silver in the past. Jam it back in, in the dark. |
The bonus point system is pretty simple: a track gets 1 bonus point for each voter who votes for it and an additional .5 bonus points for each 3 awarded to it. In this case, since both Obsession and G-Comp were awarded five 1's, four 2's, and one 3, they both tie at 10.5 bonus points, so we have a tie for fourth place.
As long as people keep liking your nominations (as was certainly the case this week), just keep them coming. And I'm not just saying this because we're low on nominations. There's nowhere I can't reach. |
