Just make sure the list is randomized before it gets in the bracket.

I don't make the brackets, that's @CapnPancakes job. But, if there isn't a bracket by tomorrow, I might make it and add some admins to it to help out as well. We'll just wait and see.

I would have loved to nominate Creature Montage from Pikmin 1, but technically it isn't credits.

I would have never guessed Weezing was so useful until I played a HeartGold Nuzlocke!

1) Persona 3 — Well don, and much better than that generic Mario 64 Music
2) Umineko — Just your average credits theme... Oh wait. It's not. Jamestown's pretty good too.
3) Super Mario Land — That ICO song just annoys me for some reason
4) Halo 3: ODST

1) Super Mario 64 - Might not be the best credits song ever, but definitely one of my most treasured. Soft while still being upbeat. <3
2) Jamestown - Nice rock.
3) Super Mario Land - ICO just a bit off-putting
4) Pikmin - Halo just a bit off-putting, and I just like that Pikmin one too much. Halo better composition? fine. But you don't have the feels Halo!

Oh boy. Like I've said time and time again, VGM and lyrics don't really mix well in my mind, so this tournament in specific shall be... interesting. Guess I'll just have keep an open mind and dive head first into it.

1) Persona 3 – A nondescript face-off, but this stood out slightly more.
2) Jamestown
3) Super Mario Land – The singer is trying his best, but especially in the middle section it feels like his fighting just to get his voice heard trough to melody. He's young, sure, but it's not all that enjoyable to listen to. Mario Land, on the other hand, is pure 8-bit gold.
4) Halo: ODST

Because we've received seven votes, voting for this flight will conclude in 24 hours.

I'll also cast my vote as well to bring us to a total of eight.

Also, this is just a fancy way to bump the thread for more votes.

Also, @UGXwolf come vote! I was wondering where the lengthy explanations went.

Was Mariobro4. No, I'm not taking off my backpack...it's important.

Rounds that are divided into multiple parts are called flights. You can blame my years of competitive debate for calling it that.

@Maelstrom No, I mean "flight".

1) Super Mario 64 - To be honest, I don't see either of these songs going very far. This time, Mario 64...takes the cake! (I'll leave now)
2) Jamestown - Umineko could've been a better song, but it just seemed too hollow to me.
3) Super Mario Land - I will admit that Super Mario Land's high pitched instruments is a little off-putting, but I do understand that it was necessary in order to pump out as much sound as possible with those teen tiny speakers. I'll give it a pass, but it'll probably bite itself in the butt later on. Ico was so close, but the music wasn't balanced properly. The music was intended to mesh together, instead I listened to two sides trying to fight for dominance.
4) Halo 3: ODST - ODST is a multi-layered cake of epicness, and it is indeed not a lie. Enough said.

Voting for this flight will conclude in six hours.

EDIT: Also, a question for everyone. Because we have 32 entries, should we make this a double elimination tournament, or keep it single elimination? Or, if you'd prefer, I can also make it so that in this round, it's single elimination, but every round after that is double elimination.
