Do some of you just vote for songs because you haven't heard the other? I think listening to both songs should be a rule for this thread even though there wouldn't be a way to stop anyone from not following it but it would be more fair if everyone did that. I hadn't heard C. Viper's theme before but I really liked it and I thought it was better than Doopliss' battle theme which I had heard before so I voted for that. Also, I hadn't heard Wily stage 1 from MM10 or Opening stage from MMX before and I initially thought the latter was better but I also really liked the former and after listening to it a few more times, I decided that I liked it better and changed my vote.I don't see why listening to both would be a problem. The songs are only a few minutes long and you can open up another tab while listening to the song to do other things while you listen to it.

I listen to them all before I vote; what I initially thought I'd vote for has even been different from what I actually ended up voting for a couple of times.

Um, not really. Maybe we just enjoy different music than you?

C. Viper's Theme was good, but the way Doopliss's theme captures the essence of eeriness sounds great to me.
Preference, it exists, and plays a role in these decisions.

As much as I hate to see Dry trail losing, that wasn't the reason I said what I did. Due to Retro_on_thego only voting for one of the current match-ups, I thought it could be because he hadn't heard either of the songs and I didn't want to aim that comment at him as I could have been wrong so I just bought that up in case that was how some people were voting. I guess I could have said it in more relaxed manner that didn't seem like a huge rant so sorry about that.

1. Paper Mario:TTYD Doopliss Theme
2. Dang this is hard D; The TOS theme is so calming but the JTS theme is so catchy. Dry Trail since it's losing.

1. C. Viper's Theme
2. Journey to Silius

I don't particularly love either...but anyways.

1. Paper Mario TTYD-Doopliss Theme
2. Journey to Silius- Title Theme

Doopliss Them wins 5-3

Journey to Silius wins 6-3

You get four days to vote on these matchups. Whichever song gets the most votes after the voting period is over moves on to the next round. So without further ado, here are the two matchups for this week!

1) Ocarina of Time - Forest Temple vs.Sonic 3 - Final Boss

2) Paper Mario - Over Shiver Mountain vs. Majora's Mask - Termina Field

While the Forest Temple theme fits the setting very well, it's more of an atmospheric track than something I want to listen to outside of the game.
1. Sonic 3 - Final Boss
2. Paper Mario - Over Shiver Mountain
I think I just found a new favorite music track! This song is amazing! I really need to play through Paper Mario again.

1) Sonic 3- Final Boss
2) Majora's Mask- Termina Field.

That last one was difficult.

If Paper Mario loses just because it's Zelda and it's nostalgic or it's my favorite game; I'm gonna cry
Oh no, i'm turning into FontisOfCruxis

Sonic 3 - Final Boss
Majora's Mask - Termina Field

Edit : So I'm changing mine, after listening through the Forest Temple music again...its starting to get annoying.

...
After listening to Paper Mario again I'm changing my vote to that.

Dry trail lost.

Lloyd: No...I don't believe this!

At least my other 3 nominations all got through.

1. Sonic 3 - Final boss, this is the best of the Mega drive Sonic boss themes and I got bored of Forest temple before the video ended. Its not the sort of song I'd listen to outside of the game.
2. Paper Mario - Over shiver mountain, Termina field is good but there are better songs in Majora's mask.

1) Ocarina of Time - Forest Temple
2) Paper Mario - Over Shiver Mountain (Please forgive me, Termina Field)
