Our first “expected” champion of the tournament: The Legend of Zelda: Skyward Sword gets on the board with “Fi’s Farewell”, although it must share with indie classic FTL. Overall a weaker group, with only 4 songs likely to make the playoffs. But that’s good news for all the dark horses that have placed early on. Honestly these results are pretty exciting; no massive Portal song towering over the proceedings. Now let me take a big sip of coffee as I look at today’s group…
[/spoiler]
It’s time for group play! We have 1,866 songs this time, in 24-song groups. That means 77 full groups, plus a 78th group of 18. For the group stage, vote for as many songs as you like! Songs will be ranked based on how many upvotes they got compared to how many people voted in that round. 1 After all groups are done, the top 512 songs from across all groups will advance to the playoffs.
…unless! After group play, but before the playoffs proper, there will be a wild card runoff! If an individual game places more than 10 songs into the top 512, songs 11+ per game will face off against songs 513+2 in a play-in round.
We’ll be “feathering” groups; voting on group 5 will be active until Sunday June 20th at 10:00PM Pacific. Group 4 is still active until 10 PM tonight; vote here. Group 5 will start Friday and be active until Sunday, and so on. Please listen to every song! Don’t just vote name recognition.
You can listen to all songs in group 5 in this handy YouTube playlist! (Don’t worry, songs will also be linked in the comments, where voting will take place)
