Round 3
Begins!
Round 2 Results
Hey hey, I've tallied the results from the identification round, and we've got some real good music-recognizers (for lack of a better word). We also have some humourous people, writing in some funny comments that made my day. First, let's announce the top finishers and then we can go into some fun stats and comments. The scoring was 1pt if you got the track correct (or close enough for me to know what you actually mean), and 0.5pts if you were a small bit off (if you guessed the right track but got the game wrong, or if you got the game right and the track was only slightly off - e.g. Vs Guzma and Vs Plumeria). I gave 0.1pts if you got the game correct and nothing else.
In 3rd place... Tsutarja with 59.6 Points!
In 2nd place... Explorer of Time with 62.6 Points!
And in 1st... It's bobandbill with 71.7 Points!
Having scored over 80%, bobandbill also receives the PokéMusic Listener achievement!
Now for some stats (for the 11 people who submitted):
Lastly, there were some funny comments:
And here is the answer sheet and the scores. If you think there is anything wrong, please let me know:

Now for some stats (for the 11 people who submitted):
- The only song that no one managed to guess in any capacity was #67, which was Cyrus' Battle theme from USUM!
- The songs for which only one person got full credit for were #56, #62, #14, and #85. Unsurprisingly, #14 and #85, being from spinoffs, were only guessed correctly by the user who submitted them. However, props to bobandbill and Explorer of Time, who were able to correctly identify #56 and #62, respectively!
- Everyone except one person managed to correctly identify #2, which was Lavender Town from RBY. That one person thought it was Lavender Town from GSC (did it really sound that happy?)
- Everyone except one person managed to correctly identify #77, which was the DPPt Opening. The one person who didn't get it correct only submitted answers up to #60, and I am confident that they would have gotten it correct.
Lastly, there were some funny comments:
- One guess was for the Miror B Theme, but from B/W. Oh how I wished that to be true!
- I gave half marks for this, but someone referred to Oleana as "other evil Lusamine from SwSh". I haven't played SwSh but that's probably pretty spot on, right?
- Another user's guesses were riddled with comments that contained obscenities, which I can only guess is from pure joy and definitely not frustration at almost recognizing certain tracks.
- Someone very adamantly guessed Floccesy Ranch three times, even taunting me with comments such as "yes, again" and "mm hm" for the 2nd and 3rd guesses.
And here is the answer sheet and the scores. If you think there is anything wrong, please let me know:

Round 3 Instructions
And now it's time for the final event! This will be the rankings, and you guys will have to fill out the following form at the bottom, which is the top 20 songs (with ties) - it's actually the top 48 songs. There are also some questions that you will have to answer about everyone's other favourite songs!
To explain the ranking system, I took everyone's top 5 songs in order and assigned them a different number of points based on how high they were on each list - the points were (72, 51, 39, 28, 18). This is not even close to a perfect system and cannot replicate how each person feels about their favourite songs, but this was the best way I felt to give weights. In hindsight, I should have asked everyone to give a score for their top 5, but I was not expecting the music list to be this diverse. Now there are some ties, and that is obviously because some songs ended up with the same point value. However, there were some extra points added based on the "favourite main series" songs - if a song (say chosen by users A, B, C) was also the favourite main series song of another user (say user D), then it got 15 extra points.
Knowing all the point range for these top 20 songs is from 43 points to 190 points. That means everyone's 2nd favourite song is at least on the list somewhere. Here is the list of songs on this list, and it is your job to rank them:
Scoring your responses will be based on the difference between a song's rank (by you) and their true rank - so the lower the better. As an added bonus, if you get something exactly correct, you will get -1 score instead of 0. Additionally, there are some questions you would need to answer regarding everyone's favourite main series music. Answering each of these correctly gives you -5 score, which may help give you an edge.
Submit your answers with this form:
Let me know if you have any questions. Also, you can still participate in the ranking even if you have not participated in either of the other two rounds!
Please PM on the forums or DM me (5qwerty) on Discord to send in your answers. The window for this portion closes at 11:59pm EST on August 24th.
Have fun!
