    Event Information

    Hello, all! Welcome to the Pokémon Video Game Music (VGM) Sharing Event!

    This is an event where everyone can come together to share their favourite music tracks from the Pokémon series! Your choices will be pooled together to create a ranked list of all of the music pieces that have been submitted, after which everyone gets to guess and identify which tracks are the popular!

    Now that we've gotten the basic purpose of this event out of the way, let's get on to some rules and specifics!


    General Information:

    • This event will be split into 3 rounds, Music Submission, Music Identification, and Music Ranking.
    • Music Submission: There is a Google Forms linked from this post - please fill out your PokéCommunity Username, your team, and your music choices. This form will be open until 11:59pm EST on July 18th. In other words, you have 5 whole days to submit your choices!
    • Music Submission: On the form there will be 5 songs for you to submit. For each song, you will also submit a number from from 1 to 100 signifying just how much you like it. Generally I would assume most people are pretty high up with their song choices, as these would be their top 5 Pokémon songs.
    • Music Submission: Song submissions can be from any Pokémon video game.
    • Music Identification: After the music submissions close, I will make a post in this thread with the top 20-30 song choices and the tracks will be "nameless". Participants will then have 4 days (that is, until 11:59pm EST on July 22nd) to identify the music, after which identification submissions for the event will be closed. Submissions during this part of the event can be done via PM on PokéCommunity or via DM on Discord (5qwerty).
    • Music Ranking: After all of the answers for the identification round have been submitted, I will post a list of the Top 20-30 songs, and you will have to rank them in terms of how popular you think it is. This portion will also last 4 days.
    • All: After all the submissions, I will post the winners, along with some statistics about the songs that have been submitted by everyone. Oh, and I'll post everyone's favourite songs too!


    Rules and other specifics:

    • All: Only one submission per participant for all rounds of the event. Multiple submissions will not count and may be grounds for disqualification depending on intent. However if there are honest mistakes, please contact me.
    • Music Submission: Either send a YouTube link to the track or include where the music plays and what game it's from and be as specific if possible. For example, Route 1 exists in multiple games, so I won't know which Route 1 music you're referring to unless you specify the game. If your answer is too unclear or ambiguous, I may not count it.
    • Music Submission: Depending on how the submissions are, I may count multiple iterations of the song as one song. For example, if people put Route 201 but some like the Day version while some like the Night version and some like the DPPt version while some like the BDSP version, then it's possible that I count it as one song in the final statistics since it's still the same song, in a way.
    • Music Submission: On that note, please do not have multiple versions of a song for your top 5 favourites.
    • Music Submission: You are allowed to submit less than 5 songs, but please fill out 5 if you can.
    • Lastly, please remember that this event is mostly so that everyone can share their favourite tracks and have fun!


    Scoring:

    • 5 points will be given to participants who submit their music choices (Google Forms).
    • 5 points will be given to participants who submit their music identification.
    • 5 points will be given to participants who submit their music ranking.
    • 25, 15, and 5 points will be given to the top 3 participants who correctly identified the most songs, in order of 1st to 3rd.
    • 25, 15, and 5 points will be given to the top 3 participants who were closest in their rankings of the songs, in order of 1st to 3rd.
    • In the case of any ties, any tying party will receive full points for their placement.


    Achievements:

    These are going to be one per team. Even if multiple people on the same team meet these criteria, the points will only be awarded once to each team.


    • PokéMusic Listener - 5 points - Correctly identify over 80% of the songs during the identification round. Claimed by gimmepie/wolf for Magma and Aquacorde for Aqua

    • Ranking Wizard - 10 points - Rank no song greater than 3 placements away from its true ranking.
    • You Should Create Your Own Tierlist - 20 points - Rank no song greater than 2 placements away from its true ranking.

    Submitted. Also, are one of the dates incorrect? Says:

    Submitted. I picked five songs with similar instruments that I thought would be interesting for music identification, so I didn't pick my absolute favorites like last time. (I do still like them all, though.)
     
    I submitted mine, had to do some searching into the OST of the games I listened to with the most sound up xD Hope it's alright and everything works out!
     
    I've updated the first post, but here are the songs that you guys have to identify for the next round! Note that you can still participate in this round even if you did not submit any music choices in the previous round!

    In no particular order, here is a list of the top 19 songs (sorry, #20 was a huge tie - guess why?):


    Please submit your guesses (to me via PM or DM) as to what each song (track AND game) is and which game each song is from by 11:59pm EST on July 22nd. If you need extra time, please let me know, as I was late in getting this post up.
