So, Puzzle Box wins the Vector Survivor, but both songs were in the Finals anyway.


Time for something new!! I added these Play-Offs to give the songs placed fourth on the albums a chance to enter the Consolation Rounds as well (colour-coded with orange like in previous rounds). Some recent Survivors I've seen have done this by not allowing a fixed number of songs to go through, this Survivor does it this way, to give albums with multiple good songs worthy of being in the Finals the chance to do so.  The catch being that only one song from this bunch joins Consolation, and it will have to finish in one of the top 3 spots in Consolation as well. We'll see how this mechanic plays out, I hope it will give this year's Survivor a nice twist.

Honestly, this line-up of songs looks like a collection of mediocrity (by Haken's standards) to me, but there's one song I would love to see in Consolations. My vote sgoes to Earthrise.
Hey dude slow the fuck down so we can finish together at the same time.  :biggrin:

Earthrise is amazing, foo'!

The others are all solid enough mid-table songs for me. A Cell Divides is probably the weakest (I love the album but it ranks bottom of all the full songs).

Ariich is a freak, or somehow has more hours in the day than everyone else.
I be am boner inducing.

Never listened to Sun until now, I think it's better than some songs on this list.
