Mad points?

More like manic.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

So both the artist AND the source material could be famous, but as long as SotW voters haven't heard them together, it's completely eligible? Oh by the way, here's my next nomination!

Bastard stole my nom!

We rejected an arrangement of a Super Metroid track a while ago, while we accepted that Wind Waker arrangement. The rules have been very patchy regarding arrangements of popular tracks.

Personally, I think it should be judged on a case by case basis on the criteria that the arrangement has to be significant and not rely on the original, based loosely on the OCReMix rules.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

Aha! Playing your Jet Black Hatred has activated my I'm A SotW Staff Member trap card! Surely I have you on the ropes now!

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

My objection to the SV track comes completely due to the unobscurity of the arrangement, rather than the source material. We did have a virt arrangement from VGMix nominated by Liontamer a while ago which I had reservations about letting in, but didn't really mention. That nomination can be justified better than the Soule nomination in my mind, due to the Soule nomination being made such a big deal throughout the remixing community as well as, I believe, the general VGM community.
