Grandia II - no, since I remember having seen quite a few nominations for the BSC and Best Battle Contest (BBC)
Grandia Xtreme - borderline no, because BBC, then again I know next to nothing about "Grandia", so maybe while bearing the same name it's on a totally different popularity level,
Panzer Dragoon - borderline no, Flight (or was it II) is one of my favourites, otherwise I don't have the soundtrack, also BSC
Panzer Dragoon Zwei - borderline no, same as above
Parodius series - yes, shmups are never too popular
Radiant Silvergun - yes, shmups are never too popular
Shenmue - borderline no, personally I think I know what the music is about and a few tracks already appeared in the BSC and here too, like Snowy Scenery and Sedge Tree
Shenmue II - borderline no, same sentiment as above
Shining Force - yes, I can't relate to the music in any form
WarCraft II - borderline no, I played it too much

So the only one I really object to is Grandia II, all "borderline no" I'd personally not like to see, but wouldn't mind if it gets approved either.

I'm really sorry, but it's often lack of knowledge that I fear and don't like to participate in the weekly eligibility discussion for borderline tracks. I just want to listen to some music and give points to them and can imagine a lot of people taking part in SoTW feels the same way, maybe for the same reason.
Hence I think we need some sort of dictator on this when the majority doesn't feel like deciding. You don't have to ask 2 times before making a poll. A poll is always good, people can just vote yes or no and don't have to give reasons. It also avoids people analysing and taking out the reasons, discussing those reasons, which is really stupid, because you can't discuss personal reasons.
The most recent example was the discussion on ZTS' eligibility. Hardly anyone said anything in the voting/nomination thread. Only when a poll was made, things got cleared up relatively fast, and in the end it was the votes that decided it and not the reasons given.
Yes, reasons are good, but with something that subjective you can't really argue. Even the reasons I gave above, I can counter easily like "how many nominations in the BSC are too much for SoTW?" or some others.

In short: MORE POLLS AND LESS DISCUSSIONS

Jam it back in, in the dark.
