Skate was in the middle of organizing one before his computer troubles started.

And nonsense, there are plenty of memorable anime tracks =p 128 candidates sounds good to me.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

I'm thinking we should go with SS' idea and split it into 2 categories -- one for vocals (OP/ED/insert/image/etc), and one for BGM. They're too different to be judged side by side.

The downside of this is that the BGM contest will be inundated with Yoko Kanno and Yuki Kajiura nominations =p

But of course I could just be the only one who doesn't go with the grain.
That is not the whole point. But it is pretty inevitable, considering the calibre of Animespot. Not to mention that GFF's collective library of anime music is nowhere as expansive and varied as its VGM stash. Have you heard of Tsuneyoshi Saito? Mina Kubota? Kei Wakakusa?

As with any other contest, the more popular and familiar tracks will always win out. The most you can do is to throw in some of the more obscure compositions to give them exposure.

There's nowhere I can't reach.
