Straight from Idyllwild, California, Maximus Mighty-Dog Mueller II (also known simply as Mayor Max) is on his way to the tournament! Holding the position of mayor for 7 years, he's no stranger to dealing with heated politics during his campaign. With his cute and fluffy appearance, he's sure to win over dog-lovers from around the world! Also, tagging along him is U.S. California Representative Gil Cisneros to assist him with communications, although he won't directly interfere with the tournament.

(ex: Californication, Hotel California, California Girls)

- Tracks featuring songs related to Dogs and dog-related artists
(ex: Who Let the Dogs Out, Dogsong, Wolf in Sheep's Clothing, songs by Vulfpeck)

- Tracks featuring songs about or featuring politics
(ex: Rise Above, Fight the Power, Gimme Some Truth)

Victory! Max Mueller II

BONZI: Nice try. Come back when you have a bit more information I can steal.

55.6% to 44.4%. The winner of this match never left first place, though things got rather close quite a few times. Congratulations to the winner.

While one falls closer to the White Noise, another moves forward. Thank you for voting, and please look forward to the next round.

WARNING: This tournament will contain unsettling elements, depictions of inner turmoil, and unreasonably large sourcelists. If you aren't comfortable with that, please do not follow the tournament. However, there will be no outright horror, and no one will die. 

A moderately high stakes, lore-heavy, four character round robin tournament based around liminal spaces and memories. Heavily inspired by Squaremash.
