#12 - EA:EA

Bill Cipher. A name that has been seen in countless mashup tournaments. And yet... when this specific iteration of him was being deleted from existence, something broke in reality. Not only did his consciousness combine with the deteriorating mind of a greedy con artist, but he also found a new way to manifest himself! Now known as EA:EA, this abomination has possessed the very concept of mashups, becoming music in physical form. Harnessing incomprehensible power, he shall soon bring Weirdmashgeddon upon us. God help us all.

RESULTS - [ R2M1 ]

(This is a repost of the announcement made in the Discord server for the SoundCloud audience.)
TLDR - ACOR is cancelled.
Losers Round 2 will be ACOR's final round. Following Losers Round 2, there will be a vote among the final 8 to determine a winner. There will be a track accompanying this, and I intend ACOR to go out with a bang, so look forward to that.

Why? I promised myself if I stopped having fun working on ACOR that I would can it, and well, I haven't been having fun. These tournaments are just hobbies, and I see no reason to continue a hobby that's become a chore.

I'm dearly sorry to everyone in the backroom that I let down, as well as all of the fans of ACOR.
