REO Tri-Monthly Contest #10 Announced!

**Ryouko** · Last edited by Ryouko on Thu Dec 15, 2005 12:17 am; edited 1 time in total

Just when you thought the contests had gone stone cold, I just had to go and beat the life right back into them! Hah! I know you all have waited longer than you should have, so I've made sure to make up for it ten fold. We'll be offering not one, but a -slew- of prizes this time around! There's gonna be lots of winners, and not all prizes will be going to those who rank the best! A bit confused? Well then read on my friend, and try not to get lost along the way.

This cheerful Christmas season is a time for singing - so that's what we're gonna do! Just about everyone has a microphone on their computer, and well, if you don't - then run yourself up to Wal-Mart and get a cheap one. You know that dinky recording program that comes with Windows under the "accessories" menu? Well you can use that too! We're not looking for professional quality, we just want to hear your voice, and hear it loud!

You can find out all the juicy details you need in the Contest section, which can be found here:

http://www.rockman-exe.com/contest.html

I would like to especially thank another donator, Zac (I'm so sorry if I post the wrong name...I can only go by what paypal tells me. ;_;). Thanks to him I was able to add on the Grand Prize for this contest, which is the Silver version of the Forte Cross Rockman toy! Thanks!

Have fun everyone, and good luck~!

I'm DEFINETELY entering this. So, can we add the karoke track in the background of our song if we have the program to?

EDIT: Also, you should as Janna De Arc -WILD FANG from Megaman X8 on there. AWESOME song :3

For those who'd rather not be splitting their songs into four or five parts using the default Windows recorder:

Lookie that. Izumi's ava has my name on it. =P Except I don't spell it that way..... XD

This looks interesting. I think I'll give a whack at it as soon as I buy a new mic for the comp (we just HAD to lose the old one). >_>

With my singing skills, I'm most likely to win worst performance. XD

Suraida - then I love your name! XD

Actually, the spelling I used isn't the same as what the girl in my avatar uses either, supposedly. Her name is Noel. XP

As for the karaoke...unfortunately, we don't have a "most mediocre" for me to win. XD

is this contest only for people that live in usa or canada?

Mei Qiao · Posted: Mon Dec 12, 2005 1:03 am Post subject:

I might try my hand...err.. voice at it just for fun. ^^ Assuming I can get my timing right with one of these songs. oo

Although do we have to have the actual music playing in the background? The microphone I have is on a pair of headsets. And not to mention I need to do this while my brothers aren't around so I don't make a complete and total fool of myself. o_o; (Well, infront of them. I'll make a fool of myself by doing this because I can't sing Japanese too well... xD)

EDIT: Mari, you're my hero. I was stumped thinking on how I was going to do that with the Windows sound recorder... o_o;

I guess I'll field the questions, assuming nothing's changed. :3

Maximox.EXE - No, you can live anywhere in the world.

Mei Qiao - And also no. You may sing however you like - a cappella (without music) or with, whichever is best for you.

Oeh, a singing contest! Great idea! Since I can't keep my mouth shut when there is music, I think I'll give this a go XD
Luckily Kaze Wo Tsukinukete is on the list, since I already know how to sing that one ^-^ (not to say that it sounds good -_-; )
Now to figure out a way to "borrow" my brothers mic...

Awesome idea Ryou.

This contest is going to be a right laugh. I would be amazed if I won any prize.

*To the lyrics department*

Seems fun! I might join, however the only category I have a chance at is Worst Performance. ^^; Maybe I should have actually tried to sing when I was in Choir... XDD

Haha! I wish I can join, but I just can't. >_<

Anyways, I wouldn't do good since 1) I'm a boy and 2) I'm always off-beat when I try to sing. Smile

Well, this will be interesting...

I might be more of the 'I Believe' (Rockman X3 ending) kind of person, but I will be willing to try. Just need to find my dad's old mic an' plug it into my laptop.
