That's all I use. Free, easy resources for CPU and you can pick up the accompanying LAME encoder to format WAV and MP3 files. |

Two questions: One submission per person, or are more allowed? Should the new lyrics be Wintersday-themed, or just GW-themed?

Thanks for the answers! (Edit: I just wanted to make sure it didn't have to be Wintersday-themed, since that sounded harder.)

Psh, screw that, nobody else should participate. Then I'm guaranteed to win! The holidays aren't about community and creativity and joy. They're about getting as much as you can for yourself!

Double posting, wooo.
I have two versions of my song. Are you guys trying to keep the submissions under wraps until you have a chance to broadcast them, or would it be okay to post them here and see which folks prefer? All I can hear are the mistakes; I can't judge them accurately. Never mind. But leaving the text to partially excuse my double posting. Sorry!

Can you join forces with someone who doesn't play guild wars as long as the lyrics are yours?
I'm working on a nagging idea now but to get the sound I want requires some male vocals...and the willing volunteer does not play. |

I am going to say yes @Cyanna. Just let him know the prizes are in game prizes and if he has no problem you have at it. It's mainly the lyrics will need to be guildwars theme'd. We have already gotten a few submission and they are all sounding great! Keep up the great work everyone!
