Retro RPG Podcast Instead of remembering them, we go and play them.

14Jul/100

Contest #2

This is not the official contest announcement. That will come at the end of episode #20.
The contest will not officially start until show #20 airs.

Consider yourself lucky. Those of you who read the site get a head start.

Details details details....

tl;dr version:
make us an intro song or skit!

explained:

Since the last contest was so successful, it is now time for another.
This one requires creative and technical ability.

Make us an intro song. The song can be in any format, but must pertain to our show and the games involved (rpgs). The song can be in any style, (rap, rock, blues, etc.). The song can use existing content (taking an instrumental and adding vocals, or replacing existing vocals). movie soundtracks, or TV intros (a-team, power rangers, etc).

Examples:

Example 1

Example 2
(I recommend not looking at the movie and just listening to the audio)

Example 3

Example 4

Example 5

Example 6
(The Instance Podcast. Created by Randy Jordan, Narrated by Scott Fletcher)

I hope that's enough to get the idea. Either come up with your own, or use something that exists, but parody/alter it to be an intro related to the podcast and rpgs.

As far as creating your own, be creative, use game sound effects, game music, take 30 songs and mash them together to get something else then add lyrics or a skit to it. Take samples from our previous shows and throw them in there as well.

Now, another thing, for those that may not have the technical ability, but can still put their ideas to paper, submit whatever lyrics, and the song it goes with. One of us will record it and that will be your submission. (There are restrictions. Anything more than just applying lyrics may be refused. Everything else will be handled case by case).

Prizes are TBD. Nothing you can profit from, but probably along the lines of games, t-shirts, posters, and other stupid items. (Expect multiple prizes for the winner(s))

Winners: Variable. Depends on how good the entry is. If 10 people participate, and we found 3 to be phenomenal, there may be 3 winners. (reminder, Prizes TBD. multiple winners may result in fewer prizes).

The contest will run for 60 days starting the date show #20 airs. We understand this could be a bit time consuming, hence the long period.

This is an unofficial annoucement. So details and rules may change.

And PLEASE e-mail us with questions. So that we may avoid confusion that came up with the last contest.
