!!!Contest of the Month!!!


I was thinking about this for awhile. I have a large list of contests that might be interesting to start, but I didn't want to have them all at once. So I thought "What about a contest once a month?" And here we are.

Since we're starting in the middle of February, I thought we could have a lyric contest. I will randomly post Lyrics in this post. How this will work:

1] You get 1 point for the correct song
2] You will get 1 point for the correct artist
3] The person with the most points by the end of the month wins.
4] just post the answer in this thread.

Lyric 1 - Goes to Shanra the Dragon Bard

To many men
To many people
making to many problems
and theres not much love to go around

This is the world we live in
And these are the hands we're given
Use them and lets start trying
To make it a place worth living


Lyric 2 - Shanra got artist, Kathryn Cassand got song title!

I was cutting the rug
Down at place called The Jug
With a girl named Linda Lou
When in walked a man
With a gun in his hand
And he was looking for you know who


Lyric 3 Goes to Kathryn Cassand

I wake up in the morning and I wonder,
Why everything's the same as it was.
I can't understand. No, I can't understand,
How life goes on the way it does.


Lyric 4 goes to Shanra the Dragon Bard
burning in black flames forever
the child of my morbid perversion
is screaming glory of darkness
sing the occultic psalm

with the book of eternal oath
I created the face of the goat
unholy psalm to lead the souls
blood means the pact with my lord


Lyric 5 goes to Vincent SN. SURPRISE double points!
But I’m coming back,
and I’m taking back everything I can
It’s breaking me up and tearing me up
It’s all I have
And I’m coming back,
and I’m taking back everything I can
It’s breaking me up and tearing me up
It’s all I have


Lyric 6 goes to Vincent SN
How many times have I done this to myself
How long will it take before I see
When will this hole in my heart be mended
Who now is left alone but me


Lyric 7 goes to Kathryn Cassand
It's a thief in the night to come and grab you
It can creep up inside you and consume you
A disease of the mind, it can control you
It's too close for comfort

Put on your pretty lies, you're in the city of wonder
Ain't gon' play nice, watch out you might just go under
Better think twice, your train of thought will be altered
So if you must falter be wise


Lyric 8 goes to Kathryn Cassand
Everything inside you, about you
I wanna know, taste, hold, love you any time I want too
Let me show you, let me give you
Everything I have saved just for you


Lyric 9 Goes to Pticza Rajskaya
The sun warms my face
All the days of my life
I see them passing me by

In my heart I know I can let go
In the end I will find some peace inside
New wings are growing tonight


Goes to Kathryn Cassand!
Another head aches, another heart breaks
I am so much older than I can take
And my affection, well it comes and goes
I need direction to perfection, no no no no

Help me out
Yeah, you know you got to help me out
Yeah, oh don't you put me on the back burner
You know you got to help me out, yeah

Points:

Shanra the Dragon Bard: 5
Kathryn Cassand: 11
Vincent SN: 6
Pticza Rajskaya: 2

Table of Contents - Contest Description - Prizes - Past Contests

There will always be a variety of prizes. The winner each month gets to choose one of them. There are only two winners. First place gets to choose, second place gets 10k.

The Mystery prize is a secret. It could be a rare item, it could be a common item. I will promise it is worth more then 10k. It's a risk, but I do have a few prizes worth over 200k. stare

If you have a prize (either an item, egg, or even a talent) that you are willing to contribute please message either Shanra or Ethril.

Prize 1:

The Mystery prize

Prize 2:

15k

Prize 3:

Nightmare Table

Prize 4:

For those members of Dragon Cave, I will give you an egg. If you choose this option, message me and I will tell you which eggs I can breed/grab for you.

Gimme Three Steps by Lynyrd Skynyrd!

Is that right?

Yup that's right! Since Shanra got the artist she got 1 point. Kathryn got the title so she has one point.
