Note there had been a change in the dates

Rules:
1) The song must be 99% home-made.  the song can have 25 seconds of some other established game music, no more (as a filler for last minute finalizations) however it MUST fit the style of music the song is (so the 25 seconds must flow into the rest of the song)
2) The song must not be more than 3 minutes long (thats still really long).
3) The song must fit the format of NSM theme song. (It can be in minor, but remember that we are not a funeral music website.) It can be video game-ish, classical, and maybe even pop.
4) The songs, when finished, should be pm-ed to me so I can post them anonymously as Song 1, Song 2, etc. The title should be NSM Theme Song.
5) If your song sounds like someone else's, the person who sent the song first will have their's posted.
6) You can work in groups, I dont really care.
7) You have to PM them to me by April 19, 2008, 5PM Central Time (Daylight Savings Time).
 All of them will be posted at the same time so don't rush through.
9) It can be piano and orchestra OR just piano. But you must have a piano, whether it be a solo or piano with orchestra/ It is advised you make a piano solo version of your song just in case someone might want to play it.
10) Please send me a Mp3 and a piano MUS (piano just in case someone wants to play it).
11) When posted, the people will vote on the songs and post their opinions by April 25, 2008, 7 PM Central Daylights Saving Time.

okay ppl, make sure you see the date changes and there is no point in sending them to me early unless you're entirely confident for the songs will be posted at the time.

Good luck with this contest!

Workin' on it.

Minor is my speciality, so composing a song in major is a challenge.
