Prepare for Contest 5 in like 10-12 hours from this post. This one will require some Japanese and Perhaps Gaming Music Knowledge. This isnt real time so there is no need to actually rush in here to win.
Here it is:
http://www.savefile.com/files.php?fid=6633871
There are 7 songs total, each ranked from easiest to hardest.
There is one song that does not either belong in the Jap or Game Genre but its pretty easy.
Have to either give me the song name + artist or guess where it came from. In case of a tie, giving me both song name + artist + where it came from will decide the victor
Captains PM Me your guesses by May 12, Friday @ 11:59:59 PM PST.

1 = 100 Points
2 = 250 Points
3 = 500 Points
4 = 750 Points
5 = 750 Points
6 = 1000 Points
7 = 2500 Points
To prevent Ahem Certain users helping others :p, Ill make it that the division with the most points gained here will get a 10% total point boost.

For #2 is it a remix of an "old School Game"? I'm thinking like 8bit Nintendo stuff that's why and it sounds too good for that.

No, no Cap'n. It's 'RAWR!', followed by a: :doindadom
A bloody difficult challenge this, I've worked out all of one of them. I fail.

Jasper

Deadline is on the 12th of May (i.e. tomorrow) a second before midnight >_>. So basically one second before the 13th of May starts :)... I think...

there is no way everyone can find out all these songs by then unless u are some music enclycopedia :) but nope, I doubt that any division has all 7 songs, DB said it himself "Noone will know #7"
the purifier
05-12-2006, 05:27 AM
yeah because its damaged....(at least here)

05-12-2006, 08:47 AM
It isn't damaged; you need to use something other than Winzip to extract it. I recommend Z-Zip or WinRAR.

All I know is I can't wait to hear where #5 is from. I love the damn song

Lol, I seriously sat there listening to that one and #6 for an hour.

05-12-2006, 06:01 PM
i used winrar.....
Shinji
05-12-2006, 07:32 PM
^ Then I doubt it's the song that is damaged. Seems strange that it works for everybody except you.
ChansteR
05-12-2006, 07:36 PM
The songs work, all of them work because I listened to all of them and you will need Winrar to extract all the songs because they are placed in a Winrar pack

Our division couldn't get numbers 4 and 6... :/ Haha, we had the artist of # 4, but couldn't find the song. :(
ibuPROFen
05-13-2006, 06:40 AM
lol i managed to get all except number 7..
ROFL.
We forgot all about it. I only had the first one, and I gave up after that. And asian and I were more focused on Contest #4 to remember. I didn't even think the deadlines were the same time. Whoops.
