Karaoke Party - I apologise.
« on: June 10, 2012, 03:47:39 pm »

Welcome, one and all, to the thread that will make or break my standings in life. Tonight I was bored. I was thinking of something new to do. So I discovered this:

http://www.karaokeparty.com/

I'm going to say now, I am a terrible singer. The worst you have ever heard. However, even I could get a score of Amateur on some songs. Anyway, I get ahead of myself.
This website is a fantastic party game and a piece of fun for the average Internet lurker all rolled into one. You can register for free on the site and get a surprising amount. For nothing you get access to lots of songs and the inevitably shocking singing that comes with them.

When you begin a song you're presented with some bars that guide your tuneless warblings into place along with lyrics and the song playing in the background. As you screech, boom or otherwise make noise into your microphone you may rack up points, based on how close you are to the original tune in any octave (trust me, I tried). It also, depressingly, puts this next to the total you could have got to really smash you in to the dirt and then, to top it off, gives you a rating at the end.

Now, I don't know how this could work. Either you all ignore this and reject me, or you pretend to take some interest in it because you pity me, or maybe we all start sharing scores and trying to out sing each other. I don't even know.
So go on Bay 12.
Surprise me.

I love singing and would give this a try! Must be fun to do this with the girls at work. :D

Karaoke isn't an activity or an excuse to laugh at people.  In fact it is a mystical meta-key that unlocks girls pants.  Also some guys pants.  If you're into that.

I imagine dwarven karaoke would have mixed results though.

Maybe that is what they're doing in the designated meeting area, and spread spores.

Well that and booze. It's really two keys, turned in unison. It's a high security lock. :P

I actually like karaoke, and I'm a fairly good singer. If anyone is still interested I wouldn't mind challenging someone. A lot of the songs aren't exactly what I would have put on there, but there is a fair number of good songs.

I'm registered as ThisIsTheFool if someone wants to challenge me or just add me as a friend.

I hope this isn't considered a nerco since no one posted for a good 10 days. Better than posting a new topic I suppose.

I'll get right on this the moment the house is empty. I'm almost certainly worse than Mr. Spaghetti claims to be, but that doesn't stop me from trying all the friggin' time. :)
