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.
