Coriakin's Composing Contest: Number 4!

And the winner is.... Phiros, for Beach of the Bongo-Zo!!!!!

Ahoy there!
Okay, okay. So parts are now so common that each and every one of the questers at the June 16th audition ended up with Henny making them an instrument by the time I left. So? I'm gonna run this run this contest anyway! Hopefully people will enter....

Anyway, thanks to the charming Ayella, I have in my possession a steel pot that yearns to be used by a quester! Of course, I can't just give it away, so I'm running a composing contest for it. There's no point in getting an instrument unless you're going to compose for it, so you have to prove you'll compose for it before I give it to you.

It's true that I have no way of knowing whether the pot will work or not, but even if it doesn't, you'll be one song closer to your full bard audition, when you do get an instrument! So you might as well enter. :)

The prize: Steel Pot (makes a casserole)

The Contest: Write a song for casserole, and send it to me. My email address is CoriakinCL@gmail.com. After an arbitrarily decided period of time, I will choose the best song I have received. The best song in my sole estimation wins its composer the pot. All submissions I receive will be posted up here as I receive them, though the composer's name will not be listed. You can only enter *one* song into this contest, although your one song can be changed, up to the finishing date. So feel free to come here and check out the competition.

Prize awarded: Sunday, July 7th.

Other rules:
- Only one song will be considered for each person. Any more songs that are sent will replace your currently submitted one.
- Include tempo, a title, and your (character's) name when submitting. Duh. :)
- Only Bard Questers can enter this contest. If you're a bard or a quester hopeful, sorry, you're out of luck.
- It doesn't matter whether you have an instrument already, or how long you've been a quester (partly because I have no way of checking). The only thing that matters in this contest is the quality of your music. Though if you already have a casserole, I'll be miffed. :)
- This song MUST be for casserole. I can't give you the right instrument if I don't have the right part. Other contests for other instruments will happen when and if I can find more parts.
- The song you contribute should be new, something composed specifically for this contest, not one that you've had around for a while. Of course, I have no way of knowing if the songs I receive are really new, so I'll give y'all the benefit of the doubt and hope that no-one takes advantage of my trust. If I find out that people are 'cheating,' I'll add more limitations so no-one can. Please don't make me do that. :/

This is by Wutold, who just made Hard Bard. Since he's no longer a quester, he is, alas, disqualified.
