So Noah Mclaughlin showed up with his toolbelt and his Makita thinking this was some kind of habitat for humanity thing. We still invited him IN DA HOUSE.

Re: Carpenters Coverfight?
So I know there are a few folks who are putting the finishing touches on their songs, and I really hope you can submit them in time. And we've gotten a great turnout of submissions so far. Thanks to everyone for playing.
That being said, at least in this particular coverfight, there are no lifelines. Only deadlines.
If you miss this one, you can always post a link to your song in this thread I guess, if you get around to finishing it. But it won't appear on the website. Sorry. I think I've allowed ample time for this.

Re: Carpenters Coverfight?
I think I found a way to contact Richard Carpenter. I think I'm going to send him a link to the website after it's up. Might get a C&D letter back so maybe i'll wait a couple weeks after it goes live.

Re: Carpenters Coverfight?
It wasn't directed at you Roy. Please don't take it personally. At least I've heard from you. There are a couple of folks who I've heard nothing from. Jon Eric also posted that he was having issues with the deadline.
It's more a matter of setting up the poll (and being unable to edit the choices once it's running without resetting the count). You know how these things go.

For the record, I don't use Makita. I'm a Ryobi man.

Re: Carpenters Coverfight?
OK, sorry to be a stickler here, but Wednesday at midnight is realistically Tuesday night at 12:00. Is that what you mean? Does it need to be done in an hour from now? Or by Wednesday at midnight do you mean I have the rest of Wednesday to finish?
(I actually came online to ask if I could be late and still be in the fight, but now I see that ain't gonna happen, so I need to know how long I actually have...)

Re: Carpenters Coverfight?
Yeah - completely unrelated to all this - but I have enough trouble with timezones and datelines and shit as it is - please please please for any future fight organisers - never set deadlines as 12:00. Make it 11:59 or 12:01 or 17:28 whatever. Just not 12:00jack wrote:you have until midnight today.
