signs, i hope that i didn't mess up.....
Hello everyone, Shiro Kusanagi here, and I'm back for a third straight year in the contest. This year, I'm going to be perfomring tributes to a pair of video game franchises that I feel stand out as all-time greats.
For the preliminary round, I will be paying tribute to a game that I rank as my favorite RPG of all time, EVEN ABOVE FINAL FANTASY VII. The game is the classic "LUNAR: Silver Star Story", and to pay tribute, I will be performing the opening theme, "TSU BA SA" as originally rendered by game heroine Luna's seiyuu, Kyoko Hikami.
Should I make it into the finals, I will be performing a song that has gone from famous to iconic over the 15 years since its debut along with its franchise. This series has spawned a main series of six video games, along with six anime OVAs, an anime TV series, a movie, and more than ten years' worth of live-action musicals as well as a cafe themed on the franchise over in Shibuya.
This series is none other than the legendary Sega Saturn classic "Sakura Taisen", and to pay tribute to this great series for its 15th anniversary, as well as to celebrate the first release of a Sakura Taisen game here in the United States (AT LONG LAST!), I will be performing the first game's legendary opening, "Geki! Teikoku Kagekidan".
At least the shaking has stopped by now.....for me anyway.....

"LUNAR: Silver Star Story",- "TSU BA SA"
"Sakura Taisen", -, "Geki! Teikoku Kagekidan".
I youtubed Tsubasa, what a nice song, so free flowing.
I love Sakura Taisen! that would be awesome to see you sing that!
On the day of the Karaoke Contest, is that when we give them our CD of songs?

I hope to make it to the final round, and I'll perform it at open mic again, so keep your eyes open...btw, Sakura Wars: So Long, My Love for PS2 has a Japanese voiceover disc, milkychu, recommended.

Actually, now I'm wondering.....If we did mess up, would we receive any sort of notice to allow an opportunity to correct our mistake? (and couldn't help but notice that sign-ups are still open, which means that its less than 40 people over an hour after opening. Not like last year's 20 min record.)

last year was crazy. and the fact that the registration started early was not working with my schedule. sadly I didn't make it last year.
This year, though, I am well prepared!
^^ yeah i was hoping that they would announce as soon as possible, waiting will keep me up all night until the week before fanime..and thats two weeks!
i hope they email us asap if we messed up so we can correct it and go back......
There are still some spots left.
The "Thank you for signing up" is not a guarantee that you are accepted into the contest- all it does is confirm that whatever you wrote was entered in the contestant database. Then I go through and take the first 40 valid entries.
Two entries were rejected due to no address. They'll need to sign up again. Everyone else looks okay so far, though I haven't fully verified all the song titles yet.

So that means I'm in. You have to personally verify all the songs though?

Yay I'm done registering. Better than last year because last year, it was filled up within 10 min so I had to go and sign in at door and wait in line for an hour but it was fun singing~ Best to all~

Simply, making sure the songs each person submitted are from an anime series/jpop/video game as per the rules.
I am getting a little worried whether I put "Aitakute ima" for my final song, or "Aitai ima"
Aitakute ima" is the right one.. ><
I'm wondering whether my song is Ok too. I put in the artist name because I couldn't think of the anime off-hand. I wonder if it makes a difference?

It shouldn't since last year or two back, one of my song from not from a an anime but just a j-pop so I just put song title and the artist itself.
How would you know that the information you filled in was correct or not?
And would they sent you an email for confirmation saying something like::
"We have received your info, and you have been accepted/declined."
And what happens if you sign up twice, but you don't know whether your previous information was correct or wrong?

So does that mean I can resubmit the entry, and keep the spot I submitted before?
I just checked the entry memory (i get some drop down menu from the last entry) and I was wrong on one song title.
That's weird how come this year the sign up list didn't fill up within 20min? (What I kept reading everywhere here) Was everyone else really busy? Or was is just were all so lucky?

There are more spots this year (40 versus 25).

It would count as a new entry.
How many times can we sign up?
I just signed up my 2nd time.. with the CORRECT information and I've checked everything twice.
And the sign-up sheet will be posted in the forums 1 Week before Fanime??
So.. that would be around... the 17th-22nd??

From your response, I guess 40 spots have not been filled up yet.
That is good to know.

I followed your lead and re-signed. I checked my drop down memory like Yumicchi, and nothing was incorrect, but I wanted to change the Artist for my finale to the Anime series. And then I didn't get to use my nickname(or rather badge name) last year, so I put that in this year.
Man! I feel SO much better about this this year. But wasn't it 35 contestants last year via internet, not 25?

nahh last year it was internet 25 contenstants, and 10 at-con contestants
this year, its all 40 are available online and those left over are on a waitlist or at con..
yea its weird..
im surprised that it hasnt all been signed up yet
i guess ppl are busy this year =p
It is more people this year. Last year was tiring since I sat in there for hours from the beginning to the end and it was only 35 people >< I think it lasted...2-3 hours? Maybe I'm just exaggerating since it seems very long for me when I was there.
