In all actuality, now that I know how to strip the identity from a file on google (you make a copy) I like being able to see who owned the uploaded file. It make it easier for people to upload more then one song. After the fist song I have the google useer name associated with the steam name so I automaticly know who to credit.

Well then, I hope you are not a karaoke addict like a few of my friends...
It's a great app that allows you to do vocal and video recordings as well as duets/group songs as long as others have the app. It's been a while since I actually looked at it so I don't remember what is needed for VIP and what the differences are, but you can download the files after they are uploaded by going into the source code and direct posting the audio file link.
Just the first easy option that popped into my mind for Duets.

Well, maybe there are some videos of me doing so when I was younger, but speaking of recording a song - no, I yet didn't do it. Right now I have two song I want to record for the contest, one in my language, and one evergreen known from some 80s movie. I managed to get original audiotracks, I have audacity waiting for me, yet I can't manage to get decent microphone. If I won't get it till tomorrow I will just record it and submit somwhere around day before deadline. I will use mic from my webcam or will try this trick with headphones JoeMoDo suggested on my other comment.

EDIT still haven't found a better option then google, For the shy people that wish to remain anonymous, feel free to upload you songs to a private location and send me the links, i will upload them concealing who they came from. Also I can create private folders for people to upload to if they cannot access file upload services on their own.
Isn't the reason for anonimity at this first stage to prevent favouritism?

True, and I'll try to minimise exposure to people's identities. Factors working in my favor are many peoples identities on google differing from their steamgifts names and possibly the stripping of those identifying tags. I don't expect more then a handfull of people to watch the google drive for new songs before i announce them on the thread. I hope those that do will suppress their desires to check the uploaders identities, or at the very least keep the info to them selves. No system is totally secure, last contest we had some people idle in teamspeak to see who was recording. As long as I can keep things mostly fair, and throw in some suprizes to those that enjoy peeking I think I can avoid most favortism.
If google doesn't work I'll make a change, but so far I don't think that's needed.

Firstly I expect people to tell me when they upload something on google via steam chat. if for no other reason then for me to add them to the group to access the giveaways.
I will be making and maintaining a private list of all participants. I have and do promise not to reveal anyone's identity without their permission.

soo how can I sign in? where should I put my so-called-singing?
Comment has been collapsed.
you have q couple options you can sign in/sign up for a google account, and upload your song here
Or if for some reason you hate google you can chose any other sight you prefer that uploads files (mega or dropbox for example) and give me a link to it over steam messaging,

I refuse to way in on this, one of the things I love about this contest is being shocked by people selections. Althigh I am kinda sad I won't hear drafts this time arround. Last contest someone preformed a cover of Rick Ashley's "Never Gonna Give You Up" that was wonderful, but they weren't happy with it so no one but me has ever herd it.

BTW : will my accent matter? English isn't my native language but all the songs I want to "perform" are in English. is it a problem?
Comment has been collapsed.
Sorry, I don't know why I posted "of course" before as it's not what I wanted to say... What I meant was:
Of course it DOESN'T matter, and of course it WON'T be a problem.
I deleted my previous post and posted it again so you will get the notification and hopefully I'll fix my mistake >.<

I was told google drive was a bit tricky to use so am writing a brief guide.
Comment has been collapsed.
I can listen to the content of the folder but... "add my file" does not appear at the right upper corner. elp required

I did everything like it was written in the guide but no, this drive does not want to cooperate

A few things to note
First off i want to talk about naming conventions When upload a song I'd like you to name it "song-artist-VOCALS" for the vocal only submission, "song - artist-SONG" if you are uploading the song you sang to be mixed with your vocals. and "song - artist-MIX" For example if you sang "Mad World" by Gary Jules, you would upload "Mad World - Gary Jules - VOCALS" After you upload your file(s) please add me on steam, so I can add you to the giveaway group and make a list of who recorded what song.
About anonymity.It has been pointed out that google drive shows who uploaded a file. if anyone has a good work around for this please tell me, untill then I can ask people not to peek, and/or hope you google account name isn't the same as you steamgifts name.
Finally for the end up the contest i am aiming for Sept 30th, however this may change depending on circumstances.
EDIT still haven't found a better option then google, For the shy people that wish to remain anonymous, feel free to upload you songs to a private location and send me the links, i will upload them concealing who they came from. Also I can create private folders for people to upload to if they cannot access file upload services on their own.
EDIT 2: Someone suggested i add a link to the first contest
