Sooo, team #1 let's figure out a means of communication! I think it would be best if it were elsewhere, perhaps Skype if you all are down? Let me know what you all think. Best of luck Team #2 - may your song be thoroughly haunted!

Skype is a terrific idea, but might not be ideal if the collaborators are in different countries. Time differences and such. Once you figure out who will be project director, he can start the project, then everyone can discuss the song via comments.

Been a long time since the Rock and Ghoul.......... Good luck everyone.

Hey Team #1 I'll send out a message to everyone and let's head onwards towards the fabled Green Goblet.

I'm off to watch some scary movies and walk in a few graveyards for inspiration............... :)

My shop vac is in the garage connected to the table saw using parts from a leaf blower.

Good question. You can only send to one person at a time, at the moment. Sending to multiple members in a pm will be implemented in future though. But once you get your project setup, you will be able to communicate through the project comments. Can't wait to hear what you guys come up with. Have fun!

My wife told me there are several free chat plugins that can be utilized in the forum/site. One is found at:

There are many others also.

We already have a chatroom in the Lounge area. It's on the left side of the Recent Activity Stream. :)

7 days left….

And from the sound of things, everything is coming along spookingly good!

Just a reminder –
The finished song must be published into the Music Library no later than midnight, October 28th.

Please make sure to go over the rules before completing your song:

• Your project must be a "Public by Invite" project
• Your project must use the Equal Shares collaboration agreement
• Lyrics must include the words ‘Haunted’ & ‘Halloween’
• Your song must be original, 100% written, recorded, and produced by the team members
• Your cover art must be original and created 100% by the team members

Contest entries will be judged on:
1. Creativity – Music, lyrics, cover art and anything else that screams originality!
2. Moodiness – Dramatic or even dark comedy, must be Halloween themed, of course!
3. Chill factor – Creepiness, makes the hair on your arm stand!
___________________________________________________________________________
Special Announcement, for those who did not read the email.

Now collaborators can chat live in the project's 'Boardroom', a private chat area embedded on each project. No one else but the collaborators will be able to see or join in, so you'll have complete privacy and is ideal for real-time project discussions, including for challenges and contests, etc.

As each collaborator enters the 'Boardroom' a green dot will show who is present. Once they leave the discussion, a red dot will appear by their name. Once a dialogue is started, it will remain even after everyone has left, so if a collaborator misses the discussion they can always go back and read through it later.

We hope you enjoy this new feature and will make good use of it. And do let us know what you think!

The deadline for the Halloween Challenge submissions is upon us, Wednesday Oct. 28th, no later than midnight EST.

Please double check your songs to make sure you've met all of the requirements before closing and completing the project. For some help, see our tutorial section. Here are a few links to guide you…

If you're still unsure or have any questions, feel free to contact RAVEN or MonkeyC.

The challenge entries will be judged by the Adam's Family (yes, they know all about spooky music) and based on the criteria of: Creativity, Moodiness, and Chill Factor (see our original post). The winning song will be announced on Halloween, Saturday, Oct. 31st.

Best of luck guys, we're already spooked out by your songs!
