Another Drum Roll.....

[Aredhel]

We have our winners for the November slot! Without saying who the winners are, or them being able to accept outright, they are:

Third Place: #5 Day of Hope
Second Place: #2 Seasonal Greeting and Nightly Prayer
First Place: #4 Wintersgate

My thanks to the contest judges, and to DJ Kalishinko of Vanguard Radio for being our tie-breaker judge.

And, in a plug for Vanguard Radio, they are playing christmas songs for the next while and reading our winning poems, so congrats to the winners!! You have been read!

We do want to mention one of our poets, tho....MochiKing...author of Number 3, Summoner's Folley. We felt horrible that we had to disqualify on the basis of it being too long (see the rules), but we all loved it. It will be read on Vanguard Radio in just a bit. There is about half an hour left of the special broadcast, and beware....anything goes!!

If you miss this broadcast, tho, there will be others! Tune in and hear the songs of the season, poetry and maybe other works.....

*hint: December contest is musical composition!

The December contest!!

Rules of the road:

- Must be mp3
- Can not be over 4 minutes in length
- Must be Vanguard inspired and have a title and explanation to set the mood (look at the lore, if you're not sure!)
- Can be any style (classical, jazz, techno...you get the idea...but no "cheesy" pop, ok?)
- If you have a copyright on the piece, please include a release stating Vanguard Spheres has your permission to post it on our site.
- Must be in my e-mail (aredhel.vanguard@gmail.com) by midnight, otherwise known as New Year's Eve, (yes...I lead an exciting life!) and winner will be notified by PM, no later than January 5th, 2007

Again, there will be 1, 2 and 3rd places awarded, so send those MP3's in!

Talk to you all SOON! And grats again
