Salemosophy Posted January 22, 2011 Posted January 22, 2011 Free trip to Tokyo if I win? You bet. Quote
Dule Posted January 22, 2011 Author Posted January 22, 2011 no, they will take your kidneys and sell them on the black market :lol: Quote
Salemosophy Posted January 23, 2011 Posted January 23, 2011 If they're only going to take one, it still might be worth considering... :hmmm: Quote
Dule Posted January 23, 2011 Author Posted January 23, 2011 so you think this is not worth considering cause they pay trip to japan for winers, and somehow you think that's not possible or what? Quote
Salemosophy Posted January 23, 2011 Posted January 23, 2011 No, I mean, if they're only going to take one kidney, it might be worth it... it's not funny if I have to explain it. :( Quote
nickstix91 Posted January 29, 2011 Posted January 29, 2011 Im not too much of an orchestral composer (as of now) ...but I think I'll invest some time to compete in this competition... I mean, whats the worst that happens, I dont win...but I'll still have a newly composed work for myself Quote
