Hearing carols and getting disconnected

Finally...some worthwhile reason for me to turn up the volume while playing GE. :D

For those who've been around after last Thursday's maintenance, it seems that RCM Hrin wasn't kidding when she dropped the idea of the IAHGames team singing a Christmas song to be inserted in the game. If you haven't turned on the music in your game client, I suggest now's the time to do so.

The barracks theme has been changed to feature the quadruple singers of team IAH, which had MeepokTah (who we all fondly call as uncle MPT), Hrin, GM Lorenza and another person they haven't told us yet (despite my incessant prodding to know who this singer was). I wouldn't have thought it was really them as I was looking for some accent of sorts, but I have to say that their singing is really good. I think it was Lorenza who carried the voice that added the harmony to the whole ensemble. Marvelous job!

I hope they put the song as the town theme though. I can't count the times I've been disconnected from the game after staying in the barracks too long just to hear the song go on repeat mode.

Thankfully, Lorenza posted the downloadable MP3.

Here's an accompanying video to the song which featured some of the snapshots the team took while being with the kids in Katong Special School (as posted by Hrin).



[edit]

I embedded the music on my blog. ^^ 'Bout time I got into the Christmassy mood too. Hehe.

Not really post-worthy...

...but I've been rolling my eyes for the nth time with this weird forumer. Dunno if the dude just has a lot of spare time, or he's got nothing else to do.

What's even funnier is that everyone else in the forums is encouraging his weirdness.

WTH. I should be reading more productive sites than frequenting the forums. Less headaches on my part.

[Just for Kicks] The rendezvous

Once upon a time in Granado Espada

Long before the edict of the Queen of Vespanola
Way before the strife of the Old and New
There lived a love so true
Between...

Edward, the White Baron

and

Selva, the brave mistress of rapiers


One day, they made a vow
To meet underneath the tree in Bahama
In this tree they will renew
Their love so beautiful & true.


And so they finally meet
With hands intertwined, they whisper sweet nothings.


Little did they knew
They were being watched by Montoro the cruel
But what the evil Viscount missed
Was the fact someone else too was pissed.


The lovers were much oblivious
Little Gavin was there to give Selva something precious
But what he saw tore at his heart
And so Montoro said, "Hey, dude let's eat this piece of art!"

Okay, so I had nothing else to do. XD I know the last line totally sucked but I was out of options for a the appropriate rhyming word. Haha.
