I enjoyed the songs in the first Drod music contest, (found here) so much in fact, that I want to suggest another music contest! This time, the songs would be more diverse since there is more music in the world, and there are also more users that, I'm sure, would love to participate in the contest.

Except that most of the new music hasn't been released anywhere - in fact, I think the only track that's been released anywhere is "Uncovered".
Check my signature for all the released DROD music.

Why is that? There is a lot of good music that just hasn't been released because it's a bit more like clip music, but it's not...

Because /copyright/. For more detail you'll have to ask Caravel people.

Fine, but it's not of my doing if and when they get here. It is the general board on the Drod Boards, so it's not like they don't check this once in a while.

Jatopian, I don't think there's a problem that the songs haven't been released. We don't have to rip and post the songs on the board. We could have a lyric-writing contest. People who participate in the contest can just reference which songs in the game they are putting lyrics to, and others can listen to them in-game.

DROD really needs a "Jukebox" option in the main menu...

Should be moved to "Contests".
