IMPORTANT: If you have not already, for the Game of Tones, I suggest all competitors click on my profile thingy to "FOLLOW" me so you don't miss anything important. Do this now before continuing, a suggestion.
DEEEEP BREATH! Here We Gooooooooo!!!!!
OK FELLAS... This is it, baby. Ground Zero. Welcome to
The TTR Game of Tones! Forget that all that previous tour bus crap. Maybe someday.
All that kind of action is but a distant dream from you where you all stand now. Erase it. Never happened. Yet. Press "play" and read on!
Welcome to our 18 willing participants, and all those interested and watching. This is going to be a rollercoaster of good times, fear and angst.
I can promise everyone an entertaining ride, but it's mostly up to our TTR Rock Stars and
the best judgment of the community. Yes, the TTR community as a whole including non-players also steer the direction, so the more people watching and following, the better the game will get.
I do little more than guide the grand narrative... The competitors write the story. Their own stories... weaving their a career path with words, pictures, sounds. And they better make it damn good, or they will DIE!

Just as in life, in the real biz, you get out what you put in. Imagination. Vision. Hard work. Hard play. Fame, fortune. Dreams to be realized. It's all here waiting for you to JUST GRAB IT ALL UP! But it can't happen overnight. One more thing. In the vicious game of Rock 'n Roll, you're not alone in the hunt for the ultimate prize... Others want it just as much as you, maybe more. How far will you go to sit upon
The Throne of Tone?
We shall see.
Prologue:
You are 18 years old. Probably quite the punk. Grade 12 done! Did ok, for as much as you showed up. Couldn’t wait ‘til the whole struggle session was over. You’re not up to none of that college BS, no money, don’t care. Another thing to tie you down? Eff that! Your stupid friends all sold out. Man, they suck. Only one thing rules YOUR life right now, that’s frickin’ music. You want to experience things, go places, blaze your own path. Thing is, you play a little guitar, dig? Friends say you’re pretty ok, actually. Maybe that’s your ticket. Rock ‘n Roll, chicks, late nights, partying your ass off... FREEDOM!!!! Sounds pretty easy, too. Yeah man, that’s something you can get behind. Plus, it’s
really gonna piss off mom & pop. Lets start off with something easy, shall we?
Qualification Challenge
Post one photo in this thread of your rapturous Bendy Tone Ecstasy Guitar Face. Your Game of Tones competitors, and all those watching will be able to gauge the pain, the soul, the deep fiery need ingrained in your very being that drives you to claw your way into the music business. No holds barred, any way you can, this is 100% on you. Done proper, this photo of
YOU will drive fear into the hearts of your competitors and impress all watching. A photo so expressive, we can actually almost hear the note if we listen real close. Pic due by 11:00PM Central Standard time tomorrow, Friday Feb 24th.
COUNTDOWN TIMER If you participate in any way, you cannot be eliminated. However, opting out will absolutely take you out of The Game of Tones. A previously taken photo may be applied, if you feel it adequately brings the feels.
Immunity
This is an Immunity Round. Meaning, there will be a TTR community vote on the best submission via separate poll thread. 24 hours of voting. Top vote-getter earns the coveted right the be first to hold the sacred oil-rubbed
Ancient Idol of Toanwood - a magical relic which provides the bearer immunity for the next elimination round. It’s quite special to have, but a serious burden comes with it. You probably want it, though.
THREAD DERAILING. I know it's a thing on TTR. But please, try to keep this thread as clean as possible
for the good of the game. You can trash talk, you may post about your competitors, outside folks are absolutely welcome to cheer, jeer and comment. I want you all to have fun and partay on, But PLEASE.. try to keep this on-topic for Game of Tones. For gameplayers, and for particularly me organizing, it becomes way, way harder and super-disjointed if we have to sift through a bunch of NON GAME RELATED stuff for important and relevant game info. Also, there will be separate and frequent Poll/Vote threads which shapes the field of players, also AWESOME places to comment on the contest, the submissions, and cheer on our TTR Game of Tones Rock Stars!
Thank you in advance for understanding.
