CHECK THE DATABASE BEFORE POSTING and other rules

[Malcolm]

Rules!

It's pretty basic. You create a thread, 1 song per thread. In the topic, list the use this format

[Song title / Artist / Bemani game / (Romanji,English,Japanese,Translation)]

Moderators will evaluate the lyrics and determine the validity (more or less whethere you actually wrote lyrics that resemble the song or you just wrote down words to try to pass them off). Once the are aproved, you will be awarded tokens and the thread will be locked. Simple enough huh?

For the translations, the languages we will accept for now are English-Japanese-Spanish-French. When we have more resources we will accept more languages.

Also, common sense, PLEASE ONLY SUBMIT LYRICS THAT HAVE NOT ALREADY BEEN DONE

For Example

Himawari. The japanese and romaji lyrics are done. So that means you can submit English, French and Spanish lyrics but NOT Japanese or Romaji. That's not hard is it?

Also, please only submit lyrics to songs that ... well, have lyrics! So, for example, lyrics for lights (from IIDX) or Colors (from ... well, just about everything) are fine. "Lyrics" for one or eight aren't, really. Lyrics for HELL SCAPER are right out. Random samples from old movies or techno sample CDs do not constitute lyrics (though rapping, of course, does). Also, if it's a song you can ask five people and get five completely different answers for what the lyrics are (like murmur twins), your submission probably won't be successful.

Another thing. The general understanding is that if you're submitting lyrics, it's because you transcribed it or hunted it down on the Internet or transliterated or translated it yourself. That's why we give you tokens. If you're posting something that was transliterated or translated by someone else, please credit that person. It's only fair.

On this note, why are there lyrics for both versions of murmur twins in the official database? They make as little sense as any other incorrect version that's been guessed at before - I don't see why they're in there. -_-

Sigh. Because there's a lot of crap in the lyrics database. Thanks for noticing.
