Re: [Contest] Hatsune Miku Project Diva F Prize Pack

Would it be possible for you to complete it within the month? I would like to be fair here and give you the time you need, those were my rules when I set up the contest after all. Also be positive Blu. Who knows, you might be the winner at the end of all this.

Could be possible, what obstacles we are facing now is school.
I have no problems in school but the Main Character of the video we are making is busy when it comes to school.
Maybe by this month we may finish it, but rumors to say that our Semestral Break will begin at October means I have a 2 week Vacation.

Here is my Entry. I may get edited. [FanFiction]
Please read and give me advice or suggestions on it to be a better writer.
Thank you!
The World of Music by XJes6
Life is a pain. Reality is torture. Nothing ever changes for me. My name is Akashi Junchiro. I’m an average musician singer but want to go pro. I found a forum site and won a contest that allowed me to test a new game where I would be able to live in that world. After that, I became an official NEET and started doing my best for a new life style. Now, I finally got the beta type PS5 with wireless helmet and the new Project Diva F Advance game. I am one of the few people who are the beta testers for this new system and game! I am now able to leave my reality and enter the delusional world of music. As I close the door behind me, I start to wonder what will happen on my trip. Will others worry about me? It turns out while your in-game, time in it is twenty times faster than reality. That means one hour in the real world is twenty hours inside the game. I setup the console and started the game. I shut my eyes and was transported into the game. I left the old world for a new one.
It seems like the other beta testers have already arrived. You can hear the commotion from town square. Town Square seemed to be a stage. Then all of a sudden, a smoke started to fill the air. It was in all sorts of colors.

“Woah, something’s happening!” I shouted.

“Hello everyone!” said a voice. “Welcome to Project Diva F Advance, we are glad to have you all here. Now, to commemorate our opening; I will sing a song for you all! Weekender Girl, hit it Kaito!”
-Music starts playing-
“The strobe lights are glimmering… The led lights is throbbing… Let’s run, take my hand…”

Suddenly, the stage was all bright and someone was being raised onto the stage. The figure was obviously female. She had aqua-blue hair, big eyes, and a magnificent voice. She was dashing back and forth across the stage singing energetically; it was an amazing sight. Before I knew it, the song ended and she started to introduce herself.
“Everyone! My name is Hatsune Miku! I am the main singer of this game. Welcome to the world of music. This place is where you can do whatever you couldn’t do before in the music industry! There’re three districts in this game: vocals (singing music), instruments (playing music), and Composing (making music). If you have any questions please check your information box in the main menu. You may choose the any district as of now; however, once you choose one, you can never change it. I will be in the vocals district! Bye!”
With that long introduction, she vanished into thin air. I opened up the menu and read the information box as quickly as I can so I can start living in this new world. In the information box, it seems that this world is like the old one. Currency, in this world, is obtained by winning rewards from each district and you can buy all sorts of items from shops. There are buildings, hideouts, houses, hotels, even food stands, all operated by NPCs. This world is quite amazing compared to reality.
After reflecting on my interests, I decided to be a vocalist. Not only do I love singing, but it is easy to earn currency because all you need to do is raise your volume accurately to the gameplay. I selected my occupation and walked to my district. Everyone else was socializing with others. I feel like an outcast. Maybe I should make some friends; I hope this will turn out better than high school. I decided to check out the work area. I wondered if anyone is just as cautious as I am. I sighed. Probably not, people here just want to escape the world they’re used to like me and won’t give a thought until tomorrow. As I walk into the vocalist studio, I found a counter and several rooms. It turned out that the vocalist studio was gigantic in size. I started talking to the NPC at the counter.
“Hey, I was wondering how you can earn money” I asked. I already knew this, but it doesn’t hurt to ask again.
“Sir, wages are determined by the scores you earn while playing the games. In each room, there is a microphone, scoreboard, wage dispenser, and list of songs. You choose your song with your brain waves and everything else is operated by your hands. Do you have any other questions?” he asked.
The NPC’s voice was monotone and only answers what you ask. Maybe I should be more specific in my questions in the future. He was holographic and transparent. It amazes me that the game can do this as well. He looked well designed as well. Why does his voice lack enthusiasm I wondered.
“Is this like karaoke?” I asked. I imagined this to be like karaoke where we just sing and have fun. Turns out I was wrong.
“No. Each room is a Virtual Vocal Materialize Room or VVMR. When you start to play, the room will transport you into a different location and you must mimic the lyrics and movements of your module. Doing this accurately will help you acquire more currency.” He said.
Gah! Not only do I have to sing, but I have to follow the module’s movements as well. This doesn’t seem as easy as I hoped it would.
“Is there a tutorial game I can practice for today?” I asked
“Indeed, the room to the left is the tutorial room. #10” he said.
I said thank you, and hurried to room 10. I wanted to see for myself how this will work out. I opened the door to room 10. Nothing seemed unusual. To me, the room seemed like a normal karaoke box room. I decided to test out the tutorial to see what I’m up against tomorrow. The only song that was available was “Eva’s Polkka”. As I selected the song, the room started to rearrange itself into a classroom model. A screen showed up explaining what to do and how to do it. Lastly, a module popped out of the ground. The module was the same as the one on stage! I believed her name was Hatsune Miku, but I’m not sure. I wanted to ask her something.
“Umm, M-Miku-san w-what are you doing?” I stammered
“Please refrain from talking and listen to the screen. Thank you” she said.
The voice was all cold and unnatural. It was complete opposite to the one on stage at town square. Can this Miku be the same as the one before? Maybe she is more serious this time… I looked away from her and looked at the screen. To play the game, I must hold the microphone and read the lyrics in tune. By listening to the music, I should be able to sing correctly. In addition, I must move my body similarly to the module to earn more points. That means dancing as well as singing is optional for more money! I felt relief that I wouldn’t need to move as much. After the screen turned black, another tutorial came. It seems that the symbols circle, triangle, square, and cross, represent your arms and lefts. I guess, this determines how you earn extra points in the game by accurate correspond your actions to the screen. After the symbols disappear, the music started playing and lyrics were scrolling across the screen. I imagine that this is the real tutorial after all that information. I started sing with melody and walked around the classroom. The song didn’t seem very difficult; actually it was easy for me. I was even able to follow Miku’s movements. At the end of the song, there was this final pose. I guess this is what those symbols are for. I had a 2 second countdown to react to the pose. I stretched my right arm to the circle, left arm to the triangle, left foot to the square and right foot to the cross. I made a weird looking “X” but it seemed fine for the screen. From the scoreboard, I looked at how well I did. Turned out that my vocals were excellent, but my movements were sloppy. I passed but I didn’t feel satisfied. It was getting late, and I haven’t eaten or found my house. I started leaving the vocalist studio and started looking for a place to snack.
If I remember correctly, each user was given a home and ten thousand points for food and accessories. Each house is configured to look like the one you’re used to in reality. I stopped by a ramen shop to eat as quickly as possible to find my house. After registering to the vocalist district, my house is number 20. I ran to my house to see if everything was true. It turned out that the house I entered… was exactly like my house in reality. The kitchen, the living room, the bathroom, even my room was exactly how it was before I played the game. I lie down on the bed and started wondering how my life can change from this experience. Would anyone look for me in the real world? Is it possible to stay here forever? Can you die here? Is there such thing as PVP or battles? All these rushed into my mind. I don’t even know what I’m going to be doing tomorrow.
-click-
Suddenly, the television in my room turned on… Miku-san was on screen.
“Evening everyone! Miku here! I hope you had an excellent time in this world! Now to end our opening and this event! I will sing “Online Game Addicts Sprechchor” Hope you all enjoy it!” she exclaimed.
As the music starts, and the crowd cheers, I just stare at her figure. It is amazing how swift she moves and how her voice sounds. She is dressed in purple and silver with yellow traces of lines in the clothing, something like Tron. The voice of hers traveled everywhere and it was very soothing. Last thing I know, I fell asleep.
It was the year 2025, when you are able to live in the virtual world. Every person’s dreams can come true just by submitting your mind into a game. This may sound like paradise, maybe it is paradise. However, nothing is perfect. Everything has its pros and cons. Getting into a game is simple. The problem now is… how do you get out?
Proof it is mine

Re: [Contest] Hatsune Miku Project Diva F Prize Pack

Blu, would it be possible to have an update on the status of your entry? I'm off this month from work so I plan to take some time to get things together for the judging but I need to know if it will be possible to add yours to the list.

Well right now we are finished but the Editing is the only thing left we need, This month may give me a tiring month 'cuz I have a Field Trip, P.E. Aerobics Competition, Marathon and Exams.
But after all that it's our Semestral Break.

But I've made this video a long time now, it's just a preview.

The preview maybe unrelated to the contest but once we get finish, it'll surely be related to project diva
Or we could get in the Project Diva Game :3

Is judging still going on? :o

Darksidehearts · Oct 22, 2013

Re: [Contest] Hatsune Miku Project Diva F Prize Pack

Since I haven't heard any update from Blu from the last posting. I plan to start the judging on Monday.

BluRockShooter · Oct 23, 2013

Re: [Contest] Hatsune Miku Project Diva F Prize Pack

Sorry it took long because my Mom banned us from using the Internet/Computer in 1 1/2 week, anyways for my update.

My semstral Break finally started and I am going to finish it before Monday.

Though I work alone so yeah Editing takes a while.

And also I was about to finish this before November 1, well I guess October 28 is a challenge >_<

Re: [Contest] Hatsune Miku Project Diva F Prize Pack

Alright, if you think you can get it done by that timeline then I can wait a little longer Blu. Sorry, I don't mean to rush your entry but you can understand that I want to get this on it's way.

No it's ok, I'm sorry that it took 6 months for me to finish this.
I may be the worst contestant to post on time >_<

Which timeline by the way?

Suyo · Oct 23, 2013

Re: [Contest] Hatsune Miku Project Diva F Prize Pack

A quick note from the staff side: We, the ProjectDIVA.net and the Project DIVA Wiki team, are distancing ourselves from the contest and are not responsible for it, as long as we are not involved in other ways like running the contest or judging it. The contest is run privately by Darksidehearts, and not by the ProjectDIVA.net team, even though he's staff. If you have any problems with the schedule or judging, please contact him instead of the other staff or other contestants.

Darksidehearts · Oct 23, 2013

Re: [Contest] Hatsune Miku Project Diva F Prize Pack

This whole ordeal has gone on far longer that what I would have liked. It is completely my fault for not having a better schedule and Suyo is correct, this contest is run by me exclusively and has no direct affiliation to the site or the staff. I have enjoyed being able to use this forum as a member and was allowed to use it as a platform to put something together that everyone could enjoy and I have ruined the experience by letting this contest mess up so badly. I apologize to everyone involved, you deserve better than this and I know it. Thank you for your continued patience, I will get this sorted out as quickly as I can.

Darksidehearts · Oct 25, 2013

Re: [Contest] Hatsune Miku Project Diva F Prize Pack

Here is my itinerary looking forward:

Monday: The discussion on the judging will begin.

The current list of judges
- Infinity (if he is available)
- My friend Greg (I haven't really patched things up with him but he will help for the sake of this contest.)
- Myself
I might try to get some other people involved if they are free to work on this.

Please keep in mind that I do not go back to work until the fourth of November, so even if the winner is selected ahead of time I will not be able to send the package until I have the money to do so. I get paid every week but bills and other expenses like the mortgage and car insurance come first. So it will most likely be the second week before I know what I'm dealing with. I realize that is a lot to ask of your patience but it is the best that I can do.

Also I just want to make another note here, the way this contest was handled is purely my fault and had nothing to do with any particular person's entry. What held this thing up so long were errors on my part with timing and funding. I won't go into elaborate detail on here but a lot of personal issues came into play and I should have had a better back up plan before attempting a large contest like this, end of story.

infinity · Oct 26, 2013

Re: [Contest] Hatsune Miku Project Diva F Prize Pack

BluRockShooter · Oct 31, 2013

Re: [Contest] Hatsune Miku Project Diva F Prize Pack

Enjoy Watching! ^^

Edit
I think my video was not related to Project Diva and to the rules...

Any update available for the contestants?

Darksidehearts · Nov 12, 2013

Re: [Contest] Hatsune Miku Project Diva F Prize Pack

Infinity sent me his list a couple of days ago and I'll be making mine this week. Greg is coming back from Boston in a few days so we'll meet to talk about it. Now having said that, I would like to have a winner selected by Monday if at all possible but it might be next Friday depending on what he's doing. Once a winner is selected I will personally PM them and once I have received a response there will be formal announcement it here. The winner along with their winning entry will be featured on both this thread and the Facebook page. Once again I thank you all for your continued patience.

Darksidehearts · Nov 17, 2013

Re: [Contest] Hatsune Miku Project Diva F Prize Pack

Well now it's official, I have my list completed. I'll be meeting with Greg tomorrow.
