I will sincerely apologyze for my last foolish post.
After reading Starikun's post and doing some editing and many thoughts,
I will give a serious and honest statement.
I, who came up with that idea, agree with starikun.
Due the lack of people, its really hard to make our own PV and fill the singing parts.
Of course we can all genderbender, but I think it wouldnt be the same
like with having 20-25 singers, which gives 'smiling' that group touch.
I really intend to cover with all our staffs.
I was really happy about the many responses at the beginning
and I'm sure that all were enthuastic and happy like me.
But the responses are getting less and it seems like
that we cant get more people at the moment.
So Im in the opinion that we are at the point,
where I'd like t say to pause with the planning.
Im saying pause and NOT stop!
I'm 1000% serious about this and I promise that I will do everything in my might
to finish this project.

So during the break, while we are getting more people,
we can improve ourselfs through learning and
getting experience either in animation, mixing, singing or drawing.
I really had fun during this short time with you all together by
this and I hope that you also felt this way.
Eventhough things didnt work by the first attempt.
I hope that everyone has not lose the courage and motivation.
I'd be really, really happy, if we one day can going on
with this project all together again
with many new staffs (hopefully) with the same motivation, enthuaism and ambition.
So I'd like to know how you all think about this.
Thank you all for everything till now!

P.S.: Its only how I currently, personally think about that.
During the break we can maybe let people add themselfs to the list for this project
and going on with the things when we gain enough people.
Please first read the first part and then onwards click on the spoiler,
if you think like me.

Spoiler:

@Akira haha you're fine, you're fine *pats* like hope said, the "staffs joining the chorus as of before now (yesterday) can join"
Don't worry too much about it~
Ah and also who was the user that helped? I'll like to keep that in mind (he/she can join by the way, I'll take your word for it~)


Lol by the end of this all this talking younomi....you might intentionally diss everyone because of your way of talking XD

ah...Starikun and I can be very blunt so don't take everything we say too offensively or anything...lol this is why we are called "brutally honest" at school XD
I try very hard to avoid this hence why I can take extra long to respond since I try to proofread like mad

**EDIT**
GAHHHHH so slow (/A\)

**EDIT2**
ah yes forgot to mention, we aren't very easily insulted too

cause we insult each other so much XD

LOL took much time till I understand taht we got a forum LOL *yea stupid me
Super great work Hope!! our beloved admin <3<3
LOL we insult each other? rolf.

I think its a really good idea with the tutorials ^^
It will help many singers, mixers and animators.
And it will also maybe helps the chorus^^

now that we got the forum I think its the best to delete the blogs and sides ??
o.o

I think with the amount of people we have at the moment, it won't be enough. I think that maybe we should slowly let people join in, cause after looking at the smiling videos, we are seriously in need of more people.

Everyone could genderbend either by pitching or singing (lol) then we would have some "guys"

What do you people think?

TT^TT Y'all I feel really horrible saying this but I think I'm gonna back out of this whole Smiling Chorus thing, if not the Wiki altogether. I joined 'cuz I saw a couple grammatical errors but by the time I signed up, somebody had fixed them. I'm not tech/mixing/actually-doing-more-than-clicking internet savvy, so I don't have any links to sharing sites so y'all can hear my samples.

WHAT SAMPLES?????? I havent even officially covered anything ever anyways...I havent contributed to the wiki....you guys just have fun with the chorus, okay? ill find it wherever when yall are done. m(__)m i dont even know how to delete my account orz

For "males" Kaoru is a genderless & I can genderbend.

Sorry you guys. Now it's official i can't do the chorus. I gave up Japanese music for Lent.

I'll try to genderbend since my voice is apparently somewhat deep compared to most girls my age???
I don't actually sound like a boy or even someone genderless though orz.

@RippinJack
Its a pitty, but I think we cant do anything about it.
But I think small contributions are as important as big one.
Everyone doing different things, so that the wiki is getting more complete.

Rather than doing something that requires so many people, how about we switch to something with less people like Mr. Music [or something like Maji Love 1000%, but that really doesn't have anything to do with VOCALOID...]

LOL MAJI LOVE 1000% LETS GO

but then we will have too many people even if we pick Mr.Music right?

hm. I can tweak the script so it will have 10 singers x'D or other song that's not originally a vocaloid chorus is good, too. ah, and will Kaoru join this one then?

Or we can do something like Secret Time After School. If needed, I'll drop out :3 I actually want to focus on mixing more than singing ^^; I only applied for singing as a back up or a minor role just in case we don't have enough singers anyways XD

kaoru will join anything most likely. c:

omg secret time after school .///////.
just listen to NRP's version of it yesterday and... *speechless* .////.
that song sure is... moanful LOOOL

hmm. I actually wanna do mr. music more than secret time after school, lol. but either song is good.
I guess I'll make something like a poll later.

For maji love, hmm. how many singers in it again? //forgetful

i can contact kaoru x'D i'm in a chorus with hir (LOL) and i have hir skype.

I think there are 5? in Maji.

Hmm, I'm just gonna suggest one more song or so, so we have a few more choices?

How do you guys feel about Hitoshizuku's Bad End Night? I think we have about the right number of singers...

(I was going to suggest Madness of Duke Venomania, but then I remembered we don't have a male singer/someone resembling a manly GAKUPO-like singer)

Off topic but when I saw the 1000% in what crystellaris the first thing I thought was "1000% LOVE YEAA~" lol (if you didn't get my reference it's to "Maji Love 1000%")

well I agree with crystellaris we should wait a bit till we get better

@Meta I thought only Gakupo (besides Kaito) sang in that song........heh I forget......

@Sen Well, there's also Gumi, Luka, Meiko and Miku, plus Kaito, but they all only get about one line each so I guess that's not the best idea.
I probably should think things through before I type it out.

Oh btw, I can be a rapper if you want Just in case you needed
