GMC KEYWORDS HUNT COMPETITION! Let's shape our site together! You have probably noticed underlined words in the lessons and forum : screenshot These are GMC Keywords and those words are clickable and offer quick explanation for various terms. Examples : Palm muting, Fusion, Arpeggio (try clicking on the words) ______________________________________ How to enter the competition: 1. Find as many keywords which are not currently in the database (the ones that are NOT underlined and clickable when browsing the lessons, forum...) - yet should be explained. 2. Write down the short explanation for each keyword in this format : "Keyword - short explanation/description" Example : "Palm Muting - Palm muting is a playing technique performed by placing the outer side of the picking hand, below the little finger, against the strings near the bridge. This deadens or mutes the strings, resulting in a tighter sound. This is an ideal technique for chunky metal riffs!" 3. Send us your entries to : [email protected] or via forum PM The more entries/keywords you submit the better chances of winning! We'll look both at quantity of newly discovered keywords and descriptions/explanations text and format. Tip for the texts: try to explain and define the term/keyword in as shortest possible text. Our instructors often say this - thinking about and trying to explain different guitar terms/topics, even the simplest ones, is a very good learning experience and gives you a whole new perspective. We hope that you'll get a chance to explore our lessons archive and forum more in depth and learn new things while writing the explanations for the keywords/unexplained terms you find. After the competition is over - we will also update all the keywords and add the ones that you have discovered - lets shape our site together for current and future GMCer generations! ______________________________________ THE PRIZE 1 YEAR SUBSCRIPTION TO GUITAR PLAYER MAGAZINE  ______________________________________ Details of competition: - The competition deadline for entry submission will be August 31st 2012. - Feel free to use this thread for any questions you might have - Please do not post your keywords entries in this thread. Please send them to "[email protected]" or via PM. Good luck with the hunt!  EDIT : Competition is now closed - click here to see the winners! -------------------- For GMC support please email support (at) guitarmasterclass.net

Please let me know if you have any questions about the competition. A couple more questions. All those definitions link up to this page https://www.guitarmasterclass.net/wiki/index.php/Main_Page It seems that it only takes the definition header . So are we suppose to edit the wiki or just send you the definitions? What are we allowed to define? Can we give a better definition of Palm Muting, if it were the case or just definitons that haven´t been created. Regardless of that, are we also allowed to make definitions not only for techniques but artists? Kind regards, korblitz |

Q: So are we suppose to edit the wiki or just send you the definitions? A : No need for editing wiki. You just need to send in definitions in this format : "Keyword - definition" Q: What are we allowed to define? Can we give a better definition of Palm Muting, if it were the case or just definitons that haven´t been created. A : Let's focus primarily on definitions that haven't been created yet (the ones that are not underlined on the site). Q: Regardless of that, are we also allowed to make definitions not only for techniques but artists? A: Absolutely! Please feel free to send in definitions for any keywords/terms you find useful. For example : artists, music genres, theory terms, guitar parts, software terms, abbreviations and any term that would benefit from having a clickable additional explanation and that is not already included in our database. Please let me know if you have any questions and good luck with the hunt!
