CQ, honestly I am amazed by how fast it took for you to make up that host bid. I planned mine for days.
I'm already sobbing over how good these bids are

Mine back in WV25 took about 2 months......

It takes me a few hours to make a bid. :) Mostly to post them.

This guy here. He gets it *hi-5*

Honestly, if I go for the host bid I dunno if I'd be able to keep up with it should I eventually win (knowing me, that'll be more like WV227). But still, could be fun. To Photoshop!

What if in the event you win, you decide to pass it to the person in second place?

But when you think of it really, I made myself most of the pictures in my bid (except for the venue - that exists IRL in Kazakhstan). Hence it took me quite a while.

That name thing, I've actually been wondering about that for ages.

If you're unable to keep up at all, it won't stop the contest. Remember WV23? Before it was even over, the host nation already CTE'd! But if you mean keeping up as in finishing the postcards, other details, etc, yeah, some of the former hosts have experienced problems with it before. Hopefully I won't this time, the planned postcards won't be as hard to make as the postcards from WV22 :)

Communist Quinntopia wrote:Thanks. My bid for WV24 took slightly longer - at least 3-4 hours, if not a day or two. My memory of planning it eludes me. This one didn't take as long as I didn't have as much writing in this. The images themselves took about 20-30 minutes, and the remaining time was the typing of the info.

Your host bid's nice, too. I love the gif of the stage during voting.


Thanks! I don't remember how much time exactly I took (to make the bid), but towards the end I just left the tab open for several minutes while occasionally checking for errors.

If the host nation CTE'D or is for some reason unable to continue hosting the contest... then it would go to the 2nd placed hostbid... it's one of the advantages of having the hostbid system..

National Final

Postby Bloodbath Generation » Wed Jul 03, 2013 12:49 pm

Syngið fyrir Veröld 3


ImageImage
Rebecca Meade (l) and Hayden Jarvies


Welcome to SFV, the Bloodbathian national final for both WV 27 and WHF 13. 2 artists, Rebecca Meade (17) and Hayden Jarvies (16), will each perform 2 songs, and one duet. From the 5 songs, televotes, domestic and international juries will vote to decide who will be our representative in the contests. Here are the first 5 competing songs:

Rebecca Meade

Twin sister of 4th place finisher Lauren Meade, her voice has vulnerability and emotion like no other artist can convey, especially at such a young age. Can the Meades make it 2-for-2?

Killgan Hill
Spilled Ink



Hayden Jarvies

16-year-old Hayden brings his summery, uplifting indie pop to the masses. With infectious vocals and a young, creative mind, is BG ready to expirement with his unique music?

Morning Glory
Anticulture



Hayden and Rebecca

With a very mainstream, radio-friendly song, Végéigni Ti (Your Touch) is a motivational, mid-tempo ballad that builds slowly, getting the raw emotion from the two singers. It's a safe bet, but is it not enough?

Végéigni Ti

Eleven Years of Torture? Well that sounds interesting....

In a nutshell, it was to describe the reign of the first "native" Kofeiyan who came into power by a coup in 1980 and ruled under a Marxist-Leninist state for 11 years before Kofeiya was so close to bankruptcy he had no choice to step down and get tried (and then executed in 2009). Before 1980, all leaders were Luziycan-Kofeiyans, they were black, but their roots were slaves from Kofeiya who lived in Luziyca.

Since 1991, there are natives in office, of course.

As for the melody for it, it'll be this.
