WorldVision Song Contest 47 | OOC & DISCUSSION

[Normandy and Picardy]

Qua Vola Gantar Pôr Norgwean? - The National Final of Normandy and Picardy

Despite winning last edition with an internal selection, ÑNÑ have decided to give the public a say on the next entry, and present to them "Qua Vola Gantar Pôr Norgwean?" (Who will sing for Normandy?) The national final will be decided by a public vote and international juries, each making up 50% of the result. It is unknown why this National Final was created, and no official explanation has been given. However, if the rumours are to be believed then the delegation wanted to give the public more choice, and others say the country is less concerned now they have won. But, as far as anyone can tell ÑNÑ are as involved and excited for the contest, as are the Normand public and the WorldVision community in general.

[Dreamplanet]

Ok, i'm going to try making a comeback.

Song: Disappearing
Author: Anna Dos Santos

And to prevent procastinating, i'm gonna write the song already.

[The Sarian]

Can we have a rule change so that countries who reserve a post in the thread but don't post a song are disqualified from the contest for one edition?

[Mister X]

To the tune of: Here - Troye Sivan (Originally by Alessia Cara)

Yes. Just... yes.

Can we have a rule change so that countries who reserve a post in the thread but don't post a song are disqualified from the contest for one edition?

We'll discuss this.

Hallelujah you've bought it up. It's really annoying and doesn't make sense in a real life situation.

For the Pre-Party, I've decided it will be a "Getting to know the artists better" theme, so whenever you can, just write about your act (this can also be used as your little intro you write your entry) and I will make a thread about it.

Inspired by this, I decided to adapt the glossary for Worldvision

If you have anymore to add, feel free to post here on the thread ^_^

Ekoz: A nation who has competed in Worldvision for a particularly amount of time, without winning. More often than not, this nation has came close to winning once or multiple times.
Examples: Ekoz, Mister X, Talvezout

Polkopia: A nation that has won and/or done very well at Worldvision.
Examples: Polkopia, Kishrael

Talvezout: A nation that usually changes their entry, or some part of it. More often than not, this change so either reverted or changed further.

EDO: A nation that usually sends bizzare, inappropriate, or memorable entries. Usually is related to a nation that sends serious entries.
Examples: Electrum Diplomatic Offices, Kasanova-Koratica, Lactactia

Knife: An entry that's "hard", or particularly fast and upbeat/uptempo. This and the following three entries come from the Mister Xian commentary.
Genre examples: Hard rock, Metal

Bread: An entry that is not particularly soft, yet not particularly hard.
Genre examples: Pop rock, alternative rock, alternative pop, indie rock

Butter: A particularly soft entry, yet not soft enough for jam.
Genre examples: Pop, indie pop, synthpop

Jam: The softest rating. Usually used for ballads.
Genre examples: Chanson, orchestral music, opera

Frozen jam: A song that starts off soft, or "jam", before going and becoming a harder song.

Broken knife: A song that starts off hard, or "knife", but then goes soft.

Fluff: An entry that is nice and enjoyable, but is quickly forgotten and/or has no substance. Usually does mid-table in voting, although it may occasionally do well or do bad.

Death fluff: The same example, although in this case the fluff song is more gorier, bloodier, or violent.
Examples: Gregoryisgodistan, The Sword Bloke, Owner-osity

I suppose I'm an EDO then?

I can't promise I can complete an entry this time, but I'll try of course. I'll have a national final up later, with a few really diverse songs if I may say so myself.

Bad Nazi: A nation that makes an all right entry, then a mediocre one, then drops out, returns, and repeats the process (Okay, this one isn't true yet, but I fear it will be...)
