So after writing my entry and hating it, I've scrapped it and am starting over again with a new melody (same person & song title though)

It is You by Dana Glover is my new melody.

It was banned in The Sarian for that exact reason, our leader is very anti-LGBT. Out of character, of course, I am the complete opposite as many in NSSports will know, but RPing Putin's more extreme cousin is fun.

Yup, he ain't - 2nd time lucky like Ukraine :P

I'm still hoping this entire thing won't drag a month before voting commences... :unsure: WV31 was a pain to watch even as a bystander - it went even slower than the WA forums.

But very different, and it's extremely hard to change medium.

But well done for everyone who remembered Wil Cousins from BoF54! Back when he had two 'ls...

There have been periods of time where nobody posted for days, and we once even had to wait an entire week for one single nation to post their votes, but I leave for 4 days and we have an IC thread, 5 entire new pages of posts, AND 33 entries?

Anyway guys I'm back - again congratulations to Lyonsland - and I guess I might post my entry soon. Unfortunately this is the first time I didn't win the host bid when I submitted one - I wonder where it went wrong (probably just the amount of competition, maybe the stage design too?).
Also I want to disclose that, despite my problem viewing host bids with pictures hosted on Imgur, I ended up giving 10 points to Tödlichebujoku - showing that as long as I can get a glimpse of the proposed stage design, it won't significantly affect my vote.

(I find it hilarious that Lymantatia gets the 27th slot, because usually the first thing he does when a new thread is up is immediately reserve a spot, and he usually is one of the first 10 performers - in WV25 I worked for an hour on my entry and was about to become the first to post, only to find out Lymantatia beat me by only a minute and I had to be the 2nd performer)
