WORLDVISION SONG CONTEST 57 - THATCHER CITY, MISTER X
EXPRESS YOURSELF


Mister X invites you to express yourself at the 57th WorldVision Song Contest in Thatcher City. This bid to host this wonderful contest will take a completely brand new approach, because what we want to do is to highlight the innovation that Mister X can provide. The logo features a man reaching out for the stars, because he knows that expression is the only way forward. If one is to progress, one must discover who they are.

One's life must matter. And that's what WorldVision in Mister X will unlock. Passion. Desire. Determination. And above all else, the ability to unlock your future.




WHY SHOULD YOU RETURN TO THATCHER CITY?

Thatcher City hosted the runaway success that was WorldVision Song Contest 34. Now, Thatcher City has had even more major developments since. Thatcher City has seen many changes. Today, it's a bustling hive of all sorts of activities and cities, with nightclub attendances up 50,000% since WorldVision 34. In WorldVision 34, there were fields around the outskirts of the city, but such is the pace of development that it's perhaps better to say that nowadays, the outskirts are factories, whereas the middle is all fields. We're keen to grow our own crops and create an export-led economy, and Thatcher City is the epitomisation of globalisation. Thatcher City have always been peacefully radical. In 2001, they returned a TRP (The Right Party) candidate, saying they didn't like him very much, and could they please have another one. As the law of the land says, if the sheep lie down, it's because they're dead.

Image





JOHNSON STADIUM

Built within the last 3 years, the Johnson Stadium is representative of the innovation in Mister X. It can hold over 50,000 people and features one of the most modern safety systems in the world - each seat has under it a protective suit to protect from performances from bombs and so on. It is, of course, up to the audience as to whether they want to watch the contest in a suit or not, but it would stop them from being bombed by the performers.

Image





STAGE DESIGN

The stage was designed by a man known only as "the great architect" and features many LCD screens. It has been designed as a wide stage with an audience of over 50,000. It also features trapdoors, platforms, pyrotechnics, and anything you wish, really. This photo is taken from a performance at the opening of the arena at the Johnson Stadium, the venue of the contest. There's not really much more to say.

Image





POSTCARDS

Your nation's flag will be encapsulated in the circle of WorldVision and your nation's information listed below - in the colours of your nation's flag (or, if you'd prefer, any other colours of your choosing). Our postcards, like our bid, are going to be simplistic but professional and sleek-looking, almost as if the design could be reused at work, school, college, university, or any presentations. (OOC: The postcards will, like in WV34, appear in the IC thread as the list of countries).

Image





Because, really, what is Thatcher City? It's a professional, sleek environment, but it's not afraid to try new things. This host bid reflects that and so we urge you to come to Thatcher City to express yourself at the 57th WorldVision Song Contest.

DOTTY RAG GIRL TO REPRESENT ESTOGIUM

Postby Estogium » Wed Jun 07, 2017 6:57 am

DOTTY RAG GIRL TO REPRESENT ESTOGIUM WITH SONG, "GONNA, GONNA MASH IT UP (VA TE FAIRE FOUTRE) : WORLDVISION VERSION"




Dotty Rag Girl from Estogium has released her song that she will be sending to the WorldVision Song Contest. Compared to any of Estogium's recent entries, this song contains large amounts of profanity, and it is expect that the performance is to have staging of obscene nature. Here is a snippet of the lyrics.

Here is a snippet of the lyrics;
Usually I am not,
The one who is naughty.
But these days, I'm rotten,
I know I can rock your bottom.
I am me, no nitty.
No nitty with no gritty.
A fitty, at fifty
Driving in my Ferrari.

Va te faire foutre.
Va te faire foutre.
Va te faire foutre.
Va te faire foutre.





Nation: Estogium
Song: "Gonna, Gonna Mash It Up (Va Te Faire Foutre) : WorldVision Version"
Artist: Dotty Rag Girl

Tune: HERE

Impossible is just a big word thrown around by small men who find it easier to live in the world they've been given than to explore the power they have to change it. Impossible is not a fact. It's an opinion. Impossible is not a declaration. It's a dare. Impossible is potential. Impossible is temporary. Impossible is nothing.

TITANIUMLAND RETURNS!

After a long hiatus at the Worldvision Song Contest, Titaniumland is back! Joseph Griss, the head of Titaniumland National Television (TNT) and Marina Bre, the Minister of Arts of Titaniumland, the latter also Titan's representative at 40th Worldvision, announced that Titaniumland is finally back to Worldvision after 17 editions hiatus. They also announced our representative for this edition's Worldvision.

Image

ALICIA SUMNER
Alicia Sumner previously represented Titaniumland at the 33rd edition with the song, "The Beginning", placing 16th. Since then, Alicia has been named as "Powerhouse of The Era" by music critics and public. Her most recent album, Triumph topped the Titaniumland Albums Chart for straight 3 weeks and sold over than 230,000 copies nationwide in its first week.

During the interview with Jarrod Harmann, Alicia revealed some details of Titan's entry.

Heard you represent Titan's for this year's Worldvision? Is that true?
Yeah, I'm representing Titans for Worldvision this year. This one is the second time, the first was "The Beginning". I hope I won't disappoint Titans this time and take the trophy to Rowland.

So, what can we expect? What is the difference between this entry and your first entry?
"The Beginning" was all about getting angry with our conditions at that time and wishing to go back, while this entry will have more positive message that everyone can relate. This one is more powerful. I can't wait for you all to hear it.

Interesting. I can't wait either. When's the release? Tell us the details of who wrote the song?
The song remains secret until June 12, broadcast live from Rowland Arena in TNT, in a show called Triumph Gala, which I'll also be playing my songs from my recent album, Triumph. So yeah! For the song, I actually wrote it by myself but then got helped in arrangements and production by Samuel Hanson, which also produced some of my songs.

COMMITTEE UPDATE: WV56 SUMMARY

On 29 May, the Committee met to propose and discuss a number of motions. Here's what came out of it; all rules will apply to this contest and onwards:

24-48 Hour TG Notice
Aye 4 (Tod, Kal, Mrx, N&P) - 1 Nay (Eth)

The Committee will be required to telegram those who have not yet voted in the IC thread 24-48 hours in advance of the Committee deadline.

First-past-the-post Host Voting
Aye 3 (Mrx, N&P, Eth) - 2 Nay (Tod, Kal)

Host voting will now consist of voting for your single favourite candidate, instead of the points system previously used.

Committee By-Elections
Aye 5

Elections will now be held to replace a Committee member that has resigned.

Deadline Reform
Aye 3 (Tod, Kal, Eth) - 1 (N&P) - 1 Nay (Mrx)

Hosts now are able to use either the official Committee deadline as a cutoff for voting, or the posting of the final results/conclusion in the IC as a cutoff, details (such as on how late the host can post) are still in progress. Those who post their votes after the cutoff are currently still face the same consequences as they do now.

Recall Elections
Aye 5

Committee members can now be impeached through a petition and a vote. Details still in progress.

Defer Motions Until WV57
Aye 3 (Mrx, N&P, Eth) - 2 Nay (Tod, Kal)

Motions passed within one contest will be enacted for the next contest, as opposed to immediately enacting motions.

Transparency
Aye 5

Not really an act- this is a general motion to increase transparency. Details still in progress.

Graduated Consequences/Punishments System
Still being discussed. Currently we're in favour of a points system, but still hashing out much of the system itself.
