IC THREAD
The current edition marks the 100th edition of the world-renowned WorldVision Song Contest. For one hundred editions, nations from around the world have been united through the medium of music regardless of ethnicity, culture and political ideology to create one of the worlds biggest musical competitions. However, some nations have sent some songs where they felt that they could've improved on a thing or two or that it should've been given a better placing. Thus, after a quick vote, we have announced the "Second Chance" edition of the WorldVision Song Contest, where they can try to right some wrongs.
Important Dates
Contest opens - July 11th, 20:00 BST
Signups close - July 25th, 20:00 BST
Contest closes/Voting starts - August 1st, 20:00 BST
Voting ends - August 8th, 20:00 BST
- The 'Best Of' Edition will follow the same format as the regular WorldVision Song Contest. The voting format will remain exactly the same, though voters will be required to also specify which entry they are voting for if a nation has sent 2 entries.
- Nations are to enter any entry that has entered a previous edition of the contest under the same name of that nation provided that it has not won the contest; nations are free to edit the entry's performance, however the song's lyrics, or translation/meaning if not in English, must be about 80% identical to the original. If a nation is found to have edited their lyrics beyond that, their entry will be disqualified. If you are rewriting lyrics, please consult with the Committee to ensure it will pass.
- Each player may enter up to two entries. This can be two from one nation, or one each from two nations. However, each player will only vote once.
- Unfortunately, debuting nations cannot enter the contest, by the nature of the theme.
- The host will be the runner-up of the WorldVision 100 bidding process.
- See here for information on the format of the regular edition of the WorldVision Song Contest.
On this note, we are currently considering whether or not to implement televote in voting - this will be confirmed at a future date.
