A beginner's guide...
Welcome to the WorldVision Song Contest, based on the Eurovision Song Contest, aiming to provide and unite nations from different parts of the World through music. The WorldVision Song contest is an outlet to showcase the popular or native music of your nation. As with every contest, there are a few simple rules and regulations that you'll need to follow.
If you don't know how to sign up, use this form below; this should help. Not all of these fields have to be filled in, but it certainly helps.
- Code: Select all
[b]Nation Name:[/b] Your nation's name goes here.
[b]Official Broadcaster:[/b] Your official broadcaster for WV goes here.
[b]Song Title:[/b] The IC Song title goes here.
[b]Artist(s) Name(s):[/b] The name of your act goes here.
[b]Tune:[/b] The real life tune you're basing your song on goes here.
So basically, be original, try to be fair, don't be a jerk, and have fun. If you have any questions or concerns, please feel free to TG the Committee - it helps if you add the Committee's individual member names (Achaean Republic, Ertzei Kishim, Mister X, Polkopia, Todlichebujoku) in the "To:" box along with "WorldVision Committee" for a faster response.
Even if you've missed the deadline or aren't participating, feel free to discuss the contest in this thread or post commentary in the IC. You'll find that people greatly appreciate some good commentary.
With all that said, welcome to WorldVision!

STRIKE SYSTEM
Starting this edition, a new strike system for punishments will be implemented, where players breaking certain contest rules will receive strikes depending on the severity.
- One Strike: No immediate consequences;
- Two Strikes: One-contest ban;
- Three Strikes: Two-contest ban.
- Strikes expire after five editions; however, a strike expiring during a ban does not edit or shorten it.
- Bans stack; that is, a nation reaching three strikes within one edition is immediately banned for the following three editions.
- Bans erase strikes once they are completed.
Here are the following issues that can net you a strike:
One strike:- Not voting in the contest (will also disqualify a contestant from competing)
- Changing votes without Worldvision Committee supervision.
- Posting halftime results when not the host or WVC & refusing to remove results (which also results in disqualification)
- Posting an incomplete entry.
- Not declaring a puppet.
Two strikes:- Engaging in tactical voting.
- Intentionally refusing to vote.
- Attempts to evade a ban.
- Entering more than one puppet in the contest.
If you have any questions regarding the new strike system, please contact the Worldvision Committee and we can assist you.
