The only way was, as Yazz and the Plastic Population succinctly and accurately put it.. 'up', and so it was when Riton and Meleka's "Inside My Head" made twentieth in the preceding contest. Since then there have been finishes of 26th (Simon Patterson's "Taxi [Cumulonimbus Mix]"), 19th (Max Richter's "Spring 1 [Ade Laugee Remix]"), and 12th (Fuck Buttons' "Surf Solar) with the biggest and only Top 10 finish from Lovelife's "Dying To Start Again" which made it to 6th in BJSC LXVII with 143 points - both national records. A brief description of your nation Cumulonimbia lies directly to the NW of FARC and Lorikeet, and has a dramatic mountainous interior making much of the land uninhabitable. The capital Cyclone is located on the coast and much of the population live close to, or along the coastal strip where the lie of the land is relatively flat. Smaller settlements are located along the main trunk routes (the A1 and A2) that connects the country to FARC and Lorikeet, with the A1 also connecting the mainland to the segregated territory 'low' which is situated well into the mountains within FARC. The main genres of music listened to are alternative and dance music with a thriving music scene in and around the capital, however pop music and rock music is also relatively popular and make frequent incursions into the nations Top 10 national chart.

The following contest, we also qualified with the help of Marlon Roudette but the following contest was to be the biggest success in Ajanaeda's history finishing in 6th place with 151 points in the final, both national records. A brief description of your nation: Ajanaeda is located in the heart of the continent Miskantha and is bordered by Eledan, Unovia and Nonsuch. The country is primarily forest areas but does have four large cities (for the country) with population of 750,000 and more, the main one apart from Eska is called Zainzonsa with a population of just over 1,000,000.

Kevin has a projector screen which he uses to stream BJSC events in his backyard. It is a low-budget operation, but most residents attend because it’s the only access the nation has to BJSC programming. Kevin’s wife Sandy fills in when Kevin is sick or at work. Highest BJSC Finish: 35th in BJSC LXIV BJSC Records: No A brief history of nations participation in BJSC Harmonica debuted in the 64th contest and auto-qualified for the final due to semifinal results never being presented. Since then the nation has yet to earn a proper qualification. Joining an alliance has been of no benefit to Harmonica’s performance. The local BJSC fans tend to support Oslol more than their own country, aspiring to be top five in Oslol's "points received" list. A brief description of your nation In a land where people are outnumbered two-to-one by tumbleweeds, Harmonica has learned to embrace its middle-of-nowhere character and in fact give it some charm. The country benefits greatly from its proximity to neighboring Yehesi, where most residents travel for shopping and to experience basic aspects of civilization such as grass, trees, and carpet. Borders are also shared with Alteria and Altyr Muunilinst, whose names are understandably mistaken on a regular basis. Because of their low population and political apathy, Harmonica functions as an anarchy; however they do appoint a Lady Sunshine who serves as an ambassador. The current Lady Sunshine is Stephanie and she likes corn on the cob. The most popular genre of music is country.

A brief history of nations participation in BJSC One of the longest running participants but little success. Highest finish is 4, then 5 then 6. Nearly went a year without qualifying in 2014! A brief description of your nation An island between 3 continents but aligned to Orchidia, PRoJ has had a tumultuous history. There was an ancient Stone Age colony on the island dating to before the great BJSC world ice age and this is evident in the names of the older towns of Etxelur and Sarum, plus the establishment of ancient dykes to keep out the rising sea levels. This civilisation was repressed when the island was taken over by pirates in the 15th century. First established in its modern form the 15th century by rogue pirates, it soon flourished as a strong trading port due to it's strategic position between 3 continents and the proximity to the territory of Kopecka (there is an ancient causeway to this territory which flooded in ancient times). The pirate King, Colm I was crowned as the monarch of Jester's Kingdom in the year 1486 and his dynasty ruled for nearly 500 years. Following years of dissent by the lower classes comprising the descendants of the original pre 15th century population a peaceful revolution took place on 28 January 1976 and the Peoples Republic of Jester (later changed to PRoJ) was born allowing the island to become a developed country and leaving years of totalitarianism behind.

Any other population or demographic information: n/a Official BJSC Broadcaster: Trif-TV Highest BJSC Finish: 1st (LVI (Ghost Loft "So High") and LIX (The Kite String Tangle "Given The Chance")) BJSC Records: None from what I can tell. We did hold the record for least successful winner (Ghost Loft, 137 pts) for almost a year before being ousted by Hervé's 'Tear The House Up' A brief history of nation's participation in BJSC Plans were made to debut during summer 2012, but with registration being closed for whatever reason, these plans were delayed. After months of anticipation amongst our people, Trifoski made their debut appearance in BJSC LI, making the final and finishing in 20th place with Curxes' "Haunted Gold". 2013 was rather hit and miss for Trifoski overall, but with a few very memorable moments; after 3 DNQs in a row, we picked up our first win as Ghost Loft's "So High" unexpectedly scraped to victory in LVI. Just a few months later, The Kite String Tangle's "Given The Chance" gave us our second win, in a much more convincing fashion. 2014 was far more consistent for Trifoski, finishing in the top ten on 6 occasions during the year, 5 of those being consecutive (a run that continues into 2015, so watch this space ). A brief description of your nation Trifoski is situated in the Quilvorian continent, bordered by Vulkyria, Camdonia, Scherzland, Land of Jack and Fervorosia. A peaceful and carefree country at heart, plenty of residents are also very passionate about BJSC, though can get a little short-tempered and critical in the case of a string of mediocre/bad results (though don't we all tend to get kinda 'caught up' in the competition~). Still most people are very patriotic and faithful towards the nation, always proud to wear the Trifoski colours. July 28th was ordered to become a national holiday following Ghost Loft's victory on that date in 2013!

We started off our BJSC career with a bang by sending Alex Adair's 'Make Me Feel Better', which came in 7th and proceeded to finish 11th in the EOY Best Of VII. We then sent two glorious flops (both which managed to crack the final of the Rejects competition, and one coming in fifth), and then we had a moderate hit with the absolutely glorious 'Say My Name' by ODESZA which finished in 10th and gave us hope with it only to be shatered by us missing the final with Andy C's D'n'B BANGA 'Heartbeat Loud'. We then proceeded to win the entire contest with Josef Salvat, a budding newbie with some great tunes. We are currently hosting BJSC 71 of which the final will be held in just 3 days.

I still have no idea how they will look presentationally but I'm going to experiment this week with a few things to see how they look/work. One of my currently thoughts boils down to this: The Federal Republic of Ashton / Fejderand Republique d'Áskorza (Fotherington Islands) \ Silas (link to profile) \ Ashton in profile (Link to Ashton's country profile) \ Ashton's National Thread v3.0 (Link to thread) \ (Link to v1.0 & v2.0) Creating a hyperlink to each post in this thread so that over time you can update and maintain your records easily. I'm not entirely sure yet but if the formatting works then I'm thinking that's the best way to roll with it.

Link to national thread(s): http://www.buzzjack.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=80000 National Capital City: Daghan Population of Nation: 5 million Population of Capital: 1.7 million Any other population or demographic information: Lots of tall people. Most common eye colour is hazel. Official BJSC Broadcaster: Sonia Barkada TV (she is a Deandrian actress-turned-political activist) Highest BJSC Finish: 1st: Allie X - Sanctuary, BJSC 81 BJSC Records: none really that I'm aware of right now, but previously Deandria held the record for longest break from the contest followed by a return! Additionally, they happen to be the only nation who has won the contest, yet has never hosted. A brief history of nations participation in BJSC: Dalisska asked Deandria to join the contest for fun, so after some research, they did so. Deandria has in the past taken several breaks from the wacky world of BJSC, sometimes very long ones, but currently can't see it happening again any time soon. Deandria has been somewhat unlucky in the contest in general, having a lot more DNQ's than Q's in their seven years (on and off) in the contest. They did however manage to take it all with Allie X - Sanctuary in BJSC 81, which was the first contest of 2016! Sadly Deandria declined the opportunity to host the next contest due to financial reasons (lol not really), but currently is not ruling out hosting in the future. A brief description of your nation: Known as a peaceful nation, with a vibrant entertainment scene, which doesn't stop with music. There are also many Deandrian pioneers in areas such as visual art, particularly in videography, independent films and painting, also theatre and avant-garde poetry (is that a thing? Well it sounds cool). Deandria's sound has been described by another nation as "classy", a description that was received positively by Deandrians. However, they are generally unafraid to experiment a bit and send things that feel out of their "comfort zone" as well. The tag "alternative" probably fits well, with entries such as 'Zero Point', 'Expialadocious', 'Calm Down', the current 'Alchemy', and others, having been entered before. Sometimes we dabble in pop, an example being one of our more successful entries 'Sit Still, Look Pretty', which Hushkanukia kindly allowed and encouraged us to have after both countries had discovered it. Our only winner to date could probably be described as "electropop", and this kind of genre is one that I can see Deandria possibly sending again in the future, and had been sent by us previously also, with entries such as our debut entry 'Destroy Everything You Touch' and 'Slow Dancing' probably being able to be described as so. Deandrians truly enjoy the experience of discovering and sharing music. They are an enthusiastic and open nation, and this very much carries into the BJSC world as well. We enjoy seeing countries sending what are known as "inspired entries". Previously many Deandrians have felt uninspired by the contest, bored and exhausted by it, and as I mentioned, have taken several breaks. However, after a lot of reconsideration they are extremely happy to be back in the contest and since their latest return, are enjoying it more than ever and looking forward to future participation also.
