well in a while, I think I'm gonna open a new thread where every country can confirm their entries after we have enough participants for the 1st edition :D

On the song entry, do you want an original video put onto youtube or can existing youtube video's be used? If the later then you allow official videos?

any kind of video that's up on youtube or you can uploaded it's acceptable ;) official vid, live performace, fan made video doesent matter really :D what matters is the song :)

and the song rules can be read in the first post ^_^

So someone could pick say 'Oasis - Wonderwall' or some other popular song and enter with that.

I think it needs emphasising really that a large point of these things is to introduce others to new music, so although you can do huge hits in essence those who do miss part of the point by entering huge stuff everyone's heard of and essentially, if they win, only do so because everyone knows the song :lol:

still I Think it should be up to the player to decides which song should present his own country, hit or not hit it's up to the player :P

I'm reaveling that I'm gonna enter with some Macedonian or at least Balkan artist for the 1st edition not sure which one yet :kink:

Hey there :)

since this forum is kinda slow in the off Eurovision season, I talked to David and he agreed, so we can start an ESC like song contest with our own countries :o yup and our very own country flags too :D

so here are the rules for the BuzzJack Song Contest borrowed from the ''Nation Song Contest" on the esctoday.com forum:

The Logo for the 1st edition in Bokitown, Bokia made by Tyron :w00t:

http://img209.imageshack.us/img209/5167/bjsczr5.png

and let me sum up for those who can't bother read them :P

so in short:

 

You need to create your own (fantasy) country , name it and create your very own country flag :)

for the contest you can enter whichever artist and song you like (covers are alowed too) so artist's country (real country) does not matter, the only thing is one artist can participate in the current edition of the contest, with one song for one country ( so if anyone enters a Madonna song Madonna is taken for that edition but for the next one another country is free to choose her :) )

the main rule about the song choices is that only Eurovsion songs are NOT ALOWED also ESC prequalification songs (ex. Making Your Mind Up entries) but of course you can enter an ESC artist with some not esc song :) or whichever artist u like as I said :)

so even if your are not familiar with the original Eurovision Song Contest doesn't matter since the ESC songs could not be entered on the BJ version of this contest :music:

as for the voting we have the ESC style of votes here : you vote for your top 10 fave songs> 12 points for your 1st placed, 10 for your 2nd fave , 8 for your 3rd fave....to 1 for your 10th ranked song :)

we gonna use YouTube videos (no mp3 sharing ^_^ ) and u can send offcial videos, live performances, fand made videos doesnt matter really...

and another similarity with the real ESC is that thw winning country (player) have the rights to host the next edition!!!of course only if he/she want's too :D

and that's basicly it! and my in short turned not to be so short :lol:

but ask anything that you don't understand or like to know more about it!

I hope we gonna have some interest in this game and gonna have some fun and only fun here :cheer:

I soon gonna post my country name and my flag :w00t:

if you are familiar with this game from some other forum you can also start signing in in this thread posting your country names and your country flags :yahoo:

so let's play :dance:

Yeah, it is up to the player, but even so it would be better if there were mainly unknown songs that people don't know as opposed to in essence a top 40 rundown :lol:

oh thnx it's a borrowed idea actually :lol: this exist on few esc forums allready :)

I thought it would be fun to bring it up here since this is my fave forum EVER :wub:

Boyan's the brains of the operation, I just did the logo :heehee: Although I do know a little about these things from ESCToday's version of it ^_^

I really like this idea! I would participate but I don't know many non-Top 40 songs :(
