K, so in between BJSC XVI and XVII we're having a break from the main contest! Call it a holiday if you will :cheer:

 

To keep us all occupied in this time however, we're having a Spin-Off contest in which there is a theme which all enterred songs must adhere to. Last time it was songs that reached #10 in the UK charts, this time you get to decide again! The results of this contest don't count towards your official BJSC stats so use it as an oppertunity to do something different.

 

You have three themes to choose from then:

Foreign Languages: All countries must enter a non-english song to the contest.

 

Remixes: All countries must enter a song which has been remixxed in some way from it's original form.

Eurovision: All countries must send a song previously enterred in the Eurovision Song Contest.

 

Choose carefully!

 

The contest will otherwise act just as a normal contest with a confirmation thread opening SOON.

 

VOTE CLOSES TUESDAY 8PM

Remixes!

Foreign language, but I'm not sure if I have time to enter both contests, so I might have to give the spin off a miss

remixes.

Foreign language FTW! :D

Not amazing choices, but out of those 3 ESC.

 

Tbh I really don't see why we NEED a spinoff. We call it a 'break' but at the end of the day it's still BJSC, no? The last spinoff and people's disapproval just highlighted the fact nobody really cares.. I'll probably enter but I shalln't be too interested.

Foreign Languages. I wouldn't mind remixes either though.

REMIXES! (Is this including Candlelight Mixes of songs? :unsure:)

Not amazing choices, but out of those 3 ESC.

No ones forcing you to enter - It's not as serious as the usual contest so don't worry if you don't feel like enterring ^_^

Either but Eurovision.

foreign language FTW :D

 

I can't wait to see the results of this poll. I want the contest now :lol:

Foreign one pleeeasee :cheer:

Foreign Language. I'd be perfectly fine with Remixes though. Eurovision would be AWFUL.

Eurovision gets Ashton's vote.

Completely agree. I don't think it'll win the poll though...although there are a lot of ESC lovers on BJ, there are certainly lots of members who are not so keen too.

I don't think Eurovision will get any/much support, so I've voted Foreign Language

agreed, it will feel like more of a chore than a pleasure to enter something that nobody cares anywhere near as much about...I will enter of course but I'm completely indifferent about it thinking back to how little I cared about the last one...but this can change if I am introduced to some fantastic songs this time around

 

if there is still general disinterest after this one though, I think a line should be drawn under the spin-offs...:unsure:

Completely agree. I don't think it'll win the poll though...although there are a lot of ESC lovers on BJ, there are certainly lots of members who are not so keen too.

 

and nothing to say that all ESC lovers would go for that option anyway :P I don't want an ESC spin-off really, it would introduce me to nothing

Eurovision.

Not really bothered by any of them, only Eurovision would tempt me but all it does it limit the number of songs. It would be pretty obvious what be get picked straight away..I take it winners couldn't be entered though. Tbh I think a month's break would be nice from BJSC.
