Hmm that is a hard one to answer to ![xD](http://i.imgur.com/1QnpWgV.png) I'm not sure actually tbh it may just be acceptable ok, Jamaica will be in #13 edition ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png)

My opinion, no borrowing for any nation but yes for autonomic regions. I have to say I don't like the borrowing rule at all. I would love to see those microstate or automatic regions to enter the contest, and see songs actually from those country to experience different culture of the music, not give United Kingdom/Sweden/China... second chance to enter the final. You might think we can't find a great artist from microstates, then don't confirm with them. Or we just open the United Kingdom up to let four users confirm with (UK1, UK2, UK3 and UK4) because what we do now is in the same way.

To be honest i would personally want to se no borrowing nation allowed with a unified ![](https://i.imgur.com/mA5N5oW.png) United Kingdom. ![:))](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/cheesy.png) To me it would bring something completely new and it would be kind of a fresh start. Autonome regions however are ok to me. ![:)](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/smiley.png)

Okay so I wanna say something too. As you may know I have ![](http://i.imgur.com/g5f1vK9.png) . "No borrowing for any nation + no autonome regions" = I wouldn't take part anymore, since I don't get why other autonome regions should be eliminated mainly because of the discussion going on about ![](http://i.imgur.com/NU3mKGd.png) "Unification of United Kingdom" = The idea I completely support, since I don't like the splitted ![](http://i.imgur.com/8q0aiRb.png) anyways. "Restricted borrowing" = Not as good as it sounds at first. For example: I found an amazing song from ![](http://i.imgur.com/Lu8GajH.png) . The host of Sweden doesn't know this song but loves it as he listens to it. He could then easily say "Ah no I wanted to send this song, so sorry, no borrowing for you" ... therefore the borrowing countries could be kinda discriminated by the countries they want borrow from. And (that mainly belongs to me) since some users ( ![](https://i.imgur.com/dyWooq3.png) ) aren't on the forum but on Facebook there could be no direct communication between us.

I guess that's a point many users don't think about That's why I also think only users directly evolved into this should be allowed to vote ... because honestly what does the HoD of ![](https://i.imgur.com/1UaHN6p.png) (you get what I mean hopefully) has to do with this decision?

Okay so the first thing i can announce is that i can let the autonome regions take part ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png) So just forget that "no autonome regions" part there ![:3](http://i.imgur.com/DQAYsyT.png) Quite positive reactions to them tbh and i expected no less actually ![^_^](http://i.imgur.com/bgyzjMI.png) It has always been part of FoIM that we have nations like ![](https://i.imgur.com/JXZuTGe.png) take part and that is one i would personally like to keep. So that is the first announcement here made ![:3](http://i.imgur.com/DQAYsyT.png) Hope it's okay

Hmm also now comes the tricky part ![:o](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/shocked.png) I think i will wait for some time yet ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png) haha. i wanna make a choice with which most of the participants atleast would be happy Also i have a separate suggestion for something like this: 1: Autonome regions will continue to take part 2: ![](http://i.imgur.com/8q0aiRb.png) United Kingdom will be unified starting from FoIM #13 Then the trickiest part is the borrowing rule thing 3: Borrowing rules to stay the same with countries like ![](http://i.imgur.com/g5f1vK9.png) (or changed to only ![](http://i.imgur.com/Lu8GajH.png) or ![](http://i.imgur.com/GYtAXmM.png) mostly depending on your thoughts), ![](http://i.imgur.com/6AWjwWs.png) (Only borrowing from ![](https://i.imgur.com/SP2Rdfx.png) or ![](https://i.imgur.com/k2earfL.png) specific states only or with no borrowing at all), ![](http://i.imgur.com/8pl3h6m.png) (only borrowing from ![](http://i.imgur.com/gVKwPqL.png) specific parts), ![](http://i.imgur.com/Q5sPPbM.png) (stays the same), ![](http://i.imgur.com/yYcltOD.png) (borrowing from ![](http://i.imgur.com/iLqCurK.png) allowed), ![](http://i.imgur.com/5AltLPQ.png) (stays the same), ![](http://i.imgur.com/Md1hbwj.png) (stays the same), ![](http://i.imgur.com/MAh7rJw.png) (will not be able to borrow from anyone anymore), ![](http://i.imgur.com/SEjqOl2.png) US Virgin Islands (only specific states from the eastern or western coast, 3 or 4 states max.) & ![](http://i.imgur.com/WnEPAp9.png) (stays the same) or 4: Go with no borrowing for anyone (OR your suggested ones) I'm in trouble deciding which is the most fairest way to go for everyone ![:D](//storage.proboards.com/forum/images/smiley/grin.png) so i will ask you. It would feel right for allowing smallest nations with not too much singers to borrow with restricted borrowing thing or something but then again there is again that point what is mention several times that every country (even the smallest ones + autonomes) have their own original singers which also would feel fine Thoughts? ![^_^](http://i.imgur.com/bgyzjMI.png) If this gets support from most people then we will go with these from FoIM #13 onwards! ![:3](http://i.imgur.com/DQAYsyT.png) Otherwise i will follow the poll
