Good evening everyone
After a chat on Saturday and an attempt to start another contest, Matt discussed with me and decided to open up a new song contest - Our Gala. It may not be huge starting off but at least, it'll be more successful than Matt's previous song contests. I myself host WVSC and nothing is going to change with that, I'm more than obliged to my own contest, but in fact, me and Matt talked about hosting a contest together back in 2014.
So you see that the Canadian flag is in the logo, so that means that this contest is worldwide countries and not just European. The first edition will be held in Vancouver, Canada.
Rules:
-You select a country, and you must stay with that country for 5 editions; unlike other contests where it's only 3.
-Every artist must come from the country you select; but the song has to be released after 2000.
-Covers are not allowed.
-The song cannot be overused. This is to promote originality and to give a fair chance.
There is no borrowing in the contest. If you want to take part for a micronation around the world, you can, but remember, the artist must be from that country. So, for example, if you wanted to take San Marino, the artist must be Sammarinese and not Italian. That goes for example like Andorra, Luxembourg, Liechtenstein & Monaco; plus the Pacific islands. The Vatican City cannot participate.
Faroe Islands and Greenland are allowed to participate under the condition that they send their own artists. Danish artists are not allowed to represent them.
Overseas dependencies and territories (like the British islands in the Caribbean, US, French, Australian and New Zealandic islands in the Pacific.) cannot participate! This is to prevent the overflow of songs from those countries in an edition.
The United Kingdom will take part as a whole, but of course, Northern Irish, Scottish and Welsh singers can participate for the UK along side English singers, of course.
It may sound a bit harsh with some of these rules, but it's strict. We don't want the contest to be flooded with overseas territories; it'd be too easy then to send more than one song from example the UK in one edition.
