Ah! So many entries! Thanks! 
So... about  USA's entry: β¨π REALLY wanted to send a Christmas song, so I let him. Honestly, I forgot about the Oct-Nov release rule because he was so insistent on submitting a decent Christmas song this edition. It won't happen again. :/ Besides, Slumber Party is still eligible next edition, so he MAY send it again.  EDIT: It's not the first time the USA tries to send a song relevant to the month. See their August Olympics-inspired entry. |

SLOGAN - OPEN YOUR MIND
"I wanted to mess with a purple and brown color combo. The speech bubble shape of the edition's official logo is associated with communication, which is a key factor in the appreciation of not only music but in life as well."

I hope they're not too bad. Some of the group acts' pictures have one of the members hidden. 
Also, I'm suprised I found a nice group picture of the USA's act even though their song has only been out for 24 hours.

RUNNING ORDER
ERROR: There is no "Rest of the World" vote. I was probably thinking about replacement votes when I typed that. I'm such a flop. Sorry.
Other than that, it seems self-explanatory. 
What do you think of your position?
CLICK HERE for the PLAYLIST of ALL ENTRIES.
SEMI-FINALS recaps will be posted tomorrow.
THE VOTING PERIOD BEGINS BY THEN.
