It was difficult to nail down exactly when the anger started. Remembering a time when it wasn't there, coiled up and waiting to strike or alive and thrashing, was growing more and more challenging. It'd been with her for so long that it no longer felt like an intruder in her mind. It felt like a part of her.

Gather round the tree cuz it's time for our first recipients to open their gifts! There will be two rounds this time, one of twelve and one of thirteen. In no particular order we have:

Emprexx Plush
Blizzardeyedwonder
DMBoogie
Fenris
Jilly
Ruggahissy
TLOA
Yugikun
Maraoone
Jace
Murderweasel
Laurels

and our round 1 songs, also in no particular order:

1. Dance Of The Seven Veils - Liz Phair (For Maraoone)

2. Captain Ward - Tempest (For Kilmarnock)

3. Mother - Danzig (For Ohm)

4. 中庭の少女たち - SHISHAMO (For Jilly)

5. Wild Side - Ali (For Endellion)

6. Cult Of Dionysus - The Orion Experience (For Shiola)

7. Voices In The Dark - Ramirez (For Emprexx Plush)

8. Ghost - Nakala (For Somersault)

9. Play Destroy - Poppy ft. Grimes (For Brackie)

10. One More Day - Lydia (For Yugikun)

11. The Rush - JJ Wilde (For Deamon)

12. FAKE!FAKE!FAKE! - Fake Type (For Fenris)


Sing along if you know the words: Everyone involved in this round MUST vote or be eliminated. Your vote can be sent by board PM or discord, either is fine by me. you cannot vote for your own song. Public Votes(votes if you aren't in this round or in the contest at all) will be counted at half points.

IMPORTANT REMINDER FOR THIS CONTEST: If you like the song picked for you, send me a PM endorsing it! Endorsed songs get their highest received score doubled, e.g. if it receives a 12 then its endorsement bonus will be a 12, if its highest received score is a five then its endorsement bonus will be 5, etc. etc.. Endorsements in the semi-finals will carry over into the finals. If we get to the finals and your song has grown on you, feel free to endorse it then if you haven't already. If you want it to get points this round though, you must endorse it before the round ends.


Endorsements and Votes are due by 11 PM EST 4/22/2020.

No extensions will be granted barring extenuating circumstances. I'll be giving regular reminders in chat and in this thread.

For our newcomers and those that need a refresher, voting is by Eurovision rules. you'll be sending your top 10 songs in as follows:

12- Song Name
10- Song Name
8- ...
7- ...
6- ...
5- ...
4- ...
3- ...
2- ...
1- ...

with 12 being your favorite song, 10 being your second favorite, and so on. Good luck!
