GSC: RULES

[Kerem]

The official rules of Galaxy Song Contest:

Broadcaster & Countries:

You can take any free countries to be the HoD of it. You need to choose a broadcaster, you can create one or you can choose one by yourself. If a HoD isn't active since 1 month, this HoD will be automatically disqualified and the country will be free to choose by an another user. You can confirm your broadcaster with the country here. If a user don't reveal its decision whether to participate at that edition or not it will be automatically disqualified. The same thing will happen if the HoD confirm its participation but don't reveal its entry until the deadline.

Selections:

You have two methods of selecting your entry:

1. Internal selection:

With an internal selection you choose your entry by your broadcaster. You can decide which artist will represent your country with which song. Of course, you also can select the artist/band internally and the song with a national selection.

2. National selection:

In a national selection you choose the number of songs that participate in your selection. You can also choose the format (voting, design etc.) by yourself. You have to do a recap for your national selection otherwise it will be cancelled by the GBU council. A results video is not needed. You have to create a thread for the recap and for the results. Of course you can do more, for example for the announcement of your songs. For the results thread, you have to put the scoreboard of the voters to check the reality of the results.

The artists which you choose have to be from that country. If a singer has decents from its parents you can take that artist too. (For example: A singer is from Germany but it has roots to Switzerland because of the parents then you can take the artist. If a singer has roots from its grandparents, cousins etc. then you cannot take the artist.)

Foreign artists:

- If you select a foreign artist by an internal selection you have to tell it to the GBU council before revealing your entry officially in the confirmation thread! If you already revealed it in the thread then your entry will be automatically disqualified.

- If you select a foreign artist in your national selection then you also have to tell it to the GBU council before revealing the songs in your national selection thread. If you already revealed it in the thread then these songs cannot participate in your national selection in that edition anymore. You can't choose more then one foreign act!

After you told the GBU council about the foreign act, you'll get an answer asap whether you can take it or not.

Borrowing countries:

Below you see a table with countries that can borrow entries from the another one without asking the GBU council:

Andorra can borrow from Spain
Greenland can borrow from Denmark
Liechtenstein can borrow from Germany
Luxembourg can borrow from Belgium and France
Monaco can borrow from France
San Marino can borrow from Italy

For example: Andorra can take Ruth Lorenzo without asking the GBU council.
Andorra cannot take Loreen without asking the GBU council.

Voting:

The voting is in the usual Eurovision style:

You give to your lowest and to your highest favourite. You have to send your votes via PM. You aren't allowed to reveal your votes in any recap threads! If a user won't vote then the votes will be replaced and the HoD will be disqualified from that edition. If there will be any cheating or smiliar things then the HoD will be disqualified forever.

Until the GBU allows it, yes We will look carefully at the singer. Shakira cannot take part for Germany for sure if you know what I mean
