Not sure if I ever heard of yours tbh. I've never heard of yours either. As if that were difficult.

Confirmations are finally closed! Thank you very much to everyone who showed interest to participate in this edition!
We have a total of 46 participants. 10 other participants decided to skip this edition.So what's next?
The first phase of this edition is the 'Group Stage'
This is how it will work: there will be an allocation draw that will define which countries will be in each one of the 11 participating groups of this stage, each group will have a total of 4 countries and they'll go from letters A to K.
After that, two recaps will be published: one with groups from A to F and the other one with groups from G to K. This is how it will look like:Small correction: Group K will have 3 participants only, 2 of them will qualify too.
Those in groups A to F will have to vote in the first recap and those from groups G to K will vote in the second recap, look at this like if these were the semi-finals where you vote only in the one you participate in, while voting in the other is optional. However, you can't vote in your own group.
So for example, if you are in group C, you have to vote for your favorite two songs from groups A, B, D, E and F. If you are in group J, you have to vote in groups G, H, I and K.
How will the voting system work? Everyone will have to send me their favorite and second favorite song from each group. Each ''favorite'' counts as 2 points, while a second favorite gives the country 1 point.
The two countries with the highest amount of points in each group will qualify to the next stage. What if there's a tie? In that case, everyone involved in the tie will pass to the next phase, so that we can get more participants in the Grand Final.
There will be only 3 automatic qualifiers: Scotland being the host, Vaggelis and ᴛᴏᴍ ᴋʟᴏsᴇʀ who suggested the two themes selected for this edition (being AQ was the prize for suggesting the winning theme). This way, the Grand Final will have at least 14 participants, in case there's not a single tie.
Maybe this is a little hard to understand right now, but we'll go step by step and I'll make sure to give you the clearest possible instructions of what you should do next. If anyone has trouble understanding it, I won't have any problem with explaining it over and over again in different ways until it's clear. For now, it's just waiting. Later today I will publish the allocation draw, so by then you'll know in which group you'll participate in and in which recap you'll vote in.
But don't expect a normal allocation draw thread, like the ones I make in any edition. This is a very special edition, so I've been working on a small ''surprise'' for the allocation draw post. You'll see it later today, but let's just say it tries to resemble the FIFA World Cup allocation draw

I actually find it quite understandable so far. And I'm actually excited that we can't vote in our own group.
