    [Game] 172ND FSC (SEP. 2021 ) - Pretoria, South Africa (RESULTS)

    Let's head up to Pretoria!

    Just a couple months ago, South Africa had only hosted the FSC twice in history and since then, they have doubled that total, thanks to an incredible back-to-back performance from Mainshow, who blessed us with this winning song:

    The Parlotones - Push Me To The Floor


    OK, everyone, we are doing this low budget this time, so everyone load up into the bus and say goodbye to the seashore of Durban as we take a seven hour drive up to Pretoria. It's not far from fellow capital, Johannesburg. Fellow capital? Well, yes, South Africa has three of them, and Pretoria is the executive capital of the country.

    Pretoria is sometimes known as the Jacaranda City for the copious purple blooms that color the town. Unfortunately, we're about a month too early to see them as we are just wrapping up winter down here and they won't show up for another month. Since we aren't quite here for spring, what is there to see here? Well there is a nice wildlife preserve if you have a hankering to see wildebeest and zebra or ride horseback. And there's also a meteor crater which is also surrounded by wildlife, particularly birds and plants, as it's a wetland area.












    RULES

    01. This is a monthly contest, modeled after Eurovision. You need to have at least 10 posts to your credit to take part.
    02. You can pick any country in the world.
    03. The artist you choose has either to be a citizen of the country they'll represent or to have been born there. At least HALF of the people from your act must be from the country you choose.
    04. Your song must be under 10 years old. Eligible entries must have been released after January 1st, 2011.
    05. Eurovision entries are not allowed. Songs from concurrent Eurovision heats are not allowed either.
    06. The song cannot have been a UK/US Top 40 hit, as it would give it an unfair advantage.
    07. The song can be a remix.
    08. The song cannot be a cover version.
    09. If your song features a sample, please state it early enough, so the other contestants can decide whether it is acceptable or not by poll.
    10. You cannot vote for your own country.
    11. Discussion about one's favourites during the contest is NOT ALLOWED, as it has the potential to influence the voting.
    12. PLEASE try and choose a song not everyone would know, the point is to discover new artists.
    13. If a song becomes or is found to be ineligible at any time before the voting is over, it will be disqualified.
    14. Make sure you understand all the rules before you take part. You will need to devote about 2 hours of your time to this game to listen to all the entries at least once. Do a little research on your entry before you present it, be sure that it doesn't violate any rules, and check here to see if it has taken part before.

                                  Make sure you check out the OP in the FSC History thread to ensure your song hasn’t been entered before.
