    Still not a nation. I think it’s against more than one rule. It being allowed to bypass the language requirement also makes it easier to win since most of the Lemmy users appear to be English speakers, so voting for a song you can understand without the need to translate is a given.

    Gaming soundtracks should have their own contest, with all the relevant communities informed so that they can propose and vote.

      There is other English language songs in the contest, so if I follow that logic, we should ban them too.

      This is a contest for fun, and the first one to boot. If there is an overwhelming victory for the gaming song, maybe the organizer will consider putting more strict rules next time, but for now, let people have their fun.

        If that were my only argument, then sure. And there are even more factors at play than I mentioned, like the fact that Lemmy’s biggest community is Technology, meaning that there is the added advantage of that for a gaming-related topic.

        If this is merely for fun, why associate with Eurovision at all? Why have any voting? Just have a sub for highlighting music.

        Edit: And there are communities that do just that.

          I wouldn’t mind an annual community song contest. That could be fun! But this is not it (or imo it should not be)

          So, did Cassette Beasts win by a landslide ?

            The real question should be whether those votes added to another song could have changed its position. If so, its presence was detrimental to every other participant.

      You seem to be very involved in a fun contest without any real reward except virtual glory for the winning song
