Yes. It would've been too complicated to do the Sanremo style in the long run.

The video is being edited, and will be ready for tomorrow, surprisingly.

[Josiah.]

Since doing this sooner rather than later seems like the thing to do... Welcome back to Pittsburgh ladies and gents!

————————————————————————————————————————————— ————

Just as stated at the video, you can vote by sending me a private message. You must send in 2 sets of 1-8, 10, and 12 points (one for jury voting, one for televoting). You cannot under any circumstance vote for your own country. Please have some differences between your two sets of votes. If you are participating with more than one country, please send all votes in one PM, and please have some differences between your sets of votes. If you do not vote, your votes will be replaced by aggregated results.

Voting closes at 6:00pm GMT/1:00pm EDT next Thursday.

Good luck to all and...

TiBB, START VOTING NOW!

[Josiah.]

And next Friday, when we get to results, I will be doing something different for the TiBB Music Festival: something I planned on doing last edition. I will go country by country for the jury voting (which means that the revealing of the jury points will take longer than normal). Televoting points will still be revealed in the way they have been.

[Josiah.]

I have received the votes from myself and Calderyon.

[Josiah.]

This is a voting reminder for the ones who haven't voted.

[Josiah.]

Less than 25 hours left to vote.

[Josiah.]

Less than 2 hours left to vote.

[Josiah.]

Voting is now closed! The votes of Barry's countries and Liam's countries will be aggregated results. The full results will be revealed tomorrow; along with a rule change for the ninth edition.

[Josiah.]

We will be having the full show (recap, interval, and results) in a special CyTube room at 8pm; with the results separately being posted here! See you there!

[Josiah.]

I present to you the winner!

Congratulations South Korea on winning for the first time!

The full results are on the edition's official wikia page.

Now, in other news, we have two big changes to the rules (one of them noted in the video): Relegation and Annual Contests.

From the 9th edition onward, the bottom 5 of the previous edition will be ineligible for selection. This means that these countries will not be listed in the OP for said edition.

Also from the 9th edition onward, we will have 1 contest a year every April; with the Christmas editions happening every December.

[Josiah.]

This means that...

China, Denmark, France, Germany, and Italy cannot be selected as countries next edition.

Also, here are winner stats so far:

Number of Wins
• Australia - 1 win (Ed. 1)
• Serbia - 1 win (Ed. 2)
• Norway - 1 win (Ed. 3)
• United Kingdom - 1 win (Ed. 4)
• Italy - 1 win (Ed. 5)
• Denmark - 1 win (Ed. 6)
• United States - 1 win (Ed. 7)
• South Korea - 1 win (Ed. 8)
---
• Puerto Rico - 1 win (Xmas 1)

[Calderyon]

Very pleased.
