RULES
due to the structure of barryvision, once you enter any edition, you will be required to submit all songs/votes by the deadline.

there will be no exceptions. failure to submit on time will result in disqualification.

your eligibility to enter in another edition of barryvision may also be affected if this is a repeated problem.

all final decisions on placement, song choice, etc., are made by ry.

please ensure the above is clear before committing to any edition.

+

deadlines may be extended according to ry's schedule and they will inform you as early as possible if that is the case.

the theme rules are a guideline - the official rules will be posted on the scheduled day for that edition's announcement. basically rules are subject to change.

the general schedule is:
theme announcement 2 days in advance
3 days for country/etc selection
2 days to finalize song submissions
5 days for voting
next theme announcement
results posted 1 day after voting deadline

in the best case scenario, it should be possible to finish all planned editions of barryvision within summer 2020 - however, due to life, some later editions might be cancelled or rescheduled.

for any other questions, dm ry!
