Hi,

The time has come again to register which countries you'd like to host as part of Country Nights 2013

The countries are listed below. Any country not in black has been taken. The list might not always be up to date so please read through all replies before picking a country. They're allocated on a first come first served basis.

Like last year, we will split the registration process in two. In the first part you can pick up to 6 nights that you'd like to host. In the second phase you will be allocated dates. You are free to trade nights and dates until the list becomes finalised at the start of March.

For those who are new, it's our tradition for 4 years that in the runup to the Eurovision Song Contest we dedicate one day to each of the countries with music from that country and a quiz in the chat room.

Remember it's first come first served and don't pick more than 6 countries!
