Application
To apply, a jury must have 4 countries ready that they want to compete with and they must be listed in order of preference. Here's an example of a typical application:

Songs
Traditionally, in a non-themed season, SynthsVision will consist of 30 songs. A jury will receive a country he or she applied for and will then send a song from that country. There are a lot of rules to follow to make sure a song is eligible to compete:


 * 1) The chosen song must not exceed 50 million views.
 * 2) The chosen video must be shorter than 7 minutes.
 * 3) The chosen artist must have some relation to the country you have applied for.
 * 4) Covers are not allowed.
 * 5) There are no restrictions on what year the song was released.

Juries
Once picked, there are also a lot of rules the juries must follow:


 * 1) The juries must not reveal any of their votes or rankings.
 * 2) Random voting is not accepted.
 * 3) Juries cannot reveal their points, otherwise they will be immediately disqualified.
 * 4) Juries can pick any country as they wish, without any restrictions.
 * 5) Juries were not allowed to reveal their countries/songs. (this rule only applied in anonymous editions only.)

Voting
Once the final videos have been uploaded, the vote will then be opened. The time allowed to vote is usually 2 days. Any jury who does not vote within that allowed timeframe will be disqualified.

The voting system is the same as the one that is used in the Eurovision Song Contest. Juries will give 12 points to their favourite song, 10 points to their 2nd favourite, 8 points to their 3rd favourite etc, and they are not allowed to vote for themselves. Here's an example:
