NFs are potentially my favourite part of NSC! I love voting in other people's NFs because i get to discover way more songs than i would otherwise, a lot of which are better than the ones that are actually sent

I also love hosting my own NFs, because it's a chance to host your own little show and to share more of your music with people in a single edition
It's also a good way to help you to decide which song to send if you're an indecisive type of person. I had hardly any ideas for songs to send when i first joined NSC, but i have accumulated loads over the years, so i can easily afford to host NFs. There's no way i would ever be able to show everyone all the songs i want to send otherwise, even if we got to the 500th edition xD
NFs usually get 10-20 voters, and since each edition of NSC has 50-60 participants usually, this doesn't really make too much difference to what place you get in my opinion
On another note, congratulations to all qualifiers! I didn't hold out too much hope for Halito, but i never assumed i wouldn't qualify since i love the song and there's no reason for others not to

We'll send something more mainstream next edition (not too much so though hehe), so watch out for our NF
