Alright so I'm gonna go over some of the rules of voting before we start.

-Each vote form will have a mandatory space to fill out your Wikia username. This is to ensure that each person only gets one vote form. Any vote form with an unrecognizable username / repeated username / no username does NOT get counted

-Everyone is expected to watch every video fully. While I have no specific way to police this, if you are caught by any means not watching the videos you will be banned from voting

-If you use someone else's username to get extra votes and you are caught you will also be banned from voting.

-This is not a rule, but it is highly preferred to be somewhat harsh with your critiques. Giving every act 10 votes is an easy way to get ties so only give an act a perfect 10 if you genuinely thought they were perfect (7-9 if you really liked them, 4-6 if you thought they were ok, etc.). You could theoretically give every act a 10 but it definitely makes things more difficult.

-All the banning rules apply to main judges as well. While no judge would be kicked off the panel for not following rules, they would be prohibited from voting. If there is a repeat offense somehow then being kicked off the panel is a considered punishment (but this should never happen, so I'm just laying it out there).

-Everyone keep in mind this is a FANTASY season for FUN. Breaking the voting rules just makes things more painful for everyone involved and I really do want to keep the vote open to everyone on this website. Thanks for reading all this, and the semifinals will hopefully start either before or during this weekend.
