Hello and welcome to BJFestivalen 2015's Andra Chansen, the second stage of BJFestivalen hosted here in Daehun's rural city of Golee. Here presented below are a list of songs which will duel out to fight for a final position in the BJFestivalen final, split into two groups. One song from the 6 duels will proceed forth to battle the opposing round duel winners leaving three songs qualifying through.

The following rules + deadline are as stated below:

-Do NOT vote for the song in which you're competing in. If your nation is presented below, then it is compulsory for you to vote or 6 points will be deducted from your overall score.
-May I encourage EVERYONE to vote as this stage of the contest is open for any participants to vote!
-You may not discuss who you pointed for whether it'd be via methods on this forum, or outside.
-All votes needs to be submitted to Oricon and no other!
-Deadline is Tuesday 9th June 2015 23:59 GMT BST.

Vote in the following format:

03 Points // Favourite song from the round
02 Points // Second favourite song from the round
01 Point // Third favourite song from the round


The rounds are below:


ROUND 1

Botanikka: Era Istrefi - Njo Si Ti vs. Bignia-Zaragovina: Ambition17 - Singel

Republic of Adonia : Daya - Hide Away vs. D'yermak'er: Viktoria Modesta - Prototype


ROUND 2

Ethanola: M-22 - Some Time vs. Taahino: We Are The In Crowd - The Best Thing (That Never Happened)

Federal Republic of Ashton: Kid Sister - Big N Bad vs. FSR Rontvia: Nádine - Juvenile


ROUND 3

Hendinia: Erik Rapp - Wild (Buzz Robot Radio Edit) vs. Mulgracia: Cosmic Gate & Emma Hewitt - Going Home

Aeroche: Kane Vale - Pure Harm vs. Land of DW: Wallpaper - #STUPiDFACEDD


To further prevent accusations of fix, the split of the duels during the results are as follows:

-Winner of the first set in ROUND 1 vs. Winner of the first set in ROUND 2
-Winner of the second set in ROUND 1 vs. Winner of the first set in ROUND 3
-Winner of the second set in ROUND 2 vs. Winner of the second set in ROUND 3

Pitting FSR Ashvia against each other is just cruel.

Totally firing you tbh.

I thought there was supposed to be some kind of jury thingy

At least that's what I saw when I researched last year's contest

EDIT: I think you have the second set of Round 2 mentioned twice Yu

lol, same here
So, in Round 3 I will need to give points to all the songs (as I can't vote for myself), right? Or do we even need to vote in our own rounds?
As I'm battling against Aeroche, I should give them the least points possible (1) (and vice versa) as I'm not going to vote against myself.
Yeah, sorry, really confused.

You vote by round, not by dual. There are four songs per round, so you have to vote for three of them. The duals in each round are purely there to weed out half the songs, so only one song per dual can go through. In round one you can vote for both Botanikka and Bignia-Zaragovina if you wish, but only the song with the most points in that dual will qualify to the final.

So Frank, you must vote for Lew in that round (and he must vote for you as well), but for all other rounds there will be a song that you can't vote for.

Hope that makes it somewhat more clear! biggrin.gif

Yeah if we're doing it the same, votes from nations without a song in Andra Chansen will be combined and adjusted up or down (depending on how many we get) so that they make up 50% of the vote.

Even I'm confused but I'm down to do the results and I did them last year too so everything should be alright in the end cheer.gif

Argh, the three best entries in AC are in the same round (that is with unfamiliarity of several other songs so that may not hold up after I've listened through). I'll definitely be voting though.

I pointed out how confusing this voting system was last year and clearly no one listened xo

I see there has been a SLIGHT CHANGE which justifies the 'duels' a little bit more (but now means a song isn't guaranteed to get through even if it gets the most points in its group, lol). But winning a duel still means nothing unless you've also beat the winner of the other duel you're drawn against. It'd make sense if there was actually another voting round like in the real MF but there isn't so it's just needlessly confusing. But that's just me ~

Well if other people are getting confused with the vote system then I probably will too laugh.gif

I'm just going to PM what I think is right and if it isn't (don't hold your breath) then I can correct it wink.gif

But how will the SET winners get compared? They are only voted for within their ROUND.

it's all a bit like hey a round of oranges selects the best orange, a round of apples selects the best apple. now it's the best orange v the best apple but only using the scores they got from their perspective rounds.

Or it'd be like Christer transferring votes each song got from MF Heats to AC without any voting.

I think I see where you're coming from and it's very valid. Which is why last year it was 'Winner of the first set in ROUND 1 vs. Winner of the second set in ROUND 1', so I'll probably end up scrapping the bottom of Yu's post or something (particularly if it benefits me happy.gif I kid).

Although that will remove all of the 'justification' and make Braydhen unhappy again.

Just to make sure I've picked this up right, we vote for three songs per round so there's only one song not receiving points per round? unsure.gif What about the round your own country is in, do you not vote in that?
