it's no secret that you can't always get what you want in BJSC, but what songs were cruelly taken away from you either by someone getting in there first or the song being vetoed (or both )
Technically for me the answer is no, but I was planning on sending Emma Hewitt 'Colours' until I read a Hitstastic post about him trying to send it and being beaten to it - so I didn't try sending it. Not lying ok I could have had a BJSC winner. Veto free flaw free though |

Kyla La Grange's Cut Your Teeth and Seinabo Sey's Hard Time are my veto's
That's all I can remember, but I'm sure the mods have a list somewhere I also remember one of my entries being stolen but I can't remember |

Kylienips sent SomethingALaMode (feat. DWNTWN) - On My Mind about 20 minutes before me and came 6th with it, and then obviously the horror of having Vanic x Machineheart - Circles cruely ripped from my grasp by Florina.

i've been on the verge of veto twice, but have reconfirmed before it was official so NOPE.
those songs were: corona 'rhythm of the night (blonde version)' trust 'icabod' (did that for an hour and then just reconfirmed back cos i was drunk i think so) not had my entry stolen either actually! just a lot of shoulda woulda couldas (most painful is probs when me and chris always like the same things so either of us could've done well with it). although this month i have literally 'given' someone a song so that'll be interesting to watch (will not tell u hew tho!!!!) |

I've not had anything vetoed and the only entry someone else comfirmed before me was GEMS - 'Medusa' but that flopped anyway.
I was wanting to send Zhu feat Sean Dee - 'Faded' but Eyes had already sent 'Paradise Awaits' before I had the chance. That same contest, Robot had also initally sent a different Halsey song so I nearly couldn't have 'New Americana' either! |

Never been vetoed, although I should imagine a couple of my entries might have come close (though others may well have scored zero veto points!)
I rarely go for songs that anybody else wants (this month being an exception!) so don't often have an entry stolen. I was going to send Come With Me by Britt Love to BJSC 35 but Herzebania got there first (iirc very much stolen as we'd discussed the song prior to the contest). So I sent Chart Music's All My Life instead. Britt came 10th and Chart Music won #karmakarma |

Kyla La Grange - Walk Through Walls was the only time - stolen by Kylienips I believe (someone who I've had many BJSC crossovers with!). Genuinely could've got a top 10 and ended my awful DNQ record for that year if I was a bit faster I sent a song I didn't even like in place of it, which deservedly bombed.

I was also going to send Goldroom - Embrace but after I heard that Bal was after it I decided to let him have it. Then toyed with "Tsunami" that same contest!

Still veto-free after 30+ contests and as far as I can remember, not even close Having access to the veto points my 'cheapest' entries have been Zhu and Archis but neither were seriously discussed. (i.e. Rabbit, I have a feeling Faded would have been vetoed, or at least come very close as the points for Paradise Awaits were just Zhu's blog hype + double artist confirmation and Faded, the original, was charting in Australia at the time)
I think my only loss of my first choice where I actually tried to send it has been Smallpools - Dreaming, but hey, at least it gave Varake a hit. I also was going to send Emerentia - Wasting Water but I knew Ryan was also going for it and I was an hour late to confirmation so I didn't bother. Both of those contests I then proceeded to DNQ in flames. |

I've had entries stolen, I've been vetoed and one of my entries that made it through the veto lead to the framework being brought in.

Pretty sure I've never come close to being vetoed (apart from possibly with Joe Goddard's 'Gabriel' if the veto even existed then?)
The only time I've been blocked from sending a song is when I tried to change to 'Alchemy' at the last minute last month. And I'm glad that was blocked really because I'd have felt super cheap even if it would have got me another big hit ~ |

This month was the first time anyone beat me to an entry but I would hardly call it stolen. I've been vetoed once but it served me right!

Oh dear oops I believe someone wanted Somethingalamode - On My Mind I think I've had one track vetoed Phoenix - Entertainment |

A San Zhi vs The Shoes remix of Gunshot last month, which I'm still certain would've won, and not because it had the same vocals as a song a few people like at the moment.

I tried to send Reset by Lucie Silvas in 43, my first contest, but found it had already been taken. Managed to avoid a semi last-placer in my first contest, not bad going, even if the song deserved way more.
Only been vetoed once, with Running Guns by Alyssa Reid in 53, and then resent it the next contest where there was no veto |

Never been vetoed but someone else got to GRADES this month. VERITÉ was also bagged before I had chance.
I guess I must just follow the same sites as others as pretty much 10 of my potentials are in this contest alone. This post has been edited by مدهش*: 2nd November 2014, 04:08 PM |
