Posted October 11, 201212 yr http://i1186.photobucket.com/albums/z369/RC741/BJSC%2049/SEMILOGO_zpsd1e233e3.png Welcome to the semi final stage of BJSC XLIX here in Cherry Tree City, Ramrynia! As there are 45 participating countries, the winner from the last contest, Aeroche, will automatically qualify to the final in order to keep the amount of countries in each semi final even. Therefore, each semi final will contain 22 countries. 14 countries will qualify from each semi final, meaning that there will be 29 countries in the final. Voting You only vote for the countries in your semi final, and you cannot vote for yourself. You need to choose your favourite 10 songs from your semi final and award points as follows: 12 – your favourite song 10 08 07 06 05 04 03 02 01 – your 10th favourite song The automatic qualifier Aeroche will vote in both semi finals. Once again, please only vote for the countries in your semi final. In order to submit your votes, you must PM me using a format similar to the one above. You must submit your votes by Wednesday 17th October at 7pm (UK time). Any votes submitted after this deadline will not be counted and if you do not vote in time, you will have 33% deducted from your semi final score. This could cost you a place in the final. Of course, if you are not in the contest, please do not vote. Once you have voted, your country name will turn from red to green on the semi final line-ups below.

October 11, 201212 yr There definitely IS something to vote for, I'll have a hard time voting in my semi! And I see some killer names in semi 1 (from what I haven't heard now) so it'll bring me even more pleasant options for the votes.
October 11, 201212 yr I came close to entering 'Samantha Jade - Secret' three years ago when it was new, glad someone actually entered it!
October 11, 201212 yr 'Lyckligare Nu' is my second entry in Swedish this year. I remember I wanted to send it when I saw it on 'Ållsang på Skansen' this summer. I'm glad I found it again because I really love this song :D
October 12, 201212 yr How one earth did Isconia > Jake Bugg – Lightning Bolt not get veto'd? Yes it may have missed the top 40 recently but it was actually released as a single a couple of months ago and had decent airplay/hype. Edited October 12, 201212 yr by LeeWallaceee
October 12, 201212 yr such a controversial set of tracks!!! i don't know if i'm gonna like this set or not but i shall be getting to know them all so LET'S GET TO IT
October 12, 201212 yr Are Aeroche gonna make it 4/4?!?! I'm always reluctant to call 'surefire top 10' but I really don't see how Alpines won't make it.
October 12, 201212 yr I think they definitely have a shot at winning, though I think it would have been more surefire w/ Tidal Wave. Still...top 5 for sure I think
October 12, 201212 yr Is there a reason why we have less than a week to vote in? Only saying this as we don't even have song packs yet.
October 12, 201212 yr Author MP3 packs will be posted this afternoon! It's difficult to get them sorted until the final songlist is cleared which was only yesterday evening. 6 days seems normal enough to me, I'll need that final day to be able to get everything ready for the results an the final thread.
October 12, 201212 yr MP3 packs will be posted this afternoon! It's difficult to get them sorted until the final songlist is cleared which was only yesterday evening. Except it's kind of not? :D Why not download all the songs that were confirmed before the list is cleared and then delete/replace all the vetoes and shit? Then it's only a matter of uploading. I swear they keep making up invalid excuses for not doing this (very serious) shit properly :angry:
October 12, 201212 yr Pavel is being a fanny comme d'habitude. :D Totes DNQing this month. I was so close to not participating due to having no inspiration AT ALL. :(
October 12, 201212 yr 6 days is MORE THAN ENOUGH. The deadline could be December 2015 and people still wouldn't vote til the last day.
October 12, 201212 yr I have also voted, 9 songs I LOVED in my semi (4 of which I had considered as possibles myself) and 5 I quite liked so all in all a good semi.
October 12, 201212 yr Author The MP3 packs can now be accessed through the original post! I hope they work!
October 12, 201212 yr I wouldn't even make MP3 packs if I hosted - they're only as important as a recap imo, just an add-on, wouldn't even know how to make them anyway.
