Posted March 8, 200916 yr Well, I did this for XII, but with all the organisation for XIII forgot :o Anyway, 'tis resurrected for XIV. The good/bad night for the contest will be far more intriguingz this time I reckon :drama: How you think your entry will do: What you think the biggest shock of the night/s will be: Most surprising flop (and where roughly): Most surprising dark horse (and where roughly): Will it be a good or bad night/s for the contest?: Who will win?: GOBABYGOBABYGO
March 8, 200916 yr How you think your entry will do: I think mid-table, but people predicting top 10 is a good sign I think. (though RBW XII springs to mind D:) What you think the biggest shock of the night/s will be: FNT Nickodonia making the final. I don't know actually, maybe the winner for once. I don't think there's an obvious winner but a lot of potential songs that could do well. Most surprising flop (and where roughly): Maybe MKL, I predicted good things for them this month but it's not had much vocal support for it. It's one of those that will either go top or bottom ten. (watch it finish about 15th now) Most surprising dark horse (and where roughly): Maybe Rivandia or Numayania. M83 is a bit like a less extreme Camille in that it's a bit love/hate. Alcazar might be more popular than I initially thought too. Top 15 or unexpected top 10 may not be off the cards. Will it be a good or bad night/s for the contest?: Probably bad. In that (imo) most of the best songs are those with the most pre-contest publicity and I can't see many of them flopping. Who will win?: FNT Nickdonia or Scherzland.

March 8, 200916 yr How you think your entry will do: LOL What you think the biggest shock of the night/s will be: Rivandia finishing mid-table after being predicted bottom 5 in alot of predictions :o Most surprising flop (and where roughly): Not sure... I don't think anyone's going to flop who aren't expected too... Most surprising dark horse (and where roughly): Rivandia: M83 - Car! Chase! Terror! around 14-16 Will it be a good or bad night/s for the contest?: If the Anti-Cheapists keep it zipped, then I will be enjoying it :P Who will win?: It's between about 6 or 7 countries for me, but I'm going to say either Mdice: Lady Sovereign - So Human or FNT Nickodonia: Velvet - Take My Body Close
March 8, 200916 yr Author How you think your entry will do: Well :o Top ten for Saint Etienne I hope from the amount of support I've seen; although I'd be happy with a non-flop I'm aiming for lower top ten ;o What you think the biggest shock of the night/s will be: Taylor Swift overcoming the cheapness to finish top 10 Most surprising flop (and where roughly): Amarula Tree and Don't Upset The Rhythm will finish a lot lower than they've been predicted IMO - low top 20 I think :( I also have a sneaky suspicion that MKL could miss out on my prediction of 2nd place... Most surprising dark horse (and where roughly): Marie Mai will only just miss out on a top 10 :o M83 could do it but I haven't seen massive amounts of support for it a la Camille... Will it be a good or bad night/s for the contest?: Good night/s hopefully! As long as we don't have the top 10 too dominated by cheapness I'll be happy... Who will win?: FNT Nickodonia - god knows they deserve it! :heehee: MKL and Scherzland could come close...
March 8, 200916 yr How you think your entry will do: LOLLOLLOLLOL What you think the biggest shock of the night/s will be: Rivandia Most surprising flop (and where roughly): Um i dunno Most surprising dark horse (and where roughly): M83 as stated above. Like 11th :o Will it be a good or bad night/s for the contest?: Baaaad imo coz i weren't in it! Who will win?: Mdice
March 8, 200916 yr Finally, one I can sort of do! :cheer: How you think your entry will do: Not fantastic, but not awful. I would be happy with top 20, ecstatic with top 15. Run down the street naked with top 10. What you think the biggest shock of the night/s will be: Taylor Swift flopping totally (I just don't see it somehow) Most surprising flop (and where roughly): As above. Like, 16th. Sorry Simon. Most surprising dark horse (and where roughly): Jester's Kingdom could be just outside the top 10. I think Nonsuch will do better than expected too. Will it be a good or bad night/s for the contest?: Good night I think. Hopefully with a deserving winner. Who will win?: Kopecka - in an (awesome) parallel universe. In reality, probably FNT Nickodonia or Ashton.
March 8, 200916 yr How you think your entry will do: LOL. I absolutely have no idea. Some tell it's a masterpiece :kink: Others don't express their opinion at all. What you think the biggest shock of the night/s will be: M83 storming the Top 10. Most surprising flop (and where roughly): Nickodonia :( Most surprising dark horse (and where roughly): Eledan. Low Top 10 Will it be a good or bad night/s for the contest?: IMMENSE night! Who will win?: Hendinia. I haven't changed my mind on that.

March 8, 200916 yr Author I still don't understand how you think Noisettes can win Pavel? :lol: It's had nowhere near enough vocal support (or even Multichart support!) to challenge for the win...
March 8, 200916 yr How you think your entry will do: Leave! will do allright, 12th perhaps? What you think the biggest shock of the night/s will be: Taylor Swift flopping, the whole cheap entries thing will have a bad effect on it Most surprising flop (and where roughly): Simondly though Nickodonia perhaps aswell, i just cant see it getting top 5 at all. Most surprising dark horse (and where roughly): Rontvia perhaps? Just anyone except Rivandia. Will it be a good or bad night/s for the contest?: Good but a lot of people will think of it as bad due to a lot of cheap(ish) entries doing well Who will win?: Havent a clue
March 8, 200916 yr I don't know :lol: I just have the feeling! Won't care if they finish last anyway. First impression is the most right one. [/theonewhothoughtheadhuntedwouldwin] LOL
March 8, 200916 yr Prepare yourself to that :kink: OK but no pictures! :lol: I don't know :lol: I just have the feeling! Won't care if they finish last anyway. First impression is the most right one. [/theonewhothoughtheadhuntedwouldwin] LOL I actually have a good feeling about Hendinia to, it's a class song, but maybe too indie.
March 8, 200916 yr How you think your entry will do:hmmm hopefuloly low top 10 What you think the biggest shock of the night/s will be: Taylor Swift missing top 10 Most surprising flop (and where roughly): MKL Most surprising dark horse (and where roughly): Numayania Will it be a good or bad night/s for the contest?: personally one of the best Who will win?: Angelicland or Nickodonia
March 8, 200916 yr How you think your entry will do: 14th, hopefully Top 15. What you think the biggest shock of the night/s will be: Nonsuch or Ojnoj Most surprising flop (and where roughly): Simondly - Love Story, I now think about 16th. Most surprising dark horse (and where roughly): Ojnoj, or perhaps Nonsuch Will it be a good or bad night/s for the contest?: Good! Who will win?: Scherzland or Mdice Edited March 9, 200916 yr by TheRobotKing
March 8, 200916 yr How you think your entry will do: I think Marina will finish last. I don't think I've ever had such an entry with such negative feedback from other nations. Still it was good to hear it played on Radio 1 this week by Huw Stevens; and played on Radio 2's Jonathan Ross show yesterday. But I'm starting to think she is going to be this year's Ladyhawke = music critics & writers love her but the public stubbornly refuse to buy her records with Little Boots stealing her thunder. What you think the biggest shock of the night/s will be: Taylor Swift finishing top 10. In any other contest the concept of a long running US Top 10 hit & current UK#2 hit doing really well would have been laughed at. Most surprising flop (and where roughly): Lorikeet - VV Brown - Leave! will finish in the bottom 8 despite it being a really good song/artist. Most surprising dark horse (and where roughly): Numayania - Alcazar - We Keep On Rockin' will finish mid table & Dalisska - Marie Mai - Emenne-Moi will finish 11th-15th. Will it be a good or bad night/s for the contest?: Personally this contest has been by far the least enjoyable because of: 1) the songs selected - this is probably the first contest where I have discovered no great songs that I have never heard before it & the 2 songs that got my 12 & 10 Pts are songs that I ... 12Pts: would have entered for BJSCXIV had it not been selected by another nation first; & 10Pts was nearly selected by Nonsuch in a previous contest which resulted in my lowest result to date. 2) The cattiness - the time to clear the air is after the contest has ended not during it. I feel very sorry that Peter has had to host this contest, as I think he has done a great job so far and been an excellent host; I just hope this contest is just a blip & not the beginning of the end. Who will win?: FNT Nickdonia or Scherzland

I wouldn't say it's so much negative - it's quite a liked track, it's just most people prefer Mowgli's Road and don't think it will do well if that didn't :( I don't think she has all that much in common with Little Boots tbh, she reminds much more of a love-child of Kate Bush and Kate Nash...
March 8, 200916 yr She's Kate Bash! Actually I really like the song. And I never heard Mowgli's Road yet...
March 8, 200916 yr How you think your entry will do: Hopefully top 10, it's possible :D What you think the biggest shock of the night/s will be: Rivindia doing better than (I) expected Most surprising flop (and where roughly): FNTNickodonia (only cos people are expecting us to win/come top 3 :P) 9th-11th (but I'll be ecstatic with that!) Most surprising dark horse (and where roughly): Dalisska (Low top 10) Will it be a good or bad night/s for the contest?: Good night, hopefully a great winner Who will win?: Angelicland :|
