March 23, 201015 yr How do people still not get how the wildcard/draw advantage thing works - why would you choose 5th? :/ Germany should have chosen 24th or 25th too...
March 23, 201015 yr How do people still not get how the wildcard/draw advantage thing works - why would you choose 5th? :/ Germany should have chosen 24th or 25th too... Exactly what I thought...I'm surprised how he didn't chose 1st or 2nd :P EDIT: or maybe 5 means luck in swiss lol Edited March 23, 201015 yr by Addy!
March 23, 201015 yr How do people still not get how the wildcard/draw advantage thing works - why would you choose 5th? :/ Germany should have chosen 24th or 25th too... In the last 5 contests, the winners has come from positions 17-20 four times out of five, and 24th once. I don't really think 22nd is much worse than 24th or 25th. It could even be better with the lines opening from the beginning, and I've always argued that by the time the last song comes around, people have already made up their mind about what they're going to vote for. Plus it's sort of an unwritten rule with the wildcards that you don't pick the last position. I think Spain bucked that trend last year and decided to be a bit cheeky, but mostly it's not really the done thing. I'd also say that it doesn't make that much of a difference whether they're performing 5th or 8th...they didn't have much to choose from did they. Maybe it's a lucky number or something.
March 23, 201015 yr haha, 12th for UK, bang in the middle - we'll be completely forgotten! flush! Brilliant for Germany, best of the big four deserves the best slot! Awful for Spain and Norway - if Ireland qualify and draw basically anywhere from 21-25, she'll take a HELL of a lot of Didrik's votes... Russia are hopefully dead and buried there! Awful position for an awful song! Lithuania should be the most underwhelming Eurovision opener for a good few years :lol: almost as underwhelming as them opening the final last year then :magic: Isn't going just before the break quite good generally?
March 23, 201015 yr Lines open from the beginning this year thou :kink: *hope it helps Didrik* :wub: You'd think it would, but for some reason having the lines open from the beginning actually seems to stack the odds further in favour of those near the end...
March 23, 201015 yr How do people still not get how the wildcard/draw advantage thing works - why would you choose 5th? :/ Germany should have chosen 24th or 25th too... They were drawn into the first half already, so they couldn't do much with the wildcard...
March 23, 201015 yr lol the UK are F-ucked with that draw! :heehee: great semi draw for Macedonia and Croatia :wub:
March 23, 201015 yr Isn't going just before the break quite good generally? Maybe if it was a song that people would go into the break thinking, 'wow, that was fantastic' but it's not, let's face it :lol: I'm still praying that the new mix will be shockingly fantastic though!
March 23, 201015 yr They were drawn into the first half already, so they couldn't do much with the wildcard... Didn't realise. I never quite followed the preliminary 'which half of the semi will you perform' draw. I was under the impression Switzerland picked 5th out of a choice of the entire 18 :heehee:
March 23, 201015 yr OK position for Ireland, I guess... I don't think it's too bad at all :) Good news for Germany, and France and Bulgaria :wub: At least there is no chance for Russia anymore :kink: I would be inclined to say the same about Norway...
March 23, 201015 yr Author Juries and voting starting from the beginning will make Norway the winner :kink: plus everyone will be WOW :o and when Ireland comes they will think.. naaah the Norwegian song was better :kink: IF Ireland qualifies of course :kink:
March 23, 201015 yr Would be funny if Ireland were drawn first or second in the final if they qualified, and then people's reactions would be all 'why have Norway done a copy of the Irish entry that was just on :mellow:' :heehee:

I'll be LMAO when Norway finishes in bottom 5 :kink: Edited March 23, 201015 yr by ♫ Boyan ♫
