March 30, 201015 yr Author 40/1, dire but expected :lol: Surprised Numayania are lower though, surely that has at least a slim chance to win? :o it's a pretty hard contest to call though...
March 30, 201015 yr I bet Kerli finished somewhere around 6th place in semis, it was just a red herring that it was between me and Numayania - to lower our expectations about how it's gonna do in the final and then BAM. :o Edited March 30, 201015 yr by Ljósið
March 30, 201015 yr There will be hella dark horsage in this contest I reckon... Nice odds Dark Horse -> Kylienips :unsure:
March 30, 201015 yr 50/1? WTF? I think that's my longest odds ever. Maybe I should be glad of that -_-

March 30, 201015 yr I reckon I would have better in the other semi though, I don't imagine in a million years this will win, but I'd like to think that I can keep up my top 15 streak at least... Excluding Serebro and Fibes Oh Fibes this is? Or are you talking about 2010? Or am I completely missing the whole point of this 'streak' thing altogether and should just shut up? :lol: I'll do the latter.
March 30, 201015 yr 50/1? WTF? I think that's my longest odds ever. Maybe I should be glad of that -_- It's not exactly a very good song, is it...? :kink:
March 30, 201015 yr in the last 3 contests Numayania finished withing top 15. Ooh...okay. :) Makes sense.
March 30, 201015 yr Ooh...okay. :) Makes sense. I would like to see some odds from Hendinia :) seriously what is the point having a odds thread when it is only Rich/Tyron and me who are doing it!
March 30, 201015 yr Author I would like to see some odds from Hendinia :) seriously what is the point having a odds thread when it is only Rich/Tyron and me who are doing it! It's always been the way. People seem to get offended/over excited when they get low/high odds, maybe it puts people off doing it for fear of either getting somebody's hopes up too high or crushing them :heehee: it's only one person's opinion after all, it has no effect on the final outcome, my odds last month couldn't have been much more wrong :lol:

March 30, 201015 yr Author also I hope for us who are doing it doesn't effect us and make them to not give us a vote only because I think Kylienips has no chance of winning at all :P. I think it would be incredibly bizarre if your opinion on somebody else's song affected/influenced their opinion on yours - like I said somewhere else, it's a song contest, not a personal vendetta contest :heehee: In the same way that I don't suddenly expect 12's from Hendinia, Skall and yourself for putting you in the top three of my odds :heehee:
March 30, 201015 yr I could have done it, but tbh I really don't know how to do odds.. and how you calculate it all sort of confuses me a bit. Just like personal charts, I just don't get how you do it.. so I don't/can't do them :(
March 30, 201015 yr Author Personal charts are easy enough, pick the 20 songs you currently like the most - and order them from best to worst. Same as voting here really just ranking songs with a number rather than points.
March 30, 201015 yr Personal charts are easy enough, pick the 20 songs you currently like the most - and order them from best to worst. Same as voting here really just ranking songs with a number rather than points. But you also include other elements besides personal feelings into the odds as well; like hype/certain comments, and you also take into consideration that some music has done better than other forms of mucis in past contests. Like if someone were to enter Ellie Goulding - The writer.. or Marina & and the diamonds - Hermit the frog (just examples though) any time soon, that must be calculated within those odds for that contest. Right? :unsure: And about the personal charts. I've seen you been talking about how much you've been playing that and that song, and if one song is played more within a certain time period than another song, that song gets a higher placing in the personal chart. And my confusion lies about those calculations. How much does it have to be played and how do you add that up with the time within a week? And do you nullify this the next week? Coz if you don't, then naturally it would take a long time for a new song to get a high placing as it would take some time to play it as much as the one on top. But that's not true either right? Since some songs debut at #5 or #2 etc.. so I don't get it :(
March 30, 201015 yr lol Freeze I don't count how many times I played my #1...I put #1 just because I feel that song more than the others atm...when I get bored of, starts to go down the charts and in the end out of the chart and replaced by some other song. the simplest example would be your top 10 that you just voted for XXV.
