Notable changes: - FSR Rontvia break the record for number of wins, with 7. - UnoShake and Ojnoj both appear in the medal table for the first time. - Sadly, Fanadminaj equal the record for worst debut and least successful country.

July 16, 201114 yr After the XI-XX era I thought that I'd never be able to string together such a great run of form again, but the XXXI-XXXX era has proved rather good so far! I have to admit I'm interested in seeing what you've chosen to enter for BJSC XXXVI. As long as it's nothing like 'Strawberry Shake' I'm sure Batidas will approve. If only the confirmations had closed today. :( :lol:

August 9, 201113 yr Author Stats updated to include data from XXXVI. A number of notable happenings this time... New Personal Best positions achieved by the following countries: Budtar - 17th ChrIseland - 18th (Debuting) Espen - 2nd Fanadminaj - 21st (Semi Final) Isconia - 1st Kluminican Republic - 5th Quintessa - 16th (Semi Final) Unovia equal their PB with a second 8th place. Isconia and Espen appear in the medal table for the first time. America join the UK in achieving the most victories based on nationality. Lana Del Rey becomes the 9th highest points scorer for the semi final eras of BJSC. New Sections Following on from a question asked regarding most consecutive top 10 places since a country's debut, this section has now been added to the thread. The current record is 4 top 10 placings and is held by Batidas, Hendinia and Mdiče. Another new addition is the section regarding countries that have finished on every position in the top 10. FSR Rontvia achieved this goal for the first time during XXXVI. There are three new add on's regarding DNQ's. Most DNQ's, Most Consecutive DNQ's and Most Consecutive DNQ's from a countries debut. A stat regarding the highest number of top marks awarded in a final is also included, the current record is held by Isconia who received 9 sets of 12 points in this edition. This info was provided by Rich! And the final new section concerns the biggest differences between winners and their Semi final positions. Both Hendinia and FSR Rontvia have finished 6th in a semi final and gone on to win the final with the same song.
August 9, 201113 yr Thanks as ever Ghosty, some great new stats this time :wub: Interesting to see that best improvement from semi to the final stat, interestingly until I received the last 5 or 6 votes in for Semi 2, Lorikeet were looking like a DNQ, and then in the end they finished 3rd in the final - really surprised me! I can't recall Danny Saucedo being entered 5 times at all, probably because he flopped each time :lol:

At the moment, the best improvement from SF to final stat only focuses on songs that went on to win the contest. I will probably look into putting in information about the biggest improvement from Semi final to final, regardless of position, ready for the next time I update the thread as I'll have to go through all the data from the previous semi finals. Should be interesting to find out though! The previous entries by Danny were All On You (SF17th), If Only You (13th), In Your Eyes (10th), Just Like That (5th) and Crash And Survive (28th). Bit of a mixed bag results wise! :heehee:

Bit of a mixed bag results wise! :heehee: Could you also (if you have time and the patience!) do it the opposite way - for example Torchwood finished 2nd in the semi this time and 19th in the final and there was some Paris Hilton song that won the semi once and then failed to reach the top ten of the final iirc... For some reason I'd thought that Radio was entered and flopped in the semi but perhaps it was just being discussed in a national thread!

For some reason I'd thought that Radio was entered and flopped in the semi but perhaps it was just being discussed in a national thread! Will try to, although I'm not making any promises as I've got to figure out a way to work it out accurately based on how well songs are expected to do in the final from their semi final positions :drama: .
August 10, 201113 yr Author I think I've figured out a way to do it using percentage of points available that qualifers obtained in the semi finals. Incase anyone's interested to see it, here's how the final results of XXXVI were expected to look like based on semi final performance: BJSC XXXVI 01 Espen 02 Isconia 03 Bignia-Zaragovina 04 Batidas 05 Fljotavik 06 Torchwood 07 B.a.N.G. 08 Ojnoj 09 Hendinia 10 Unovia 11 Kluminican Republic 12 Lorikeet 13 FSR Rontvia 14 Allecian 15 Caerfyrddia 16 Kylienips 17 FYR Vojvodina 18 Ashton 19 Numayania 20 Kopecka 21 JRK-off 22 Yuxhaaq 23 Budtar 24 Utopia 25 PR of Jester 26 ChrIseland 27 Farahtyn 28 Tinnmark Biggest Improvement: Kopecka & Lorikeet - Both finished 9 places higher than expected. Biggest Regression: Torchwood - Finished 13 places lower than expected. Only Batidas and Caerfyrddia finished in the positions they were expected to. If I have enough time, I'll try and work out the same for the previous contests before I update the the thread again after XXXVII, and then we'll have an idea of the biggest improvement/regression across all contests.
August 10, 201113 yr Interesting to see! I have to say that having come 8th in the semi I was fully expecting Ria not to come much higher than mid-table in the final, thankfully there were people in the opposite semi who liked it a lot! No idea what happened to Torchwood there though :o

If you want, I could do it for the previous contests as I understand how you worked that out and post the information that you want on here for you to use as I have plenty of spare time at the moment. It's up to you, as you would probably prefer to do it :)

No idea what happened to Torchwood there though :o I find it really interesting to see how much some entries fluctuate between the final and semi finals. I am really surprised at the level of improvement and regression in some entries as one would expect songs to maintain a similar pattern in results during the whole contest. If you want, I could do it for the previous contests as I understand how you worked that out and post the information that you want on here for you to use as I have plenty of spare time at the moment. It's up to you, as you would probably prefer to do it :) Thanks for the offer! I'll try and get it done myself so I have a full record of my own, but if I need any help I'll give you a shout! :)
