April 24, 201114 yr Thanks Freeze! Nice to hover around the top of the scoreboard, although with the 'dynamic voting order' it could all come crashing down towards the end :lol:
April 24, 201114 yr The voting is the BIG thing I watch the contest for. The performances tend to be the part you want to get out of the way once you've seen most of them in the semis. Yes but considering that most of the GBP doesn't watch the semis they're still magical :wub: Do people seriously not like the ESC voting? It's one of the major great things about the contest for me! Admittedly it used to be more interesting when the winner wasn't painfully obvious from the halfway point (or 5 votes in in 2009), but I still watch with interest, particularly to see if and where the UK's points come from. Plus it's always great to see your favourite song win, as has happened to me in 2001, 2004, 2009 and 2010 :wub: It's fine, but it's very rare that my favourite song wins. Apparently the voting will be arranged to be more exciting this year but they haven't actually officially confirmed that yet...
April 24, 201114 yr Not looking so hot right now. Oh well, i've had too many hits in a row. I'm overdue a flop.
April 24, 201114 yr :o Battidas still on nul points :( Hope that seriously changes, hopefully Tirrun's cleverly done the voting order so it's all really exciting and it all changes at the last minute :D
April 24, 201114 yr Do people seriously not like the ESC voting? It's one of the major great things about the contest for me! I LOVE the voting. Not a fan of every point being read though. The Bosnian woman who messed up in 2003 :wub: Swedish guy in 2008 :wub: Loved it even more in 2009 (waving my flag whenever we got points) & 2010 (becoming increasingly excited when it was apparent that Lena would win).

April 24, 201114 yr Author Kluminica made it through their first ever semi-finals with Sjus, but aren't highly tipped to do well tonight. http://i261.photobucket.com/albums/ii65/Trashley1309/BJSC%20XXXIII%20VOTING/VOTE05.png 12 ıı Batidas 10 ıı Numayania 08 ıı Greenfroze 07 ıı Unovia 06 ıı Hendinia 05 ıı FSR Rontvia 04 ıı BaNG 03 ıı Kathaldazia 02 ıı Kopečka 01 ıı Persephonia And Stine Bramsen goes into the lead for the first time since she last entered (and won!) with The Spell in XX. Batidas are finally lifted off the nul with a 12 from Kluminica - could this night not go as well for them as originally thought?
April 24, 201114 yr I don't mind the ESC voting when it's exciting at the begining but when you begin to get a vague idea of the finishing order just over halfway through (usually) I begin to find it dull :( Always carry on watching though :D
April 24, 201114 yr The voting is the BIG thing I watch the contest for. The performances tend to be the part you want to get out of the way once you've seen most of them in the semis. I wouldn't go that far, but I do tend to be more interested in the second half of the show than the first, apart from in 2009 where every detail/performance was more or less spectacular! The worst bit for me, almost exclusively, is the interval act/gap between the performances and voting. The only one I've ever genuinely enjoyed was Aqua and Safri Duo in 2001 :lol: Most countries see it as an opportunity to push some pretentious new age crap and the contest hasn't been about that for years. Last year's was a massive step in the right direction though, very modern.

April 24, 201114 yr FUUUUUUUUCKING HELLLLLLLLLL :o Thanks Klumzee :wub: :wub: If I win, I will also send a k-pop track :) I LOVE the voting. Not a fan of every point being read though.

That's my major issue, I wish all the votes were still announced, it gets hard to follow after a couple of drinks :lol: Agree that it's good when the vote presenter is funny or cute though :wub:

Same goes for 2009, but more so for sheer WTF value with those ridiculous plastic sheets or whateber with the people writhing around on them.
April 24, 201114 yr No points so far - so much for me being a contender. Sorry :( I can assure you that will change :kink:
April 24, 201114 yr Kluminica made it through their first ever semi-finals with Sjus, but aren't highly tipped to do well tonight. 12 ıı Batidas Batidas are finally lifted off the nul with a 12 from Kluminica - could this night not go as well for them as originally thought? :wub: I'm milking these moments because I suspect there will be very few during the course of the night.
April 24, 201114 yr Author Could we have the votes from the debuting l'Ex republique yugoslave de Vojvodine-dans-le-Wold, please? http://i261.photobucket.com/albums/ii65/Trashley1309/BJSC%20XXXIII%20VOTING/VOTE06.png 12 ıı Farahtyn 10 ıı Lievant 08 ıı Yuxhaaq 07 ıı Torchwood 06 ıı Batidas 05 ıı Tinnmark 04 ıı Greenfroze 03 ıı Herzebania 02 ıı Unovia 01 ıı Lorikeet And Farahtyn receive their first douze in years! However, the big story here is the 10 to Lievant, putting them in the lead for the first time…ever?
