June 4, 201114 yr Looks as if the scores will be very compressed this month, with everybody claiming that there are about 15-20 songs that they could vote for :o We could see the winner scoring only a handful more points than 15th place :lol:
June 4, 201114 yr Dalisska voted last night. Didn't have much trouble deciding my top ten.....it was fairly clear which 10 were the best.
June 4, 201114 yr Author Voting list updated - just 15 nations yet to vote but still another 9 hours until the deadline closes.
June 4, 201114 yr Have you sent reminders? It's a shame I'm not in the final, it just makes it a bit less exciting :(
June 4, 201114 yr Author Have you sent reminders? It's a shame I'm not in the final, it just makes it a bit less exciting :( Reminders will be posted later on. Last time I send out PM's 2 hours before the deadline but iirc I only needed 6 votes. I shall see what the situation is at 4pm. If I'm still awaiting quite a few votes, then I'll send reminders then. You must be gutted now for changing your entry at the last minute. :(

If I'm still awaiting quite a few votes, then I'll send reminders then. You must be gutted now for changing your entry at the last minute. :( The tradition is to do it around 24 hours before the deadline so that people have the maximum amount of time possible to see it. A lot of people just need a nudge as they've forgotten about it. 2 hours before the deadline, there's a high chance that they won't be around in time to see it. That said, it's people's own fault if they can't remember/be bothered to vote imo. Reminders shouldn't even be necessary, if you sign up to take part in BJSC, you're signing up to listen to all of the songs and vote for them accordingly. It's not like a week isn't long enough to squeeze in maximum 14 songs (because you'll have heard the others in the semi)!
June 4, 201114 yr Yup :( 99% sure I'm sending it next time, but I did just discover an AMAZEBALLZ K-pop track that I might send if I feel like taking a risk (clearly playing it safe doesn't work anymore!)
June 4, 201114 yr Zechonia voted. I can not share the excitement about the quality of this contest at all but that's nothing new. :lol: Edited June 4, 201114 yr by zechhh
June 4, 201114 yr Yup :( 99% sure I'm sending it next time, but I did just discover an AMAZEBALLZ K-pop track that I might send if I feel like taking a risk (clearly playing it safe doesn't work anymore!) It does, Le Kid are the favourites :lol: But there's playing it safe with an electro pop song with universal appeal and then playing it safe with a retro disco song. I think Stay The Night was SO popular because they got the schalger/disco/Scandipop balance so right, whereas Feel 4 U is more 70s throwback than schlager.
June 4, 201114 yr Just had my first run through and deleted the bottom 7. Left with 20 now, and I think I wouldn't have any problem voting for all 20. Think i'm going to have to take this as close to the deadline as possible :o
June 4, 201114 yr I'm just having 1 more quick run through of my top 12 to delete the last 2. I assume it still closes at 6, not had a reminder or anything?
June 4, 201114 yr I'm not going to have time to listen to all the songs, so I'm using my previous rankings of the SF1 songs, and listening at random to as many of the SF2 songs as I can before voting.
June 4, 201114 yr Author I'm just having 1 more quick run through of my top 12 to delete the last 2. I assume it still closes at 6, not had a reminder or anything? Not it closes at 8pm Damon ;) I've already sent a few reminders to posters who didn't seem to be online - only people I haven't PM'd yet are you (purely because you said you'd vote before the deadline :D ), Silas (said he would vote after he got home from work at 2pm) and Klumzee (got back off holiday today). The others have been PM'd - a couple have replied. Below are the nations yet to vote. Frahliso Kluminican Republic Elëdan (already PM'd) (The Federal Republic of) Ashton Kingdom of Shadow (already PM'd)
June 4, 201114 yr Just voted, i've either been really loyal to Semi 1 or Semi 1 was just better for me. Voted for 7 songs in Semi 1, 3 in Semi 2. Things have moved around a bit since the semi though, my 12 pointer in the semi only ended up on 5pts, was set to get a 12 in the final until I realised it wasn't actually that great haha.
June 4, 201114 yr Semi I've been in was a disaster actually, but now a couple of songs really grew on me so i changed my mind a bit. Semi 1 however is STUNNING. 6/10 positions in my Top 10. Black Video grew on me at the last minuite. It's absolutely INCREDIBLE. This has become massively CONFUSING since Hits always sends such dull and uninteresting songs to Unknown Pleasures (that Britney one is still my least UP song ever :( ) and so far has been entering utterly brilliant top material to BJSC. *does not compute*
