June 30, 201114 yr Predict the top 10 of the final: 10. Farahtyn – Erika Selin – I’m a dreamer Bonus Question 6 l Where will the following finish? Farahtyn: 15th place Omg I just realised I did it like that! :lol: I must have confused Farahtyn with Allecian somehow :blink: But then I thought if Erika doesn't come top ten it could well end up 15th instead. Do I have to change, or can I predict like this? :heehee: :kink:
June 30, 201114 yr I do often wonder if the reason a lot of people don't take part in the odds/predictas is because they're worried about the reaction it will cause from others - 'will people think I'm underrating/overrating my own entry and coming across fake modest/over-confident?', 'will the person I've put in last place/bottom ten in the predicta or odds take great offense and not vote for me even if they like my entry?'. Or they're just lazy.

Do I have to change, or can I predict like this? :heehee: :kink: No it's fine to leave, covering more than one possibility is a good idea! Or they're just lazy. It can't be that, it takes less than 5 minutes to do :P
June 30, 201114 yr I do often wonder if the reason a lot of people don't take part in the odds/predictas is because they're worried about the reaction it will cause from others - 'will people think I'm underrating/overrating my own entry and coming across fake modest/over-confident?', 'will the person I've put in last place/bottom ten in the predicta or odds take great offense and not vote for me even if they like my entry?'. At the end of the day, odds are indeed only our personal predictions and I'd absolutely love for more people to get involved in them - what would be interesting is if we collated all of the different sets of odds together to come up with an 'utlimate set' and see how close they correlate with the final results! Judging by last month though, we were all mostly way off :lol: My reason for not doing the predicta before was that I didn't want to get it totally wrong :lol: I thought I'd do it this time though :P I just cannot get round to making odds, I understand how they work perfectly, but I couldn't make my own - so don't expect any from me! :P

Doing a predicta essentially IS doing odds because you can just convert the predicta order into odds very easily by just placing a number next to each one. Sure, a few songs will be in different places (an obscure indie song is never going to win but it'll have enough support not to finish bottom five) but they generally correlate quite well.

July 2, 201114 yr Author I'm starting to think you may be right about Ojnoj you know Pavvii, I was going to re-do my odds after voting's closed because although I've always thought it seems set for the top 5, there's not been a bad word said about it which isn't the case for all of the other favourites, apart from Havana Brown. It seems like it would appeal to a cross-section of people to so it might sneak a win for Jonjo (finally!) I won't divulge how taken I am of Misty Miller but my current album chart says it all :whistle:
July 2, 201114 yr I too am beginning to think Misty could (quite deservedly) take it! I hope that Havana TRASH doesn't though.
July 2, 201114 yr I believe Misty will walk it indeed. I wish Jonjo sent the acoustic live version though, but both are great.
July 2, 201114 yr Author I just hope it's not Leddra Chapman all over again. Story is still by a MILE my favourite ever BJSC discovery, the only one to go to #1 in my personal chart and it didn't even finish top ten :snif:
July 2, 201114 yr I was listening to Remember by Misty Miller last night, and I was beginning to think it will win as well :o When I first heard it (Jonjo mentioned he uploaded it to his YouTube so I went to look - he's subscribed to me :P) I thought it wouldn't do very well. But now I've really warmed to it, and I'm thinking it will win! I think Ashton will do a bit better as well than people expect! I'll leave my predictions as they are though, rather than editing :D

July 2, 201114 yr I'm predicting about 4th or 5th for Ashton, what are you thinking? :o I'm thinking top 5, but a lot of people haven't put Kristine in the top 10, from what I can see.
