Posted January 1, 201213 yr http://img708.imageshack.us/img708/917/final1y.png Vfelkømjen to Morpeth Cove and the Final of the fourth TBO. It gives us great pleasure to once again be hosting this contest in our nations Capital city. Tonight we are in the Tajkí-A listed building, Royal Ashton Concert Hall. The hall was built in 1298 and is the newest building in the old 'City of Morpeth' region of today's sprawling capital. The oldest free-standing building in Morpeth dates back to 117 BC, with the façade of Ashton House dating back even further to 239 BC. The capacity of the Concert Hall remains just 7,500 making it one of the smallest BJSC approved venue's in the nation, despite the 25 year restoration project to return it to it's magnificent best. The ASC and SNÁ have decided to host Le Grande Finale here to show the old city in all it's glory. You rules/instructions for the Final in the Federal Republic: 1] Send your votes to me, Silas. 2] The points system used for the Final will be the Eurovision System (12, 10, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1) 3] You can only vote in TBO if you have participated in at least one contest within this decade [XXXI - XL] 4] You may not under any circumstances vote for your own entries. Doing so may cause you to be murdered by myself. 5] Just sending the country name will mean your vote is rejected. I need to know artist/song as well to differentiate between those who are fortunate to have more than one entry in TBO. 6] Failing to vote will result in a points deduction for your entry(ies) of 15 points. Participation is optional and will not affect your ability to participate in BJSC XLI.

January 2, 201213 yr Voted! :D Strong final. Could have voted for my Top 16! (Plus if we were allowed to vote ourselves, obviously I'd vote my own entries also. So 19 out of 30 isn't too shabby!)
January 2, 201213 yr Can you please change my link for Inescapable to this please as the one you have is some high pitched squeaky one :( Thank you :D
January 2, 201213 yr Author No worries! I had the laptop on mute while I was getting the winners links as I was watching TV :lol:
January 2, 201213 yr Voted, it was surprisingly easy in the end as most of my favourite tracks haven't made it through. There were exactly 10 tracks I would vote for with the top 2 being miles ahead of the others.
January 2, 201213 yr No worries! I had the laptop on mute while I was getting the winners links as I was watching TV :lol: Cheers :D The broadcast of the show is shown in Farahtyn on Wednesday night. Including "hilarious" backstage banter with some hilarious presenting team from Farahtyn stalking the contestants around the green room!

Gotye and Azealia's qualifications are obvious though due to the release of the former and BBC sound of appearance of the latter.
January 2, 201213 yr IWTB only came 13th? :o Blimey, I thought it had finished top 10 (it was the contest before I joined)!
January 2, 201213 yr Loving the order of acts performing. :kink: Do I smell a slight bias towards Ashton/FSR Rontvia right at the end or was it a genuine "random.com" co-incidence? :D Anyways, I'm fully expecting Batidas to not win but I already know which tracks are my personal favourites and will be voting in the next 30 minutes or so.
January 2, 201213 yr ...and as promised, exactly 30 minutes later Batidas have voted. :w00t: Ba'ahu du Reagán <--- :D
January 2, 201213 yr Currently finalising my top 10, not finding it as hard as I thought it would be.
January 2, 201213 yr Going to vote even thou I have non entries in TBO, again :lol: I guess fourth time's a charm? :P
January 2, 201213 yr Will start listening through these soon :D Off-topic a moment, but can any of the mods tell me whether the next contest will be able to start this month once this competition has finished or whether it will have to wait until February. Thanks ;)
January 2, 201213 yr Voted! So hard to decide how to vote - but got a good balance in the end between my favourite discoveries and favourite entries overall of the year! Made me realise how consistently great two or three nations were during 2011 :o
January 2, 201213 yr No worries! I had the laptop on mute while I was getting the winners links as I was watching TV :lol: Glad you found my new link for Chart Music! It was criminally removed from both Youtube, Soundcloud and everywhere so I had to rectify that (for my EOY chart and this) :drama:

January 2, 201213 yr Some of these odds I can agree on, but Ein will do much better! alot of people have said it have grown for them :)
