February 12, 201213 yr WOOO! Very happy that we didn't get the runaway winner that was expected, we didn't even get the runaway winner as the winner :o A big fan of both the top 2, so well done to Fljotavik. The biggest well done goes to Freeze though, what an incredible contest this has been - so much effort has been put in, and you deserve a huge thanks on behalf of everyone who's done BJSC this contest. Edited February 12, 201213 yr by ROBOT
February 12, 201213 yr I was about to say, you really ought to stop predicting 'obvious landslide' winners! :lol: I'm so off the ball recently, for every bit of analysis that can be drawn from various iTunes charts/the multichart/personal charts/hype/odds/past trends etc...all it takes is something like Foxes, or Tooji, or Soluna Samay to prove me wrong. I'll stick to predicting the UK charts, I'm best at that :lol: The UK public are more predictable than the BJ public/the European public.
February 12, 201213 yr OMG! 12!!!!! Thanks Freeze! I can't believe that Foxes actually won! I really do adore the song but it really didn't seem to have that much of a buzz about it in BJSC at all so I'd prepared myself for low top 10 at best before the results. :o Oh and I must have sounded like a right prat when I've PM'd you my votes! :D (ps... Sorry Silas. I do feel quite bad for you) (but YAY none the less) Well done on the amazing hosting also Mr Freeze, that result was SO worth making a flag for. :D At least I've finished 2nd three times to song's I've loved each time. Although Jess Mauboy and Bev Knight did score more :lol: Congratulations on the début victory! If you have any queries about what you do next, the mod team is just a PM away ^_^ (I know you're hosting Unknown Pleasures currently so will probably be a-ok) I concur that Freeze did a wonderful hosting job! Well, apart from delaying the inevitable far too long.
February 12, 201213 yr I am so sorry, Phil :( But I had to make things really exciting when I noticed how INCREDIBLY close it was! :( Did you not see the reaction last time? It was hard to miss. :drama:
February 12, 201213 yr Continuing my silver lining hunting, I don't have to follow up this epic hosting job! ^_^ Poor Dandy is going to feel like London hosting the Olympics after Beijing. :heehee:
February 12, 201213 yr I'd also like to thank Freeze for such a fantastic contest. Brilliant layout and design, and for a first time hosting you really excelled. :D Dandy* has already had experience in hosting Unknown Pleasures so no doubt there will be a large amount of effort put into hosting BJSC XLII.
February 12, 201213 yr Congratulations Dandy! Fantastic winner! Thanks to everyone who voted for Marigold, and thanks Freeze for being such an excellent host! :D
February 12, 201213 yr Author And thank you Freeze for such a great contest! :cheer: And a fantastic top half, absolutely excellent stuff. Thanks to Freeze for an amazing effort from start to finish, absolutely flawless, incredibly impressive hosting. Dandy*, you have your work cut out :o Fabulous contest anyway, tusen talk Freeze :D Well done on the amazing hosting also Mr Freeze, that result was SO worth making a flag for. :D Thank you so much! :blush: :D OMG! 12!!!!! Thanks Freeze! I can't believe that Foxes actually won! I really do adore the song but it really didn't seem to have that much of a buzz about it in BJSC at all so I'd prepared myself for low top 10 at best before the results. :o Oh and I must have sounded like a right prat when I've PM'd you my votes! :D You know.. it's one of the best discoveries I've ever made, I think! :wub: No no, you didn't! ^_^ Also massive thanks Freeze for the 10 points pushing Batidas over 100 points. :o You're welcome! :wub: And because of you it's now on the top 15 most played songs in my Last.fm :o I ADORE it :wub: No points from Freeze too... Oh well.. No points Freeze? :( To be fair, I wanted to give points to about 90% of the entries :drama: One has to assume that Ashton were the country to get 144 pts in SF1 :o I will post the revised final scoreboard and the semi final results a bit later. I haven't finished processing everything just yet.
February 12, 201213 yr Out of the 31 finalists I wanted to give at least 4 points to 20 of them and there was only 6 I didn't really care for. ^_^
February 12, 201213 yr Oh, and Dandy*, I want presentation SO BEAUTIFUL IT MAKES MY EYES BLEED. The effort put into the presentation by Freeze was wonderful in things like top 3 recaps and stuff like that, but I've been yearning for gorgeous fonts and layouts again for a good while now and I just KNOW you're the one to bring them back D* http://www.moopy.org.uk/forums/images/icons/disco.gif
February 12, 201213 yr Hurrah for Dandy*! Award added. Well done for being an excellent host, Freeze.
February 12, 201213 yr As much as I would have liked to have won with Tone of all people, I am still immensely proud that my favourite artist has finished second with what is fast becoming an all time favourite song of mine. Entering an artist you absolutely adore has it's major risks (See BJSC I - FSR Rontvia and BJSC III/X - Ashton) so it's always nice to see that other people like them and some people discover them. On that note. If anyone really liked Look Back and would like to hear more by Tone Damli let me know and I'll point you in the direction of her epic's. Please do however start with my favourite song of all time, and BJSC XX's 4th placed finisher with 160 points: k048m3-ntxc

The biggest well done goes to Freeze though, what an incredible contest this has been - so much effort has been put in, and you deserve a huge thanks on behalf of everyone who's done BJSC this contest. I am properly relieved and chuffed by your words :blush: :wub: This has been one of the most time consuming, interesting, enriching, exciting, biggest projects I have ever had. And the responsibility has on one side been so much, but at the same time rewarding when I finally realized how I can actually do something like this in a way I'm sort of.. proud of! BJSC XLI has been in my head every single day since I won the last contest and especially when I hosted the semi finals and the final; I could not think of anything else! BJSC XLI has been a complete obsession of mine - and it feels so good to be finished with everything, as I can finally relax knowing you all enjoyed it :blush: I concur that Freeze did a wonderful hosting job! Well, apart from delaying the inevitable far too long. Did you not see the reaction last time? It was hard to miss. :drama: To be completely honest, though. It wasn't until the last couple of votes where I realized Fljótavík was the winner. I tried making the presentation as exciting as possible just in case any of you (or Numayania, FSR Rontvia or Unovia) was going to win it. It wasn't my intention to delay a Tone 2nd place :( Thanks to everyone who voted for Marigold Thank your for sending it! Such a great discovery :wub: Dandy* has already had experience in hosting Unknown Pleasures so no doubt there will be a large amount of effort put into hosting BJSC XLII. Oh yes, I'm sure he will do a fantastic job! :D
