March 15, 201213 yr Aquafina and Skall will be banned next month then. I thought banning was for non voters not late voters. In the case of Skall who contacted the host to inform of a delay in voting, I think that a ban would be very harsh.
March 15, 201213 yr Author Harve hasn't actually voted yet, I just have a PM last night saying he does still intend to this evening.
March 15, 201213 yr Author I think that's fair. I'll still deduct 33% from his own score but accept his votes provided he submits them this evening. I'm conscious that this doesn't seem consistent with the semi finals, however to clarify, Lee's votes made no difference at all to who qualified (aside from himself) so that is why I didn't include them. The final however is very close in places and Harve's votes COULD make a difference to many countries. Argh, I hate these things. They'd better not change the winner though or there'll be uproar... :lol:

March 15, 201213 yr So the gap between 1st and 2nd is less than 12 points? :o Without an obvious winner this month, there's probably 24 points seperating the top 10. :D
March 15, 201213 yr Author Ha! Ooops. Maybe I'm just trying to con you all and we instead have a 250 point winner...
March 15, 201213 yr I think this month is the most excited I've been for the result in any of the months I've competed. I can't really pinpoint a winner at all, once we do know it'll probably seem really obvious though.
March 15, 201213 yr Voted! The recipient of my 8 pointer is going to be rather shocked as I don't believe I've gave them significant points before, despite being in almost every competition I've been in myself! I still haven't decided why I like their entry, but I do, and that's all that matters, k?!
March 15, 201213 yr And I believe this is the first time I've incurred a penalty, despite having a reputation for lateness. Let's ignore the time when I missed the CD Swap deadline. By six weeks. :ph34r:
March 15, 201213 yr Author How are ties in the final split? Is it by the most individual sets of votes, then number of 12s etc?
March 15, 201213 yr How are ties in the final split? Is it by the most individual sets of votes, then number of 12s etc? It's in the Rules thread now. :D In the case of a tie for first place in the final (or ANY tie in the final!), the winner of the tie is determined by the highest number of votes (ie. 14 countries voted for X, whereas only 10 countries voted for Y. Therefore, X wins). If both have received the same number of votes, then it's determined by number of 12s received. If this fails, then it's determined by number of 10s, and so on. However, semifinal ties are first broken by number of 12s. If the tie hasn't been successfuly broken, then it's done by 10s, and so on.
