ASIDE: Buzzjack is going REALLY SLOW at the moment, so if it's crashed I warn in advance that my votes will be after the deadline if this doesn't sort itself.

 

EDIT: OH, it's alright now.

VOTED

I'm glad you liked that song so much! I do love a big dance-pop song now and then :wub:

 

I really liked it! It's even landsliding my country's National Final to this other contest I'm taking part in. And it has some fierce competition from Laleh, Amanda Jenssen, Smith & Thell and HandS! LOL :lol:

Haha! :D Great! Some really good songs it's beating there! :D Let me know if it ends up winning your national final!

I REALLY think it's a bad idea that hosts have gotten into the habit of revealing the number of points the leader of a semi has. The whole point of not revealing the results of the semi is to stop it affecting the final results, and I've got no doubt the speculation over Look Back being the only song capable of storming semi 1 played at least small part in the votes of a couple of people who maybe got a little casual and bumped a song or two above it in their votes as they thought it a certainty to landslide, thereby stopping it from winning.

YEP.

 

Takes the fun out of everything.

Did everyone end up voting? And is there still a chance we will get the results this evening? :D

:lol: This is the biggest bullshit I've ever heard.

 

The thing is that no one has a clue of which song managed 100 points from semi 1.

 

The whole idea to reveal some clooz is too keep entertainment alive.

 

YEP.

Oh shush, I think it's the contrast.

 

It's not BS. When I myself think that something is SO likely to win I tend to give it one or two points less indeed. It was obvious Loreen would win (although I didn't WANT to believe it haha) so I gave her only 10 points as she didn't need the 12 really! Or Lana who got only a 7.

 

 

Well, the clues can be more SUBTLE, like 'there's so far a 3 point difference between #10 and #17 in one of the Semis!!!1!!1' or something like that. Well certainly not

 

"(Semi 1)

#1 - 115pts

#2 - 101pts

#3 - 96pts

#4 - 88pts

etc.

 

(Semi 2)

#1 - 99pts

#2 - 91pts

#3 - 90pts

#4 - 77pts

etc."

 

Oh shush, I think it's the contrast.

You could've not specified which Semifinal that was then.

And I gave Tone 4 in semis and 5 in finals, so this is very debatable if we go back and forth with details.

 

I did not gave such a clooz :lol: all I did is reveal highest pointer and lowest as well.

Ok, maybe that was a bad move right there but I can guarantee if it was the opposite you wouldn't mind at all :lol:

Ok all votes are counted (besides Martyn who need to give me his 5 pointer :lol:) and I wanna thank everyone for voting on time.

If Tyron's hypothesis proves to be correct this time then a Semi 1 winner has less chance of winning now. Which is good for me. It would be bad for me otherwise. So no, I would mind.

There you go ;)

There you go ;)

Erm I said I WOULD mind. That's kind of the opposite of WOULDN'T mind.

That;s why i don;t see a reason why you;re on fire at all regarding 115 pointer I revealed :lol:

 

After all counting, I can announce that we have 5 x 100 pointers combine from both semis.

 

Speculate now more.

 

 

I think 'Frontside Ollie' will landslide to victory. :w00t:

^ It's so Finnish Eoghan Quigg, it hurts.

 

As for this whole debate, it's added much needed speculation to the thread, we have no idea WHO this leader of Semi Final 1 regardless of us saying it's Paulina Rubio, there's nothing to say it is. Whatever the host wants to do, the host should do - and I think it's helped with the activity in this thread to be honest. Perhaps it says more about you, that you're not willing to vote your top 10 songs because one is more likely to win..

Edited April 14, 201213 yr by Robot Reloaded

I agree... if people amend their votes because they assume a song will do well then they have absolutely nobody but themselves to blame if it doesn't.

 

PICK UP THE PHONE AND VOTE, THEY'RE NOT SAFE etc.
