May 7, 201411 yr Now for the quandaries of whether or not I should adjust the scores for the YTD to prevent rather substantial LXIV bias... (yay exciting though) Gonna keep you up at night for WEEKS. I've just dodged a bullet because Pandr Eyez were surely about to DNQ, so thanks Vulker for disappearing I guess!
May 7, 201411 yr Could we be cruel and have the only two DNQs be the auto-qualifiers? I would giggle.
May 7, 201411 yr I want someone to score a nill pointer now Wow Singerpurear in the final for the first time :cheer: Edited May 7, 201411 yr by *Tim
May 7, 201411 yr this was definitely the easiest & best way to go about the final <3 g'wan gazelle twin as well!
May 7, 201411 yr Author Just to confirm the hosting arrangements, this will be an Ashton-Zaragovina co-production of sorts. The Federal Republic will bring the final thread to you shortly. Votes are to be submitted to Bignia-Zaragovina who will be presenting the results show.
May 7, 201411 yr Probably wouldn't have made it through anyway so yayayay. There's the potential for a first ever nil point though!
May 7, 201411 yr I highly doubt a nul pointer will happen, maybe if the 12 point system was still kept but with 5 extra votes per country the effect of the larger pool of countries is more or less nullified. The likelihood of a song not being in *anyone's* top 15 out of 51 potential voters is pretty minuscule. I really think there will only ever be a 0 pointer if there's another 'Roo' without a Chez Wombat to mess everything up. Incidentally there would have been a nul pointer one time if the 12 point system had been kept in the One Big Final contests - incidentally it was a Letland (aka Vülkyria) entry. It actually didn't even come last but didn't place higher than 11th for anyone. :magic: EDIT: Actually scrap that, it did come last. However a New Caprica entrant the next contest got fewer points overall but would have received 1 point under the 12 point system.
May 7, 201411 yr *.* Sheelah provided FSR Rontvia with the two highest scoring winners EVER in the one big final era! Good memories :wub: It does mean we now have some very random finalist but it makes it more fun! And now a third is coming! I wasn't convinced by you winning unlike most, but I think it'll be a runaway now it's the one big final (which is a good decision really, the safest way to keep the ball rolling without making semi results different and possibly inaccurate).
May 7, 201411 yr So is this contest going down in history (if the stats thread is ever even updated again etc.) as Elëdan/Vülkyria or Ashton/Bignia-Zaragovina? Or both??? (The important questions)

(The important questions) Let the record show that is going down as PAVFLOP or SHAMBLES. Just realised that I'm away in Newquay partying that weekend so will miss the results sadly. ;(

(The important questions) Vülkyria/Ashton/Bignia-Zaragovina would be the most logical given that Elëdan will not actually host any part of this contest. (Confirmations/Final/Counting & Final Results)
May 7, 201411 yr CHEERS! (Although the glory is somewhat tarnished), glad I kept the rates I did for my semi, so I only have to listen to other semi. ditto.... I was expecting a Pavel twist, but this one is exceptional. :lol: I will only feel justified though if I finish Top 26, then again I'm owed a final, so what the hell, I qualified B-)
