February 28, 20187 yr Author got 24 semi-final top 10s now (and maybe a 25th? only Silas knows and now a 25th!). just missing that semi-2nd (I'm also yet to have a 2nd in the final, excluding in one TBO Rejects contest) TheFatRat getting the highest number of points of all of these looks very out of place but that was BJSC 100 ha. contest number | position | points 081 | 01 | 126 | TheFatRat ~ Monody (feat.

February 28, 20187 yr I haven't yet won a semi final, even Pariah which was 2nd only to the song that was in the opposite semi in the final, finished 2nd, these have been my biggest successes: 61: M83 - Un Nouveau Soleil [sF2: 04 // 100] 67: Flight Facilities - I Didn't Believe (feat. Elizabeth Rose) (16 votes) [sF2: 05 // 093] 73: MÖWE - Birds Flying High [sF1: 05 // 084] 80: Owsey, Jernalism and Resotone - I've Been Secretly Falling Apart [sF2: 03 // 100] 82: tiasu - Plummet [sF2: 05 // 093] 92: Marcus Warner - Africa [sF1: 04 // 100] 96: Steven Wilson - Pariah (feat. Ninet Tayeb) [sF1: 02 // 103] MOWE and Flight Facilities have been my biggest underperformances, both finished in the mid 20s in their finals. My other top 10 hits - NO CEREMONY, Hiatus and Daydreamer all finished 7th funnily enough, I think my biggest overperformers were Two Steps From Hell - Miracles and Illenium - Fortress, which went 19th-12th and 18th-20th respectively, I don't think I could've lived had the former DNQ'd x (oh lol I didn't actually see I'd already posted in here, at least I had things to add now x)
February 28, 20187 yr Don’t know how many top 10s i’ve had but i’ve won the semi twice with Gypsy & 1/M/T.
March 5, 20187 yr I mean I wish I kept all my stats about everything BJSC related lol (I did go checking for some notables just now) but my stats nerd ranking is currently: half-assed. I do know I have never won a semi-final and rarely have come top 10 in one. My only winner to date (BJSC 81's Allie X - Sanctuary) came 2nd in its semi. Ladytron - Destory Everything You Touch from BJSC 11 (!!!) came 8th in the semi before coming 4th in the final, 'Ankara' from 93 came 6th in the semi before coming 11th in the final and 'Falcons' from 99 came 5th in the semi before also coming 11th in the final (I had a bit of an 11th place curse last year haha). Pretty sure everything else has been either a DNQ or just kinda got through in a forgettable position... To add to this, I've just gone snooping again and found that I actually have more semi top 10s than I realized. In addition to the ones already mentioned, Regina Spektor - Samson (BJSC 17) came 8th in the semi before coming 20th in the final and in the following contest, Röyksopp - This Must Be It achieved 7th place in the semi before coming 17th in the final. Then fast forward to 79, Daya - Sit Still, Look Pretty came 9th in the semi before coming 15th in the final. Yay for "unknown" success stories!
March 5, 20187 yr Were you snooping in the OP of your national thread which already had all of this information from me sending it to you a few months back? :kink:
March 5, 20187 yr Were you snooping in the OP of your national thread which already had all of this information from me sending it to you a few months back? :kink: No, I had forgotten about that :kink: But thanks ofc.

Up to 3 semi winners since my original post, none of which won the final, while my 2 final winners were both 2nd in the semi. 31 semi-final top 10s in total. x
March 5, 20187 yr LOL that's my sister. Really?! I know Iceland is a small country but I'd have never guessed one of my Icelandic entrants would be literally related to the one Icelandic BuzzJacker. :lol: Tell her a randomer from the Internet thinks 'Demons' is a really gorgeous song xx (or don't)
March 5, 20187 yr Really?! I know Iceland is a small country but I'd have never guessed one of my Icelandic entrants would be literally related to the one Icelandic BuzzJacker. :lol: Tell her a randomer from the Internet thinks 'Demons' is a really gorgeous song xx (or don't) Lmao yeah that's really my sister :lol: and I will definitely tell her. I personally love all her songs (duh) but my fav is either Disable Emotions, Daydream or Wolverine.
March 5, 20187 yr Author so Nora En Pure now becomes my 6th(!) entry to finish 5th in the semi-final, quite lucky to have the number of semi-final top 5s that I do (Bré do you know where Laurel finished for me in the cancelled semis?)
March 5, 20187 yr I'm afraid not, I didn't save those tables and they're now swallowed up by the wrath of Photobucket. I believe Vülker still has the data though ~
March 6, 20187 yr BJSC 92 2nd Kaneholler - Paper Games BJSC 99 3rd Hollyn - Alone BJSC 87 5th Meg Mac - Never Be BJSC 89 6th Joseph - White Flag BJSC 90 6th Lauren Alaina - Road Less Traveled BJSC 71 7th Coasts - A Rush Of Blood BJSC 88 7th PARRI$ - Nasty BJSC 77 10th Jocelyn Alice - Jackpot BJSC 79 10th Rachael Lampa - Avalanche BJSC 93 12th ARY - Higher BJSC 101 12th Joshua Micah - Who Says? BJSC 73 15th Holychild - Running Behind BJSC 98 15th Blondage - Dive BJSC 84 16th Sleigh Bells - A/B Machines BJSC 91 18th Tall Heights - Spirit Cold BJSC 78 20th Phases - I'm In Love With My Life Pretty random - neither of my two top 10 finalists (Meg and Lauren) are among my two best semi-final successes, Kaneholler didn't even make top 20 in the final, and PARRi$, Jocelyn and Rachael all went from top 10 in the semi to near-last place in the final. But I had no clue I had as many as 9 top 10s in the semifinal :o
March 6, 20187 yr Lmao yeah that's really my sister :lol: and I will definitely tell her. I personally love all her songs (duh) but my fav is either Disable Emotions, Daydream or Wolverine.No pressure but I hope you will consider taking part in BJSC sometime!
March 11, 20187 yr Just going to stick with my SF Victories or we'll be here all year. XX \ Tone Damli - Butterflies (4th) XXXV \ Kristine Elezaj - Warpath (5th) XLI \ Tone Damli - Look Back (2nd) XLII \ Elen Levon - Like A Girl In Love (2nd) LII \ Tone Damli - Smash (3rd) LVII \ Little Nikki - Little Nikki Says (3rd) CI \ Alvaro Soler - Sofia (1st) Only converted this once and my first winner came at a time when we didn't have semi-finals so it took 101 contests for me to do a clean sweep of the semi and final. Another thing to add to the "Pinnacle was robbed" checklist, is that it was robbed of a SF victory that would have continued the perfect pattern of winning the Semi-Final with every Tone entry and my SF winners alternating between Tone and other artists. Y'all really f***ed up there.
