October 25, 20159 yr Mikey, have you been drinking? No, but my medication has been changed recently I guess I have to move on, but really votes should be checked by someone else so things like this don't happen again, before the final.
October 25, 20159 yr It is understandable to be annoyed at this but it's definitely not worth quitting the entire contest over :drama: The hosts are only human, as I've pointed out before when the vote adding is left to one person and no one else can even see the votes to double check them, you'd expect these sorts of errors to happen from time to time (even I've done this when hosting). 95% of the time such errors make no actual difference, it's just unfortunate that they have done a few times recently and especially this time where it wasn't noticed before the final. I will count 'Pretty Little Gangster' as a qualifier as far as Kylienips' Q streak goes ~ Although if they do quit that'll be the end of their streak anyway. Eek. (Please don't quit over this Mikey :s)
October 25, 20159 yr We could've seen this coming tho, as it's wrong on the sheet posted in the Semi 2 thread as well :magic: #AlwaysCheckUrOwnScores
October 25, 20159 yr No, but my medication has been changed recently I guess I have to move on, but really votes should be checked by someone else so things like this don't happen again, before the final. That's more like it... you've done brilliantly this year, in fact is this your best year ever in BJSC? I agree with Eyes and Bray that your Q streak should remain. Bré could even give you a nominal 'predicted' score in the YTD to make that fairer too.
October 25, 20159 yr We could've seen this coming tho, as it's wrong on the sheet posted in the Semi 2 thread as well :magic: #AlwaysCheckUrOwnScores The scores weren't the problem here, everyone's votes were put in correctly! The total was just wrong. Lesson learned: never trust the totals on spreadsheets. :kink:
October 25, 20159 yr The scores weren't the problem here, everyone's votes were put in correctly! The total was just wrong. Lesson learned: never trust the totals on spreadsheets. :kink: Which is why I said check ur own scores, meaning both given and received :magic:
October 25, 20159 yr I guess I over reacted a bit, it just felt like a kick in the teeth at first, rant over, I accept James's apology human error, things happen, shit happens, but they should be checked before the final goes up though, I guess I should be grateful for Meg Myers winning with Sorry, sorry guys. Just like Iz said, I get over it.
October 25, 20159 yr What... :o I was sure Ryder would have qualified among that lot, there goes my streak :( did James miscount or something :lol: Mikey foresaw it himself! :lol:
October 25, 20159 yr Can we have 2 people counting up the semi results from now on? Something has to be done now that we get a wrong qualifier just about every contest. Human error will always be likely to happen..
October 25, 20159 yr If there was to be a second person counting then it'd be a moderator. That's a massive if.
October 25, 20159 yr Sorry mart!nmissed out on the final, it was the obvious song that should have been in and a surprise to me it didnt qualify. Number crunching is always subject to input error (i spend weeks of my life doing it tediously at work and its so easy to hit a wrong number, miss a line or total upwrong, which is why my figures are always checked afterwards) so a back up is a good idea generally. That said, hey, as ive said before, i lost out on my first contest to a tiebreak gone wrong and didnt worry unduly as i got a record-breaking dnq debut streak ouf of it :lol: anyway hope all settles down and everyone is cool B-)
October 25, 20159 yr i smelt some drama i came as quick as i could :lol: :applause: I am HERE for this Mikey hissy fit!! This is probably the best one of the YEAR, seeing as there were no major pram moments during the Rate. Amma nominate this for Moment of the Year I think!
October 25, 20159 yr i promise i'll decide what i'm doing with hosting soon!! can anyone help my whittle down my potentials i've got 4 inspired pieces 4 u in a modern style (probs best my indie people hit me up for this)

Persephonia getting that shock top 3 under both systems, meaning we also beat Klum here. Ha. The top 10 is mostly the same save for Cadelicia massively benefiting from the 18 point system to the detriment of Joedonia. Trifoski were the biggest beneficiaries of the 18 point system (slightly surprisingly!), finishing 9 places higher, while Federal Republic of Ashton lost out the most, coming 8 places lower. Perhaps the most interesting result here is that despite being miles behind in the 18 point system, Syndare aren't even last here - the 12 point wooden spoon somehow goes to Unovia. Also odd that Altyr Muunilinst came 6 places higher with the 18 point system as you'd expect OMFG to be pretty niche. Exception proves the rule :magic:
