July 10, 20169 yr Not that I disagree with Bob being vetoed but isnt 7 points for a top 60 hit a tad ridiculoud?
July 10, 20169 yr Author wait so what do I do? am I allowed to reconfirm or is it too late? If you have been vetoed, you can reconfirm using the googleform, changing your entry :dance:
July 10, 20169 yr YAY. thank GOD. looks like i'll be going back to my original entry after all !! :lol:
July 10, 20169 yr okay reconfirmed! This is literally the messiest confirmation saga ever oh my, I've ended up with my original song after all that :lol:
July 10, 20169 yr Not that I disagree with Bob being vetoed but isnt 7 points for a top 60 hit a tad ridiculoud? I've discussed separate with Ryan for ages about some of the point allocations in the veto framework. I really hope there is an update coming because some of them are ridiculous you say and then some things aren't even included which should be. But I won't go on about it in here because Ryan already wants to murder me for how anal I have been about it 🌞
July 10, 20169 yr Author Give me a second to update the list. I was a Tardy Targaryen last night! It is still the expanded contest :cheer: :wave:
July 10, 20169 yr Not that I disagree with Bob being vetoed but isnt 7 points for a top 60 hit a tad ridiculoud? Well it was top 25 in Belgium, but I think it was more the Stevie Wonder thing (and Bob's name power). Even without those 7 points, you only need one 12 point offence to be vetoable (or 14 from smaller offences), so a 12-pointer is just as easily dismissed as the others if the mods aren't keen on it.
