February 19, 20178 yr ahhhh thank god i made it! lost some real gems in this semi, but it was genuinely too strong to vote through all the amazing tracks.
February 19, 20178 yr Errrrrmmmmm how the hell did Jade DNQ :mellow: :mellow: Perhaps the most shocking DNQ since I've been part of this. When I first heard it I was like... that'd be a hit!! I really am mind boggled as to how it didn't get through :/ :( As for myself I suppose I was risking it Lmao. I wanted to keep my strange experimental entries up a bit longer but alas nowhere near enough even if I was extremely doubtful about qualifying. Tbh it is more of a grower & maybe didn't hit with most people on first or second listen! My STREAK over already just when I was trying to keep it strong :( plus I've already got my next entry & it sounds like a secure qualifier too :( thanks Brade for the support <3 Rontvia out again too & Charlotte OC not qualifying (Darkest Hour is way better tbh x ) Edited February 19, 20178 yr by Rob S~
February 19, 20178 yr Oh no at Jade...I am sure you would have Q if you were in semi 1 :snif: Also so many of my faves gone :o, Cadelicia, Rontvia, Land Of DW :snif: :snif:
February 20, 20178 yr Qualification streak update (underlined countries have matched or extended their longest ever Q streak): 10 Unovia * ~ 8 Persephonia ~ 7 Republic of Adonia ~ 6 Aeroche 6 Bøtanikkä 6 Cor Lupus 6 Harmonica ~ 5 #00274E 5 Aesthetica 5 (République d')Ashton 5 (South) Danaelanda 5 Mulgracia * 5 Trifoski ~ 4 Taahino ~ 3 Altyr Muunilinst 3 D'yermak'er 3 Espen 3 Pupok 3 Ultraviolenceland ~ 2 Beaverdonia 2 (The Actual Republic of) Bellamia 2 Hendinia * 2 Niceland 2 Ramrynia 2 St. Burbia 2 Yehesi 2 Zanmatony ~ 1 Avalonia * 1 Bhangra 1 Daehun 1 Dobago 1 Flynnonda 1 Greenfroze 1 Hushkanukia 1 Joedonia * 1 Kylienips 1 Oslol 1 (-)π 1 Quintessa 1 Sandebörg * 1 Terra Avium DEAD 11 N DNTN :snif: 7 Medhelnia 5 Jadakissnia 4 Summericia 2 Fljótavík 2 New Lexico 1 Aelandor 1 Azure 1 Cadelicia 1 Desbuanda 1 Land of DW 1 Palmyra 1 Thelonia 1 Tinnmark * more consecutive entries have qualified (11 for Unovia, 6 for Hendinia, 6 for Mulgracia, 4 for Joedonia, 3 for Avalonia, 2 for Sandebörg) but these streaks were broken by breaks from the contest N DNTN lose their streak again which means Unovia now lead the list as they qualify for their 10th contest in a row (taking a clear lead even disregarding that their last 11 entries have qualified, only broken by them not entering BJSC 82). Medhelnia's streak comes to an end which means Persephonia are now in 2nd place on their own, followed by Republic of Adonia who are now 3rd alone. Unovia, Republic of Adonia and Harmonica all further extend their longest streaks, Aesthetica continue their streak which has continued since their debut, they're now the first country since Cor Lupus to start off with 5 Qs in consecutive contests, with the last to manage that before them being #00274E and Aeroche from BJSC 44. Still a few months until Aesthetica match Cor Lupus' opening run of 8 qualifiers though. Meanwhile, Niceland and Zanmatony follow their first qualifiers with getting their first consecutive qualifiers, and Flynnonda have qualified again to match their best run of 1 qualifier in a row (will this be the time for them to get back-to-back qualifiers?)
February 20, 20178 yr meanwhile in the down and out corner... Bignia-Zaragovina - 5 Tartford - 4 Singerpurear - 3 Séyetana - 2 Skall - 2 Syndare - 2 FSR Rontvia - 2 Buzzjack Mountain - 2 The Land Of DW - 1 Cadelicia - 1 Desbuanda - 1 Jayrusalem - 1 Kluminican Republic - 1 Fljotavik - 1 Medhelnia - 1 New Lexico - 1 Azure - 1 Aelandor - 1 N DNTN - 1 Usfland - 1 Tinnmark - 1 Summericia - 1 Jadakissnia - 1 Thelonia - 1 Look at what you've been doing to one of your poor mod nations - also 'S' country clique, what's up lately? though I'm actually pleased at how close to the top all the 2 in a row are, even if a couple have more because of breaks etc. Klum would be on par with Bignia if they'd entered and DNQed in 91.

February 20, 20178 yr Thank you for the 12 Noah <3 it softens the blow to know that at least a few people seemed to love it/discovered something special.

February 20, 20178 yr Sounds like the same problem some people had with my entry, slightly imperfect vocals but with great instrumentation makes for a much better song than technically perfect vocals and I will keep FLYING THAT FLAG! Thanks Iz, yes I too go for imperfect vocals, character and conviction is better than bland competence :lol: SO close to that sought-after nul points too :P

I had it down as a non-pointing track until I played it a few times, it's a grower. Shame for Bignia too, on 5 DNQ in a row (stealing Tartford and our thunder!) when they should also have qualified. OK I knew The Dead South would go down like a lead balloon, so I'm going retro-synth 80's German gem next time and win with it :P
February 20, 20178 yr I thought it was called Trumplandia these days??I think the proper term is Hell On Earth, but what's in a name?
