Posted March 25, 20196 yr Welcome to the Angel Arena in Sparkton-upon-Haze, Persephonia (named after our former Rejects winner Angel Haze) for the final of The Best of BJSC - The Rejects XI! At long last the nominations have been tallied up and the following 39 songs are vying to be named the eleventh champion reject, but only one can win and it is up to you, the BJSC voting public, to decide which it is ~ Send me a PM with your fifteen faves from the list (using the standard expanded final voting system, 18 points to your favourite, 15 to your second favourite and 13 through 1 for your 3rd through 15th favourites), feel free to spice it up with some commentary and/or fancy formatting if you want. Voting is open to all countries who entered at least one contest in 2018 (BJSCs 101-110) so I fully encourage anyone who may be interested to knock some votes together whether or not you have any songs here. I'll give a week to vote in this so the deadline is 23:59 BST on Monday 1st April, 2019*, with results to follow the next day hopefully. Countries with songs in this final who don't submit votes will incur a small deduction of 15 points. Also as ever you can't vote for any of your own entries. * will actually accept any votes that come in before the results start which will be around 6pm BST on Tuesday x Without further ado: 01 Daehun 109 // 02 Altyr Muunilinst 109 // Laura Branigan - Solitaire 03 Vülkyria 103 // Brendan Maclean - House Of Air 04 Summericia 109 // 05 Ultraviolenceland 105 // 06 Wholune 108 // 07 Thelonia 102 // 08 Lotunia 105 // 09 Cowtermont 103 // 10 Terra Avium 110 // 11 Holland-Oats 106 // 12 New Lexico 106 // 13 Tartford 106 // 14 Skall 101 // 15 Cowtermont 110 // GFOTY - Tongue 16 Kluminican Republic 109 // 17 Jupiterdonia 102 // 18 Harmonica 104 // 19 Beaverdonia Impakt Nation 106 // 20 Taahino 108 // 21 Fljótavík 104 // 22 Persephonia 102 // 23 Unovia 101 // 24 Republic of Adonia 105 // 25 Niceland 110 // Sotiria and Unheilig - Hallo Leben 26 Mulgracia 106 // July Jones - I Fall Apart 27 Cumulonimbia 107 // 28 Desbuanda 107 // 29 United States of Jack 103 // 30 Wholune 109 // 31 Skall 109 // 32 Terra Avium 103 // 33 Skall 105 // 34 The Actual Republic of Bellamia 108 // 35 Skall 104 // 36 Singerpurear 106 // 37 Utopia 110 // 38 Kluminican Republic 106 // 39 Hendinia 101 // Votes received (23): Altyr Muunilinst Cowtermont Danæviia FSR Rontvia Harmonica Holland-Oats Jadakissnia Jupiterdonia Kluminican Republic Land of DW Lotunia Niceland Persephonia Republic of Adonia Séyetana Singerpurear Skall Tartford Terra Avium Thelonia Trifoski Unovia Wholune ~ YouTube Playlist playlist?list=PL5ssvC1pOpu_mNDpjm5R8o5A7PpsytqlR Alternate links if auto-generated videos don't work ouC9r1rc5cY SM_iBFlR9SQ
March 26, 20196 yr 14 Skall 101 // Bandolero - Paris Latino 31 Skall 109 // God Colony - SE16 (feat. Flohio) 33 Skall 105 // of Montreal - Paranoiac Intervals/Body Dysmorphia 35 Skall 104 // Los Campesinos! - This Is How You Spell "HAHAHA, We Destroyed The Hopes And Dreams Of A Generation Of Faux-Romantics" Oh ha, do I have so many songs because I (probably) DNQ'd more than anyone else or because you have finally come around to rectify last year's crimes against humanity. Will of course be actually voting in the final!! Edited March 26, 20196 yr by Harve
March 26, 20196 yr Author You had 7 eligible songs but so did East Rukahavian (and Flynnonda had 8) and both of them got no songs in at all!
March 30, 20196 yr Any plans for a plug session? I can host one today if there's no better volunteer (=anyone else), as I'd need to start fairly early (about 7 PM GMT). The deadline is Monday and I really need to refresh my memory + give a second chance to some entries.
March 30, 20196 yr I'd love one tonight if possible! I can't remember/haven't heard a good section of these so would be helpful~
March 30, 20196 yr Author I was planning to do one over the weekend so happy to have one tonight! Will throw together a quick YouTube playlist now ~ edit: now added to the OP
March 31, 20196 yr Voted! I'm still not sure I'll ever fully understand how my 18 managed to DNQ. It continues to sound like a main contest winner to me.
April 1, 20196 yr I'll do this tonight. Y'all should know by now that I don't vote in the semis so I can win this ^_^
April 1, 20196 yr Author I'll do this tonight. Y'all should know by now that I don't vote in the semis so I can win this ^_^ I reserve the right to make a Curb Your Adonia meme about this if you now forget again. Last day to vote in this! (I mean I'm not gonna be super strict as ever and I'll accept any votes that come in before I do the results tomorrow but ye x)
April 1, 20196 yr Not INTENDING to sound contrarian but this is better than many finals wtf. Like it's very rare that I hear a K-pop or trap song that I like but both have these have occurred listening tonight!!
April 1, 20196 yr Voted! LOVE my 18, idk if I was in a different semi or what but idk how I don't remember it at all
April 1, 20196 yr Author We're up to 20 votes in this now (with a bit of help from me spamming people with PMs lol) which is much more than I was expecting after such a long delay, especially as only 18 people voted in the nominations stage! It'd be wonderful if we could end up matching the 25 votes the main TBO got ~ I think I'm going to aim to start the results at 6pm tomorrow (starting earlyish as it looks like there'll be a plug session for BJSC 113 semi 1 at 8) so consider that to be the real deadline x
April 2, 20196 yr Voted! Honestly preferred this to the last final because of how eclectic the songs were!
