May 20, 20196 yr Author Now, let's take a look at how the jury voted... http://i.imgur.com/AWTQ8Xh.png +98 Bhangra :: MARUV ~ Focus on Me http://i.imgur.com/cztzO1H.png +133 Oslol :: Eden XO ~ Have It All [F9 Club Radio Mix] ...and indeed Oslol would have won anyway! not by a landslide as some were expecting, but still comfortably ahead of Séyetana who lag 28 points behind.
May 20, 20196 yr HOLY SHIT THAT SCORE *.* I'm sorry ducky, looks like you're back in the lane again :P Congrats!
May 20, 20196 yr Congratulations Oslol! :cheer: Obviously must be disappointing for Séyetana to miss out on victory again after coming so close but tbh I did prefer Oslol's entry and it was in my top five, so of course I'm glad to see it win! Now we get to enjoy another Oslol hosted contest, yay!
May 20, 20196 yr Many congrats imaduck! PLEASE you better host again, we the BJSC people most definitely need an encore. Unfortunately wasn't fan of the winning song at all :/ really a bit disappointed Marnik couldn't clinch it & make it 2 back-to-back fantastic winners but 2nd is not to be sniffed at is it really?! Also, GREAT hosting danG - loved those scoreboards & love how much effort you put into the hosting duties of this, hopefully be returning to your shores once again soon!
May 20, 20196 yr Congrats Oslol! A good track indeed though I would have loved to have seen Séyetana win, it was one of the most instant songs I’d heard in a while. Thanks for a great hosting job Dan!
May 20, 20196 yr Author Final scoreboard Thanks for following along, it's been a great contest with a lot of great music sent. I've very much enjoyed hosting it and I'm glad we didn't get one song landsliding as it always makes for more interesting results when it's a close race. I was really hoping Séyetana would end up doing it, what a really great entry from them, but I also very much like Oslol's entry so I can't complain too much at them winning again!
May 20, 20196 yr Well that's good that the last minute Hendinia votes didn't actually change the winner! Congrats ducky, this was... not one of my favourites but it did grow on me a fair bit during the contest (from initially being one of my least faves to ending up not even in my bottom 10 of the final) and I can definitely see why it won, it does have a bit of a Paulini vibe to it so it's kinda making up for that missing out originally. Rather gutted for Séyetana as this felt like the one for them but hey, the margin wasn't too close in the end! (And Oslol would blatantly have won by even more if New Lexico voted as well :P) Bracing for impact if we are due another Oslol hosting now. And of course it's once again at the same time ducky is already hosting on PopJustice as well. :lol: You posting the rest of the votes tonight Dan? x
May 20, 20196 yr Ahhhhh so happy with 20th! Thank goodness for Rob :lol: Well done Ducky, a deserving winner for sure! And thanks Dan for hosting what has been my favourite BJSC in such a long time.
May 20, 20196 yr oooh yay!! I did like the oslol entry wayyyy more than seyetanas if I'm honest so pleased with that outcome x also surprised anavae got us back into the top 15! as much as I am kinda gutted to have just missed out on the top ten, I was expecting at least 10 places lower than where we ended up so really can't complain! thanks to anyone who sent points our way :wub: also st. burbia deserved so much better!! the biggest robbery of the contest for sure, I thought that would definitely be a top ten contender, its a lil bit weird but catchy af, amazing production not to mention charli xcx had something to do with it I'm sure so this should have been a sure fire hit :( not to worry tho Ben, I love it and that's all that really matters at the end of the day :angel:
May 20, 20196 yr I have all of the medal positions now omg thank you guys so much! :heart: :heart: Really glad to see Bhangra, Greenfroze and especially Thelonia make it to the top 10! TARO Bell making it to the top 20 like their last qualifier is also really nice to see! Mosquetania deserved better </3
May 20, 20196 yr Poor Iz, he'll be tearing his hair out when he reads this in the morning, but I can't begrudge Oslol either, I always suspected it would end that way and it was a pretty damn great example of its genre and miles better than their last winner, congrats ducky! Am slightly disappointed with my placing, honestly thought this one might do better after it qualified after me initially thinking it was too niche to get through :( Thanks nonetheless for the points, especially Iz, Bre and Frank amongst others. Shame to see so many of my favourites just miss the top 10 after them looking pretty firmly in them for the results, but that's the nature of the jury I guess. Thank you Dan and Thanos for the great hosting, perfectly balanced, as all things should be~
May 20, 20196 yr And yes, thanks very much to Dan for doing a great job presenting the results, loved the scoreboard!
May 20, 20196 yr Pretty solid top 10 there with 6 of my votes present (+ the commerisation for Thelonia) but speaking of which FINALLY Thelonia has a top 10 :cheer: SEE good things happen to fellow members in the dancebloc kingdom (much like when Ethanola won). BUT it should have been with their previous entry first! Shoutout to Greenfroze as well, one of the best pop songs I've discovered from this contest. And surely the shock of the contest is Bhangra in 5th? I wouldn't have called that anywhere near the top 10, am I right in thinking a previous MARUV entry flopped horribly despite sounding more wide-appealing (probs not tbh) What else, well Jellyhead missing top 10 is a bit of a shock & that is far far too low for Offer Nissim :'(
May 20, 20196 yr Seyetana contracting that Chez Wombat brand bridesmaid disease it seems Indeed that's no golds yet two silver medals and a bronze for us both now, guys...:/
May 20, 20196 yr Author Semi final one Aeroche win yet another semi-final, and I can now reveal it was Bøtanikkä who won the tiebreak over Florina. St. Burbia also finish a lot higher here than they did in the final surprisingly and Elëdan really were lucky to make it through with their deduction, they'd have been 5th otherwise.
May 20, 20196 yr Well I ended up next to my 18 so I can’t sniff at that *.* this is the third time I’ve finished 24th, how random! Thanks for hosting, Dan - you did great!
May 20, 20196 yr Unovia only came 11th in the semi?? I was convinced that was going to dominate the semi and then probably do worse in the final!
