Posted June 18, 20214 yr :hi: sorry it's a little late in the day (blame our very eventful 0-0 football match just now x) but imminently time for the results of Andra Chansen ~ (I'll be doing this live #wellprepared so I will be finding out at the same time as everyone else who our qualifiers are!)
June 18, 20214 yr Author Thanks to all 12 AC participants and 12 other countries for submitting your rankings - let us first look at how the AC participants have ranked our first two duels... Duel 1 Elëdan vs. New Lexico On #teamelëdan we have... JADAKISSNIA NICELAND OJNOJ SKALL SOVARASMA Meaning that on #teamnewlexico it's... COR LUPUS HENDINIA MULGRACIA POPHUB RÉPUBLIQUE D'ÁSKORZA Starting off with a 5-5 draw (which is already making me nervous that we could end up with ties that I am not sure how to break :kink:), the non-AC participants will decide the winner here. ~ Duel 2 Sovarasma vs. Jadakissnia #teamsovarasma takes... COR LUPUS HENDINIA NEW LEXICO So it's this lot on #teamjadakissnia... ELËDAN MULGRACIA NICELAND OJNOJ POPHUB RÉPUBLIQUE D'ÁSKORZA SKALL Jadakissnia take it 7-3, meaning Sovarasma will need to win the non-AC participants by at least 9-3 to make the comeback and remain in the running.
June 18, 20214 yr Author Next let's see how our AC nations have judged duels 3 and 4... Duel 3 Ojnoj vs. Cor Lupus Representing #teamojnoj are... MULGRACIA NEW LEXICO NICELAND SKALL Leaving #teamcorlupus as... ELËDAN HENDINIA JADAKISSNIA POPHUB RÉPUBLIQUE D'ÁSKORZA SOVARASMA A 6-4 lead for Cor Lupus, Ojnoj will need an 8-4 win or better among the non-AC participants to win the duel. ~ Duel 4 Hendinia vs. République d'Áskorza On #teamhendinia it's... MULGRACIA OJNOJ And on #teamáskorza we have... COR LUPUS ELËDAN JADAKISSNIA NEW LEXICO NICELAND POPHUB SKALL SOVARASMA Our most lopsided result so far with République d'Áskorza taking it 8-2, Hendinia need a miracle 10-2 victory or better among non-AC nations to make the comeback.
June 18, 20214 yr Author And here is how our AC nations have rated our last pair of duels... Duel 5 Niceland vs. Skall On #teamniceland... POPHUB SOVARASMA And on #teamskall... COR LUPUS ELËDAN HENDINIA JADAKISSNIA MULGRACIA NEW LEXICO OJNOJ RÉPUBLIQUE D'ÁSKORZA Another walkover with an 8-2 win for Skall, so Niceland will also need a 10-2 or better result from the remaining voters to get back in it. ~ Duel 6 Mulgracia vs. POPHub Supporting #teammulgracia are... COR LUPUS ELËDAN Leaving #teampophub as... HENDINIA JADAKISSNIA NEW LEXICO NICELAND OJNOJ RÉPUBLIQUE D'ÁSKORZA SKALL SOVARASMA And it's three 8-2 drubbings in a row leaving Mulgracia as another underdog needing a 10-2 result to get back in. Over to the remaining votes for Duels 1 & 2 to decide their winners next.
June 18, 20214 yr Author Duel 1 Elëdan vs. New Lexico With these two currently tied at 5-5, whoever wins amongst the remaining 12 voters wins the duel. Unless it's a tie. On #teamelëdan... BØTANIKKÄ KATHALDAZIA LAND OF DW PERSEPHONIA SÉYETANA TERRA LOBSTER And on #teamnewlexico... CAERFYRDDIA DANÆVIIA DOBAGO FSR RONTVIA HARMONICA ZAMINTON ...well this is a little awkward, it is the exact 5-5 / 10-10 that I was fearing :kink: Making the executive decision that a sensible tiebreak will be the average position that the AC participants ranked these two songs in (excluding the rankings of Elëdan and New Lexico themselves). Elëdan's average rank was 7.9 New Lexico's average rank was 5.9 Thus declaring the winner of this duel to be New Lexico, who will face the winner from duel 2 (which thankfully won't have to go to a tiebreak). Speaking of which... ~ Duel 2 Sovarasma vs. Jadakissnia Sovarasma need at least 9 votes to take the duel, can they do it? Going to #teamsovarasma are... HARMONICA KATHALDAZIA SÉYETANA ZAMINTON And #teamjadakissnia take... BØTANIKKÄ CAERFYRDDIA DANÆVIIA DOBAGO FSR RONTVIA LAND OF DW PERSEPHONIA TERRA LOBSTER Not particularly close as Jadakissnia take a similarly large victory here, winning the duel by 13.67 to 6.33 overall setting up a New Lexico vs. Jadakissnia fight for one of the last three qualification slots.
June 18, 20214 yr This is… unsurprising x I am so glad you took this AC business, Bra, cos I’m like …whut? But also knew I was stuffed against Ashton as soon as I saw that duel :lol:
June 18, 20214 yr Author Duel 3 Ojnoj vs. Cor Lupus Ojnoj can overcome their current deficit if they win 8 votes here. Will it happen? On #teamojnoj... FSR RONTVIA HARMONICA PERSEPHONIA TERRA LOBSTER And on #teamcorlupus... BØTANIKKÄ CAERFYRDDIA DANÆVIIA DOBAGO KATHALDAZIA LAND OF DW SÉYETANA ZAMINTON The non-AC nations are agreeing with the AC ones again and Cor Lupus take the duel by a margin of 12.67 to 7.33, and will face the winner of duel 4... ~ Duel 4 Hendinia vs. République d'Áskorza Our last 3 duels all face a large uphill climb for the underdog but it's not over until it's all counted. Can Hendinia pick up the 10 votes they need to stay in? Representing #teamhendinia... BØTANIKKÄ FSR RONTVIA HARMONICA And #teamáskorza... CAERFYRDDIA DANÆVIIA DOBAGO KATHALDAZIA LAND OF DW PERSEPHONIA SÉYETANA TERRA LOBSTER ZAMINTON Once again not even close to a comeback, République d'Áskorza are easy victors by a 15.5 to 4.5 margin so it's Cor Lupus vs. République d'Áskorza for our penultimate qualification slot.
June 18, 20214 yr Author Duel 5 Niceland vs. Skall Niceland also need 10 votes here to remain in the running. On #teamniceland... BØTANIKKÄ DOBAGO HARMONICA LAND OF DW PERSEPHONIA And on #teamskall... CAERFYRDDIA DANÆVIIA FSR RONTVIA KATHALDAZIA SÉYETANA TERRA LOBSTER ZAMINTON It is a less lopsided showing for Niceland but still nowhere near what they needed, Skall take a 13.83 to 6.17 victory and will face the winner of the final duel... ~ Duel 6 Mulgracia vs. POPHub One more chance for a miracle comeback, Mulgracia again need 10 votes, can they do it? Going to #teammulgracia... BØTANIKKÄ DANÆVIIA DOBAGO FSR RONTVIA HARMONICA PERSEPHONIA SÉYETANA TERRA LOBSTER ZAMINTON And to #teampophub... CAERFYRDDIA KATHALDAZIA LAND OF DW It's agonisingly close as the non-AC participants are nearly as pro-Mulgracia as the AC ones were pro-POPHub but alas Mulgracia are a vote short, POPHub win by a 10.5 to 9.5 margin meaning our final qualification battle is Skall vs. POPHub.
June 18, 20214 yr I imagine Republique d’Askorza were very unfortunate not to advance to the final in the first place, probably the most certain qualifier of AC? And a very good song at that, so congrats Phil! Glad I now know it wasn’t a mistake not to send NEIMY to the main contest either, I don’t think it would’ve done much better than Moistbreezy or Essy.
June 18, 20214 yr Author We return to our AC participants' judgements for the three qualification duels... Qualification Duel 1 New Lexico vs. Jadakissnia On #teamnewlexico we have... COR LUPUS HENDINIA MULGRACIA While going to #teamjadakissnia are... ELËDAN NICELAND OJNOJ POPHUB RÉPUBLIQUE D'ÁSKORZA SKALL SOVARASMA Jadakissnia take a 7-3 lead as they did in their original duel making them a favourite to go through to the final but there's still time for the non-AC nations to save New Lexico if they can win their votes 9-3 or more.
