October 25, 20213 yr Author Thanks for sticking with me! I took my sweet time with the spreadsheets but did tonight's hosting spontaneously so wasn't sure how to judge it time-wise. 11pm... could've been worse I supppose! Speaking of spreadsheets let's get these out here quickly: I've barely slept so I'm going to get some rest and will have the final thread up tomorrow at some point! but first... semi 1 12 Q 10 Q 08 Q 07 Q 06 Q 05 Q 04 Q 03 Q 02 Q 01 Q !!! semi 2 12 Q 10 Q 08 Q 07.

October 25, 20213 yr Schnuffel bunny supremacy it is That is quite a shame for Vancouver Sleep Clinic, but alas at the end of the day the indie-folk curse has taken all of #terrajadaphonia as victims this year :'( Lost these from my semi 2 ranking: 4th Kluminican Republic 5th Terra Avium 7th Suedeonia 12th Tartford 13th Kylienips 15th Trifoski 16th The Actual Republic of Bellamia 20th Zanmatony 24th Singerpurear Oops at losing more of my top 10 than my bottom 10! Thanks for hosting Jade <3 looking forward to the final ~ ~ Qualification streak update (underlined countries have matched or extended their longest ever Q streak): 19 Hendinia * ~ 16 Aeroche ~ 15 Bøtanikkä ~ 9 FARC 9 St. Burbia ~ 8 Cor Lupus 8 Persephonia ~ 7 Quintessa ~ 6 FSR Rontvia 6 New Lexico ~ 5 Cumulonimbia ~ 4 Aquafina 4 N DNTN 4 Summericia ~ 3 Aesthetica 3 Kathaldazia 3 Thelonia 3 Utopia ~ 2 Altyr Muunilinst 2 Danæviia 2 D'yermak'er 2 Harmonica 2 Hushkanukia 2 Jadakissnia 2 Jupiterdonia 2 République d'Áskorza 2 Séyetana 2 Wholune ~ 1 Aelandor 1 Beaverdonia 1 Chestoria 1 Dobago 1 Fljótavík 1 Lookylion 1 Mosquetania 1 Mulgracia 1 Niceland 1 Republic of Adonia 1 Rolloland 1 Sovarasma 1 Yehesi DEAD 5 Land of DW 5 Terra Avium 3 Trifoski 2 Caerfyrddia 2 Flynnonda 2 Kluminican Republic 2 Oslol 1 (The Actual Republic of) Bellamia 1 Bhangra 1 East Rukahavian 1 Greenfroze 1 Lotunia 1 Sergeistan 1 Tartford * more consecutive entries (24) have qualified but this streak was broken by a break from the contest Extending national records: Bøtanikkä Exceeding national records matched in previous contest: Cumulonimbia Matching previous national records: Kathaldazia (previously achieved in BJSCs 15-17, 68-70 and 129-131) Kathaldazia have a longer run of consecutive entries qualifying not all in consecutive contests (5 qualifiers in a row in BJSCs 75, 124 & 129-131).
October 25, 20213 yr Thanks for hosting Jade! It's been fun following and that is a really low Q threshold for semi-final 1 so I think the winner is probably going to come from semi-final 1? :thinking: Edited October 25, 20213 yr by uhsting
October 25, 20213 yr Naaaw I'm gutted to have lost some of these honestly! But yay for qualifying!! 12 Q 10 Q 08 Q 07 Tartford: Scarlet Fantastic - Make Way For Love 06 Q 05 Singerpurear: Harpo - Moviestar 04 Kylienips: Badflower - Family 03 Q 02 Suedeonia: Wire - Eardrum Buzz 01 Q
October 25, 20213 yr Thanks for all your hard work Jade, we always appreciate the effort it takes to put in the work. ^_^
October 25, 20213 yr Jeez, I thought I'd be out easily, it hurts to be just four points off :cry: Although, I'm happy to see that it got more fans than I thought it would in this semi, it's still a beautiful EP from a great artist, I knew it was a risk to send, but I'm pleased that some of you made a good discovery out of it, here's to Rejects I guess x Lost three from my votes, but none of them are massive losses and all the essentials are through, so hopefully Semi 1 can fill in some gaps.
October 25, 20213 yr 12 Q 10 Q 8 Q 7 Q 6 Q 5 Q 4 Q 3 Q 2 Q 1 Q That's fab but I'm still salty at 13 points for my own entry. </3 The same happened when I sent another grower so I guess I should aim for something a little more instant.
October 25, 20213 yr Yay Anabel through and what a success that everything in my Top 10 and 2 of my 5 commis made it as well :cheer:
October 25, 20213 yr :cry: THANK YOU BJSC THIS IS THE BEST BIRTHDAY PRESENT i wasn't allowing myself to believe, but it worked, it worked! Big shame about Kylienips from my own semi, though that was quite edgy even for my style of rock, and Terra, Zanmatony, Kluminican Republic and Suedeonia, they all made my votes or were very close to it. And unfortunate but not unexpected with Lotunia and Eledan failing, the former would have had my 18 nailed on. Otherwise, I think that is a good and fair qualifier list, thanks Jade
October 25, 20213 yr Also also, this is a stat that I had been keeping track of because I'd been noticing it and it was starting to get real weird, this is the first time I've been in the same final as Aelandor since over a year ago (127) - despite one of us qualifying for (almost) all of the interim ones.
October 25, 20213 yr I've just had a listen to Terra Avium's entry and enjoyed it a lot although I was expecting the three songs to segue into each other. That would certainly have got a big enough score from me to make it qualify for the final. I have a suite of four connected songs that I might enter one day. They only add up to ten minutes combined so wouldn't be too long.
October 25, 20213 yr From my semi Lotunia is the big loss for me, the intro really grabbed me. I thought it would be my 12 based on the first minute but the rest of the song (while still really good) kept it in just below 9/10 territory and 8 points. I still really enjoyed it and wished it had qualified though. With that and Klum out the top end of my points looks wider open than I’d expected it to be.
October 25, 20213 yr I lost just Kylienips. Thought it was Martins strongest rock track since Meg Myers tbh. At least it wasn't far off qualifying but thought it would at least be like top 30 in the final so that's a shame really. Kinda shocked at Klum as well despite not voting for it. Yay at being in and I was fairly confident in that happening. Not sure I can envision it being something BM would send though lol :kink: some fab qualifiers overall!

October 26, 20213 yr Pretty disappointed to see my first ace card getting a NQ, wasn't really a surprise tho. But, damn, only 2 points behind the last Q. :( Thanks for all the voters, especially the +12 from Dobbo, and to Jade for the hosting and making the compilation videos! ^_^ Eastovka's was an improvement from their debut entry but I do have a feeling these hardstyle entries are not really ever going to be much of a winning formula here oops (then again I guess DJ Muscleboy did quite well last month).I think the DJ Muscleboy song is an exception because it's a Roxette cover. :thinking: Unlucky Eastovka! Your time will come soon. ;)We'll bounce back soon, must qualify at least once during our first 5 entries! Zanmatony got robbed again. -_- It was really a good disco song!
October 26, 20213 yr Last in the running order and first to be revealed for Semi 2 *.* Had no idea how 'Still Wondering' would do but it seemed like a very favorable semi. I haven't had back-to-back qualifiers all year until now, so really happy. Only one of my votes DNQing too, that's great but a shame for Badflower.
