May 1, 20223 yr Ooo botanikka makes sense but I was thinking it was aeroche so glad to be proven wrong!! Congrats cody and great hosting lindsey. Had to seen that Nico Santos song after i heard it in another contest...no brainer but I did consider the Alavro Soler/Nico Santos collab but I didnt want to be extra :lol:
May 1, 20223 yr Ayy well done Cody! I still can’t believe that SCALPING never qualified the first time around! Glad to see it get to high here.
May 1, 20223 yr Ah, well, really good to see Séyetana doing well this time around - 4th is great for nanobii (a good followup to the win, proving that Séyetana is a gold mine in this spinoff x) and great choice Ansel, I thought it'd have a good chance at doing well here. SCALPING second is excellent and Faouzia winning is still good, she's a good singer. Shame I ended up last not including the Retrobot, I did think I picked the best possible one I found for Sovarasma (I looked at other promis3 songs and thought they were less brilliant than this, and most of the other Sovarasma artists that had appealed to me in the past too) and positive comments had me a bit more confident. Sovarasma was certainly a choice much more aligned with my tastes than the other picks I've gotten for Masquerade but stilll... I guess it's not that instant but man, I'm not having much luck with appealing to people lately. Thanks for running this so well Lindsey, it's been great to do another Masquerade and you ran it together well.
May 2, 20223 yr Puppet is a great winner, definitely my fave of the contenders! Happy that my top 3 all made the top 20 as well. Ah so it was Quintessa who picked Ben Hazlewood :o I wondered if it was a country who was participating back in 2015 or not, turns out it was. Great choice Leo!! I'm so sorry I'm reading this late and just now noticing errors, the spreadsheet shows Dobago giving 12 to Danaeviia and also 12 to Harmonica, but their text votes show 12 to Danaeviia and 0 to Harmonica. Also Botanikka's text votes gave 6 points to Harmonica but on the spreadsheet they gave 6 points to Summericia.
May 2, 20223 yr Well gee, that was a bad time to be trapped in work! :drama: My first spin-off medal (let alone win) after struggling to get into the top 5 for 5 years and peaking outside the top 3 several times after! Guess I can’t say that I’m bad at this anymore (unless that was a fluke, but it’s too early to tell :D) Thanks so much for supporting Faouzia again! Amazing top 10 overall, I think I pointed almost every song there? Good going since I was pretty nervous for some of my faves :D I’ve been looking through who masqueraded as who and now that I think about it a lot of these make sense, I pretty much clicked Aquafina as Zanmatony as both the current and previous entry were reminiscent of 2015 Aquafina :P Flynnonda as Rd’A, Rolloland as Flj and Beaver as Persephonia also felt like gimmes. I think the biggest surprise for me would be Dobbo pulling that off for Trifoski, it’s one of the better Dobago entries as of late despite it being indie/alternative! (Although now that I think about it, Dobago surprising us with a different genre shouldn’t be surprising considering they sent Latto at one point… hmmm)
May 2, 20223 yr Author Yea I'm literally at the airport about to board a flight to Paris in 20 mins so I wont be around for the week really. I've used the sum formula for all the votes so if there are any errors it's come from people inputting them wrong on the form, I did try to check everything but I was having to rush. I'm sure when Bray clocks the thread he'll have his own sheets so can possibly verify x
May 2, 20223 yr Ahh well guess it’s a good thing I got semi-vetoed with Discoteka last month then 😅 Interesting that Flynnonda got Rd‘Á! A Nico track makes perfect sense there, also why nothing from his Santos side project was sent - as I thought I had when I saw Nico was that it would have been a perfect chance to send something of his that he’s sung in German. Overall happy with the track and it’s done alright! Thanks Linds for organising all of this and hosting everything so well!!
May 2, 20223 yr Excellent hosting, Linds! Pleasing set of results, didn't vote for the winner but did for 8 of the top 10 and nothing I voted for ended up near the bottom. Mosquetania was a tougher ask than most would have been, safe to say our tastes in BJSC haven't often aligned, MOS > UTO points have only happened once from 14 possible times and UTO > MOS once from 12. The only song I already knew and liked when looking at the list of potential artists was which I couldn't send as both Alex Metric and TCTS have represented Utopia! So I had to do some digging and whilst I didn't want to go with the most obvious choice of the only act I've voted for, I did really like Aftur Og Aftur.
May 2, 20223 yr Amazing result for both Bøtanikkä and Flynnonda. I instantly thought Jafet could be behind GusGus and I wasn’t wrong. And also I never thought Peggy Gou would be considered ‘cheap’ considering she only appeared once in contest and finished outside Top 10!!!

This is the song I had originally confirmed for you, albeit the Chambray Remix, but ultimately decided to change as I wasn't keen on sending a former winner of somebody else's to represent you. Brilliant track though and a nice touch that two of your artists were on it. Edited May 2, 20223 yr by gooddelta

It seems that the Google form that she used may have calculated the results a slightly off, and so I spent some time early this evening to enter all of the quoted votes from each participating nation and seeing what the final scoreboard looked like, and this is what I was presented with; 1. (237 Points) Faouzia – Puppet [st. Burbia] 2. (207 Points) SCALPING – Chamber [Wholune] 3. (206 Points) Prospa + KETTAMA – Close Your Eyes [Dobago] 4. (185 Points) Peggy Gou – I Go [Flynnonda] 5. (182 Points) Rina Sawayama – Comme des Garçons [Cor Lupus] 6. (181 Points) Kite – Hand Out The Drugs [Trifoski] 7. (179 Points) nanobii – Rainbow Road [séyetana] 8. (176 Points) Juche – MPH [Aeroche] 9. (161 Points) Vukovi – Kill It [Taahino] 10. (160 Points) New Order – Bizarre Love Triangle (Extended Dance Mix) [Fljotavik] 11. (156 Points) GusGus – Within You [bøtanikkä] 12. (152 Points) Gareth Emery – Calling Home ft Sarah de Warren [Danaeviia] 13. (129 Points) PPJ – Neném [utopia] 14. (128 Points) MODERNS – Terrestrial [Rolloland] 15. (128 Points) Kintra – Dark Adaptation [Aquafina] 16. (125 Points) W O L F C L UB – Just Drive ft. Summer Haze [Altyr Muunilinst] 17. (122 Points) Ben Hazlewood – Paint Me Black (ft. Mali Koa Hood) [Harmonica] 18. (119 Points) UFO95 & Anetha – On/Offline [Kathaldazia] 19. (110 Points) Highasakite – Mother [Terra Avium] 20. (107 Points) Amber Van Day – Kids In The Corner [Hushkanukia] 21. (106 Points) TAL – D.A.O.W [Quintessa] 22. (104 Points) Mareux – Summertime [Pestolia] 23. (99 Points) Ben Böhmer – Purple Line [Kluminican Rep] 24. (93 Points) Marit Larsen – I Don't Want To Talk About It [Tinnmark] 25. (91 Points) Nico Santos – Too Late To Love [Rep d'Askorza] 26. (90 Points) BÖ – Aura [Jadakissnia] 27. (89 Points) Pixie Paris – Cabriolet [FSR Rontvia] 28. (81 Points) Kent – La Belle Epoque [Land of DW] 29. (79 Points) The HU – Song of Women (feat. Lzzy Hale) [beaverdonia] 30. (74 Points) BYRTA – Aftur Og Aftur [Mosquetania] 31. (64 Points) Inna – Diskotka ft. Minelli [Jupiterdonia] 32. (62 Points) Genevieve – My Real Name [summericia] 33. (59 Points) M4SONIC + Indy Stanton – Addicted To You [Zanmatony] 34. (58 Points) Helene Bøksle and Sindre Hotvedt – Vegvisir [sovarasma] 35. (41 Points) The Retrobot – Chocolate Bot [Persephonia] The winner is the same, indeed the Top 3 remains unchanged, but there are a number of adjustments to some positions that follow; Flynnonda finished one position higher in 4th with the same number of points in Lindsey's scoreboard because the total points for Séyetana was 179, moving them down to 7th. Cor Lupus & Trifoski also benefit from the recalculation to Séyetana's points, each climbing one position. Possibly due to the duplication of Danæviia in the Google form, they actually achieved a total of 152 points from 18 voters, including 2 18's and 1 15. They finish in a much more respectable position of 12th (instead of 27 as originally stated). Utopia finished with 129 points moving them into 13th place. Harmonica's total points is slightly less with a final score of 122, finishing in 17th. Terra Avium's total points is slightly less with a final score of 110, finishing in 19th. Summericia's total points is slightly less with a final score of 62, finishing in 32nd. As far as I can tell, all other participating nations have the correct final scores as posted by Lindsey yesterday. Of course, I implore one of the BJSC mods to verify this revision to ensure accuracy. Thanks!
May 2, 20223 yr I should have just got Wardy to do the results yesterday :kink: I have a permanent hosting ban remember. :kink:
May 3, 20223 yr (Although now that I think about it, Dobago surprising us with a different genre shouldn’t be surprising considering they sent Latto at one point… hmmm)[/size] WOAH hold up, Mulatto is Latto? This calls for a national celebration as that's the first ever Dobago entrant to have a subsequent UK hit :D Anyway many congrats Cody! That's the best pop entry I've heard entered into any contest for a long time. Excellent to see Dobago back in the top 3 *_* (uhsting you may pick my next main entry please and thanks :)) an absolute peach of a find :heart: Thanks for all the Kite votes! It's a superb song and glad no one saw that coming it would me behind it :kink: 4 of my top 6 finishing in the top 8 - that's unusual so hooray for great results on the whole. A big thanks to Lindsey for initiating & running what's definifely become my fave spin-off series. EXCEPT!!!!! Dobago as Trifoski QUOTE 18: Persephonia _ The Retrobot _Chocolate Bot The TASTE from Dobago :cheeseblock: Chocolate Bot was by FAR the best sang, and its lyric, chocolate that's been liked by dogs, proves it. I wish I could have voted for it, shown ma taste!!! YOU ARE RIGHT TBH! What a DISGRACE such an incredible entry finished last, I'm aghast :angry:
