:hi:

 

Whilst we wait for another contest to get underway, let's take a moment to quiz ourselves on some BJSC facts and stats. I've come up with twelve questions to have a go at, and I invite as many as possible to take part in answering the questions, looking for what might be the most popular answer to be given for each question.

 

So let's begin, here are the questions;

 

1. A winning entry sent by Aeroche

 

2. A nation whose name contains "land" in the title

 

3. A "shock" DNQ from 2023 or 2024

 

4. A nation whose flag contains the colour red

 

5. An artist who has been entered 4 or more times to BJSC

 

6. A host nation who has impressed with their presentation skills

 

7. A top 10 finishing entry sent by Cor Lupus

 

8. A nation from the continent of Hasbeenalia

 

9. A criteria from the veto framework that scores 10 or more penalty points

 

10. A former champion of the Year-To Date (YTD) chart

 

11. A winning entry that connected with the majority of participants

 

12. A nation who made their BJSC debut in 2024

Send your answers to me, awardinary, via PM by the deadline which is Sunday 13th October 2024 at 23:59 GMT.

 

Good luck! ^_^

Aeroche were the subject of our first question, and there have been many fine winning entries by this nation over the years. Many of you concluded that the most recent victory from BJSC 168 would be the most recalled, and you would be right, with 7 participants naming Active Child as the most guessed. aamourocean was the second most guessed winning entry by Aeroche, which Aeroche themselves guessed at! Unfortunately no points for Cheiron or Summericia on this opening question, despite being correct, due to being the only ones to guess their answers.

There are quite a few options for this question, and perhaps if this was a Pointless quiz it might have been a more interesting one, but as a quiz where you have to guess the most popular answer, it was Land of DW that came out on top, with six correct guesses. Niceland were the second most guessed country, and unfortunately no points for the guessers of Aelandor, Hinterlandia, Rolloland or Ultraviolenceland.

Ooh off to a good start :cheer:

This was possibly the most open question as it really did not have any kind of formula to determine what the most popular answer might be, so I left it to chance to see what people suggested, and thankfully a handful did choose songs that scored points, or rather point. Well done to Summericia for getting off the foot of the scoreboard! FSR Rontvia are our new leaders as we go into a break, more answers to come tomorrow! :D

Was about to say what a rubbish start then immediately get one yay. Justice for those robbed NQ'S though.

Last Night On Earth qualified 😭
