No problem. This is what it probably was like last year with being called in on video form. Though it's more nerve-wracking because there aren't any differences visually until the actual "QUALIFIED" or "DID NOT QUALIFY" screen. 🥲

Oh no, I failed Kerth, if only I gave ha 10 points instead of 8 😭

Yay at qualifying though

Aw no!!!!!! Well I got to see Hilary duff tonight and she was amazing so there is that! It makes it a bit more manageable. Had to leave before what dreams are made of though, because of train times. Gutting.

Edit: why must I be treated this way on my return! 🙄🤯😛

@Bror you voted for my songs and it did not qualify. Don't ever vote for me again 🤣🤣

If I’m seeing this right, three countries I voted for didn’t make it through: Pestolia, Kluminican R. and Taahino

The expected countries (mostly) voted for me! I had hoped for some othe votes but I do at least understand! Thank you everyone that gave me points 🥰🥰🥰

Also Mulgracia just missed out on one point from me. Shame to see that go, as well as the three songs that I pointed (Taahino, Beaverdonia and République d'Áskorza)

Welppp, 11 votes and still not even remotely close to making it. see y'all in november (unless I manage to vote while on vacation)

* Bøtanikkä's mid-contest withdrawal from BJSC 180 is not counted as a DNQ for the purposes of this list

We do lose one of our 2+ year long streaks this month as Kluminican Republic fall short to end their national record streak of 22, although that was the shortest of the 6 such streaks so the top 5 remains unchanged: Hendinia's bulletproof record run goes onto 68 (73 in non-consecutive contests), Aeroche stay 2nd on 33, Danæviia are still bronze and expand their national record to 30 now making it the whole top 3 with at least 3 unbroken years of qualifiers (they become the 6th country ever to achieve 30 qualifiers in a row, matching Cumulonimbia's record of 30 and only beaten by Hendinia, FSR Rontvia (42), Aeroche (36) and Cor Lupus (33)), Neliönoir in 4th expand their record to 25 and Cor Lupus stay 5th. As Fljótavík move up to 6th they also match their national record of 13 qualifiers in a row, previously achieved in BJSCs 111-123. The Spodic Empire and Freidland further expand their current records to 11 and 7 respectively with the latter now moving into the top 10 of this list. Below the top 10, Herbilore and New Helvetica extend their current records to 4 and 3 respectively (the latter still with a 100% qualification record to date). Lentyll make it to 3 in a row again matching their previous record set in BJSCs 182-185 and Vaskla make it onto the board for the first time after DNQing with their first two entries, kicking off of course with a new 'record' of 1.

Thrilled to go through but gutted to lose both Juranabaijan and Taahino, thank you for the discoveries

Out of semi 2 gutted to see Deandria,  Kathaldazia and Bronzil go I liked their tracks a lot

I'm so sorry for saying the same thing every time but I caaaaan't believe I qualified!! Semi 1 was so strong and pop-heavy so that's a pretty big deal to make it through, thanks for the points!

Definitely had more than 10 I wanted to vote for, very sad for 4 of my 10 that didn't make it (Taahino, RdA, Aesthetica, Petsolia - hope Feeble Little Horse can qualify one day with a different song). Plenty of open space in my final votes so hopefully Semi 2 delivers. Thanks Iz for hosting so far and blacksquare for the videos!

oops, 29 is actually higher than i expected!

thanks @Iz様 🌟 @AllStarBySmashMouth @Julian_ @Freeze @FrankLuck for the points!

Damn, I lost both my 12 and my 8! Gutted for Kath but did think its chances were a bit borderline, and borderline it was with one point in it!

Well I did lost quite few of them, especially Semi 2 ;(

Surprised at Mulgracia and Yehesi not making it, both mega bops

I have lost 3 songs and my biggest discovery of Semi-1:

12 Q

10 Q

08 Mulgracia: Thunder Bae - Gay Alice In Wonderland

07 Q

06 Q

05 Q

04 Juranabaijan: Michele - Vie D'Uscita

03 Q

02 Q

01 Aesthetica: KiiKii - Candy Pink Magic Hole Flip Phone

Never thought that Thunder Bae would not qualify with this song.

omg aesthetica didn’t make it through? 😿

also glad i was very wrong about some of my predictions then ! sad to see dobago and pagasa out still
