Oh no I thought Mia Wray was going to appeal, doesn't sound too dissimilar to the CMAT track that came top five a couple years ago to me! Fingers crossed for a qualification x

I personally hope Mia Wray makes it - and I’m not just saying that cos I’ve sent her before (I’ve even considered sending her a 2nd time)

I’m preparing to start my Q streak over with these predictions. At least I broke my previous record and my Q percentage in my 21st-40th comps will be ridiculously better than my first 20

Tbh you were both firmly in the "definitely could qualify but we can't actually have 27 qualifiers" camp!

I have to agree with Patrick about Mia Wray, thought it was really, really lovely and just feel like that sort of thing could do well on the right day!

The vast majority of these very much could go either way, there's only a few that scream QUALIFIER!!!1! ahead of any others in this semi. Out of my listed DNQ's there's only my entry (which I won't delude myself into hope for!) and one other that stands no realistic chance... I think I'm classier than singling out who that is 🤣 (I only call out songs based on my own opinions, though I won't be voting for that song either way lol)

I was relieved not to see my name in red for once only to realise it wasn't in green either.

I'm just as confused by your predictions too!

Your entry just depends on qualification. If you can qualify, you're plain-sailing to a SMASH, imo! I feel a lot of your core voters/the voters who would get behind your entry big (enough) are in the other semi! So we shall see! I'm going to say you are qualifying though!

Whoever can guess the exact points for 21st place in SF1/SF2 can have their results revealed first

45 / 43

50/40

That second semi will be tight

I feel like being a bit of a contrarian.

SF1 21st - 49pts

SF2 21st - 51pts

I'd love to know where I'm getting 50+ points from if these predictions so far are correct!

Agree we could see a big points split in SF2.

I'm predicting fewer points than there are minutes in Fizheuer Zieheuer.

48 / 47

54 / 48

My votes will be with you shortly
