...if a flop is defined as either missing the final, or reaching the final but finishing in the bottom half of the scoreboard (e.g. 15th-27th in a 27 song final, or 11th-20th in a twenty song final)

 

FSR Rontvia's hit/flop ratio is...

 

60% Hit (6 out of 10 contests)

40% Flop (4 out of 10 contests)

 

BJSCI: Delta Goodrem - Believe Again (17/24 - Flop)

BJSCII Natasha Bedingfield - Stumble (18/24 - Flop)

BJSCIII: Andreas Johnson - Glorious (8/26 - Hit)

BJSCIV: Sara Bareilles - Love Song (1/20 - Hit)

BJSCV: Sibel - Make Believe (8/24 - Hit)

BJSCVI: Untouched - Smack Me (5/29 - Hit)

BJSCVII: Maria Haukaas Storeng/Mira Craig - Mine All Mine (3/27 - Hit)

BJSCIII: Thermostatic - Driving (19/27 - Flop)

BJSCIX: Sanna Nielsen - Nobody Without You (4/26 - Hit)

BJSCX: Mira Craig - Headhunted (DNQ - Flop)

 

it seems I either do extremely well with a top 5/10 finish, or completely crash and burn at the bottom of the scoreboard :heehee: no midtable results to speak of :o

I could have sworn you'd flopped more :heehee: The Modern came 11th out of 20 though, so bottom half :kink:

BJSC 3 (23/26 - The Shortwave Set 'Casual Use' - 16 pts) - FLOP

BJSC 4 (02/20 - The Pipettes 'Pull Shapes' - 93 pts) - HIT

BJSC 5 (13/24 - Operator Please 'Just A Song About Ping Pong' - 47 pts) - GOOD ENOUGH

5 flops, 1 hit and 1 I was reasonably pleased with. I'm overdue a decent finish with 'Embrace' :(

 

I can't believe Hot Puppies missed the final, and Ida coming 23rd out of 27 was a crime too -_- I had wanted The Pipettes to come 2nd (after Sara) so I was very happy at the BJSC4 result...I seem to recall giving my 12 points to Pull Shapes actually...

BJSC VI - (1/29 Beverley Knight 'Black Butta' 114 pts.) - HIT

BJSC VII - (24/27 Estelle 'No Substitute Love' 54 pts.) - FLOP

BJSC VIII - (16/27 Sara Bareilles 'Fairytale' 58 pts.) - FLOP

BJSC IX - (11/26 Santogold 'You'll Find A Way' 101 pts.) - HIT

BJSC X - (4/27 M.I.A. 'Jimmy' 146 pts.) - HIT

 

So it's 60/40 so far.

Im 70%Hit, 30%Flop

 

I think i was due a flop this time after my nice little run of hits.

I could have sworn you'd flopped more :heehee: The Modern came 11th out of 20 though, so bottom half :kink:

He did Kat DeLuna came 15th and flopped. More countries gave points to Red Blooded Women :kink:

that list reminds me of what great entries Ashton have had, the only one I don't think I considered voting for was Sugababes' Hole In The Head...was this a live performance too or am I imagining that?

Yeah it was.

 

it was a professionally filmed one.

 

 

and thank you. i think since love song i have only not given Rontiva points twice :wub:

yeah, I seem to recall it being quite a good performance, the only reason I didn't give it points was because I don't really like Hole In The Head :heehee:

 

my next entry will have no hype or self promotion, I'm just going to send it and see what people think :D

 

then again, I did massively hype up Smack Me! back in the day and that did alright :heehee:

i think that worked well for you.

 

That contest everyone (well some of us) got very serious about the green room :kink:

BJSCV had promo tours galore :heehee: and the big Serebro/Untouched love in...I couldn't actually believe it when Smack Me finished top 5 and Opium only came 9th, I was almost certain that the latter was going to win

i wasn't convinced, although i think it got reasonable points from me :kink:

it got the full 12 from me, I love it :heart: and I seem to recall Smack Me! got 12 from Kopecka, and it made No.2 in Trashley's chart :heehee: I wasn't quite so generous with Opium, it got to No.13 in my chart...

 

the highest a song has got in my chart based purely on me hearing it in this contest is No.5 for Will You Remember Me Tomorrow :wub:

wow.

 

where did Colour Me Dirty reach?

#48/49 I think...but I think that was in a particularly competitive time in my chart

not bad, not bad.

 

oh did you check out Colour Me Pjanoo?

no, but I will do now, I was meant to do that earlier :heehee:
