I'm glad we have a good while to vote.....I've got a list of 5 songs from each Final and so far the songs I added are the songs I know I love, but now I'll need to rewatch loads of videos to see if they're worthy of getting in my top 5. It's gonna take me ages :P

Voting is now officially open on this! :yahoo: Obviously you can't nominate Mdice for the tenth contest :P All winners and Cascadia's entry for BJSC V are ineligible for nomination, but nominations are now open, so send them to me via PM and nomination results will be announced two weeks after BJSC XI! :w00t:

Looking back on something you said in the previous page, maybe it would be a good idea to split participating countries in half to vote in each semi-final. 40 songs is alot.

 

Will one semi have contests 1-5 and the other 6-10 or something?

:w00t:

 

Dates for Will You Remember The Winner Tomorrow? will be announced shortly after Mdice confirms the BJSCVI dates.

 

:cheer:

 

Ashton officially invites all countries to the contest.

 

SF1 shall be held in Raethtrekkji on Ashton's Island territory at the historic Mithsdica Theatre.

 

SF2 shall be held in Holdvale in Midthan region of the mainland in the Fotherington Hall (Holdvale Conference and Exhibition Centre)

 

The Live Final will be in the capital city, Morpeth Cove, in the newly finished Sugatorium (Ashton International Concert Centre)

The semis will be drawn randomly I think :o

Then....what's the point of having two? *oh how I wish there was a confused smiley*

No, i think it'll be done entirely by random.

 

Countries will be allocated a Semi to vote in, The Results of which will be announced one after the other. (Not exact positions etc, but qualifiers.) If an Odd number of countries expresses interest in WYRTWT Ashton will vote in both Semi's.

 

imagine if one country ends up with 5 entries and they all end up in the same semi :rofl:

 

which Kopecka entry is your favourite :o

I'm wondering how the voting for the semi and the final will work. I assume we still wont be able to vote for ourselves even if we have more than one entry in the final/semi final?

Then....what's the point of having two? *oh how I wish there was a confused smiley*

Would you rather have a 50 song final?

 

it would be fairer to have 2 semi's of 20 and have 10 qualifiers in a 30 song megafinal

I thought it would be interesting to be able to vote for your own entries, like Congratulations, if you felt like it, since some countries would have more entries than others, but I can understand the argument for not doing that.

 

By the way, I do have faith in this competition working, in case anybody may have thought otherwise due to my over-analytical brain.

Lmao, i think i might run the randomiser again :lol:

You won't be able to vote for your own entry.

 

The semi will run just like a normal BJSC semi, with some countries have no/multiple entries

No I just meant if they are completely random then why not just have one semi-final.

 

But the songs are in easier to digest chunks if we have two semi-finals I appreciate that. I just thought if we were to have two then why not divide the actual contests into two semi finals. It would ensure all eras are equally represented instead of having the inevitable bias toward last contests.

that's a good point.

 

i'll have a think when Trashley gives me the entry list. Coz if one country has a song in the top5 for every contest from 1-5 then i'll probably randomise it

that's a good point.

Fair enough that sounds reasonable I suppose.

Any bets on what country will be represented the most in this??

 

It has to be Rontvia surely!

or Kopecka.

 

I think Kopecka, FSR Rontiva, Mdice, Bhangra and quite possibly Simondly & Ashton will be reasonably well represented.

 

Mdice already have a head start with 3 auto qualifiers

Any bets on what country will be represented the most in this??

 

It has to be Rontvia surely!

By the way, do you think it actually matters if I reveal how certain countries are doing nomination-wise, but not position-wise? :o

Mdice could well see about 6 or 7 entries in this I reckon :cheer:

i dunno, if people see that certain songs have basically qualified they may be less likely to vote for the songs that aren't doing as well.

 

 

:kink: you can pm all the inside scoop if you can't keep it to yourself lol :lol:
