w00t. Offer individual odds for both semis on qualification or go the whole hog ;o

 

The number on the left is the amount of times a country might be expected to NOT qualify/win (depending on what odds you're offering) in relation to the number on the right. So, for example:

 

3/1 = For every three times that a country with these odds doesn't win/qualify, they will win/qualify once.

5/2 = For every five times that a country with these odds doesn't win/qualify, they will win/qualify twice.

2/3 = For every two times that a country with these odds doesn't win/qualify, they will win/qualify three times.

 

Odds that have a larger number on the right than the left indicate that there is a greater chance of the song qualifying/winning than not.

 

For odds that don't have 1 on the right, divide the number on the left by them to get their /1 value - so, for example, 5/2 is actually a clean way of saying 2.5/1, etc.

 

These can also be read as percentages - add the two numbers together and divide 100 by the resulting number. Then multiply the number you get by the number on the right and you will get the percentage chance of qualification/victory. So, for example:

 

10/3 = 13. 100 divided by 13 = 0.77. Multiplied by three you get 2.31. This song therefore has a 23% chance of victory/qualification.

 

Take note that there are 13 qualifiers from each semi final. It therefore follows that at least 10 or so songs will have odds where they have a greater chance of qualifying than not, unless it is a very close/hard to call semi!

qualify lol

So you don't think any of them have more chance of qualifying than not qualifying then? :P

Who's entering Jai Ho!? That's well cheap. :lol:.

Scherzland. They've said they don't care :lol:

Who's entering Jai Ho!? That's well cheap. :lol:.

No Offence but it says something when USR labels it cheap.

 

Seeing as you have previously been the king of Cheap

Exactly, it does say a lot about how cheap Jai Ho is :P

 

Hmm, I don't see either Mykanovia or Rontvia winning it - Empire of the Sun is a bit old and mildly cheap by now, its biggest fans will be a bit bored of it. Rontvia's is hard to call but it's rare for pre-qualifiers to come top five...

All I will say is that I think Little Boots - Mathematics will come Top 15 in the final...Little Boots always does reasonably well...so its a safe bet.

I do hope Mathematics does well, but will be annoyed if it beats 11th...

I was thinking who the F is this 'Tronjan Horse' person! :heehee: Finally a name change! -_-

 

Will do my odds laterz ;D

'Jai Ho' better not recieve a backlash! It deserves to go through IMO. Who cares if it's "cheap"? At least we aren't absoloutely bombarded with "cheap" entries this time!

Seconded. Exactly my thoughts.

If i knew the PCD version would be entered I'd have entered Jai Ho myself (the original one OF COURSE) -_-
