    Ada's Eurovision Game 2009 - In Play

    OK everybody......here we go.....

    Please checkout the GAME TABLE below or click HERE to see who's voted for who & your scores.

    Scoring
    The person finishing with the overall highest score will be declared the winner & will win the £15 Amazon Voucher prize...however, if I score the highest, then I win and therefore won't have to shell out any prize money.

    Each person will start with 100 points.
    Points will be added or deducted to/from this score using the following rules:

    i) If you correctly predict the final placing of any of your nominated countries: 10 points will be ADDED to your score.

    ii) If any of your nominated countries finish in their respective Top 5 or Bottom 3 zones but are incorrectly placed within those zones….. 5 points MINUS the difference between the country’s actual placing & your predicted placing will be ADDED to your score….
    For example: If you predict that the UK will finish in 2nd place but they ACTUALLY finish in 4th place…. 5 points (for correctly predicting UK to finish in the Top 5) MINUS the difference between their actual placing (4) and predicted placing (2) …………… 5-(4-2) = 3 points will be added to your score.

    iii) If any of your nominated countries fail to finish in their respective Top 5 or Bottom 3 zones, the difference between the country’s actual placing & your predicted placing will be DEDUCTED from your score…..
    For example: If you predict that the UK will finish in 4th place but they ACTUALLY finish in 21st place…. 21 – 4 = 17 points will be deducted from your score.

    Good luck to you all

    Is that a trick question? :D

    Points are awarded depending in which position the countries finish in the show compared to your predicted placings.

    So until the voting is finished I can't tell you.

    Looks as though it could be good for those who picked Greece & Azerbaijan to be in their Top 5. They seem very popular with the audience......but who knows?

    Is that the Danish Ronan Keating? I know the song is but I reckon that'll score points.

    What on earth is that supposed to be?

    That song sounds marginally better if you just listen to it & not watch the gimp.

    First time I've heard the Norway song.

    Not bad I suppose as a Eurovision song......but not my cup of tea though.

    OH MY LORD..............I had no idea when I logged on how things had gone other than Norway had won!!

    Unlucky Vegy & Scooby, good efforts all round...

    Thanks to Ada for running the competition again, always appreciate your games...

    BUT........The champ does it again and finishes with more points than he started with and completes his total self embarrassment...

    If only I could pick horses and sports bets as well as I can the Eurovision...

    Hi all

    OK....it's prize time.

    Many congratulations to Iron Chris for an unbelievable 4th consecutive win in the Eurovision Game.

    I think that record is going to be nigh on impossible to beat!!

    To acknowledge your amazing achievement I'm going to increase your Amazon eVoucher prize by a fiver to £20. :)

    Please accept this with my (& I'm sure the other players') congratulations & best wishes.

    We'll do it all again next year....& who knows......will you be able to notch up a 5th victory, or will someone halt your seemingly unstoppable crusade? :D

    Chris, please can you confirm if it's OK for me to send your eVoucher to the Email address you used to submit your entries.
