    Ada's Eurovision Game 2011 - In Play

    OK.....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.

    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: 12 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…..
    10pts will be ADDED to your score if the difference between the country’s actual placing & your predicted placing = 1
    8pts will be ADDED to your score if the difference between the country’s actual placing & your predicted placing = 2
    6pts will be ADDED to your score if the difference between the country’s actual placing & your predicted placing = 3
    4pts will be ADDED to your score if the difference between the country’s actual placing & your predicted placing = 4

    For example: If you predict that the UK will finish in 2nd place but they ACTUALLY finish in 4th place….the difference between their actual placing (4) and predicted placing (2) ……4-2 = 2, so 8 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 everyone, looks like it could be very tight this year...

    Why does everyone think that Spain will be in the bottom 3?
    Just heard it for the first time.....it's my idea of a perfect 'Eurovision' type of song.
    I would bet on it doing better than finishing in the last 3.....though knowing my luck.....

    Biggest surprise for me was Iceland, that for me was a classic Euro song, and I put it in my bottom 3 on the strength of the betting market so that could cost me in the comp, and Moldova was quirky and rather good too. Georgia, bit of metal style was decent...

    My keyboard's running out of ink....

    I liked the Iceland song too.
    Should have listened to all the songs before I made my selections.

    UK give Ireland 12 points.
    Will Ireland reciprocate?

    I do despair of the British public that vote on these things sometimes. 12 points for Jedward

    I must admit I only picked France for my top 5 purely because they were red hot favourites.
    It's certainly not going their way at the moment, is it?

    Oh, and pleeeease don't let Jedward win it!!!!!

    Graham Norton says the bookies dont normally get it wrong and there may be a late surge for France. At 1000/1 on betfair I doubt it!

    I think Iron Chris might be facing a bit of a struggle this year.

    Quote from Attheraces: For me France are by far the most likely winner and value at anything above Evens.

    Those of you who have Estonia in your top 5 are going to be hit hard when it comes to the scores for this game me thinks...

    Oh dear....I have Italy in my bottom 3 and Romania in my top 5.
    Don't think I'll be anywhere near winning this.

    Ha Ha Ha.......Ireland only gave the UK 6 points....typical huh?

    Attherace will be croaking about this:

    Looking at potential dangers to France, I was keenest on Denmark and Bosnia & Herzegovina just ahead of Azerbaijan before the Danes and Bosnians were handed very low draws after their semi-finals which could mean AZERBAIJAN are the main threat now from stall 19 and they appeal in the ‘Without France’ market at around 11/2 with a little save on DENMARK at 14/1. Sticking with the Danes, they are probably still worth getting with in the Top Scandinavian market as Finland and Sweden are also drawn low (Iceland are late but are big outsiders).
