    Ada's Eurovision Game 2015 - Make Your Selections

    Hi all......
    If anyone wants to play, just follow the instructions below...

    The list below shows this year's 27 finalists RUNNING ORDER for Saturday's finale:

    Slovenia
    France
    Israel
    Estonia
    United Kingdom
    Armenia
    Lithuania
    Serbia
    Norway
    Sweden
    Cyprus
    Australia
    Belgium
    Austria
    Greece
    Montenegro
    Germany
    Poland
    Latvia
    Romania
    Spain
    Hungary
    Georgia
    Azerbaijan
    Russia
    Albania
    Italy


    WHAT YOU MUST DO NOW:
    You must now either PM or Email (address below) me the countries that, in your opinion, will finish in the Top 5 AND Bottom 3 in the correct order, in this year’s Eurovision contest, PLUS the answer to a tie-break question.

    So......I will require 8 'answers' from each of you…… 1st, 2nd, 3rd, 4th, 5th & 25th, 26th, 27th.....PLUS.....
    You must ALSO provide an answer to the tie-break question :-
    In which position (1-27) will the UK song finish?

    PLEASE DO NOT POST YOUR SELECTIONS ON THIS THREAD (unless you absolutely have to)


    DEADLINE FOR ENTRIES: 21:00 SATURDAY 23rd MAY.

    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.

    I will post a new game thread containing each player's selections at around 19:00 Saturday.

    EMAIL ADDRESS (you know what to do):

    Good Luck

    Sorry guys,

    I'm really quite ill today and think I may need a visit to hospital.
    If I'm not back on here by early this evening then I won't be able to host the game.

    I thought I had maybe overestimated the Belgique entry but it seemed to get a loud cheer in the arena.

    Russia with a 10 point lead. Too tight to call but A lot of Russia's neighbours have voted already which may mean Sweden have this

    You get minus points for ones that you didn't get right Paul. Just need to wait to see if Ada had any other submissions, but I think you have the right order in regards to the 3 of us.

    Veggie,

    I knew it would be more complicated. Ada should hopefully be back online on Tuesday.

    You were sorely missed tonight Asa and I hope you are feeling well soon. Credit o you for keeping this going in the face of seemingly dwindling participation. Eurovision night is one of my favourites of the year because of this competition on this little old forum.
