Eurovision 2024 chat

[sour current]

I agreee

[burnt star]

I agree

But I am going to be fair

[sour current]

I agree and I’m Israeli

[somber pelican]

They dont????

Oh my

[royal vector]

They are going next

[royal vector]

They shouldnt qualify

[sour current]

I just genuinely want fair opinion on le song

[fair lodge]

So yeah here we go Droub uh oh

[crisp idol]

Trying to separate the artist from the country rn

[royal vector]

Thats hard to do

[burnt star]

Very pretty vocals

[fair lodge]

Fake cheers? What was that

[royal vector]

The crowd is definitely being censored

Yesterday it was filled with boos

[crisp idol]

Considering how silent it was yeah

[burnt scarab]

Its not the worst song

[crisp idol]

Definitely not the worst but it’s not going anywhere

[fathom swift]

this is 100% fake cheers\

[slim sedge]

Im waiting for the stage invading

[fair lodge]

Ffs this is EXACTLY what I would like NotLikeThis

[royal vector]

Thats hard to do cos Russia was banned for its invasion of Ukraine but Israel is here??

[royal vector]

Those cheers are super fake

Listen at how quiet the crowd

[crisp idol]

‘The crowd goes wild’ crickets

[sour current]

Hey guys can we talk about the fucking song please

[burnt star]

This actually is pretty good!

[crisp idol]

The song is okay

[royal vector]

Song is bad

There you go

[crisp idol]

I wouldn’t like it if it was another country cause it’s not my genre but like, it’s fine

[burnt scarab]

The song is upper end of mid

[burnt star]

Really good vocals, boring staging, but overall good song

[fair lodge]

She’s singing very well, a bit typical Eurovision power ballad

[burnt scarab]

Its a ballard, its better than Frances

[royal vector]

If this was any other country I would still find it bad

The fake cheers are insane

[burnt scarab]

I would put it above or equal to Malta

[royal vector]

The crowd is DEAD silent

[sour current]

No need for big words

Just prayer

And I tabbed out of the song so I can’t translate the rest

Sorry

💀

[royal vector]

FREE PALESTINE IN THE BACK

[slim sedge]

No stage invading? Damn

[royal vector]

People were screaming

She was FLEEING the stage

[burnt star]

See, if Israel WASN'T doing what they are doign now, this would've qualified

[fair lodge]

Our presenter saying “lots of cheering” crickets

[burnt star]

I quite liked the song

[royal vector]

Anyway now for some ear cleanser

[burnt star]

But man

[olive sable]

Song wasn't amazing but wasn't bad either

[sour current]

Let’s go singer leaves stages afraid for her well being!!!

[burnt star]

I can't really say I would vote for them

[sour current]

Let’s go singer is scared!!!

[royal vector]

I remember I listened to Gåte when I was a teen

[sour current]

Dude what the fuck

[royal vector]

Yeah I wonder why she would be

[sour current]

Shit on the country not the fucking singer

🙏

[slim sedge]

Good luck Norway being before Netherlands aint easy

[crisp idol]

No one is really, it’s an observation moreso

[somber pelican]

Norway is up

[burnt star]

Y'all are really building up Netherlands

[royal vector]

Norway is the best Nordic this year by far

[fathom swift]

netherlands is such a huge fucking banger to end on, the energy is going to be insane

[burnt star]

If it is not to par, i'll be so disapointed 😭

[sour current]

In a vacuum

[crisp idol]

The bar is high from all the netherlands talk tbh

[royal vector]

And I have heard songs from Gåte before

[crisp idol]

This song’s okay

[sour current]

Separating the artist from the country, what do y’all think- unless Netherlands started

[somber pelican]

When does the half naked dude with the teddybear come out?

[crisp idol]

We already said what we thought earlier

[royal vector]

Its a whatever song that I wouldnt like

[olive sable]

Netherlands has started now

Wait

[fair lodge]

Norway channeling Shum from a few years back

[olive sable]

No

[fathom swift]

i would like to point out, the nertherlands artist refused any pictures from israels management, so they recorded him without his consent

[royal vector]

Gåte is really good

[olive sable]

Brainfart this is norway

[crisp idol]

Not really my genre tbh but its fine

[fathom swift]

backstage

[somber pelican]

Might qualify

[sour current]

Wdym?

[somber pelican]

Bruh

[sour current]

Like pictures for what

[fathom swift]

they wanted pics of the israel artist and him together i think

he refused

so they recorded him without his consent as a snarky get back

[royal vector]

I hope it qualifies cos this is actual music

[sour current]

Man I feel so fucking bad for Eden she got so fucked over

[crisp idol]

Norway is goin a little crazy actually

[somber pelican]

Ok Norway do be slay

[crisp idol]

Applause

[urban rain]

the self react ain't fooling buddy

[sour current]

She gets to be the artist for Israel the one year everyone hates it

[crisp idol]

Now time for the ONE

[somber pelican]

JOOOOOOOOOST

[fair lodge]

I don’t really understand why anyone would sign up for it

[crisp idol]

This man reminds me of will wood from his appearance

[fathom swift]

JOOST MY BELOVED GIRLYPOP ICON

[crisp idol]

I may be tripping he just has a look about him

[burnt star]

FUCKED up hairstyle bruh 😭

[crisp idol]

[somber pelican]

EAT THEM JOOOOST

[crisp idol]

Oh my god

[olive sable]

Qualifier

[somber pelican]

HAHAHAHA

[royal vector]

Now for the KING

[crisp idol]

Yeah okay I get the hype

[somber pelican]

Qualified.

[royal vector]

THE KING IS HERE

EVERYONE KNEEL

[burnt star]

Ok

[fair lodge]

Dutch hoempapa beats LETSGO

[crisp idol]

Croatia’s still my top but this is a bop

[royal vector]

If this wins I wouldnt be mad at sll

[crisp idol]

Did it just say haii :3 in the back

[burnt scarab]

My list for the night:

Good songs: Netherlands, Estonia, Czechia
Mid songs which will qualify: Switzerland, Armenia, San Marino (Teetering), Malta, Israel (GeoPolitics™ says no), Greece, Norway
Eliminated: Albania, Austria (sad – I like 90s Eurobeat), Denmark, Latvia, Georgia, Belgium

[fathom swift]

YES

[royal vector]

EURODANCE, 90s, CATCHY, FUNNY

[fair lodge]

Is his the only artist to actually feature on the turquoise carpet in his stage outfit?

[royal vector]

this song has it all

[crisp idol]

I LOVE THIS ACTUALLY

[fathom swift]

IVE BEEN WAITING FOR SOMEONE TO NIOTICE IT

[burnt star]

Ok i'm gonna be so honest?

This is mid

Staging is fantastic

[somber pelican]

Go home

[burnt star]

But this is... very mid

[royal vector]

I dont think you are European

[crisp idol]

Thank god I’m not insane

[royal vector]

You should be exiled

Your citizenship should be taken away

[burnt star]

I'm sorry, this is very fun, but it's not good 😭

[fair lodge]

Oh boy the hakken has begun

[burnt star]

This is just like Finland imo

But honestly worse?

[somber pelican]

Go home fr

[fair lodge]

And transition into ballad 😢

[burnt star]

If this wins, i'll be disapointed 💀

[crisp idol]

Damn okay didn’t need the sad ending 😔

[royal vector]

You prefer Israel’s boring ass song that they had to change to remove the propaganda but not a genuine song about a guy’s dad that he made into something fun?

[fathom swift]

the entire song is actually really depressing

[burnt star]

I... kinda do? yeah?

[royal vector]

Thats awful

[sour current]

Nojus your fucking bias is speaking

[crisp idol]

No voting :(

[sour current]

Calm down

[burnt star]

I'm sorry, this song was fun, don't get me wrong? But it wasn't that good

[royal vector]

Its not bias to say that Israel shouldnt be here

[sour current]

HE WAS TALKING ABOUT THE QUALITY OF THE SONG

[fair lodge]

Never leaving Europe is hardly depressing, I don’t even leave my own house 🙂

[sour current]

He agreed that Israel shouldn’t be here

I agree that

[crisp idol]

What’s everyone’s favourite song so far (like throughout the entire lineup)? Outta curiosity

[urban rain]

People can dislike a song without it being biased

[royal vector]

Music wise, this one is also better

[fathom swift]

its all about how no matter how much he runs, travels europe, sees everything, he cant escape the pain and loneliness he feels

[burnt scarab]

Even quality wise - Netherlands was actually a good song - better than Finland's this year

[fair lodge]

I was distracted by the adhd bait lol, thanks for that insight

[burnt star]

Anyways! Top 5 of tonight:
Switzerland
Estonia
Malta
Greece
Armenia

No see, the Netherlands will almost definitely qualify

[fair lodge]

That Austrian song sounds like something we would’ve sent in the 90s ahah

[burnt star]

It would be one of the qualifying songs for me too

But low-qualifying

[fathom swift]

he lost his parents really young, his dad to a car accident, his mum to cardiac arrest 8 months after, the ending is all about how he acn finally say to his dad, he made it to eurovision, since they always watched it together and he would say he would on day do it

[burnt scarab]

Greece, Malta were ultimate mid songs
Armenia had the benefit of cultural stuff

[olive sable]

Switzerland, Netherlands, Denmark, Armenia and Estonia are my top 5

[fair lodge]

Aye they finally gave Belgium a good bit for the compilation

[crisp idol]

He’s out here making his dad proud :)

[somber pelican]

What the bookmakers think

[crisp idol]

Pure silence rn

[sour current]

BULLSHIT

[royal vector]

My top 5 of this lineup:
-Armenia
-Estonia
-The Netherlands
-Greece
-Norway

[sour current]

GET US OUT OF TOP 4

WE ARE NOT TOP 4

💀

[fair lodge]

I knew I shouldn’t be rooting for Czechia Sadge

[sour current]

Hurricane isn’t even fucking top 6

[somber pelican]

Mate. This is % of qualifying

Read

[royal vector]

Bookmarks are not necessarily positive

[urban rain]

Bookies put Israel at 8th to win the tournament

[royal vector]

LORDI???

LORDI???

[crisp idol]

Oh god sing along

[somber pelican]

What is going on lmao

[slim sedge]

2 votes for Netherlands 1 for switserland

[burnt scarab]

This is such an eh midway song

[crisp idol]

Confession I only got into eurovision recently (like 2021) so idk what’s going on

What is this song

[somber pelican]

Its an interval act

[fair lodge]

She won 19 years ago

[olive sable]

This is part of the experience

[somber pelican]

But its also Greece's entry from 2005

[crisp idol]

I see I see

[fair lodge]

For anyone confused, she was Charlotte Nilsen back then

[burnt star]

Loving this ngl

[royal vector]

🫡

[fair lodge]

Thanks Sertab for snubbing us. Apparently Belgium really didn’t wanna host in 2004.

SAAAAANNNDD

[somber pelican]

Sand 🙂

She has to qualify

[olive sable]

Eurovision Sand Contest ❤️

I really hope she gets through

[north owl]

89% is a smidge high for Israel considering how biased the public can be
yes I am still a little salty about 2022

[somber pelican]

Who doesnt want more Sand(er) 🙂

[slim sedge]

May i know your votes friends

[urban rain]

Are semi-qualis done by jury or public?

[fathom swift]

public this time

[olive sable]

Public

It used to be a mix

[burnt star]

Saw someone say the hosts gave mustard and ketchup vibes and they’re so right 😭😭

[north owl]

honestly I'm not even watching the semis

[urban rain]

heinz looking mf'ers

[somber pelican]

Hahahahaha

[fair lodge]

Wait… how is it public only?

[fathom swift]

all decided by televotes

[slim sedge]

Belgium has a 40/60 chance i feek

[somber pelican]

Jury vote is only for final

[north owl]

and even then it's mostly the public votes that really matter

[fathom swift]

you say that

but last year 😔

[north owl]

the public votes screwed my country in 2022

the jury loved us

[paper sphinx]

2019 flashbacks

[crisp idol]

Ireland not even qualifying recently until now 😔

[fair lodge]

And then there’s the “weird” (read: wrong) point scoring system in 2015 that meant Mans never actually won Eurovision but it would’ve been Il Volo instead.

[olive sable]

What happened with 2015s scoring?

[fair lodge]

Televoting and jury scores were very oddly compounded into one number.

I remember building a VERY large excel file to figure out what happened where. 😆
They changed it the next year.

[north owl]

by the way, chat
could you remind me to watch the Eurovision episode of Father Ted tomorrow
I'd watch it on saturday but the first two new doctor who episodes drop and I'm gonna be busy watching them

[burnt star]

Hahaha

[olive sable]

This is MY winner

[somber pelican]

Oh hello La La Land

I should rewatch that movie...

Oh well

[burnt star]

HAHAHA

Loving this

[somber pelican]

YOOOO THE BM ON DENMARK

[burnt star]

Sweden ALWAYS kills it with their break shows

[olive sable]

That was amazing all round

[crisp idol]

THE IRELAND SHADE

[olive sable]

[somber pelican]

Hahahahaha

[crisp idol]

Bambie needs to win it for us

[burnt star]

That was AWESOME

[urban rain]

"you can boo all you want" is particularly ironic tonight

[burnt scarab]

That was boring

[somber pelican]

Wth

[crisp idol]

That was great

[burnt scarab]

Sweden is now banned for being big headed bastards

[crisp idol]

Hard rock hallelujah my beloved

[somber pelican]

I kinda dislike the green room

The current setup i mean

[crisp idol]

Oh god he said lol

At least we’re good to go

[olive sable]

Waiting for the day they're like "we're not good to go" and they messed up the maths

[burnt scarab]

Lets see how many out of 6 eliminated I get right

[crisp idol]

I was thinking of that

[somber pelican]

It was messed up once

[crisp idol]

Latvia???

[burnt star]

Mmmm no

[burnt scarab]

FUCK I messed Latvia up

[burnt star]

I mean

[olive sable]

[fair lodge]

Lucky red and white flags

[burnt star]

YEAAAAAAH

[crisp idol]

Norway makes sense

[burnt star]

[crisp idol]

Switzerland?

[somber pelican]

[burnt scarab]

I predicted that

[somber pelican]

I WANT SAND

[crisp idol]

OH?

[burnt star]

WHAT

[crisp idol]

HUH?

[fair lodge]

Ok I might actually not watch this is ridiculous

[royal vector]

FUCK OFF

[crisp idol]

There’s something wrong

[royal vector]

FUCK ALL THE WAY OFF

[crisp idol]

We may not have been good to go

[urban rain]

No surprise there tbh

[crisp idol]

YAY ESTONIA

[fair lodge]

Are people still booing Israel? Sounds muffled

[royal vector]

They are

[urban rain]

I have a feeling Israel will win tbh

[crisp idol]

Go nemo go

[somber pelican]

Hahaha nah

Croatia will win

[crisp idol]

No way

[olive sable]

Come on armenia!!

[royal vector]

This is awful

Like I am actually disgusted

[fair lodge]

Holy mother

[burnt scarab]

Man I got 3/6 wrong so far

GEORGIA made it through with that

[crisp idol]

If san marino gets on I leave

[fair lodge]

Yep we’re beaten by Luxembourg

[crisp idol]

They won’t

[fair lodge]

It happened

[somber pelican]

Armenia?

[crisp idol]

YEAHHHHH

[olive sable]

Yeahh!!!

[burnt star]

Ok thank god

[olive sable]

The crowd were STILL booing there

[burnt star]

But YEAAAAAAHHHH NORWAYYYYY

[olive sable]

Heard them cut out the audience right at the end

[oak oriole]

The subtitles just said "commiserations to those sex acts who didn't make it through"

[slim sedge]

Gg

[oak oriole]

Good job

[somber pelican]

But Latvia making it? Wth

[olive sable]

Sad Denmark didn't get through though

Eurovision Sand Contest is over

[burnt star]

Good job everyone tonight!

[somber pelican]

😗

😦

[crisp idol]

Latvia confused me

[slim sedge]

Good luck to netherlands and Luxelbourg your carying the spirit of Belgium with you

[somber pelican]

I have now became 'Er', we lost the Sand

[crisp idol]

Well

Rooting for Croatia or Ireland then

[fair lodge]

You can gift a country a whole ass WIN but you can’t even VOTE A SINGLE ACT OUT?! f right off eurovision (the symbolic win for Ukr was deserved and nice, no shade)

[somber pelican]

Croatia 1. Ireland/Switzerland 2nd

[crisp idol]

I’m gonna agree with that

[burnt scarab]

1. Netherlands
2. Croatia
3. Estonia

for me

[crisp idol]

At least for public vote it’ll be something like that

[burnt scarab]

Ireland is ultimate Aesthetics over Song, so its middle of the table for me

[crisp idol]

Oh yeah I get it

But I like the screaming so

[wild hearth]

ESTONIAAAAAQQQQQ

[fair lodge]

Lots of people are not gonna understand Ireland either

[somber pelican]

Netherlands wont win, cuz of Finland

[burnt scarab]

Its baby's first screamo.

Like, I grew up on Slayer

Angel Witch (with their hit album, Angel Witch, which had their hit song, Angel Witch)

[somber pelican]

They're slaying wth

[rancid tangle]

TRUE

[north owl]

so who made it through?

[somber pelican]

Latvia

[fair lodge]

She-who-must-not-be-mentioned

[crisp idol]

Austria

[olive sable]

Netherlands and Estonia

[sour current]

Alright I’m back what did I miss

[somber pelican]

Norway

[olive sable]

Also armenia

[slim sedge]

Rip Belgium no lowlands tripplets in tbe finals

[sour current]

We didn’t pass right?

[olive sable]

You did

[crisp idol]

No you did

[rancid tangle]

you did...

[slim sedge]

You did

[burnt scarab]

This SF:

Netherlands, Estonia, Latvia, Switz, Austria, Armenia, Israel, Greece, Georgia, Norway

[sour current]

Ain’t no way we advanced to finals-

WHAT

[rancid tangle]

somehow

IDK

[urban rain]

israel obviously breezed through

[north owl]

isreal made it to the finals?

[slim sedge]

Belgium was left behined

[somber pelican]

Ye

[crisp idol]

Yep

[burnt star]

DIGGI LOO DIGGI LEY ALLA TITTAR PÅ MIG

[sour current]

Ok that’s clever

[rancid tangle]

CZECHIA DIDNT GO THROUGH

[sour current]

Cause the song is called hurricane

[north owl]

well my safe bet apparently was wrong

[rancid tangle]

MINE GYLLENDE SKO

[fair lodge]

W some people in Belgium protesting

[burnt star]

True BUT

YEAAAAH NORWAYYYYY

[burnt scarab]

I am still shocked at Mum Pop Latvia getting through despite Iceland doing the same

[sour current]

How the fuck

[rancid tangle]

JADA!!!!

[sour current]

Did we pass???

[somber pelican]

No Droub

[north owl]

and idk if I still want to watch the finals

[slim sedge]

How im dealing with the NQ

[north owl]

so isreal is out?

[fathom swift]

nope

[olive sable]

No

[somber pelican]

Nah theyre in

[fair lodge]

I’m taken aback by how disgusted I feel rn…. Hmm

[slim sedge]

I feel tempted to do my face reveal anyway

[somber pelican]

Before the party is over ...

[north owl]

well idk if I am going to watch
on the one hand I was hoping to react with you guys to all the twists and turns on the other hand I feel like watching would feel wrong

[royal vector]

that was gross

its awful

[burnt star]

Israel made it through surprisingly enough

I mean, their entry was really good, but since this was a public vote, I was so certain they'd not make it through

[slim sedge]

The boycot helped isreal

People who wherned voting isreal didnt vote

Those who where did

Face reveal of my deceased scared self in an hour let me frech up first

Im done waiting for Belgium to get top 5

[somber pelican]

French up?

They're in the final

XD

[burnt star]

So for those who missed it:
The ones that are going into the finale from Semi-Final 2 were:

Netherlands
Norway
Israel
Estonia
Georgia
Latvia
Armenia
Austria
Switzerland
Greece

[oak oriole]

I'm a little worried the final might attract the "watching eurovision = bad" people, so there's now a pin to point to

Hopefully we do not have to tap the sign

[burnt star]

From semi final 1, the ones going to the finale are:

Luxembourg
Portugal
Finland
Slovenia
Croatia
Ukrania
Ireland
Lithuania
Serbia
Cyprus

[royal vector]

no one is saying that tho

[oak oriole]

Please reread the message and note how it is future tense. Also yes these people do exist, I'm sorry to inform you of that.

Also tbh... pls that didn't need to be said. I did something out of caution and wasn't really looking for anything beyond "ok cool"

[burnt star]

Yeah, no worries, it's good to be reminded of this, considering the finale will now feature Israel

[burnt scarab]

I love how Klein had the OTT costume even in the live Semis

[fathom swift]

he is the epitome of gen z humor and i love it

[fair lodge]

The pin doesn’t seem to work for me but it did bring me to the bookmaker post where Belgium was 4th *inhales large breath of copium *

[fathom swift]

having the fucking haii :3 flash on stage

iconic

[urban rain]

bookies

[burnt scarab]

I had to explain to the missus his costume is like an Over The Top EuroCrat Blue

[fair lodge]

I still don’t know what that’s supposed to refer to lmao 👴
But it’s cool and funky

[burnt scarab]

Of course who can forget Croatia's

"Bye Mum,
Bye Dad,
Meow Cat, please Meow Back"

[north owl]

honestly I'm conflicted about watching eurovision
on the one hand it'd be fun watching along with you guys in this server
on the other hand I feel I'd end up feeling bad about it

[paper sphinx]

Ikrrrr, it's hell awkward this year

[burnt star]

It wouldn't be a bad idea to watch it in a large group? Count it as one viewer but with many watchers

[somber pelican]

The full current odds

[burnt star]

AS LONG as we beat the Swedes, i'll be happy :)

That's a win in our book

[somber pelican]

You mean the Norwegians?

😂

[north owl]

I guess
but last year I had it on iplayer on another tab

[tender shuttle]

Latvia qualified?!

[somber pelican]

Dont even ask how

we dont know either

[young heron]

france ending up 6th in the odds despite having the middest song ever

[somber pelican]

I present to you: Latvia qualifying

[tender shuttle]

Belgium was ROBBED how did Latvia do it?! He was the lowest!

[burnt scarab]

Never underestimate the power of MUM POP

[sour current]

I’m accepting that we lose finals

So uhh that’s cool I hope Ireland wins

Since their song was cool

[oak oriole]

Whether you watch or not should just be based on whether you enjoy it rather than unrelated world events surrounding it. Not watching it for that is just slacktivism.

[burnt scarab]

I need the holy trinity of Croatia/Netherlands/Estonia to win, as they were all unique songs

[north owl]

thanks jim

[sour current]

Can yall also tone it down on like the politics please

[burnt star]

My top winner is either Ukraine, Switzerland, or Ukraine

[sour current]

I almost considered leaving the server tonight for a brief second

[north owl]

sorry

[young heron]

what's so special about croatia

[sour current]

It got really fucking bad

[oak oriole]

We'll be trying to keep it out of this thread as much as possible (see pins)

[burnt scarab]

BYE MUM
BYE DAD
MEOW CAT, PLEASE MEOW BACK

(Its just a really cool upbeat melancholy rock song about leaving your village for the city)

[north owl]

anyway I'm going to mostly be rooting for my country
but I hear good things about ireland's entry

[oak oriole]

Tbh didn't realise it was on today so only saw the very end

[copper night]

Is it the jury favourite type?

[burnt scarab]

These are the first semi-finals I've caught

I always catch the finals

I have my spreadsheet in all - the missus sighs as I rank the bands and songs

[somber pelican]

Its based on all the betting offices

[young heron]

why did i think it was just eh

[young heron]

yes

[oak oriole]

I guess you have an incorrect opinion ™️

[burnt scarab]

Betting offices only give odds on what people are putting money on - so people are thinking that, bookies have no extra info

[copper night]

No, I am asking if they are betting on a mid song because the juries love that

[slim sedge]

for those who arned in VC have a wizard face reveal

yes this is how i look like

[burnt scarab]

Like, I could put £10 million on Latvia winning and suddenly the odds on Latvia winning go from 1/100 to 1/2

[somber pelican]

Nah, not completely true

Odds went out when peeps released their song

And the surrounding hype around is plays also a factor

[burnt scarab]

Its still no extra info

We have this issue, weirdly enough, when analysing the p-word in the UK (I am trying to get enough knowledge to teach Politics GCSE)

[somber pelican]

Well cya 'till saturday o/

[copper night]

Would it be illegal for RT to try and sway the eurovision results?

[fair lodge]

Great idea, we as an audience make the statement to stick it to the Swedes and grant Ireland their 8th win 😂

[somber pelican]

Just dropping this here for @burnt star

[urban rain]

the televotes for Italy were leaked, with Israel on 40%, bookies have massively backed Israel

[somber pelican]

Wrong screenshot?

[tender shuttle]

I’m rooting for Ireland and the Netherlands (not biased as a Dutchman lol)

[urban rain]

No this is the new bookies results

Israel got 40% on Italian televotes

[fair lodge]

That is wild and without even considering the politics, very fishy

[urban rain]

https://fxtwitter.com/ESCdiscord/status/1788681278142718097

there we go

full results

[somber pelican]

Thanks!

[burnt star]

That's... suspicious

[fair lodge]

Not Belgium and Norway dead last 😭 😭

Hol up what does producers choice mean, has this happened before? Or with so many countries at least.

[somber pelican]

Odds of whoever will finish in last place

[burnt star]

yes. it means their placement will be random

[somber pelican]

To the choice of the producers

some stuff takes time to setup and stuff

and they can't have 5 intervals after each and every song ofc

So that's why they'll just fill in wherever they want

[fair lodge]

Seven out of ten seems a lil excessive to me

[somber pelican]

But also to have a better flow of the final

But these are only the ones from the second round, not the first

[burnt star]

Second half is where you really want to be

[somber pelican]

Doesn't really matter anymore tbh

You can vote as of this year from the start

[fair lodge]

Opening the show is still horrible as we saw last year

[somber pelican]

And the first round definitely showed that many artists from the first half can get good scores

Well, luckily Sweden is doing that

😂

[fair lodge]

True lol

[burnt star]

... why tf would they do this? 💀

[burnt scarab]

Recency bias is a thing

[burnt star]

Yeah that is true

But still

Weird to make this change this year

[somber pelican]

For the exact reason why you said why Second Half is better hahaha

[burnt star]

I am so curious how many votes Israel will get this year

I genuinely do not think they'll get 0 from the televotes, and believe they're going to get a substantial amount

[north owl]

honestly idk anymore

personally I'm rooting for my own country because I am rather biased

but I am open to rooting for ireland

[somber pelican]

Europapa

[burnt star]

I am being so serious when I say this, but there’s a very decent chance Israel might win this year

[burnt star]

I think if not winning, they’ll get top 3, at the very least top 5

[fair lodge]

From first to last challenge completed for Austria

Hoping “them” get the literal maximum possible points from televoting so the IBU realizes.

Sad for Joost, seems to be a graveyard spot. Rooting for Europapa still.

[high remnant]

Well he might not perform at all

[burnt star]

yeah, apparently he didn't even show up for the grand finale practice preformance

[high remnant]

Some sort of investigation

[grizzled venture]

yeah seems so

unsure what's happened just know there's some sort of investigation going on

[high remnant]

Aparently it was during some interview

[grizzled venture]

statement just says "We are currently investigating an incident that was reported to us involving the Dutch artist. He will not be rehearsing until further notice. We have no further comment at this time and will update in due course" well the last one i've seen

[high remnant]

Aparently it was was maybe in an interview where some guy asked golan if she was aware that her being there might put others in danger, then someone from managment jumped in and said she does not have to answer that question to wich klein responded with "why not?"

The dutch news is saying it has something to do with that

Oh well, i guess we will see

[grizzled venture]

yeah

[grizzled venture]

saw some statements in terms of this from ebu basically just saying that doing that is a breach of the rules of the contest as "voting results may only be communicated after the event" and they've asked rai to review their procedures but in terms of joost we will need to wait to see

[urban rain]

Betting odds now putting Israel to win televoting

[grizzled venture]

oh

[burnt star]

Ngl, I bet it will

[urban rain]

overall / televote

[burnt star]

They're going to get a LOT of televotes, and it's going to leave a lot of people shocked

[urban rain]

juries save us

[burnt star]

Lmfao ironic twist

Before it was "eradicate the jury!!!" and now it's "pls jury save us :)"

I don't want Israel to win either, as I think Ukraine, Switzerland, and Croatia have much more solid entries this year

But it will not surprise me if Switzerland sweeps the televotes despite the hatred it is getting. I have seen a growing number of people who never otherwise watch Eurovision who are willing to spam-vote on Israel

[high remnant]

That's a bit silly

[burnt star]

Saw this frankly pathetic news article in Norwegian news papers earlier today where a man claimed he had voted 80 times by using his, his wife, and their childrens phones and maxing out their votes to, and I shit you not: "Combat antisemitism"

[grizzled venture]

huh

[urban rain]

Yeah that doesn't surprise me

[high remnant]

That man should get off his phone, and all those other phones too

[burnt star]

it's honestly pathetic 😭

[urban rain]

Sadly one of the issues of the eurovision format is that states can pay to win

[burnt star]

Like, I liked Israel's entry this year, but these people make it a life or death sport 😭

[high remnant]

Yeah i don't feel like it's that important in the grand scheme of things

But oh well, whatever makes people think they are doing something important

[burnt star]

That being said, if we do end up in an Israeli victory, I may just not watch next year tbh

While I try to keep politics out of the way in my opinions on Eurovision, idk how I would feel with it being hosted in Israel considering the ongoing conflict. Not just because of Israel, but for the sake of the safety of the artists preforming.

[high remnant]

I just hope my country will at least be able to perform in the finale, might not watch otherwise. Not really as like an activist thing but watching my own country perform was in large part why i was even watching in the first place

[burnt star]

I'll still watch the finale on Saturday! And it'll be really exciting to watch! but man am I nervous

[urban rain]

be absurd if they do get DSQ

[high remnant]

Oh yeah if they win the next time will be very weird

[somber pelican]

What the hell is going on lol

[fair lodge]

What is that from again? Reminds me of that Andrei Tarkovsky movie

[somber pelican]

Ending part from Europapa music video

[fair lodge]

Oh right, I put off watching those until after, my bad 🙂

Hmm

[somber pelican]

There are also rumors going around as to what happened. But it's all unreliable for now...

[royal vector]

I don’t know if this is because he said Why Not in that interview cos many other singers from other countries are also walking away from Israeli interviewers

And covering their faces etc

[somber pelican]

It most likely has a different reason

[urban rain]

I hope there is a reason given

[high remnant]

On the bright side i will have more than enough time to watch the new doctor who episodes

[barren raft]

he also was harassed about his parents by an israeli interviewer after that

[somber pelican]

These are only unreliable rumors

[barren raft]

also a case of a member of the israeli delegation harassing his team https://vxtwitter.com/aksujl/status/1788937056091029526

i dont reckon theyll dq him, if they do then the backlash will be unfathimable tbh

if they do then i certainly wont be watching the finals, and its already up in the air if i even do rn

I guess we'll have the answer anywhere between now and two hours from now

If they disqualify him I believe some artists have threatened to pull out

An artist assaulted a camera man

[olive sable]

What?

[royal vector]

Israel has been picking beef with everyone

The Netherlands and Spain mostly

[sour current]

It’s not Israel

[olive sable]

Where did you hear the artist assaulting a cameraman thing

[sour current]

Stop jumping to fucking conclusions

[royal vector]

Its literally the israel delegation

[sour current]

It was something with a Swedish camera man

[barren raft]

oh jesus christ after seeing this now https://vxtwitter.com/salentient/status/1788561262290321887

[sour current]

I’m not exactly sure

[urban rain]

Droub slow down we've been discussing this all day

[royal vector]

More than three artists have reported the israel delegation being rude and harassing people

And the israeli journalists have been actively trying to provoke and start fights with artists

[urban rain]

incredible

[sour current]

Oh Damn it im never gonna be able to go to Ireland huh

[barren raft]

very normal thing mhm yep

Eurovision might be very well on its way to be cancelled

[sour current]

“What the fuck is the Israeli group doing there”

[urban rain]

🤞

[royal vector]

Who could have possibly predicted this

[sour current]

And also I have in recent years really wanted to go to Ireland

But like with current situation

I don’t know if I would be able to and if it would even fucking be safe for me?

I really do want to one day go to Ireland for vacation

[royal vector]

I very much doubt that unless you go around Ireland saying things like “I AM ISRAELI PEOPLE, I AM FROM ISRAEL”

And even then people will just think you are a weirdo lmao

[sour current]

Nojus I’m not that fucking dumb

[high remnant]

Then why is it you would not feel safe?

[sour current]

Which artist was the one that got suspended btw

[high remnant]

Ehmmm, i forgot

😦

[royal vector]

The only safe haven for Palestinians is being bombed and their way out is being blocked and you are worried wether it will be unsafe for you to visit ireland? 💀

[royal vector]

No one so far

There are rumors

That Joost might get suspended

[sour current]

Dude???? Did I ever fucking say that-

[royal vector]

Yes

You quite literally did

Lmao

[sour current]

Did I ever say that I don’t give a fuck about the first one

[urban rain]

Joost

[royal vector]

Ok dude

[north owl]

Guys I think it's getting a smidge heated here

[high remnant]

Yeah i was about to say

[olive sable]

Please take a second to cool off yeah

[sour current]

You fucking saw me say “I’m worried about someday going to Ireland” and you said “so you don’t care Palestinians are being bombed”?

Sorry will cool it

[high remnant]

The real Eurovision winner this year is Estonian VSauce

I think if Ireland actually entered it they'd qualify

Dustin the turkey was ahead of it'd time

YESSSSS

I love estonia so much

I bet they'd fucking win

Estonias song is such an earworm

I am in love with it

TWELVE POINTS

Nojus I must ask, what do you think of the uk's gay space boxer orgy?

[sour current]

❓

I don’t get it

[oak oriole]

Those be the numbers

[sour current]

But how

[wild hearth]

Ireland number six let's gooooo

[sour current]

I mean I heard of the leak where one country accidentally showed the amount of votes Israel got

[somber pelican]

That would mean i'd give a very political answer

which i wont

[oak oriole]

Remember though the voting is always rigged 100% of the time.

Every time

[sour current]

I think this might have contributed to the bets jumping

[royal vector]

Only good part about that entry

The rest of it is insanely mid

I love Greek Rosalia

[wild hearth]

As always, you are SO correct

[royal vector]

She will always be famous

[olive sable]

its crazy how the eurovision version of our UK act has so much more gay energy than the song itself

[wild hearth]

Considering she had a fever and pharyngitis, she absolutely slayed last night

[royal vector]

Queen

Empress

Regent Superior

[olive sable]

it was performed a while back on ITV and i can say with certainly the gay energy is off the charts in comparison

[wild hearth]

I'd also actually kill to buy the artwork shirt irl

[royal vector]

Make Marina Satti Pope

Or whatever the orthodox peoples have

[wild hearth]

MAKE 👏 MARINA 👏 SATTI 👏 PRESIDENT 👏 OF 👏 GREECE

[fathom swift]

its actually killing me not knowing the actual story and decision regarding joost

[royal vector]

Idiot she already is

Do some research like

[sour current]

Could someone explain the joost situation please

[oak oriole]

Just make something up and present it as fact. Bonus points for tweeting it so everyone else has a source for their new facts

[olive sable]

[sour current]

I vaguely heard about it on the new

[fathom swift]

TRUE loadiing up twitter dot com right now

[fathom swift]

no one knows for certain, they havent made a statement yet

[royal vector]

People are doing their best to piece together whatever is happening

[olive sable]

this hits very hard i'm having to use single tweets to get a grasp on whats going on and i feel like i don't really know as a result (thanks elon for making twitter practically unusable without an account)

[royal vector]

There is no official communication between the EBU and the public rn

Which was a MASSIVE fumble

They should have been way more transparent from the get go

[olive sable]

although i do trust the video footage people have been sending here because it does match up with whats going on

[oak oriole]

Hey now we do know things. We know there was "an incident"!

A thing happened, seems pretty straightforward to me.

[olive sable]

we also know there are "crisis meetings" thanks EBU!

[royal vector]

Things happen all the time

[wild hearth]

😔 I'm a fool

[urban rain]

Short of cutting edge artificial generation which doesn't really exist yet, videos are reliable, albeit context limited

[somber pelican]

We'll know more in an hour from now

[oak oriole]

I'm done with things today so it'd be nice if they stopped happening

[royal vector]

Someone pissing in the corner of the green room is an incident, someone eating Denmark’s sand is an incident

[somber pelican]

As that is when the Jury show has started

[wild hearth]

joost SET FIRE to MALMO CITY HALL

I mean videos are not reliable because of the whole framing - sorry I've been teaching (well trying to) year 8s about Provenance

[olive sable]

we know there was an "incident" and it involved Joost thats as far as the actual information goes

[high remnant]

there is no other confirmed or denied involvement

[somber pelican]

Netherlands does not appear on the running order.

i can't speak dutch and i know not what it means but gediskwalificeerd is such a good word

[somber pelican]

Also now being reported that all Dutch flags have been removed

[royal vector]

Yeah this is a DQ

[olive sable]

they CANT

well they can but you know what i mean

[high remnant]

This isn't even limited to the song contest, every dutch flag has been removed

I look outiside and see nothing

[oak oriole]

Hmm notice how it was called an incident and not a fracas. So I guess they didn't do a jeremy clarkson

[sour current]

Oh uhhh

[royal vector]

This has surely been a very interesting eurovision, and i have not even seen a single second of it yet

[urban rain]

if it happens, First time someone has been DSQ, right?

[barren raft]

correct

if this is the case

[somber pelican]

No disqualification, but old footage will be reviewed [by the jury]. Research has not yet been completed around Joost Klein (cc. Dutch Newspaper AD) (and now also AVROTROS)

[urban rain]

yep*

corrected

[olive sable]

so he's not in the jury finals but the jury will review his performance as if he were?

[somber pelican]

yes

Like Iceland 2021 or something

[high remnant]

That's odd

[north owl]

Yeah this is certainly a rough Eurovision

[oak oriole]

I guess the question is why would they be that accommodating if the person did a bad

[royal vector]

Anyway stream Europapa

This is fucking weird man

[somber pelican]

There's now even an extra news broadcast

[high remnant]

Yeah, it does make you wonder what he did

[somber pelican]

(yea, that's what i literally just said lol)

[high remnant]

So it was bad enough that he might be disqualified, but not bad enough that they can say that for sure

[urban rain]

the EBU really should explain what happened

they probably won't

[wild hearth]

Saying nothing is really just making it worse

[urban rain]

but they should

[urban rain]

yep

[high remnant]

Yeah i don't really understand it

[wild hearth]

Even if they don't say what the incident was and just say "joost won't be pregnant tonight"

oh no

PERFORMING

[somber pelican]

pregnant

XD

[high remnant]

So he might be again tomorrow?

[royal vector]

Maybe we should all just go into the woods and hold hands and eat a boar

[high remnant]

We have reviewed the evidence and are happy to inform joost will be pregnant for the finals

[royal vector]
