My top 10 for the final were:

1. Greece
2. Moldova
3. France
4. Netherlands
5. Romania
6. Finland
7. Azerbaijan
8. Ireland
9. Belarus
10. Ukraine

Overall I think Sweden hosted this one brilliantly. Right up until they announced Denmark as the winner and then everybody turned off. Meaning no one cared about Switzerland's, Croatia's and Lithuania's votes.

Off to Denmark!

^^looks pretty homosexual

Don't act like you didn't love every second of it!

And from the Eurovision website.

Quote
The running order is as follows:

France
Lithuania
Moldova
Finland
Spain
Belgium
Estonia
Belarus
Malta
Russia
Germany
Armenia
The Netherlands
Romania
United Kingdom
Sweden
Hungary
Denmark
Iceland
Azerbaijan
Greece
Ukraine
Italy
Norway
Georgia
Ireland

So basically, Lithuania are in the No.2 spot of death. (No one has won from that position ever, so now they're even more screwed.) France is already dead in the water and we get to end watching hot guys play drums. I do wish Moldova got a better draw, though.

I agree with Naryar. There was nothing in the rules about OOTA restarts so it should just be treated as an elimination.

Unrelated. Apparently I was the only person I knew who liked this the first time around.

Nope, we still have juries. Which kills the spirit. In my opinion.
Agreed.

So, the second semi is tomorrow... I'm looking forward Finland, Romania & Greece to get Finals.

I'm hoping there's less ballads and more giants and spacemen in this one.

Anyway you could use gears or small belts to get one motor per side?

...I was talking about the semi final that has just been and gone? That made no sense Narykins.

Moldova's was certainly one of the better ballads of the evening, and the growing dress that mas moving pictures on it gains credit too. Ireland's was alright. I wasn't too keen on the fake tattoos though.

Also how did the astronauts not get through. I blame the juries. We should get rid of them.

wait.. someone cares about this crap?
GTFO.

Conraaa, I liked Lithuania's song. Oh and by the way, I already know the winner. Denmark. It was just so amazing performance and clearly best of the first semifinal.

It sure as hell wasn't the worst but it wasn't either.

Neither did Serbia. But Lithuania and The Netherlands broke their streaks of doing terribly!

I'd get rid of the beater bars. You've already drawn the teeth on the skin!

You'd probably need a new arena for that. Also I had another simple new idea:

Red vs Blue - 2 randomly generated teams, each member creates a different weight class for both stock and DSL. For this tournament you could feature every single weight class put forward including fleaweights (100kgs or less), featherweights (175.1-200kgs), cruiserweights (400-600kgs) and ultra-heavyweights (1200-3000kgs).

Just imagine 2 teams made up of the following...

Stock:

Fleaweight (FLW)
AW
BW
Featherweight (FW)
LW
MW
Cruiserweight (CW)
HW
SHW
UHW

DSL:

Fleaweight (FLW)
AW
BW
Featherweight (FW)
LW
MW
Cruiserweight (CW)
HW
SHW
UHW

so it would be best of 20 and up to around 40 entries unless a special decider is needed which would consist of a new unofficial weight class (249.1-300kgs or 601-700kgs for example). 40 entries might not be hard to achieve seeing as it combines both stock and DSL.

I'd personally ditch fleaweights as there's not much you can do with them. (You've already created everything possible in about 20 bots) Plus it'd bring it down to 9 classes, meaning that there couldn't be a tie.

Odds on Dominating to win are at about 3/2 right now.

Seriously though, looking forward to this one. Got an idea I hope I can get to work.

Have to admit, the brackets seem slightly lopsided in this one.
