Very open year tbh, many songs can qualify, who do you think will qualify from both semis ?

Well it is but I never said that this is definitely what’s gonna happen haha. Would be boring if I could see the future, no?
People get way too upset with predictions lol

Many years ago in Portugal a football player said he would make "predictions only at the end of the game". I guess that's what we should do here too, to avoid some butthurting.

Yea I mean, at the end of the day it’s just a fun thought experiment. Not more not less.

They are obvs just butthurt because in that prediction Austria would be a NQ lmao.
Not really but tbh you made your prediction look very scientific and you called it „based on voting patterns“ but it’s obviously not based on anything. That’s totally okay and no big deal but that’s what made us discuss about it…

Scientific? Lmao. What’s supposed to be scientific about a Song Contest?
It is based on voting patterns AMONG OTHER THINGS. Reading is fundamental. 😉

Not at all. I just can't with all these elaborate figures pretending to mean something when they are just lazy and crazy.

Of course I checked the Austrian vote tally, but the others wouldn't make any sense neither. Austria NQ coming from the Sorry Zero points neighbour is the running gag for ages now, so I don't give a flying fuck about that.

I pity you for your ignorance. Statistics is science. Empirical data from voting patterns is publicly available and can be used by amateurs with a little bit of Hirnschmalz to emulate a prediction that makes sense in another year.

What you did was to dice some scores and then try to fit in some crazy votes without looking at the voting country and their pattern.

You would have looked more clever without these voting cross tables.

I'm lazy to put a full prediction now, i will just put the opinions i have that majority of people may disagree with :

I think that :
-Lithuania will be qualified, by jury and public
-Finland will be a borderline qualifier (max 8th in SF) or a shock eliminated
-Israel will qualify

So now that we have rehearsal clips... Still super hard to predict. Which shows by all the vastly different takes in this thread!

Guaranteed: :gr: :nl: :no: :ua:
Likely in: :lv: :lt:
Borderline: :al: :am: :at: :is: :pt: :md: :ch:
Likely out: :bg: :hr:
Dead on arrival: :dk: :sl:
Prediction: :gr: :nl: :no: :ua: :lv: :lt: :al: :at: :is: :pt:
And now SF2

Guaranteed: :fi: :ee: :pl: :se:
Likely: :rs: :au: :cy:
Borderline: :az: :sm: :ro: :be: :cz:
Unlikely: :il: :ge: :mt:
Dead on arrival: :ie: :mk:
Prediction: :fi: :ee: :pl: :se: :rs: :au: :cy: :sm: :ro: :cz:

I kind of struggle to find 10 songs that feel like qualifiers in this semi... The last few spots feel like a complete crapshoot
