I usually invite my friends over for Eurovision, and have prepared food, games and quizzes for the evening so that those who doesn't share my passion all the way also can feel included and have fun. The winner (or winning team) of each game receives a vote to place on a song they wish to vote for, which is why I tend to vote for more songs than my personal favorite. I end up placing around three votes on my favorite aside from the votes I "give" to people.

That's definitely a fun and interesting way of doing it.
It's very appreciated, and even those of my friends who "dislike" Eurovision feel engaged and start to debate around which song to vote for, weighing pros against cons and really dive into it. Pretty entertaining to listen to their reasoning, too.
Last year, a guy who "dislikes" Eurovision won a game and decided to give his vote to Poland... cause breasts... But hey, it was his vote! xD

You don't need to qualify to vote in the final. Everybody votes in the final.

I might just have to steal this idea if I ever manage to get all my friends to watch it.
Semi 1
Semi 2
final depends on who makes it from those 5 + most likely
You can't vote in semi 1. Unless you plan on going into a country which can.

Yeah, but I am not sure if I won't be too depressed to watch the Final if we won't qualify.

You should definitely do it, it brings the evening to a whole different level, and it's one of the reasons (if not the main reason) I really long for ESC 2015!

It would probably make them more interested in it. In the past years I just watched it with my mum who has no interest what so ever in ESC.

That's very true! We were 14 people last year, one fanatic (me), 3-4 people who usually watch and enjoy ESC, and the rest "doubters" or "dislikers". The last two categories have openly asked if I plan another ESC evening this year and shown their interest in attenting. I'm super thrilled it's been a success enough to "convert" people into enjoying the show for what it is - a huge party where the entire Europe comes together and put aside differences.

As it stands right now on the semi-final vote I'm very undecided between Latvia, Slovenia, Norway and Malta. I guess I'll make up my mind only on the night, or maybe I'll end up voting for them all
On the final the country that could join this list is Estonia!
