    Hello again, so it seems the game will happen. I have mixed already the songs from 1956 to 2007, the rest (2008-2012) will be added soon, so I can clearly say we will start the game next week :P.

    Now I made this Thread to decide how the game will be. It would be impossible to put all songs together and ask to vote for them all at same time of course, so my first thought was making duels of 1 song vs one song, where one that get more votes goes on and the other out, but there are to many songs and that would take a long long long time so that won't happen :P.

    So first of all the songs will be divided into semi finals, where the top 10 will go to the next round and the others will be out.

    Now what I need to ask for you to decide are several topics, lets start with the first one:
    • How many songs should it be on each semi?

    Option 1 - 15 songs

    Option 2 - 20 songs

    It can't be more than that otherwise people would complain to many songs to rank and to listen at same time, in my opinion 20 songs would be better as half will go on and the other half would be out, though i let you choose.
    • Should there be a second chance round?
    Option 1 - Yes

    Option 2 - No

    The Second Chance Round basically consists on the 11th place of each semi going into a Second Chance Semi where 10 would be saved. Once Again I let you decide this.
    • How should be the voting of this first Round
    Option 1 - Rank your top 10 awarding the 12, 10, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1 points system like in esc, this one has the advantage of being quicker, having a more accurate voting result, though as disadvantage it would be less interactive.

    Option 2 - Same way as the previous games such as song of 90s, 80s, where you vote the two you like the least each day until we have only 10 songs on each semi, this has the advantage of being more interactive but as the disadvantage of being really slow (based on the fact it would take 10 days to end each semi) and the results wouldn't be as much as accurate.

    p.s. - If we pick for this First Round one way of voting we can have the other one on the Round 2 when there will be less songs.

    Thank you in advance and please tell me your opinions on this :D

    p.s.s. - The Poll allows multiple responses, so please keep on mind only vote on one per question asked thank you.

    I'm the only one who voted for 15 songs and no second chance (until now). I must be special :P
  3. Jonas Persson EURO NEURO

    Sorry Mina, your not alone anymore for voting for 15 songs. Does this make u unspecial now, or does it makes me special with u? <3
  4. Mina Member with a "past"

    No, I'm still the special one because I'm still alone in the no second chance option :P

    all the songs are ready 1956 till 2012, it will start on Monday, or maybe on weekend we will see, as for this poll is closed so this is how it will be:

    the first round will be divided on semi finals with 20 songs each, you will vote eurovision style 12pts till 1pt, the top ten will go into the next round, the 11th place will go into a second chance semi final and the other 9 will be eliminated from the game!

    so, see you when the game starts!

    p.s. - There has been 1.280 songs in Eurovision

    Well this all seems to have happened really quickly today and I have missed the voting :(. However I'm not actually bothered how many songs are in each semi final and I would have voted for the escChat (Eurovision) option anyway, so I'm happy.

    However, could I make a plea for the same (12, 10, 8 etc) way of voting in Round 2 as well? It seems to me that, when we do the voting out your least favourite song, we end up with some sort of compromise winner - the least worst, or the one that's fairly acceptable to most people, and I think the other way might give us a more realistic winner.
