So cruel for Guyana to be the highest rated non-podium finisher to date. That's some bad luck.

 

And finally we have "Juries Who Awarded Their 12 Points To This Song: Croatia, Slovenia". Yes this just does not happen. I think this is the only such song in the Top 40, Open or Annual.

Alright, time for one of my crazy suggestions. For this year’s team trophy I propose a modified omnium consisting a four legs.

 

Leg 1 (10 jury votes) - Scratch Race: Teams are rewarded for total points accumulated by randomly selected representative (different nation for each leg) during this leg. Omnium points are then awarded based on the ranking. 1st Place = 50 points, 2nd Place = 45 points, 3rd Place = 40 points, 4th Place = 35 points, and so on by decreasing intervals of five points.

 

Leg 2 (10 jury votes) - Frequency Contest: Teams are rewarded for the amount of times they are awarded points by national juries. The amount points does not matter*, only the total number of juries that give the randomly selected representative points over this leg. A perfect leg would see a team’s representative earn the points from all 10 juries for example. A ranking will be created based on frequency of scoring. Omnium points are then awarded based on that ranking. 1st Place = 50 points, 2nd Place = 45 points, 3rd Place = 40 points, 4th Place = 35 points, and so on by decreasing intervals of five points.    
*= Since there’s a heightened possibility of ties in this leg, points would be used as the tiebreaker. First tiebreaker would be number of 12 points awarded to each jury. Second, would be the number of 11 points awarded to each jury, and so on until we get to the number 1 points awarded to each jury. 
 

Leg 3 (11 jury votes) - Elimination Race: Teams are rewarded for the running total points accumulated by randomly selected representative over this leg. The first elimination would occur after the third jury vote in this leg. At that point, the representative with the lowest total leg score would be eliminated and finish the leg in 10th place. An elimination would then take place after each subsequent jury vote. There would only be two representatives left at the end of leg, at which point the representative with the highest total points would be awarded victory. Omnium points would then be awarded based off the final ranking, 1st Place = 50 points, 2nd Place = 45 points, 3rd Place = 40 points, 4th Place = 35 points, and so on by decreasing intervals of five points.

*= In case there are multiple teams with no points after the third leg, those teams are all eliminated at that point (with subsequent eliminations being delayed until the number of remaining competitors catches up to the original formula), with the tiebreaker being total points at the end of the leg.

 

Leg 4 (10 jury votes) - Points Race: Teams are given the total amount of points earned by their randomly selected representative over this stage. The points earned by that representative are then added to the team’s omnium total for their final score. Final rankings are determined by the total points earned by each team after the four legs.

 

Thoughts? 

For the Team Challenge I guess we are going with this.

Here are the teams:

PRAGUE STAGS - , , , , 

BRNO SWANS - , , , 

OSTRAVA OTTERS - , , , 

PILSEN BOARS - , , , 

ÚSTÍ NAD LABEM WOLFS - , . , 

ČESKÉ BUDĚJOVICE FOXES - , , ,

HRADEC KRÁLOVÉ HARES - , , ,

PARDUBICE PIKES - , , ,

OLOMOUC MOLES - , , ,

LIBEREC SALAMANDERS - , , ,

 

There are two things to decide. What happens with the 5th member of the Prague Stags? And how do we determine which member performs the individual phases (scratch, tempo, elimination, points race)?

EDIT: I guess for the second question we can make a random draw. If the drawn team members is set to vote during that stage, another random draw is done to find someone who is not voting then.
