dcro 10,210 Posted March 17, 2021 #201 Share Posted March 17, 2021 Second listen done and dusted. Still feels like a very weird Annual. Up-beat songs are far less represented than usual. Lots of beautiful entries, though. Since there was a lot of movement on my scoreboard, I decided to keep all 30 remaining entries at this stage... #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

dcro 10,210 Posted March 17, 2021 #203 Share Posted March 17, 2021 Just for the sake of it, here are the (hidden) combined rankings after the two completed listens. Scores given in the last column are just those rankings multiplied. It is a system I borrowed from sport climbing. Listen I Listen II Score 1 1 1 2 2 4 3 5 15 6 3 18 4 7 28 7 4 28 5 13 65 8 9 72 9 12 108 12 10 120 22 6 132 14 11 154 20 8 160 13 15 195 11 19 209 15 16 240 10 27 270 19 17 323 17 21 357 18 22 396 29 14 406 16 26 416 30 18 540 28 20 560 24 25 600 27 23 621 26 24 624 21 30 630 23 29 667 25 28 700 heywoodu 1 #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I feel like it's highly impossible to rank 30 songs from 1 to 30 at the same time, because 5-6 songs in, you don't really remember the context why certain songs ranked low/high and which song should be better than the other. I imagine it's hell to listen to the final 5 songs and figure out where to place them correctly Slightly easier in smaller doses. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, considering I did not consult previous rankings before starting the second listen, I am reasonably happy that my Top 13 from the second listen are the same as Top 13 overall. And there is a good reason why that one song dropped from 10th to 27th. One major flaw came to my attention. #banbestmen Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm somewhat interested what caused a drop like that too bad my curiosity can't be fulfilled. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rybak 3,217 Posted March 19, 2021 Author #210 Share Posted March 19, 2021 The voting lines are now open! The host jury just send their votes to neutral user. This means that all 36 nations are right now allowed to send votes to host jury member (@rybak). You have to chose 12 best songs according you and also 3 reserve songs in case if an nation would miss sending votes on time, which I believe won't happen . The deadline of voting is Friday, 2nd April at 23:00 Central European Summer Time (GMT+2). Good luck everyone!
