Russian Jury Voting

[DanielLuis]

I wouldn't really take this as granted as it's just a comment from a Croatian ESC webpage.

But if it's true, jury gave to . , .

jury

This is probably fake. I mean, it's from a comment in a fan site

This thread is entitled "Russian Jury Voting", not Bosnian... it seems that some people are just searching for excuses to attack Russia.

Have you even read this thread? There is footage of the 'professional' Russian jury in action, and then discussions over other countries jury votes, or have you just thread the title and first comment and gone in all guns blazing smashing away at your keyboard. It's not just Russia who is discussed. It's the lack of professionalism in the juries.

Well, if a video appears online and it appears to be from the Russian jury, of course I am going to mention that. I would've done the same with every other country. It's just not a smart move from Russia, this is extremely unprofessional.

or maybe they're just angry because the russian jury has been proven to be breaking the rules and livestreaming the performances? and the rumours about the bosnian jury all come from a comment on a fan forum and are probably completely unfounded? not everything is part of a huge conspiracy against russia

Well ... the #WesternESCFanMafia is still recruiting .. *cough* just sayin'

I really don't think this will be taken lightly, and I expect tomorrow we may hear something. Guess its the last thing they want on the day of the first Semi Final, though!

More leaks

Croatian fanpage site reports that it can be heard on the video that has apparently got from .

They're sure that EBU will punish them because they clearly broke the EBU rules with recording themselves and especially recording and performances.

I don't see "Azerbaijan jury voting" thread about Azerbaijan arresting jury members voting for Armenia or offering to pay Malta and Lithuania to award them 12 points?

I don't see "Azerbaijan jury voting" thread about Azerbaijan arresting jury members voting for Armenia or offering to pay Malta and Lithuania to award them 12 points?

Then someone would come up and say that we don't see Russian jury voting thread.

The first thing happened in 2009. Why does it make sense to talk about it now? The second thing has never been officially proven, besides is at issue recently in the Azerbaijan thread for the moment.

I don't get why you are so upset about this thread. It is clearly pointing something shouldn't have done and naturally this is what forums are for.

i do apologise, i'll hop into my time machine, zoom back a few years and make those threads for you now.

I actually addressed the thing last year, just so you know it's not only Russia I'm addressing.
Please see the thread below;

I can still get angry that these so called "fair juries" put each others enemy countries at the bottom. Which is the case with and .
In my opinion they should be disqualified, it's ridiculous.

I don't want to brag or something but THIS is the reason why I was against the jury voting. First - they don't judge the same performances as us, tele-voters. And second - they don't even give a fuck about the performances.

Are you convinced now or you will continue to be in denial?

We talked about them when they happened a few years ago though?? And the video shown clearly shows the Russian jury, what a nonsensical argument to make that this thread is "just another Russia-bashing thread"!

This is shameful though, there should be set rules for the juries. I'm sure there's enough room somewhere in Stockholm, or any host city, to keep each jury in a room, under an independent scrutineer, just as the voting (allegedly) is, and make sure that the job of being a jurist is taken seriously.

 

[nikolay_BG]

Actually, I want to thank the Russian jury for leaking this. Maybe we will finally get rid of the jury vote soon. #PowerToThePeople

 

[GWTW1939]

I really hope nobody is shocked by this. Its was pretty much common sense that that's what they do and we didn't need a video to show it although its nice to see it with our eyes so that even the most delusional can't ignore it

This is poor taste, especially with SF1 being tomorrow. I hope the EBU takes the right steps in this matter
