BIG BROTHER 2021
SEMI-FINAL 2

Welcome back to the popular and "outrageous" game here on the ESC United Forum. The ESC Big Brother game is back and our members will have to keep their favorites safe and vote out their threads as there can only be one winner. Who will win the title of Big Brother 2021 champion? We'll find out soon.

I will be your host throughout this season and I hope you'll enjoy the game. Let me explain to you how the game will work, click on SPOILER to see the rules of the game.

- The game is based on the popular Big Brother Reality TV show

- Each round, three songs will be nominated for eviction and one of the songs will be eliminated from the game. During the Semi-Final stage, we will continue until we're down to 13 songs in each Semi.

- Unlike ESC, the Big 5 and Host are NOT guaranteed a spot in the Final, they have to fight their way through the Semis just like any other song so no special treatment here.

- Every round, our members will vote for ONE song that they want to nominate for elimination and ONE song that they would like to keep safe.

- Please vote for the song that you would like to nominate for eviction by casting your vote in the poll. The two countries with the highest number of votes will be nominated for eviction. Reminder: You can only nominate one entry so be smart and strategic about your vote.

- Please post in this thread and pick a song that you would like to grant immunity to. All you have to write (ex): I would like to grant immunity to MADAGASCAR. (obviously pick an ESC country instead)
At the end of the period, we will throw all of your votes in a hat and will randomly choose the country to receive immunity. So the more votes a country receives for safety, the higher their chance to be safe that round.

- Everyone that votes to grant immunity to a country, is automatically eligible to become the next Power of Veto holder. The person that holds that power has the ability to provide Safety to one of the three nominated songs. The POV winner will need to send @Matt a Private Message letting him know which of the three nominated songs should be safe. It is up to them to decide to share their decision or keep it a secret. The host will post the name of the Veto winner in this thread and also send a PM with further instructions.

- Starting in Round 2, we will also choose a HoH randomly. Every person casting a vote for Immunity for a country will become eligible to win the powerful postion. The HoH will be able to nominate a third country/song in addition to the two entries chosen by the public[

In a nutshell: Vote for the song that you would like to nominate for eviction in the poll, then post the country that you would like to grant immunity to by responding in this thread.

Ironic how this is the very message of the Swiss song: you can bend me, but I won't break.
Go along with your tactics, we'll meet in Rotterdam for the real thing

lol! It’s just a game. Don’t take it too seriously. I’d love to see Switzerland win “the real thing” for a change.

Hopefully & will be out, while & will be saved.

Switzerland is the only one I dislike here...

Bye Georgia!

Bulgaria is already eliminated so now the two best left are nominated to elimination and again one or two of my favourite can be out xD. I hope France and Iceland will survive tho I like Swiss song too and it's too early for them to be eliminated :/ and songs like Poland will qualify to the final. I guess The Ride is not good in opion of most people but it's not "overrated" so nobody cares and Rafał is "safe" again xD.

I hope Iceland and Switzerland will be out ...

The results are in, your votes are very much appreciated. Here are the results of today's vote

XXXXX 33.8%
XXXXX 32.3%
XXXXX 24.6%
XXXXX 9.2%

The Veto winner has used their power and removed one of the three nominees from the block.


As mentioned before, in the first twist of the season, TWO songs will eliminated tonight and I am ready to share with you the first song that is leaving us tonight...and that is..........


GEORGIA: Tornike Kipiani – You

Georgia received the most votes out of all eligible entries, remember one song was saved by the PoV, therefore finishes in 15


The second song that was eliminated will be revealed in the next post, stay tuned.

Okay, the second song, and basically the "victim" of this twist, that is leaving us tonight.....is............

Utterly disgusted to say the least.

Utterly disgusted to say the least.

Switzerland is my 3 points in my overall top10. I still believe that it's going to win it all in the end. So, better laughs who last laughs.
