You previously stated repeatedly that you wanted this to be a ranking game, not a strategic game.

This not a ranking game, this favorite game and now everyone has the opportunity to do anything to win his favorite
If you experience for your favorite, then it is not necessary, because the game is fair and the outcome unpredictable (to the game returned not my favorite Moldova and eliminated my favorite Romania)

Sorry I don't quite understand your answer.
1. You've stated several times a few weeks ago that you wanted this to be a serious game. For that reason you've removed and disqualified San Marino from the game for a few hours, because you felt that the votes for it "were not serious" and that "this is a serious game". But now it looks like a strategic game.
2. What if I have only 1 favorite and the favorite is in the current top 5. Then who should I give the white card to?

I think you should have outlined that clearly from the start, what the entire game would consist of (which parts).
It's now getting messy and confusing.

It's obvious that San Marino will be kicked. So sad. :(

Mozz I have previously said that the game will be twists and turns, if I told them in detail in advance - it would not be interesting. The strategy is only needed in this mini-game and the "indirect" because it is impossible to predict anything.

This is what I mean with messy: the game has suddenly changed its character.

As soon as 'negative votes' are introduced, the normal voting procedure is changed.

If this were an ordinary vote - this would be very boring.
Character of the game has not changed - the favorite, who by coincidence has left the game - back (as with Moldova)
The results of the mini-game will be dramatic in any case, because it would take one of the favorites, but not this was with 21 countries?

Trece wrote: "I do not believe that you have only one favorite, because I know otherwise, but what about Finland and Bosnia?
I understand that you are afraid of the possible results of this mini-game, but in the top 5 all my favorites (look in my signature)
And in general - it's just a game and it does not solve anything."

Who my favorites are in this game is not for you to decide. Only I decide who is my favorite in this game. I knew that Finland and Bosnia would not get far.
But the exact favorites of you and of me are not important. It's about the basic character of the game. You've changed it while you previously stated that this was meant to be a serious voting game and should not be like the Big Brother game.

And secondly: you wrote "And in general - it's just a game and it does not solve anything.". Then what is the purpose of this game? Then why have people been taking their time to think and vote? You want this game to be taken seriously, you want people to participate, but now you say "It's just a game". It's....weird.

And overall I sense so much inconsistency.

Games in any case, this is a game. I meant that the real contest results are not affected. Games invented to interest. This game is no exception, and unexpected turns just warm up the interest and excitement. Maybe not in your case, but I'm curious. Everyone was very intrigued by who chooses Juhis, I was sure that it will be the country of the top three that Serbia has taken its place. However, her choice was unexpected
In any case, no one is forcing to spend time and participate in the game. Thank, i go on sleep, good bye! ;)

That's funny... some days ago you were analizing Metafeller's favourites because of his options in a pure STRATEGIC game... it now seems you've learned something about (not doing) it :mrgreen:

O please, in Metafeller's top 42 he had San Marino at 15 and Finland and Bosnia in his bottom 5. That is a WIDE difference.

My 3 favorites San Marino, Finland and Bosnia are much closer to one another, BUT I knew that in Trece's game the latter two (Bosnia and Finland) did not have much chance so I let them go a while ago.

This new way of voting is total crap, but I may as well see it through to the end.

Black : San Marino
White : Serbia

I think it is not yet certain that San Marino will be removed.
Do not forget that someone has acquired immunity giving opportunities. It is possible that San Marino fan holds there rights.
I would recommend San Marino fans not to give up.
Also I do not think vote results will be so clear.

Personally I think that if San Marino wins this game it's the biggest joke of all. This game is already about strategy, long before Trece decided this new twist in the game. In any so-called 'serious' ranking poll this song hardly skips the bottom places.
