SEMI FINAL 2 - DISCUSSION

[Dessi]

Hum, I don't think Sweden will win, from what I've read her performance was pretty bad :?

No it wasn't bad. She just lost a couple of words but she recovered pretty quickly.

According to this, Slovenia and Bosnia were tied for 10th place

How on Earth have the results been released before the final?? I really don't believe this is true, sorry. But yeah, it was probably Slovenia...

"The jury and televoters did not agree on the countries ranked seventh through tenth. According to our source, Malta and Estonia need to thank the jury for pushing them into the final, while Lithuania and Bosnia owe their spot in the final to the televoters. Our source claims that Bosnia tied with its Balkan ally Slovenia for the tenth spot."

Wow, stunning, isn't it?

Turkey 2nd? This is very weird!

 

[AlekS]

Every effin year we have these fake "leaked" results
Anyway, Loreen will get enormous support from televoters so I'm not worrying for her even if the juries place her 2nd or even 3rd.

 

[KeucFan]

I think it's fake too, but I posted it here, so we can compare it at the end

 

[Raniee]

THANK YOU, ordbok!! I hope the juries may give high scores to Loreen anyway!

Turkey 2nd? This is very weird!

I'm most stunned by Lithuania's result, helped by the televoters, at 7.

Geee, maybe I am very disconnected from the general audience....

It doesn't matter if it ended at 7, it still ended in the qualifying 10, which is reason enough for me to scratch my head.

It could be fake leaked results.

Still nice to have some dramatic gossip.

 

[vavera4ka]

Even though the two jury picks and 2 voting pics and two countries tied for 10 all see plausible, i question that report because it's hard to believe that Turkey beat out Serbia in such a Balkan semifinal.
I can bet big money that Serbia was no lower than 2nd. Loreen's song was so exposed all over Europe that i can believe her beating Zeljko, but only her. Definitely not Turkey.

 

[CypriotGirl]

OMG, this is scary!

oh i'm right with you. this list has three "wff" moments for me:
1 Turkey over Serbia
2 Ukraine at 4th (she was horrible! though song is catchy. i still can't get the 'na-nanana-na" and dudes in skirts out of my head, but FOURTH????)
3 Lithuania not 10th i was flabbergasted by it making the finals and now this tries to tell me it was 7th? no freaking way!

I've have been feeling like that for ages

 

[Mozz]

I always feel I have some sense about what the audience likes and dislikes but these events turn my world (view) upside down. In a rather harsh way .

Hmmm, forgive me if I'm sceptical of unattributed "ESC insiders". Could be some blogger making **** up.

 

[Matt]

The blog who posted the alleged Semi results tweeted

I have no idea if my source is telling the truth. But he's in with the people who tally the votes, so I trust him

 

[Haustor]

Well I have heard that Croatian HoD said that Croatia missed final by 0.5 points and as you know there are no half points in ESC which means that they probably lost tie-breaker to 10th place Malta (in this version of rumor).
I guess we will know results after the finals.

I do find it weird that first rumor said that Bosnia made it thanks to televoting as our song is more geared toward juries and not very televote friendly.

yeah, but u were with us and Serbia. trust me, that possibility is very likely (that u had good televoting results)

 

[aletem]

There are so many rumors!

 

[Grinch]

Turkey over Serbia?
