u/TWB1248

I have made some of the changes from the feedback, but if there is anything else that people think should change/if people want a dark mode version I can do that too. (also the contrast between the colours on some is quite poor and might not be colourblind friendly so lmk)

I'm going to work on the duo boon requirements now and maybe do Hermes

So yeah, as the title suggests, I'm going to start to create the boon flowcharts, beginning here with Aphrodite. Its on a white background because the boons in this game all have a stupid gradient to black which does not stand out AT ALL but lmk if it would be better on black. I will add these to the wiki asp

I'm playing a run with the vow of denial active and I have all of the prerequisites for All Together and it hasn't been blocked, but when I get a Hera boon only shared wealth is showing up?? Does anyone know what is going on???

Also, I have got proper upbringing and have used it, so I don't know why its showing up as blocked by vow of denial

I will eventually get back to the NQ Cup, but after the aftermath of this week has died down.

For now I want to do something similar to the eurojury (but more balanced, without bias and actually taking in the 4 criterias equally). Also I'm including AQs in the semis because I can.

The first 2 images are my results, equally weighting the 4 categories that juries judge on:

• Vocal performance (I am counting Linda's violin as vocals because it is also a live musical performance)
• Staging (how well it represents the song, how well executed it is etc...)
• Composition (the actual criteria I think is musical composition and originality which is how I judged it)
• Overall performance package

If you want to be one of the juries taken into account, you just need to be one of the first 17 people to either post as a comment or DM me your results with this link (this site allows you to weight different categories to produce an overall ranking of selected songs. It's incredible. Would recommend):

The link here is my results so just mess with the order of the 4 categories to get the overall.

Top 13 of each semi will qualify into our ideal grand final (from the jury's perspective)

(also I know I typically exclude Israel from these and I did consider it but then there would only be 16 in this semi. You can choose if you actually rank them or not)

Our final group BEFORE THE FINALE!! This is actually so much worse than the previous group it's actually mad

Please can anyone who sees this vote - it's been proven since last round that less voters means worse results

Voting still is 12 pts, 10, 8, 6, 4, 3 pts, 2, 1

Top 5 will go through. This rounds entries are:
Czechia 2025
Australia 2024
Montenegro 2022
Croatia 2022
Austria 2022
Malta 2023
Romania 2021
Denmark 2024
Georgia 2023
Poland 2020

Guys I am not happy with these results. Not just personally (though I do have some personal gripes), but because they contradict SO MANY OTHER RESULTS so far. For example, Ela (8th) beat Milkshake Man (5th) in the most recent group before this so...

I was contemplating just to not post this anymore because the recency bias is actually mad, but at the same time, I might just being really salty about some of my favourites being gone (although I do still love all the qualifiers) so it also might be that the standard is really high, and I was just going to be disappointed no matter what. I am also permanently exhausted right now so that might have had something to do with it.

I lowkey feel how we all felt after semi 1 last year

Anyway :)

Congrats to:
Latvia 2023
Czechia 2024
Ireland 2022
Montenegro 2025
Australia 2025

The rest were so SO SO CLOSE to the final!
