Eurovision 2018 Sweepstakes (Revealed!)

[Shaun]

A bit late but I'm surprised no one else has done it already...

So since it's so late (aka, the first semi-final starts in less than an hour), I'll just use the countries that make the final (26) and if we have more than 26 members interested, some will double up :spin2:

There's no award for it, it's just for fun.

I've just chucked in 17 names who are the most recent (different) members to post in the Eurovision thread, to make up a full 26 finalists, but I will of course leave the thread open for anyone else to join - I can either give duplicates, or give out every of the 2nd semifinalists including the ones that don't qualify.

[Calderyon]

Thank you for including me. :love:

- TwentyOneThrones

Since they've expressed some form of interest in Eurovision this year (ie. they've posted in the thread, or in the TiBB version :laugh:)

I'll do the draw now!

[Shaun]

The way I'll do it thusly:

- Use https://www.random.org/lists/ to randomise the 26 countries. Doing so now, gives me an order of:

20 Sweden Benjamin Ingrosso "Dance You Off" English
14 Czech Republic Mikolas Josef "Lie to Me" English
10 Serbia Sanja Ilić & Balkanika "Nova deca" (Нова деца) Serbian[d]
04 Lithuania Ieva Zasimauskaitė "When We're Old" English[a]
11 Germany Michael Schulte "You Let Me Walk Alone" English
25 Cyprus Eleni Foureira "Fuego" English[c]
26 Italy Ermal Meta & Fabrizio Moro "Non mi avete fatto niente" Italian
19 Moldova DoReDoS "My Lucky Day" English
06 Estonia Elina Nechayeva "La forza" Italian
21 Hungary AWS "Viszlát nyár" Hungarian
07 Norway Alexander Rybak "That's How You Write a Song" English
22 Israel Netta "Toy" English
13 [b]France Madame Monsieur "Mercy" French
18 Bulgaria Equinox "Bones" English
17 Finland Saara Aalto "Monsters" English
16 Australia Jessica Mauboy "We Got Love" English
12 Albania Eugent Bushpepa "Mall" Albanian
15 Denmark Rasmussen "Higher Ground" English[e]
02 Spain Amaia & Alfred "Tu canción" Spanish
24 Ireland Ryan O'Shaughnessy "Together" English
08 Portugal Cláudia Pascoal[h] "O jardim" Portuguese
05 Austria Cesár Sampson "Nobody but You" English
01 Ukraine Mélovin "Under the Ladder" English
09 United Kingdom SuRie "Storm" English
03 Slovenia Lea Sirk "Hvala, ne!" Slovene[g]
23 Netherlands Waylon "Outlaw in 'Em" English

And since there are 41 members in the list, that means the first 15 countries in this list will have two members as its sweepstake. Meaning the following 11: Australia, Albania, Denmark, Spain, Ireland, Portugal, Austria, Ukraine, UK, Slovenia and the Netherlands - will have just one member as their sweepstake.

I'll now randomise all 41 members and give the first 26 that come up, that country in the order. 1st member = Sweden, 2nd = Czech Republic, etc. For the 27th member, they will get Sweden, 28th will get Czech Republic... etc.

So without further ado... here are the results :pipe:
