Nah I've been talking with other members and (even though the claims were vague and unsubstantiated) there were concerns about judges also being participating entries so I've decided to trial run 5 completely impartial judges this time around... it's annoying because it's something I enjoy, and especially annoying since it was such an unfounded criticism, but there you go. If I absolve myself of the responsibility then what else can I do.

With that in mind: the fifth and final judge is Josy :spin2:

I don't think you needed to step down as a judge personally, you've always been very modest about your own entry. On the bright side, if anything, now you'll get to see just how great your standard of entry is without your own judge scores bringing you down :laugh:

NAWT Josy coming for my head judge spot.

impartial is Josy's middle name :laugh:

Thinking about it if we follow the new IRL Eurovision format where the judges give 1-7, 8, 10 and 12 and then combine all votes together then we could have a scoreboard for the jury points

Good idea Tom. I might make the scoreboard again this year.

I just had an idea about my entry tbh

It's going to be raw and beautiful imo

I have my entry already written, seeing as how TiBB Dansk Melodi Grand Prix won't happen anytime soon. Still have to record it too, and I'll try to utilise my voice in different ways; so it will be a full a cappella song.

Australia's Song and Artist Announcement!
 

Dah Me! set to represent Australia in Eurovision 2016

Australian broadcaster, SBS, has announced Dah Me! will represent Australia at the Eurovision Song Contest 2016 in Westside! After Mollie wowed TIBB with a win as Australia’s first ever TIBB Eurovision contest, Australia is back for another dose of Eurovision glitz and glamour, and another shot at Eurovision glory.

Dah Me! is set to sing a song titled Sound of Typing, which is about the struggles that he has to suffer because of UK/AU timezone differences on TIBB. "The song truly captures the challenge that is living in Australia and wanting to be part of such a great forum targeted for the other side of the world." Dah Me! told us at the announcement ceremony. The song will be revealed on the night of the contest and it promises to be a true Eurovision performance!

I have recorded the official song and my song for this. I am really excited for you all to hear these songs.

Done mine

Two entries already received :D thanks Niamh & Glenn

:love:

I still don't know what I'm doing yet :worry:

Hmm, I should probably start thinking about writing my song soon.

how does this work, writing your song?

Usually people take a song and rewrite the lyrics to suit the original tune

I have no choice but to unfortunately pull out I've been to busy with work to even consider starting my song

Did you get my song?

.

3 weeks and 2 days to go :spin2: I should probably start drafting ideas for my song...

well i also need my song now i guess :worry:

Oh god I still have no idea what I'm doing :worry:

I started a song this week... hopefully it pans out :fc:

I was really worried because I hadn't checked the thread in a while and thought I'd made the event the week before Eurovision but thankfully we have loads of time :hee:
