To all those saying that I'm a Plugger35 alias.. I've only voted for him twice (total 5 points) I do often put his songs on my shortlist though...

Most billied goes to MCXIV with two billies (and no actual votes for your songs).

Other random stats:
* I have given my 5 points to the winner on two occasions: "Always" - Panama, "Feel It Still" - Portugal. The Man. Overall I have contributed to the crowning of 10 podiums.
* I have given my billy to 3 people who actually did get the billy that round
* raskolnikov is the other person whom I have given my 5 points to on two occasions
* I have given votes to 31 different people. Only three of you received a billy from me and no votes.
* On two occasions I have given 4 points to somebody who ended up getting the billy

I'll keep my spreadsheet as up to date as I can. May post an update when I've been in for a lot more Rounds!

MWPP did something similar quite a few rounds ago.
I've finally summed up all my own votes in a spreadsheet, including billies, and found out some stats about who I vote for the most etc. I can't do the reverse because not everybody reveals their votes and/or spreadsheet when they host.

This Round is only my 13th (obviously stats are from 1-12), so I don't really have enough for some concrete stats. But still interesting nonetheless.

Tied for #1 - BRAB and Bet on Blue whom I have voted for five times, for a total of 15 points each. BRAB has received two lots of 5 points from me. I also once billied BoB...
Tied for #2 - MWPP and Sozabarus - I have voted for your songs 4 times, however given MWPP 12 points in total and Soza has 10.
And tied for #3 is Chappyuk, roo2macca and NinjaSwan - I have voted for your songs 3 times each. Chappy on 11 points, roo on 7 and NS on only 4 total points (and I billied you once).

More to come...

I wouldn't be shocked if I've voted for your songs the most.

The Kasabian Song sounded so oddly familiar to me and then I read it was from a Toyota ad.

Reckon "Songs you've heard in an Ad" would be a fun theme.

You don't tend to listen to Kasabian?

It seems to be the case as of late!

 

[The Filth Wizard]

I've never seen you this upset

I'm quivering.

That's the thing right?

 

[BRAB]

I'd guess I've listened to their music passively over time but I've never listened to an album start to finish for example.

No, no it wouldn't.

 

[BRAB]

No, no it wouldn't.

It is a fantastic idea.

 

[Agent93]

Can we knock something on the head, right now?

We can, but the host did make the distinction after it was asked for clarification between song or artist.

Edit: and then was really cross about it being brought up.

While we're talking about rules and conventions, what's the penalty for not changing your avatar after winning the Billy?

Since you're a bit of a subject matter expert, in lieu of an official ruling, I think you should decide.

 

[GreyCrow]

BTW the person who nommed Gerling - I added the other video that's uploaded for it because it has better sound quality. You can thank me later

There is none

If anyone ever does it when I host, I won't accept their nom until they change it.

 

[Ulahoopski]

I specifically asked for virgin songs. The word is relevant in my perspective of the lexicon. I like Ulahoopski a mother****ing heap but he's not really my cultural reference for the use of the English language. I also find it weird you have an issue with it now but not when you put in your nom of which the artist has been put up closer to twenty times than one time.

Apart from that, never change. I dig you heaps

With love,

Big Daddy Filth.

In the case of "virgin" I AM your cultural reference for it's use in the Songcontestish language. It was coined in opposition to the plethora of whore bands that were and still are nominated most bloody rounds. Virgins are there to expand everyone's musical pleasure through diversity. Gimme 100 General's noms over each Foo Fighters nom thanks.

Im going one step further and nominating a song on their behalf.

My intuition was the same as NaturalDisaster . But if I really had the authority to make the rules, a ban for as many rounds as billy votes received. e.g. 8 Billy votes results in an 8 round ban.

Bit harsh imo, it's just an online game we play for fun, that would be taking it a bit serious.

Maybe they get votes automatically docked, depending on how many billy votes they got? so 8 billy votes, they start the next round on -8.

Did you misspell 'plague'?

It's daddy's house, daddy's rules.

What a terrible idea.

What a terrible idea.

All my ideas are great, I don't do bad ideas.
