Taken countries:

SWEDEN

$1.01 odds of Abba, despite there being a lot of other choices

 

[NaturalDisaster]

A Redux then.

Redux is fine as long as the theme is open with plenty of options

Thoughts Smeg Head?

 

[SM]

Redux is fine as long as the theme is open with plenty of options

Not particularly open if it's one song per country but meh.

 

[NaturalDisaster]

Not particularly open if it's one song per country but meh.

Many many different options in different countries

 

[CakeEater]

ju jeni të gjithë duke luajtur për të dytë

Always knew Sa people spoke a foreign language

 

[SM]

Many many different options in different countries

Of course, but limiting like that encourages people to rush which isn't conducive to good noms. As already said, Sweden will likely be ABBA.

 

[Smeg Head]

I've wanted to do this theme for ******* ages and I don't GAF what any of you say, I'm doing it lol. Even though Eurovision was so two months ago. Smeg Head this one's for you lol

Theme is: EUROVISION COUNTRIES
[not Eurovision songs unless you want to - just has to be an artist from a country that has participated in Eurovision]

Here's the list of countries that have participated in Eurovision: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_countries_in_the_Eurovision_Song_Contest#Participants

CAVEAT - ONE NOM PER COUNTRY. First come first served.
No previous podiums

And no don't worry we're not doing the crazy 12,10,8.... system. Normal votes thanks.

Noms due Monday 9PM AEST.

I was going to lock the languange to non-English entries, don't like the first come first served country thing.

 

[BRAB]

Of course, but limiting like that encourages people to rush which isn't conducive to good noms. As already said, Sweden will likely be ABBA.

Most of my best noms are done within a single minute of the theme being announced, but I do recognise for mere mortals it may be more difficult.

 

[MWPP]

I’ll happily take 2nd /a rare podium
I would’ve struggled to host either this round or next one and I don’t even know if I’ll be able to enter them . I was going to sit out this entire week but now I’m the tempted because por_please_ya won.

I'm billying Australia. How lazy.

I'm billying Australia. How lazy.

What if you like the song?

 

[Ulahoopski]

Was about to nom for Sweden, and it was the polar opposite of Abba. As much as I respect ABBA, be pissed if they get a gig here.

 

[raskolnikov]

What if you like the song?

Then I may possibly ignore it. I'm not giving it votes.

It's ok. I've already got Sweden covered with Roxette.

You’d best be playing This round

 

[Ulahoopski]

Agree with Smeg Head - should have been limited to non-English noms.
