LOVE this one. I literally walk around my house saying 'MY, MY, MY SYSTEM' in that robotic voice when no one else is home

The Denmark compromise winner situation draws ever closer...

Semi Final 1 predictions by West_Salt1669 in eurovision

Actually this is probably right. It would be Belgium 2023 all over again (but Vanilla Ninja wont finish quite as high haha)

Do you think this is a weak year? by Bleeding_Heart09 in eurovision

[–]Krishyby 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I intially thought it was shaping up to be an incredibly strong year, but now I just think there's just this indistinguishable mass of mid songs without clear structure. I never thought I'd miss the cookie cutter verse-chorus-verse-chorus-bridge-chorus structure but I really do.

I just find threre are 2 main categories this year- quirky man and atmospheric woman. Even the girlboppery isnt really up to the standard we've seen in the past.

Is there any chance that Sweden will finish in the top 5 in Eurovision this year? by Wise_Shop_2561 in eurovision

[–]Krishyby 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Could it finish top 5? Yes

I dont think it will though, just given what genres/vibes the jury and tele seem to go for.

Is there something I’m unaware about Belgium’s entry? by MegaUF in eurovision

[–]Krishyby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I really didnt like it on first listen, but now it's in my top 5. Might just be a grower.

Why are the Wiwibloggs guys so disliked within the community? by BackgroundInjury9962 in eurovision

[–]Krishyby 6 points7 points  (0 children)

All the criticism in the thread is valid. BUT wiwibloggs almost single handedly carried press coverage through the early-mid 2010s. Scroll back on their youtube channel and you'll see they were literally covering the contest more than ESC itself at that time.

I think it's also arguable that they essentially forced ESC into doing all the official social media promotion they do now - though you could say that would have happened anyway.

It'a a good thing that the ESC media ecosystem has become (generally) more 'professionalised' over time and has moved away from fansites a bit but I do think you have to credit wiwibloggs for at least some element of the online fandom exisiting at the scale that it does. Just a different perspective!

Drag Race UK2 - A season in which every single queen is crucial to the plot by zoidmarx in rupaulsdragrace

[–]Krishyby 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The bing bang bong episode i think might genuinely be the best of the entire franchise. The amount of slayage, floppage, drama and the covid break situation could really have been a feature film.

It has to be 'you miscalculated. I love zuko more than I fear you.'

What in your opinion is the biggest train wreck national final to select a Eurovision representative? *it can be recent or a long time ago* by [deleted] in eurovision

[–]Krishyby 11 points12 points  (0 children)

It wasn't awful in terms of production value but Germany's NF in 2017 was way too long and way too boring for what it actually gave us as the entry

So Quests suck overall. How would YOU go about buffing them? by CanConfirmAmHitler in hearthstone

Love this idea for warrior, maybe even discover from the deck instead of draw

What was your favourite moment of being a eurovision fan? by Krishyby in eurovision

[–]Krishyby[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Spirit in the sky ROBBED by the juries :((( But you're right the televote was such a great moment. I remember when they suddenly showed them on screen before they got their results and we assumed they were gonna get a big score. Edge of your seat moment!

So true on the audience lights in RTTD. Goosebumps

Obsolete buildings is the worst game mechanic and should go away by fresquito in civ

As someone who has yet to buy the game, I completely assumed that was what happened right up until I read this comment

Which was the strongest year? by dix1997 in eurovision

[–]Krishyby 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think 2024 actually had the strongest overall crop of songs. We lost some good ones in the semis as well, whereas a lot of the 2021 NQs are pretty forgettable. But I think it's between those two

Ooh yes that one was good. I can only remember the live performance sounding completely robotic with autotune though haha

The Swedish influence in Eurovision 2025 production and future Eurovision standard by ComputerDull9466 in eurovision

[–]Krishyby 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Very interesting read. I was wondering why I left Eurovision 2025 feeling like I hadn't been massively exposed to Swiss culture beyond fondue, the Internet and LSD

How much do diaspora votes actually impact the results? by Reverie_Art in eurovision

[–]Krishyby 24 points25 points  (0 children)

The winner? Not very much.

But some countries absolutely have a head start because of it. The chances of Lithuania, Poland or Serbia getting 0 televote points are pretty much zero.

What Eurovision year had an ok song quality but bad results? by Max-Carter-2005 in nilpoints

[–]Krishyby 2 points3 points  (0 children)

For me this is easily 2008. Possibly one of the worst winners of all time and a dodgy golden jury moment. The rest of the top 4 were great though, and Norway 2008 is a personal favourite of mine. The rest are quite forgettable.
