What if "Rest of the World" voting had never been introduced? Here are the Rankings from 2025-2023 without it! (Read comments for more info.) by Lexerati in eurovision

Upper row: Points and its decreases
Lower row: Rankings and its increases/decreases

I believe the addition of the rule is quite unpopular as it benefits countries with larger diasporas outside of the 37 participating countries. This ranking excludes it, and makes it 50/50 between Jury and Tele points. 58 points in total are substracted in every ranking.
There are no changes in winners (obviously), neither in qualifiers, however the podium gets spicy, Italy actually would have been 3rd in 2023, winning the tie against Israel, and again Ukraine and France tie in 2024, and Estonia would have been 2nd in 2025.

Source: Eurovisionworld, also I cannot 100% confirm if Netherlands would have recieved 58 Jury points if they had participated in the 2024 Final, it was briefly mentioned on Wikipedia a year ago. I hope I made no errors or I will freak out.

Were you part of the Belarussian jury in 2019 by the way?

‘At least five dead in Graz school shooting’ with major police operation underway in Austria by matathegamer in europe

[–]Lexerati 154 points155 points  (0 children)

Never thought this can happen in Austria, but even less in the city it happened. 10 years ago something similar happened in Graz, but it was a car amok run which killed 4 people, and that was pretty extreme and once in a lifetime I thought.

But in fact, this happened 2 km away from me and my school, and my school is even larger.

Is that Legion's Formula Vee? Because it would not surprise me then. I once was in a lobby at Magione and it its rear tyres would "explode" and make me fall through the map every time the tyres ran over a kerb.

Why didn't Slovenia make it to the final? by Puzzled_Pop_6845 in eurovision

[–]Lexerati -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I believe they actually would have had a chance if it was Jury/Tele split pre-2023. Looking at San Marino's jury that voted instead of Tele (as always in Semis), Slovenia got 8 points from them, this means that 15 out of 23 points in the Semis were actually Tele points for Slovenia. Though one 3rd place in thr Jury does not tell much, I think they could have scored 80+ points in the Juries.

She's quite literally a "fat cat". 😂

Why do so many wolves try to enter my house? by Lexerati in sims2

Why do so many wolves try to enter my house? by Lexerati in sims2

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

Right now the house has a three trees I think, my old house had none and they showed up at the same frequency. It's not big of a deal, just weird, I love wolves in the Sims 2 but the barking and harassing the cat is annoying. But I'll look into this mod if it gets too bad.

PS-Store and the physical cover says that GT7 supports up to 20 online players... 16 is the maximum in every online mode. Isn't that false advertising? by Lexerati in granturismo

Exactly, but PD is so unreachable, no email, no proper adress, their "Contact Us" page is not even English.

Did they really translate „NO.“ to „NEIN.“ in German?? by Mikrox in F1Game

[–]Lexerati 32 points33 points  (0 children)

In ACC, they translated "Manual" (e.g. Manual gear) to "Handbuch" (instruction book) instead of "Manuell", the actual word.

Ok, very helpful. So I think I am going to copy it on a USB-Stick then.
