They'll vote online but they still have to pay + they'll only add those votes as 1 country, meaning it'd be just 12 more points (and 10,8,7 etc...) Locked in a basement again?! / I ❤️ Teletubby.

I can f-ck the results at the end, like Europe wanted X singer to win because the song is loved by the majority of the people, but nah, the gays in the US decided that X singer should win, so they flood the votes and make them win Je ne parle pas français but I can padam if you like Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even if the US voted 1 million times for Norway they would only get 12 points. And they'll count every non participant country vote to give those 12 points. So if every non participant country votes for Italy for example and they get 1.000.001 votes for them, Italy would get the 12 points and Norway 10. Locked in a basement again?! / I ❤️ Teletubby.

StrawberryBlond 13,286 Posted November 22, 2022 Share Posted November 22, 2022 By "non-participating countries" and "global votes," does it mean countries outside Europe? Because I just thought it meant Euro countries that didn't make it to the final but the word global suggests we're talking worldwide. It seems nonsensical to have a European contest for Europeans by Europeans but any country can vote for it. I know Eurovision is international and they want to widen its appeal further but then it's just...an international singing contest? Albeit one that only features European nations? Just make a show that's international from the start instead of messing with the formula of an existing continent-specific one, basically. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

To be fair they've always changed the format and added countries, including non European ones Free my mind Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aussie 2,798 Posted November 23, 2022 Share Posted November 23, 2022 That is rubbish. “Global audience” voting for a European competition. You will have countries with large populations with ties with a particular participating country. This will make smaller countries like Malta, Cyprus, etc have even fewer chances of winning.

As we've already said they're only giving points as a country, so its only 12 more points. Locked in a basement again?! / I ❤️ Teletubby. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
