Semi 1 qualifiers - Harrow - 2006-07-29 6:00:25pm
- Hehehe...good show! Not what I expected result-wise but oh well :-) [R] - Jeremy - 2006-07-29 6:06:43pm
- I´m quite surprised by the results too :-/ [R] - LoboinMadrid - 2006-07-29 6:08:12pm
- Btw...is there a link for the entire list w/o having to go thru the entire show? [R] - Jeremy - 2006-07-29 6:08:30pm
- Where can I find them? I can't find the link in the site.. [R] - bkr - 2006-07-29 6:10:31pm

- Good show and yes at times hella annoying! :o)) - Alexander-NL - 2006-07-29 6:18:26pm
Most of the qualifiers I deserved I reckon, voted for five of them. My douze however did not make it, but that always happens in semis. :o)) My ten and eight made it though! :o) Congrats to those who made it and I'm sorry for your loss, those who didn't. But this was an amazingly tough semi so don't feel too bad. :o)
- ARE* deserved [R] - Alexander-NL - 2006-07-29 6:19:23pm
- LOL......my 12, 10, 8, 7 points didn't even qualify. So much for being mainstream :-))) [R] - Jeremy - 2006-07-29 6:22:24pm
- Your 7 *did* qualify btw :) [R] - Harrow - 2006-07-29 6:23:50pm
- So it did. :-))) [R] - Jeremy - 2006-07-29 6:28:17pm
- my 12-10-7-6 didn't qualify!!! (even though i was quite sure my 12 pointer wouldn't possibly qualify!) [R] - orionas - 2006-07-29 6:24:40pm
- I see my top 2 got through but there is one I am disappointed that never made it! - juliejWHAMBAMBOOM!!!! - 2006-07-29 6:22:37pm

you really should have made the final!
Boo on all of you for not voting enough for it ;) Boo! Boo! (I'm feeling very greek now) Boo!
;)))
- I agree 100%!!! (and i am greek!) [R] - orionas - 2006-07-29 6:26:13pm
- Well I'm sure one of your other entries *will* make it :-))) [R] - Jeremy - 2006-07-29 6:26:45pm
- Well, obviously, cause I'm already in the final ;-) [R] - Jonas - 2006-07-29 6:27:19pm
- Hence "one" :-) [R] - Jeremy - 2006-07-29 6:28:00pm
- It was one of my faves too... :(( [R] - Lota - 2006-07-29 6:28:13pm
- I was considering it as a possible top5 in final [R] - LoboinMadrid - 2006-07-29 6:31:38pm
- Yes, and I thought it would walk the semi... [R] - Jonas - 2006-07-29 6:35:36pm
- whoever wrote it must be in mmmm....Pain! But I agree with Jonas. [R] - rich - 2006-07-29 7:34:35pm
- I agree! Biggest tragedy of the 2st semi! soooo good! [R] - carly in lund - 2006-07-29 7:55:33pm
Are we allowed to actually say where our points went now? - juliejWHAMBAMBOOM!!!! - 2006-07-29 6:29:50pm
- No :-) [R] - Jeremy - 2006-07-29 6:30:23pm
- no, the order of 1-6 must be kept secret :) [R] - Harrow - 2006-07-29 6:30:34pm
- No, I mean our individual points - i.e. am I allowed to say what I gave my top 2 votes to??????? [R] - juliejWHAMBAMBOOM!!!! - 2006-07-29 6:31:35pm

I'm very surprised that 150 points isn't enough to qualify...although I'm guessing that the number will be lower for

the next 2 semis.
Just a hunch
:-)
- I'm not. - Timoteus - 2006-07-29 6:47:47pm
Last year with slighly less voters and slightly less songs sharing the pot:
Semi 1:
6. This Song Is Shite 150
7. How? 145
Semi 2:
6. My Song;) 153
7. Slice Of Bread 149
Last year, of course, top 8 qualified but top 6 was always going to be tougher to reach. The front runners weren't supposedly as clear in semis 2 and 3 so you might well be right that the 7th placed songs got less points there. We'll see soon enough. %-)
- *sniff* i am SO sad that my favorite entry of the 1rst semi DIDN'T qualify!! i was so sure it would [R] - angelos - 2006-07-29 7:10:13pm
- 2nd semi qualifiers.... - Harrow - 2006-07-29 7:00:15pm
- Wow...5 of my 6 predictions were spot on :-)) [R] - Jeremy - 2006-07-29 7:04:03pm
- Some good songs gone out - but still relatively happy - just praying for 3 particular songs in semi 3 to make it x [R] - David in Hull - 2006-07-29 7:14:00pm
- And i think there is a real stinker in the selected from semi2 [R] - LoboinMadrid - 2006-07-29 7:16:25pm
- Have to say I love em all :-) [R] - Jeremy - 2006-07-29 7:18:37pm
- Only 1? I have 3! - sorry no offence to any of the finalists [R] - David in Hull - 2006-07-29 7:20:19pm
- Only one? I found three! [R] - Richard_CT - 2006-07-29 7:21:13pm
- I'm more disapponted with the result in this one,,, [R] - Amutrejk - 2006-07-29 7:18:26pm
- what!!??? my favorite ALC entry only 2nd last? *sniff* :( [R] - angelos - 2006-07-29 7:23:24pm
- Sense a Two did *much* better than I expected :-) [R] - Jeremy - 2006-07-29 7:23:48pm
Amazing.

My ASFB-, ALC-, BFC- & BOTY- results are almost all the same, equally bad in the outcome ranking.
Am I predictable, or what? :-)
- I didn't vote for the BFC, ASFB, BOTY winners either :-) [R] - Jeremy - 2006-07-29 7:28:18pm
- I never have voted for any winner in any contest either :-) [R] - LoboinMadrid - 2006-07-29 7:29:29pm
- Not even for the hotties? [R] - kURt B - 2006-07-29 7:31:35pm
- Yeah, i think i voted Charlize :-) [R] - LoboinMadrid - 2006-07-29 7:45:40pm
- 6 points :o) [R] - Alexander-NL - 2006-07-29 8:25:42pm
- Coming to think of it, ALC is quite unique in that sense - Alexander-NL - 2006-07-29 7:31:07pm
I voted for both At The Tesco and Chernobyl (be it low points, 4 and 5 respectively), but those are the only winners I've voted for, including two BFC editions, ASFB and BOTY... Interesting. :o)
Greetings from Chicago ... sitting in my hotel room moaning about ...

... the tragedy that is "Je T'Adore"! What a shame! What a disgrace! Whoever wrote this gem, I feel forever sorry for you!
And "Pissadansen" - if only it had been drawn into another semi, it would be up there with the best of them.
As for the rest - as expected, I'm still a mainstream voter (if not writer ;).
- LOL! Hope you're keeping cool, the weather there is supposedly horrible. Enjoy the fab jazz clubs tho :-)) [R] - Jeremy - 2006-07-29 7:58:41pm
- Just had to return to the hotel because my shirt was not pink any more ... [R] - Thomas - who will fish me? - 2006-07-29 8:07:18pm
- LOLOL...I misread "shirt" for a second, and was like "what's he drinking there?" :-)))) [R] - Jeremy - 2006-07-29 8:16:52pm
- what about "barbie and ken" or "please i need help"? both lovely entries!! :) [R] - angelos - 2006-07-29 7:59:46pm
- I prefer the 2 he mentioned :-))) [R] - Jeremy - 2006-07-29 8:00:18pm
- Well, they did nothing for me, obviously - but there are others which I had hoped would do a lot better ... - Thomas - who will fish me? - 2006-07-29 8:06:18pm
... the poor soul who is behind "Granny On Speed" - let me hug you and kiss you all over for that most wonderful of intros you wrote. You got me in tears.
Can't see how this failed big way while the pleasant, but hardly original "Everything The Culinary Remix)" made it straight to the final in such a competitive semi!
And I can't believe that a theme as worne out as McCauls can still make it to the top! It's well written, sure, but ... congrats, anyway to both of you.
What about "No Gay Impossible?" One of the best parodies of gay illusions I've read in a long while ...
Really happy for most of the qualifiers, though!
- Wait, *another* MB comes to Chicago while I'm in Sweden. This is *so* unfair! [R] - carly in lund - 2006-07-29 8:00:11pm
- I agree 100% :(( [R] - Yair - 2006-07-29 8:00:50pm
- Je t'adore was fab fab fab!!! will (hopefully) remain an all times favorite ;) (for me) [R] - angelos - 2006-07-29 8:03:05pm
- One of the very best entries ever to grace ALC! [R] - Thomas - who will fish me? - 2006-07-29 8:08:08pm
- Strongly disagree.....it did FAR better than it deserved [R] - Jeremy - 2006-07-29 8:09:11pm
- I'm sure you would have appreciated it giving it a 2nd, 3rd or maybe 4th thought ;) [R] - Thomas pissadancing - 2006-07-29 8:17:29pm
- I thought it was inspired!!!!! [R] - juliejWHAMBAMBOOM!!!! - 2006-07-29 9:46:59pm
- A good effort, but I'm not sure that it was worth 10 points per word! :-) [R] - Nick D. - 2006-07-29 8:21:11pm
- LOL!!! [R] - Jeremy - 2006-07-29 8:22:43pm
- I loved it too! [R] - juliejWHAMBAMBOOM!!!! - 2006-07-29 9:46:23pm
Our last 6.... - Harrow - 2006-07-29 8:00:09pm
- Wow. Can't say I expected this six to qualify. Seems we'll have a corker of a final :-))) [R] - Jeremy - 2006-07-29 8:01:58pm
- And WOW. We have a null pointer....that sucks :-((( [R] - Jeremy - 2006-07-29 8:04:11pm
- We had 2 with 1 day left of voting [R] - Harrow - 2006-07-29 8:05:07pm
- Is this an ALC first? [R] - Jeremy - 2006-07-29 8:05:48pm
- No, Elin got a 0 in 2004 with Shame On You [R] - Harrow - 2006-07-29 8:06:30pm
- yay for the pigs [R] - ade - 2006-07-29 8:06:03pm
- tsk!inside your messages, ade! :) [R] - Harrow - 2006-07-29 8:06:46pm
- The most pleasing results of the 3 semis! - Well done to ALL qualifiers! [R] - David in Hull - 2006-07-29 8:08:37pm
Soooooooo...the biggest loser of the C/A's has to be Torneo, and the winners are Moja Stikla and to my utter surprise

Germany 82, which is so old
And the last qualifiers saved the fate of the gay-based entries, otherwise we'd only have one.
Interesting ;-)
Your favourite non-qualifier?

- Maybe the zombies haven't taken you over yet. ;o)) [R] - Alexander-NL - 2006-07-29 8:30:55pm
- If we are allowed to say - 'Torero' - but it was in the best semi, so hard luck [R] - David in Hull - 2006-07-29 8:23:21pm
- According to the points I gave......Food and Torero. [R] - RogerF - 2006-07-29 8:25:13pm
- Also....Pissa would have sailed in the other 2 semis...pity [R] - Jeremy - 2006-07-29 8:25:20pm

Are your jap-eyes red tonight?
I'm quite surprised that didn't make it, i thought it was a sure fire qualifier. [R] - Luke - 2006-07-29 8:41:03pm
- Me too! I lost a lot of my favourites in semi 1 - the group of death!! But still pleased my overall fave made it! [R] - David in Hull - 2006-07-29 8:43:17pm
Personal ALC statistics ...

Semi 1:
- 4 of the qualifiers in my top 6, 1 more in the top 10.
Semi 2: 3 of the qualifiers in my top 6, 2 more in the top 10.
Semi 3: 4 of the qualifiers in my top 6, 1 more in the top 10.
Now that's what I call mainstream .
- Ah let's see for me ... - Ben NL - 2006-07-29 9:46:51pm
semi 1: my top 3 qualified, 2 of the 3 other qualified got points. Highest non-qualifier was 'Ugly Girl' ...
semi 2: my top 2 qualified, just 2 other qualifers got points (but not that much) .. highest non-qualifier was 'Je t'adore, but you told me no eh bien zut alors' .. ;-)
semi 3: my 12-pointer qualified, and the songs that got 3 and 7. 'Kathmandu' here got my 10 :-)
There's one thing I'd be eager to find out about the ALC semi scoreboards...

...and that is whether many voters gave One Point exactly that - 1 point -AND how well the author of One Point managed to keep his/her promise of giving two points back.
I actually considered giving the text six points for the fun of it regardless of whether I found it worth more/less/any to be able to claim a douze (and complain if I didn't get one) but then I realised the text didn't promise double the amount back, it promised two points. :-( :P
- was that pruzzo-timotean? *giving it another try to understand* [R] - angelos - 2006-07-29 8:57:47pm
- Bla bla bla bla bla bla. Can't you see grammar's useless? %-) [R] - Timoteus - 2006-07-29 8:59:33pm

I have read that song every day this week and it still makes me howl with laughter!!!!! [R] - julie@work - 2006-08-03 11:09:33am
- How he turned an entire line into "undisqualifiable" was brill imo :)) [R] - Yair - 2006-08-03 11:16:00am
- If it was an entry, it would soooo have deserved to win! [R] - julie@work - 2006-08-03 11:16:50am
