During tonight’s jury voting process at the Eurovision Song Contest 2022, the EBU released a statement to explain that the national juries from six countries in the second semi-final were removed from the contest. These were then replaced by an aggregated result based on countries with similar voting patterns in both the second semi-final and the grand final.
The six national juries that were removed from Eurovision 2022 were from the following countries:
Azerbaijan
Georgia
Montenegro
Poland
Romania
San Marino
The full EBU statement can be read below:
In the analysis of jury voting by the European Broadcasting Union’s (EBU) pan-European voting partner after the Second Dress Rehearsal of the Second Semi-Final of the 2022 Eurovision Song Contest, certain irregular voting patterns were identified in the results of six countries.
This is a hilarious mistranslation actually. I suspect it originally said something along the lines of “Impregnerad mot vatten”, i.e. “Water proof”.
Impregnering is the process of making a material resistant to water/heat. The swedish word for water (vatten) is similar to the word for goblin (vätten) so I guess there was a mixup.
I’m still super wound up the medication is powerless against Eurovision
Other people must respond to random people asking for reblogs because I’ve gotten like three messages about it this week
I’ve been and am currently still in the unenviable position of asking strangers on the internet for money but like I’ve never hopped into someone’s inbox and straight up asked for a reblog is that just the way we’re doing things now
so proud of these two who managed a top 10 placement in the final, now let’s keep theorizing who’s behind the masks ( though i’m 99.9% sure i know who ) 😎
