With changes made to the voting system for the Eurovision 2010 contest, some people held high hopes that the system would bring a fairer contest and see better songs make their way through.
WRONG! Once again the Eurovision voting system is a disaster, and a pathetic failure.
Dont take it personally, EUB but you got it wrong, again.
The problem is the regional voting patterns.
Here is the solution.
Once upon a time you could vote, but not for your own country. Thats when there were only a handful of entrants.
Now we have dozens of entrants and regional voting blocks are a problem.
I would extend the philosophy of not voting for your own country to not voting for your own region.
Group all entrants into regional blocks of 6 and you can not vote for a country in your own regional block.
This would immediately remove the impact of regional voting and ensure a fairer Eurovision system.
What do you think?
An alternative would be to group all entrants into groups of 6, and they have a mini final against each other so that only one entrants goes to the final from that region, with wildcards given to the next highest placings.
