Don't mistake quick thinking for IQ. Rapid answers often reflect shallow reasoning.

Data: smarter people are faster on easy problems but slower on hard ones. They know haste makes waste, and they want to get it right.

Refusing to trade accuracy for speed is a sign of intellect.

This is a fantastic analysis of the jury problem, but also shows why they're needed - with some reform. #Eurovision https://t.co/xb9gG41ZLU

Eurovision 2024 interval act:
Käärijä 🇫🇮 starts off singing Tattoo in the box, then Loreen 🇸🇪 comes in and does Cha cha cha (both wearing each other’s costumes 🤩) and then they meet in the middle and do a duet of an ABBA song

We’d be dead ☠️

[ESC Tom @EurovisionTom]

Both 🇷🇸 & 🇪🇸 took a huge risk this year
Risks don't always pay off, but I hope that doesn't stop them persisting. Luke🇷🇸 & Blanca🇪🇸 touched a lot of people

If they continue to be brave with their entries, I think 🇷🇸🇪🇸 will both win Eurovision again within the next 10 years

@MattESCunited (And I think both expert and demoscopic is a good idea to explore)

[d4 @d4goodwin]

@EurovisionTom @MattESCunited @Jell_ESC Though they massively failed in doing what juries should be doing this year. We absolutely need them…but whatever is happening with them at present is failing.

Also - why have them vote on a different performance to the public? That’s truly bizarre.

[ESC Tom @EurovisionTom]

Käärijä🇫🇮 came Top 5 in every single country in the televote. Fingers crossed that this translates into some commercial success for him 🤞🏻
Success in Eurovision isn't only about winning

Was talking with a Finnish journalist from YLE🇫🇮

He explained how bringing in DJ Orkidea (Tapio Hakanen) to revamp their selection process was one of the main reasons they've turned things around since 2020.

We saw 🇳🇱 do the same. 🇮🇪 could turn things around with big changes

Can anyone fill me in re: queueing at #Eurovision ? How early do they open doors & when would be the best time to go to the arena for Saturday afternoon rehearsal? Thanks fans!

@brandon_hall81 @TicketmasterUK @LastPass @Eurovision So so so excited😆

[d4 @d4goodwin]

My #hottip for using @TicketmasterUK - DON’T save a card for payment. #fail.

However, using our card vault in @LastPass saved us and we GOT THE TICKETS we missed out on back March after a VERY STRESSFUL 137 seconds. @Eurovision here we come! Aaahhhhhaaaaaahhhhhhheeeaaaeaeaea 😘
