idk if and how it's possible but it would be great if the countries that gave you the most points would be added to the calculations in some way as if it's about determining 'taste similarities' the countries that like the songs you send the most would indicate a similar taste to some point too that would only be true if you only send songs you personally adore though Does it even make sense

So in Pot 6 is everyone who didn't fit into the other pots, because they were full, right ?

(Yeah, I had to change the calculation yet again) Every country's top 10-12 is taken and even if your country isn't in their country's top, you can still inadvertently attract that country towards your pot by having it in your top! honestly i don't even make sense myself sometimes So in Pot 6 is everyone who didn't fit into the other pots, because they were full, right ? Basically yes The closer you are to the middle the more mixed your voting is as well! I had to had a specific look at everyone's "edges" (basically, the lines in the graph) and those that shared the least with one single pot were put in Pot 6

I'd have thought The White Havens would've been in pot 6 as we are close to the middle of the diagram.

That's alright I have no idea how it works so I'll just accept it as it is haha. I have no idea who my neighbouring countries are so i'll be alright hehe

Merry Potmas!
Out of boredom, I decided to make a pot graph for the fourth edition based on the voting similarities of the third edition. Nothing relevant at all, but yeah, it may interest some of you. The exact same technique that was used in the #05 pot graph was used in this graph too.
You may have noticed there are a few radicals in there (COUGHBAESNIACOUGH) but this is why pot graphs are important. They show you the similarities but in a pictorial form which is designed to show relationships, and not only does this help us determine a pot more easily, but also avoid any anomalies within these pots.
Basically, in the case of Baesnia, they shared more "edges" (the lines in the graph) with the red pot, yet it is far closer to the light and dark blue pots. Baesnia had stronger relations with few of the countries in these pots but had pretty much everyone in the red pot, and basically the more "lines" shared with a pot means you will be in that pot.
Whereas in the case of Jamah... they are pretty much spot on in the middle as they shared EQUAL "lines" with three pots. As I was unable to determine which one they fell into better, I made a pink pot for all the countries in which this is the case. Foxtavia is the one that's really in the middle but they still shared quite a lot with the light blue pot.
In conclusion, pay attention to the lines in the graph. They will guide you to why you are in the pot you are in.
Also, I have an update on the statistics for the upcoming edition!
The voting similarities for the fifth edition will come out ASAP after the results on Tuesday. That way, I will be able to make the pots before I return to school on the 5th of January -- and I have to study a lot. The pot graph will hopefully come the same night, or possibly even the day after, but I can assure you the pots will be revealed before the 5th.
Remember the pots are subject to change, especially if there are like.... 4 AQ'd countries in the same pot. Hopefully I'll be able to change them myself in that case, but feel free once the pots are revealed to make any suggestions.
