Euphoria 2023

We are ready for another year
I am very optimistic about this event. Mainly because we are moving into a new generation. Now the competition is moving into a format more like a video game than a competition-show. And I think we've dispelled any misconceptions about the reliability of the results. We are more united in other circumstances with the purpose of naturally overcoming the trivial. We might not have taken the next step if we didn't believe in it. For many reasons. After so many years, a lot has changed, both us as people and the world around us. The goal now is for Euphoria to evolve and become a timeless game.
I will never forget that in 2014 the participants were only 4 people. And in recent years they have not fallen below 10 players. These numbers sound small, but for such an effort, the development it has plays an important role. Let's remember that in the past the competition was held exclusively live and today we have the audiovisual possibility of presenting results. Which it helps to stream through YouTube.
What we all want is to do something different every year. So I would like to share with you the new rules of the competition, which will be implemented in order to ensure transparency.
New rule
Since this year will be the 10th edition of the competition, only 10 places will be open. This means that 10 single players will participate.
Of the 10 positions, three are closed by the jury.
Once the process of selecting the entries by the three-member jury is finished, all final entries will be sent to each player for grading.
In case the participants exceed 7 then an evaluation process based on the score will be applied.
The grading rules are as follows:
In the competition there are 10 categories made up of 10 nominations. Players must rate all nominations out of 10 using each grade once. Then the algorithm, after checking the grades, will change the grades so that the nominations graded with 1 are zeroed. After that the scoreboard will show scores as 10,8,7,6,5,4,3,2,1 and 0 instead of 10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3, 2 and 1. With this system, the cases of netting are minimized.
The player who does not send his scores based on the above regulation will be disqualified.
Scores are confidential and may not be published in any way.
After the end of the rating, the results will be presented on the official YouTube channel of the competition and will be available for one
24 hours.
In the final, after the scores of all the players have been presented, the winning nomination will be announced.
The winner is declared by the players who rated the five nominations that collected the most points with the highest possible score.
In case of a tie for 5th place, the player's points are counted in the final result.
And in the event of a tie for first place, the winner has declared the one who gave the most 10s to the best nomination.
