Battle of the Best: 12 Points

Battle of the Best: 12 Points is a special anniversary show to celebrate 20 editions of Titolemppi's participation in Majestic Song Contest. The following show was the second show to be aired, and followed up Battle of the Best: Titolemppi, which aired a few days earlier.

Format
All the songs that Titolemppi has given 12 points to, between edition #3 to edition #23 are set to compete, in order to crown Titolemppi's favorite entry of all time. The main difference between this show and Battle of the Best: Titolemppi is that no Titolemppian entries will participate, and there will be two semi-finals.

The format will be very similar to the format used in Majestic Song Contest, except only Titolemppian citizens will be able to vote. As a result, there will be no international jurors in this special anniversary show. During the semi-finals, no jurors will be included and the qualifiers will be decided through telephone, text messages and application votes. In the grand final, several jurors from Titolemppi will vote on their favorites, along with citizens all over Titolemppi to vote over telephone, text messages and application votes. The jurors will have 50% of the power, and the televoting results will decide the other half of the result.

The songs will not be performed live, instead their live performances from their respective Majestic Song Contest edition will be played.

People tuning into the show were able to post about it on Twitter using the hashtags #BOTB12Points, as well as #BOTB followed by the country's name (such as #BOTBElirea for Elirea, or #BOTBKoM for Kingdom of Manatee).
