29 competitors made the final and have been battling it out all week long, so who will reign victorious by the end of the evening?
Buzzjack, you have decided...

How exciting!

I think this is going to be genuinely unpredictable throughout.

EXCITING!!

Even if I'm not in the final I think this should be interesting! This is the first time I've prepared my votes in an elaborate manner as well!
Posted by: Dandy* 18th March 2012, 07:42 PM
Right then, the votes will be revealed with the host first, then Skall due to being late... then everyone else in the order they were received... I shall begin with the Fljótavík votes in just a minute or two.

Oh and I'll be keeping everyone's efforts for voting... I was going to keep it all to my formatting but it seemed mean to remove the effort people had made.

I will be away for 2 hours unfortunly, but I will be back in 2 hour (depends on trafic)

Posted by: Dandy* 18th March 2012, 07:45 PM
Before we begin, here are the final pre-contest odds (as averaged by Ryan in the other thread)
The first votes are from the host nation, the crowd cheer as Foxes steps forward to award Persephonia and the excellent ‘Reckless (With Your Love)’ the 12 points. Unsurprisingly the indie bloc benefits hugely from the hosts but both Ashton and Allecian manage to sneak into the top 10, the former receiving their first ever points from Fljótavík.
Posted by: Jerick 18th March 2012, 07:52 PM
Oh no, nil points
Not gonna win this!
Posted by: Jester 18th March 2012, 07:53 PM
10?! Thanks Dandy!
Posted by: Ryan741 18th March 2012, 07:53 PM
Ooh! Loving the presentation and the scoreboard!
Congratulations Bre! (I think you are Persephonia )

I'M WINNING
Thanks Dandy*

Starting with points Thanks Dandy
Posted by: MelodiVÜLKivalen 18th March 2012, 07:55 PM
Oh, can't see the scoreboard as my workplace has their host blocked. I'll cheer when I see points for Letland and try to add them up as we go along! HAHA
PS.: Mind you, I should be focusing on the guests that are stuck inside the lift instead of this!

12 Batidas - Goodwill & Hook n Sling - Take You Higher 10 Persephonia - Azari & III - Reckless (With Your Love) 08 Ashton - Elen Levon • Like A Girl In Love 07 Fljótavík - Rachel Sermanni • The Fog 06 FYR Vojvodina-on-the-Wold - Frida Hyvonen • Terribly Dark 05 Juranabaijan - The Disco Boys • Around The World 04 Tinnmark - Laleh • Some Die Young 03 PRoJ - Lianne La Havas • Forget 02 FSR Rontvia - Gossling • Wild Love 01 Kopečka - Lisa Miskovsky • Lover
"The quality was, at least, better than the semi-final quality."
Another strong showing for Persephonia here puts them into a strong early lead, PRoJ and Ashton also receive their second set of points and get off to a good start. As for the deafening noise? Well that’s the sound of the Batidome exploding at Batidas receiving the full 12 points!

Points for Ashton from Fljótavík and Skall, and they're sure to mop up the pop votes too, maybe this is our winner?
Yay, appearing in both sets so far, thanks Harve

"Another strong showing for Persephonia here puts them into a strong early lead"
These are words that I never thought I'd be reading Go me! (I'm blatantly still going to finish something like 20th though).
Thanks very much for the points harve
Also, I echo the sentiment of great presentation.

"Great presentations! "
N-Lazone are the third country to vote and provide yet more very strong votes for Persephonia with Azari & III collecting almost three times the score of any other country. FSR Rontvia, popular as ever, manage to score from all three of the first nations to vote but the total doesn’t quite get them into the top 10 yet. Getting off the mark are Botanikka and Ramrynia... and of course Hendinia who claim the maximum from N-Lazone.
Posted by: gooddelta 18th March 2012, 08:02 PM
Slow but steady, not exactly winning the race but it's nice to know that everyone so far liked the track. Thanks Nick
Posted by: Johnkm 18th March 2012, 08:02 PM
I'm surprised to see Persephonia doing so well, maybe they'll tail off, but I never had it down as a contender.

Posted by: Eyes 18th March 2012, 08:04 PM
I wonder if Persephonia could be a shock top 10 at this rate. Wouldn't surprise me. Nice to see it doing well though...
In other, unexciting news, still on 0.
Posted by: C.W 18th March 2012, 08:05 PM

I'm really not a contender, I'm 99% certain this is just an EXTREMELY lucky draw and I'll get all my points from the first few people then get nothing for the rest of it

Posted by: Dandy* 18th March 2012, 08:06 PM
Good evening Fljótavík, this is Prance Faris calling from Klurren in FSR Rontvia and I'm ready to present the Rontvian televotes. Thank you for the brilliant show, we've really enjoyed the presentation and the songs in both the final and the majority of those that didn't make it. Before we start we'd like to offer commiserations to Fljótavík, Hendinia, ProJ, Budtar and Juranabaijan but primarily Kopečka who we'd have dearly loved to have awarded points this time around, but thank you for all sending great entries anyway! We just love our top ten that *little* bit more. Without further ado, here is that top ten;
1 point goes to ChrIseland ✞ Annah Mac • Girl In Stilettos 2 points go to FYR Vojvodina-on-the-Wold ✞ Frida Hyvonen • Terribly Dark 3 points go to Numayania ✞ The Asteroids Galaxy Tour • Heart Attack 4 points go to Letland ✞ Max Barskih • Dance 5 points go to Elëdan ✞ Emma Marrone • Non E’ L’inferno 6 points go to Ashton ✞ Elen Levon • Like A Girl In Love 7 points go to Batidas ✞ Goodwill & Hook n Sling • Take You Higher
And now for the big three;
8 points go to Syndare ✞ Butterfly Boucher • Not Fooling Around, welcome to our voting history for the first time, and thanks for sending an insane grower of a song!
10 points go to Tinnmark ✞ Laleh • Some Die Young, a track that we had tried to send ourselves, it was never not going to feature in our top three this evening, absolutely beautiful song.
12 points go to Botanikka ✞ Emma Hewitt • Colours, there was absolutely nothing separating this top two, both are stunning in their own way. However Colours is a wonderful discovery, both the original and the Armin van Buuren remixes are fantastic and for that Botanikka are awarded their first 12 since 2009!
Thank you, good night and good luck to everyone!
Rontvian hearts were torn between Emma Hewitt and Laleh this month but surely they must be slightly mended from seeing both acts shoot into the top 6. Also benefitting hugely are Batidas, Ashton and Syndare who all take the opportunity to close on Persephonia at the top. Girl In Stilettos was one of the early favourites in the odds and finally gets off the mark here with a point from FSR Rontvia.
Posted by: LexCdinck 18th March 2012, 08:07 PM
Thanks for the 8 Nick. (I'm trying my best to do these posts In a fast moving car!)

Posted by: Dandy* 18th March 2012, 08:12 PM
Hey! Here are the votes from Caerfyrddia:
12 FYR Vojvodina-on-the-Wold ✞ Frida Hyvonen • Terribly Dark 10 Sangria ✞ Gabrielle • Høster 08 Allecian ✞ Graph Gonzales • Eyes In The Dark 07 Fljótavík ✞ Rachel Sermanni • The Fog 06 Ashton ✞ Elen Levon • Like A Girl In Love 05 Scherzland ✞ Jessica Lowndes • Nothing Like This 04 Botanikka ✞ Emma Hewitt • Colours 03 Letland ✞ Max Barskih • Dance 02 Farahtyn ✞ Serebro • Mama Lover 01 Tinnmark ✞ Laleh • Some Die Young
Thanks!
Ghosty’s votes spring Vojvodina into the top 5 as they receive the maximum from Caerfyrddia while an 8 for Allecian also sees them heading up the table. Sangria get off the mark in impressive fashion and only four songs now have yet to score, fingers crossed for Budtar, Land of Jack, Séyetana and Terra Avium that they do not have to wait much longer...

Posted by: Dandy* 18th March 2012, 08:19 PM
Good evening Fljótavik, hello BuzzJack world! It's Marie Picasso from Zurratown!
It's my pleasure to announce the results of the Sangrian televotes. But before I wanna say a big thank you for Fljótavik for this awsome show on an absolutely wonderful evening. It is a MIRAKEL! Let's move on our points:
1 point goes to... Budtar: Ariana Grande - Put Your Hearts Up 2 points go to... FSR Rontvia: Gossling - Wild Love 3 points go to... Scherzland: Jessica Lowndes - Nothing Like This 4 points go to... Letland: Max Barskih - Dance 5 points go to... Numayania: The Asteroids Galaxy Tour - Heart Attack 6 points go to... Ramrynia: Kristina Maria - Our Song Comes On 7 points go to... Kluminican Republic: CSS - Hits Me Like A Rock
and now our big poiters
8 points go to... Land Of Jack: Karmin - Brokenhearted
10 points go to... Juranabaijan: The Disco Boys - Around The World
After the last contest when this country got 8 points from us now it's been awarded douze points by the Sangrian public which means our 12 points go to...
Ashton: Elen Levon - Like A Girl In Love
Thank you for your attention and good luck to all of you. Go Gabrielle!!!
Budtar and Land of Jack off the mark then, the latter in more impressive style. At the top a 12 for Ashton enables them to jump Persephonia and grab the lead for now... Kluminican Republic, Ramrynia and Juranabaijan also making significant gains with this set of votes.
Posted by: Ryan741 18th March 2012, 08:20 PM
WOW! Thank you Sangria! Really happy with how I'm doing so far
Posted by: gooddelta 18th March 2012, 08:20 PM
Yay, thanks Sangria, only nul points from Caerfyrddia so far! (Not that 18th is anything to shout about, any high points on the agenda I wonder?)

Posted by: Tom VaKayTion 18th March 2012, 08:21 PM

Posted by: Dandy* 18th March 2012, 08:23 PM
12 Elëdan ❖ Emma Marrone • Non E’ L’inferno 10 Kluminican Republic ✪ CSS • Hits Me Like A Rock 08 PRoJ ✪ Lianna La Havas • Forget 07 Botanikka ✪ Emma Hewwit • Colours 06 Fljótavík ✞ Rachel Sermanni • The Fog 05 Syndare ✪ Butterfly Boucher • Not Fooling Around 04 Kopečka ✪ Lisa Miskovsky • Lover 03 FYR Vojvodina-on-the-Wold ❖ Frida Hyvonen • Terribly Dark 02 UnoShake ❖ San Cisco • Awkward 01 Skall ❖ Active Child • Diamond Heart
A first 12 of the night for those pesky Elëdan folks pushes them up to the cusp of the top 10. Kluminican Republic get more high points and storm into the top 5 for the first time... however the main cheers in the stadium are for Fljótavík’s own Rachel Sermanni getting points and managing to creep into the top 10.

Posted by: Dandy* 18th March 2012, 08:27 PM
Good evening BuzzJack world from Juranabaijan, and special mentions to Dandy* and all the people in Fljótavík for making this such a wonderful contest. We'll start off with things by announcing the 7 songs that came just below the Top 3.
01pts | Farahtyn // Serebro - Mama Lover 02pts | Tinnmark // Laleh - Some Die Young 03pts | Terra Avium // Kaskade ft Skylar Gray - Room For Happiness 04pts | Batidas // Goodwill & Hook N Sling - Take You Higher 05pts | ChrIseland // Annah Mac - Girl In Stilettos 06pts | Syndare // Butterfly Boucher - Not Fooling Around 07pts | Séyetana // Xenia - Sing You Home
But here is the all-important Top 3. The big-pointers!
We enterred them way back in BJSC 10, but failed to qualify! Here they are, back, representing a different nation but we're staying loyal, it's... 08pts | Kuminican Republic // CSS - Hits Me Like A Rock
I think this is possibly the highest our nation has ever placed a non-English language song... 10pts | Sangria // Gabrielle - Høster
And the winner, is the oh-so-catchy... 12pts | Kopečka // Lisa Miskovsky - Lover
A third great score in a row lifts Hits Me Like A Rock up to the same amount of points as the Ashton entry. Despite not receiving points for some time, Persephonia sit third due to the wide allocation of points from the different countries. At the bottom, Juranabaijan awards points to both Séyetana and Terra Avium so that all entrants have now scored.
Posted by: Eyes 18th March 2012, 08:29 PM
Thanks Juranamo!
Now to gather some momentum. Because I don't like the bottom of the scoreboard, it's cold and windy.
Posted by: gooddelta 18th March 2012, 08:29 PM

Posted by: Dandy* 18th March 2012, 08:32 PM
Hi, from Usfland
Sadly we didn't make the final as our gamble failed to pay off as our K-Pop entry sadly didn't make the final. Oh well there's always next time.
Here are the final scores from Usfland: 1pt: Ashton: Elen Levon/ Like A Girl In Love 2pts: Skall: Active Child/ Diamond Heart 3pts: Farahtyn: Serebro/ Mama Lover 4pts: Ramrynia: Kristina Maria/ Our Song Comes On 5pts: Fljotavik: Rachel Sermanni/ The Fog 6pts: Kopecka: Lisa Miskovsky/ Lover 7pts: ChrIseland: Annah Mac/ Girl In Stilettos
And now for the Top3: 8pts goes to: Land Of Jack: Karmin/ Brokenhearted 10pts goes to:
Botanikka: Emma Hewitt/ Colours
And the twelve points from Usfland goes to:
Letland: Max Barskih/ Dance
A change of leader as Usfland award 10 to Emma Hewitt and Botanikka rise to the top - one of the front runners in the odds with Tinnmark who currently reside down in 16th. The other favourites are doing variably well also, Ashton currently second while ChrIseland and FSR Rontvia are currently lagging a bit in 19th and 24th respectively. Usfland’s votes also help several others in the top 10 with Fljótavík, Letland and Kopecka posting notable gains.
Posted by: Caïn 18th March 2012, 08:34 PM
Fuck y'all (so far).
Posted by: Ryan741 18th March 2012, 08:34 PM
Thank you very much Usfland!!! 4 points!
Posted by: randomfurlong 18th March 2012, 08:34 PM
Ooft, thanks to Fljótavík, FSR Rontvia, Zechonia, Juranabaijan for your points! (Especially pleased to enter the Rontvian voting history!)
Didn't expect to see CSS and Azari & III among the leaders, but not displeased with that! And I KNEW I should've been more outspoken about Elen Levon being a hot favourite.
Posted by: Bréyhound 18th March 2012, 08:36 PM
Can we have some more 'indie' voters soon please. (I had to go and jinx it saying I'd get all my points from the first few voters... )
Posted by: Klumzee 18th March 2012, 08:36 PM
Now this is very surprising! Surely we must fall quite considerably from here! Thanks Fljotavik, N-Lazone, Sangria and Juranabaijan for the points thus far!
And Zechonia too! Sorry about forgetting you
Oh and Budtar! Much love to you too
Posted by: gooddelta 18th March 2012, 08:36 PM
LOVING the top two right now, not loving being 24th!
Budtar are up next to vote and face the unenviable sight of Ariana Grande currently propping up the table, maybe better things are to come later on? Their votes close things up a bit at the top as Ashton retakes the lead from Botanikka and Kluminican Republic, Syndare are now hot on their heels too as Butterfly Boucher sits ominously in 4th. A second 12 of the night for Hendinia lifts them back into the top 10.

Oh my, I didn't expect a single 12 at all during the night - or indeed m/any big points! So cheers Juranamo and Usfland. That top five is amazing as well - well, one entry aside...
Posted by: Ryan741 18th March 2012, 08:38 PM
WOW! Up to 8th!! Thanks for the 7 points Budtar!
Posted by: Liаm 18th March 2012, 08:38 PM
An Elen Levon win would not be at all displeasing - Silas has come close so many times with well deserved songs so it'd great for Ashton to nab another win finally!

Hello Buzzjack world! I am Dame Carrie Underwood of Unovia, bringing to the results of the country's televote!
Getting down to business, here are the lower points: 1pts Land Of Jack: Karmin - Brokenhearted 2pts FYR Vodjvodnia-On-The-Wold: Frida Hyvonen - Terribly Dark 3pts Numayania: Asteroid Galaxy Tour - Heart Attack 4pts Kopečka: Lisa Miskovsky - Lover 5pts ChrIseland: Annah Mac - Girl In Stilettos 6pts Elëdan: Emma Marrone - Non E L'Inferno 7pts Tinmark: Laleh - Some Die Young
And the big guns, OK here we go....
I just wanna dance, as our 8 points go to.... Max Barskih of Letland, for his song Dance! And because she took out our heartstrings, 10 points go to.... Gossling of FSR Rontvia, for her song Wild Love!
Finally, it's the big one... Hoping that this shakes up their position, 12 points go to.... Serebro of Farahtyn, for their song Mama Lover!
So well done Farahtyn, we hope to see climbing the scoreboard! Commisseraions to Seyetana, PRoJ and Sangria, who we can reveal were sadly close but not close enough and just missed out on points.
Thank you and goodnight from Unovia!
Letland are the main movers here, up to 6th thanks to Unovia. The big points go to Farahtyn and FSR Rontvia to enable both to register big points increases in the bottom half. Kopecka continue to edge their way up the table, now sitting in 7th.
Posted by: Eyes 18th March 2012, 08:41 PM
Another 8! Thanks Jack. Not too bad now...
Tbh, sorry Phil, but Elen Levon was the worst entry in the final this time, I'd rather it didn't win.
Posted by: Bréyhound 18th March 2012, 08:41 PM
The drought stretches to seven voters in a row! I seem to be dropping a place each time - if the pattern continues I'll end up in 39th place! Ouch.
EDIT: Make that eight (although I didn't drop a place this time).

An Elen Levon win would not be at all displeasing - Silas has come close so many times with well deserved songs so it'd great for Ashton to nab another win finally!
Especially that Molly's win wasn't as satisfying as it could be. It's like a half-win.
Just IMAGINE if this time Silas comes joint 1st and loses the tie.

No presenter has been chosen for our upcoming vote presentation as we weren't finalists.
These are Daehun's votes broadcasted via DBSTV
01 Points // Fljótavík: Rachel Sermanni - The Fog 02 Points // Séyetana: Xenia - Sing You Home 03 Points // Ramrynia: Kristina Maria - Our Song Comes On 04 Points // Hendinia: Smith & Thell - Kill It With Love 05 Points // Farahtyn: Serebro - Mama Lover 06 Points // Letland: Max Barskih - Dance 07 Points // Land Of Jack: Karmin - Brokenhearted 08 Points // Budtar: Ariana Grande - Put Your Hands Up 10 Points // Ashton: Elen Levon - Like A Girl In Love 12 Points // Juranabaijan: The Disco Boys - Around The World
Commiserations go to Terra Avium, Scherzland and Allecian who just missed out on our 1 point as it was a 4 way fight with Fljótavík coming victorious for the spot.
We wish good luck for every finalist in BJSCXLII and special mention and thanks to Dandy* for hosting this edition of the contest with stunning visual graphics of each country.
Until the next contest.... farewell!
Another 12 for Juranabaijan next as they jump up to 7th in the table, could this be another decent finish for them? At the very top Ashton have a good result, moving 13 points clear of Botanikka and Kluminican Republic. Letland jump up to 4th with yet more points. At the bottom, Budtar jump up a couple of spots which leaves newcomer Terra Avium unfortunately in last place.

Posted by: Dandy* 18th March 2012, 08:48 PM
12 Persephonia ✞ Azari & III • Reckless (With Your Love) ♫ 10 Kluminican Republic ✞ CSS • Hits Me Like A Rock ♫ 08 Skall ✞ Active Child • Diamond Heart ♫ 07 Fljótavík ✞ Rachel Sermanni • The Fog ♫ 06 Numayania ✞ The Asteroids Galaxy Tour • Heart Attack ♫ 05 PRoJ ✞ Lianne La Havas • Forget ♫ 04 Kopečka ✞ Lisa Miskovsky • Lover ♫ 03 FSR Rontvia ✞ Gossling • Wild Love ♫ 02 Elëdan ✞ Emma Marrone • Non E’ L’inferno ♫ 01 Tinnmark ✞ Laleh • Some Die Young ♫
Another 12 for Persephonia puts an end to their slide as Azari & III move back up to third. Kluminican Republic also take the chance to gain on Ashton and close the gap at the top to just 3 points now. Everything is pretty close at the moment, a decent set of points could easily lift anyone from 22nd upwards into the top 10.

Good evening Fljótavík! Here are the results of the Syndarian televote.
12 FYR Vojvodina-on-the-Wold // Frida Hyvönen - Terribly Dark 10 ChrIseland // Annah Mac - Girl in Stilettos 08 Fljótavík // Rachel Sermanni - The Fog 07 FSR Rontvia // Gossling - Wild Love 06 Tinnmark // Laleh - Some Die Young 05 Kopečka // Lisa Miskovsky - Lover 04 Farahtyn // Serebro - Mama Lover 03 Botanikka // Emma Hewitt - Colours 02 Elëdan // Emma Marrone - Non E' L'inferno 01 Letland // Max Barskih - Dance
Gracious thanks for your brilliant work this contest!
Syndare are currently off to a reasonable start but their votes move them down the top 10 as points for Rachel Sermanni and Frida Hyvonen enable Fljótavík and FYR Vojvodina to leapfrog them. The crowd in the stadium erupt once they realise the host nation are in the top 5 for the first time.

12 Numayania 10 PRoJ 08 Sangria 07 Skall 06 Kopecka 05 Land Of Jack 04 Fljotavik 03 Farahtyn 02 Syndare 01 Tinnmark
Second nation in a row to shoot themselves in the foot somewhat, points for Syndare and Kopecka mean that Frida Hyvonen slides down to 9th. PRoJ make a welcome return to the top 10 after bagging themselves 10 more points.
Posted by: gooddelta 18th March 2012, 08:57 PM
I used to get points from Mdice once in a blue moon, nowadays it's almost every contest - either way it's very much appreciated

Good Evening all! the residents of Terra Avium have been voting in their flocks for this first BJSC and here are the final choices with collective views:
+12 Numayania – The Asteroids Galaxy Tour – Heart Attack (very easy choice for a 12 pointer! amazing song, so euphoric and infectious ) +10 Kluminican Republic – CSS – Hits Me Like a Rock (CSS are vaguely familar in Terra Avium, this was really good on first listen) +8 Tinnmark – Laleh – Some Die Young (the favourite to win we gather? we can see why, stunning production on this) +7 Botanikka – Emma Hewitt – Colours (similar to above really, very haunting ) +6 Juranabaijan – The Discoboys – Around The World (are you sure this is new? it sounds so 90s! nonetheless, I approve) +5 Allecian – Graph Gonzales – Eyes In The Dark (We have long been a fan of slightly darker female pop music, this fits that quite well) +4 Farahtyn - Serebro – Mama Lover (sounds like a proper party anthem (on a personal note, thank you for posting the video ) +3 Persephonia – Azari & III – Reckless (With Your Love) (Terra Avium were indeed considering sending this, sounds quite retro 90s dance in a very good way) +2 Land of Jack – Karmin – Broken Hearted (instant and infectious) +1 Batidas – Goodwill & Hook N Sling – Take You Higher (the last pointer was a tough choice, this rather understated but still great song just gets it)
honourable mentions to Sangrea, Skall, FYR Rontvia on-the-wold, Unoshake, Seyetana & FSR Rontvia who were all worthy of points
Good night!
It’s the turn of the newcomers next as Terra Avium vote and a 10 for CSS is more than enough to enable Kluminican Republic to leapfrog Ashton to head the table for the first time. Numayania also leap into the top 10 thanks to CW. As for their own fortunes, alas Room For Happiness still remains rooted to the bottom of the leaderboard, the bottom few have some ground to catch up now.

Haha! Well they're still in a playlist so I thought I'd just stick on shuffle as an appropriate accompaniment. There isn't really a song I don't like!
CSS are the LAST act I expected to top the leader board, except maybe Active Child. Not a bad song but as Pav suggested, far from their best.

A 12 for Botanikka pushes Emma Hewitt back to the top of the leaderboard with Colours, Kluminican Republic are only a solitary point behind though. Points for FYR Vojvodina and Syndare keep them in contention too.

Evening Fljótavík and thank you for a wonderful show, here are the votes from the Séyetanian jury and public:
One point is awarded to Scherzland’s Nothing Like This. Incredibly tenacious song, something I refuse to get bored of, despite not thinking it would be my thing at first, it won the battle for the last point quite decisively. After 3 straight contests of appearing in my commiseration list, I’m pleased to award two points to the Kluminican Republic for their wonderful grower, (and one I gave no points in the semis) Hits Me Like A Rock. Apologies to all concerned if you guessed wrong on the predicta, but that's the way this thing rolls. Three points go to a country making their debut here. I hope there is Room For Happiness up with the birds as Kaskade and Skylar Grey receive points for Terra Avium. A cover of one of my most well-loved songs gains four points next. The Disco Boys of Juranabaijan have summarily pleased the public with their trip Around The World. The rap is a bit of a guilty highlight. No surprises for our five pointer, it’s FSR Rontvia again. How they keep doing it I have no idea, but Gossling is sublime, and also a grower. Six points go to PRoJ, a country I’m delighted to see back on form. I could make a pun about Forget, but I just rather like Lianne La Havas and there are too many abounding in these votes already. For Syndare, I know these puns are so appropriate/bad, but they are Not Fooling Around with their entries so far, they mean business, and what a trancey business it is. Seven points to Butterfly Boucher! And on to the top three: Finally, and it took WAY too long, I’m able to award points to Fljótavík, and it comes as they host! Rachel Sermanni is a wonderful entry (along with my favourite song title in the contest), please do well on home turf. Enjoy the eight points. It’s a welcome back to our top end of the points (Ten to be precise) to FYR Vojvodina-on-the-Wold with their return to form on Terribly Dark, glorious indie-pop. Finally, our twelve points go to a different nation for the 6th time in a row, and it’s Tinnmark! A little bit obsessed with Laleh and Some Die Young at the moment, good luck with her!
In a list: 12 Tinnmark - Laleh • Some Die Young 10 FYR Vojvodina-on-the-Wold - Frida Hyvonen • Terribly Dark 8 Fljótavík - Rachel Sermanni • The Fog 7 Syndare - Butterfly Boucher • Not Fooling Around 6 PRoJ - Lianna La Havas • Forget 5 FSR Rontvia - Gossling • Wild Love 4 Juranabaijan - The Disco Boys • Around The World 3 Terra Avium - Kaskade feat. Skylar Gray • Room For Happiness 2 Kluminican Republic - CSS • Hits Me Like A Rock 1 Scherzland - Jessica Lowndes • Nothing Like This
There have to be commisserations, there always have to be. Botanikka and Numayania were both agonisingly close to gaining points, Allecian get brownie points for having a cool song title, and Batidas and Persephonia have good dance tracks that were unlucky to miss out.
That's my votes, good luck to Xenia, good luck to all the good entries, have fun everyone. Séyetana out.
Things remain pretty tight at the top but CSS just score enough to lift them back above Emma Hewitt at the top. Pre-contest favourite Laleh really closes in after receiving a 12 from Séyetana. I can’t resist also mentioning that Rachel Sermanni also closes to within 3 points of the lead!

Due to recent austerity measures, this month's Allecci votes come without the fancy formatting.
(1) FYR Vojvodina (2) Land Of Jack (3) Hendinia (4) Juranabaijan (5) Farahtyn (6) Ashton (7) Ramrynia
(8) - Seyetana
(10) - Sangria
(12) - Eledan
Apologies Allecian as I seem to have somehow not highlighted you in the table, however rest assured that you are there - albeit currently down in 25th so maybe best not to highlight after all at this stage. Elëdan and Sangria pick up the big points here and both make substantial progress back towards the top 10. At the top, Ashton score to move themselves back within 4 points of Kluminican Republic.
Posted by: gooddelta 18th March 2012, 09:14 PM
Oh woo, thanks Eyes! Back in the top half now, I really hope that I can finish there!
REALLY surprised at CSS being in the lead, it's good and I rated it 8/10 - it's been on my iPod for months. I didn't think their most recent material had been so well thought of (hence the low odds I guess) but I was very wrong according to BJSC tastes Well done to Klumzee for seeing its potential!
Posted by: Hitstastic 18th March 2012, 09:15 PM
Been playing catch up so I'd firstly like to thank the following countries:
Skall = 12 pts N Lazone = 1 pt FSR Rontvia = 7 pts Juranabaijan = 4 pts Terra Avium = 1 pt Kylienips = 2 pts
I really didn't expect the 12 points from Skall though.
Currently 23rd on the scoreboard but I was never expecting 'Take You Higher' to be a winning contender.

MUCH LOVE TO UNOSHAKE - DA DA DA DA DA DA DAAAA! (this better be on iTunes).
The crowd within the arena go absolutely mental as a 8 from PRoJ is sufficient to push Fljótavík into the lead as we head towards the halfway mark! Other people also move around but I’m FAR too excited to comment on them.

Excellent to see Fljótavík doing a lot better than I expected, I never had it down as a winner though. The top 5 is excellent atm.

Proof if ever it was needed that personal taste plays a HUGE role in the make-up of these things, whether people like to admit it or not.
You can put all the 'these do NOT represent our votes' type disclaimers that you like but they always do to quite a large extent if you look back at each individual's set of odds and marry them up with their eventual votes

These are the votes from Danaelanda. Let's go no further before looking at the songs that unfortunately missed out in no particular order
Numayania ✞ The Asteroids Galaxy Tour • Heart Attack ♫ Letland ✞ Max Barskih • Dance ♫ Batidas ✞ Goodwill & Hook n Sling • Take You Higher ♫
And this is what entries we are loving at the moment, with (shocker) Emma Hewitt on 12 points after recently topping the charts of Danelanda.
+12 Botanikka ✞ Emma Hewitt • Colours ♫ +10 FSR Rontvia ✞ Gossling • Wild Love ♫ +08 Farahtyn ✞ Serebro • Mama Lover ♫
+07 Allecian ✞ Graph Gonzales • Eyes In The Dark ♫ +06 Ashton ✞ Elen Levon • Like A Girl In Love ♫ +05 Scherzland ✞ Jessica Lowndes • Nothing Like This ♫ +04 ChrIseland ✞ Annah Mac • Girl In Stilettos ♫ +03 Persephonia ✞ Azari & III • Reckless (With Your Love) ♫ +02 UnoShake ✞ San Cisco • Awkward ♫ +01 Tinnmark ✞ Laleh • Some Die Young ♫
Well that didn't last long!
Botanikka storm back to the top thanks to a maximum from Danaelanda. FSR Rontvia get a much needed push also and I'm sure they are thrilled with a 10 here.

Gotye: "Good evening Fljótavík, I'm Gotye" Kimbra: "...and I'm Kimbra" Gotye "...and we're here to announce the results of the Batidian televote" Kimbra "We would like to congratulate Fljótavík for putting on an awesome show tonight" Gotye "The standard has been incredible and it's a shame we couldn't award points to more countries" Kimbra "...and so let's start off with the first results of the Batidian televote"
07 pts = Scherzland = Jessica Lowndes - Nothing Like This 06 pts = Elëdan = Emma Marrone - Non E’ L’inferno 05 pts = Syndare = Butterfly Boucher - Not Fooling Around 04 pts = FSR Rontvia = Gossling - Wild Love 03 pts = Kopecka = Lisa Miskovsky - Lover 02 pts = Fljótavík = Rachel Sermanni - The Fog 01 pts = UnoShake = San Cisco - Awkward
Gotye "Which brings us to the top 3 most popular songs as voted for by the people of Batidas" Kimbra "Our 8 points go to a country that has done relatively well with Batidas voters over the last 12 months and this is their most successful hit yet..." Gotye "Collecting our 8 points it's..."
FARAHTYN Serebro - Mama Lover (8 pts)
Kimbra "We're loving those disco divas Serebro right now" ** giggles **
Gotye "Up next are a country who up until last month hadn't received a single point from Batidas" Kimbra "...but the Batidians are loving this song so much at the moment" Gotye "Tonight we are awarding our 10 points to..."
TINNMARK Laleh - Some Die Young (10 pts)
Kimbra "Well done Laleh. Woop!!!"
Gotye "...and so that brings us to the big one, who has Batidas decided to award their 12 points to?" Kimbra "Well, this country have only scored points off Batidas once in the last twelve months" Gotye "Can you remember which song it was, Kim?" Kimbra ** puzzled face ** "Erm...no!" Gotye ** laughs ** "I love this song and I'm happy to reveal Batidas are awarding their 12 points to..."
BOTANIKKA Emma Hewitt - Colours (12 pts)
Kimbra "...and considering Batidas wanted to enter this anyways, it's only fair we gave Emma Hewitt our full support" Gotye "That is it, that's the results of the Batidian televote. Best of luck to everyone tonight. Goodnight!!!" Kimbra "Bye!!!"

Commiserations to Farahtyn, Terra Avium, FYR Vojvodina, Budtar, Hendinia & Ashton who just missed out on the Kluminican points!
Yet another 12 for Numayania lifts them further up the table, a much need 10 for Batidas here too. Skall continue to rack up the points stealthily... but in among that are more points for Botanikka which eases Emma Hewitt further ahead.

Posted by: Dandy* 18th March 2012, 09:48 PM
Hello to everyone watching from around the many countries of the Buzzjack World!
Firstly, we would like to thank Fljótavík for hosting this great contest which it has been an honour for Ramrynia to be a part of! Also, a big thank you to all of the other countries that have taken part because it has allowed our country to discover a whole range of new fabulous artists and their music! Finally, a thank you to everyone who voted our entrant Kristina Maria through to tonight's final with her song 'Our Song Comes On' and also anyone that has voted for her tonight! Both the Ramrynia public and Kristina herself greatly appreciate it!
Anyway, it is time for me to announce the first sets of points from Ramrynia:
1 point goes to Letland. Max Barskih's track 'Dance' is a great dance-pop anthem that gets us up on our feet and have a good time. We expect this will do very well in the final!
2 points go to Kopečka. Though we slightly prefer her recent Melodifestivalen entry, we still like 'Lover' by Lisa Miskovsky very much! Very much deserving a place in our top 10, we hope it can finish top 10 in the final too!
3 points go to Botanikka. 'Colours' by Emma Hewitt is one of tonight's big favourites - and we can totally see why! Even though this genre of music isn't usually what Ramrynia usually votes for, it definitely stands out from the crowd and is a great song - this should definitely reach the top 5 in the results!
4 points go to Numayania. The Asteroids Galaxy Tour and their song 'Heart Attack' is an up-tempo track that stood out from the first listen! Another song predicted to do well, we believe it will too!
5 points go to Ashton. 'Like A Girl In Love' by Elen Levon is a big dance-pop anthem which has appealed to the Ramrynia public very much! We think this will also do very well in tonight's results!
6 points go to ChrIseland. In a similar style to Lily Allen, Annah Mac's 'Girl In Stilettos' was another track that stood out from the beginning when we first heard it in our semi-final, and has got even better with every listen. Another big favourite, we hope that this track will get a very good position!
7 points go to Scherzland. Jessica Lowndes' track 'Nothing Like This' has a great production behind it and a very catchy hook! It's a massive pop track that should hopefully appeal to lots of other voters tonight also!
Now it's time for the top 3 sets of points, and Ramrynia's ultimate favourites to be announced!
8 points go to Land Of Jack! It was Ramrynia's former entrant Katie Sky that first brought this song to our attention and again when she covered the track on YouTube! 'Brokenhearted' by Karmin is very catchy and also has something unique that makes it stand out from the pack. We hope this entry will be very successful in tonight's final!
10 points go to Séyetana! 'Sing You Home' by Xenia immediately became a hit with the Ramrynia public, a brilliant pop track which we think could surprise a few people with at least a top 10 result! Séyetana have come up with another very appealing track to ourselves and we can't wait to see what they come up with next time!
And finally...
12 points go to the Budtar! We are very pleased to award our maximum points to Budtar's entry 'Put Your Hearts Up' by Ariana Grande! It's an amazing pop song with a nice message and a chorus that gets stuck in your head straight away! Hopefully Budtar will pick up a lot of votes tonight!
Finally, we would have liked to vote for a few more songs too, but ultimately only our favourite 10 could receive points. Our commiserations go to Tinnmark, FYR Vojvodina-on-the-Wold and Fljótavík who narrowly missed out on the top 10.
I hope everyone has a great night, and good luck everyone!
A 12 for Budtar cannot be ignored and helps them massively in the bottom half of the table. Ryan seems to have a thing for the songs towards the foot of the table as Séyetana also gain 10 points... about time for both of them!
Botanikka now just 1 point away from a triple digit score.

Urgh, Batidas feeling rather gutted now for not awarding CSS with even 1 point.
Oh, I just checked my overall ranking of the entries and...
Botanikka = Emma Hewitt - Colours : 10/10 Tinnmark = Laleh - Some Die Young : 10/10 Farahtyn = Serebro - Mama Lover : 9/10 Scherzland = Jessica Lowndes - 9/10 Elëdan = Emma Marrone - Non E’ L’inferno : 8/10 Syndare = Butterfly Boucher - 8/10 FSR Rontvia = Gossling - Wild Love : 7/10 Kopecka = Lisa Miskovsky - Lover : 7/10 Fljótavík = Rachel Sermanni - The Fog : 7/10 UnoShake = San Cisco - Awkward : 7/10 Kluminican Republic = CSS - Hits Me Like A Rock : 6/10

Maybe Batidas do have a chance at top 10 after all.

UnoShake's Final Votes
12 = Scherzland ✞ Jessica Lowndes • Nothing Like This 10 = Ashton ✞ Elen Levon • Like A Girl In Love 08 = Séyetana ✞ Xenia • Sing You Home 07 = Budtar ✞ Ariana Grande • Put Your Hearts Up 06 = Land Of Jack ✞ Karmin • Brokenhearted 05 = Tinnmark ✞ Laleh • Some Die Young 04 = Botanikka ✞ Emma Hewitt • Colours 03 = Terra Avium ✞ Kaskade feat. Skylar Gray • Room For Happiness 02 = Syndare ✞ Butterfly Boucher • Not Fooling Around 01 = Skall ✞ Active Child • Diamond Heart
Botanikka still ahead but Ashton and Tinnmark are closing in, could the latter finally be making a charge for the much anticipated 1st place result?

Wow, cheers Klumzee.
Urgh, Batidas feeling rather gutted now for not awarding CSS with even 1 point.
Oh, I just checked my overall ranking of the entries and...
Botanikka = Emma Hewitt - Colours : 10/10 Tinnmark = Laleh - Some Die Young : 10/10 Farahtyn = Serebro - Mama Lover : 9/10 Scherzland = Jessica Lowndes - 9/10 Elëdan = Emma Marrone - Non E’ L’inferno : 8/10 Syndare = Butterfly Boucher - 8/10 FSR Rontvia = Gossling - Wild Love : 7/10 Kopecka = Lisa Miskovsky - Lover : 7/10 Fljótavík = Rachel Sermanni - The Fog : 7/10 UnoShake = San Cisco - Awkward : 7/10 Kluminican Republic = CSS - Hits Me Like A Rock : 6/10
There were quite a few that got 6/10 when I voted but CSS was closest to 7/10.
God I'm WAY too generous when ranking compared to you, even my least favourite song in the final often doesn't stoop down to a 6/10 I don't even chart songs in my top 75 that I rate less than 8.5/10! My rating system is as follows though;
0-2 - Awful 3-4 - Not very good 5-6 - Average 7-8 - Good 8.5 - Very good 9 - Great 9.5 - Excellent/borderline life enhancing 10 - Perfect (I rarely ever have any 10's in a BJSC final)

Come on Tinnmark, you can close in and take the win!

Hello all, Gina Dirawi here with the results of the Farahtyn vote. Sorry for taking so long to vote, but we were distracted by all the shiny graphics this song contest has brought us.
1 point Scherzland
2 points Allecian
3 points Hendinia
4 points Ramrynia
5 points for Juranabaijan
6 points go to Ashton
7 Points go to those in Budtar, I assume this country is also home to the Victorious fan club...
Now for the points that everyone wants to be involved in...
Eight points go to Terra Avium
Our 10 Points go to those who are from this so called Land Of Jack...
Finally our 12 Points go to Letland
8 more points for Terra Avium, I swear this is what happened and I'm not just making the results up... Ashton becomes the second country to hit the 100 points mark, however with things being as close as they are how many others will actually manage to follow them?
I ought to mention Land of Jack too as they've had quite a stealth performance so far but they're currently sitting pretty in the top 10... how far could they go?

10 Letland ✞ Max Barskih • Dance
12 Tinnmark ✞ Laleh • Some Die Young
Talking of Land of Jack, here they are... Tinnmark are the major beneficiaries here as there's nothing for any of their nearest competitors, it takes them over 100 points and puts them now within 15 of Botanikka who fail to score yet again.

07 Letland ✞ Max Barskih • Dance 06 Ramrynia ✞ Kristina Maria • Our Song Comes On 05 Syndare ✞ Butterfly Boucher • Not Fooling Around 04 Allecian ✞ Graph Gonzales • Eyes In The Dark 03 Persephonia ✞ Azari & III • Reckless (With Your Love) 02 Scherzland ✞ Jessica Lowndes • Nothing Like This 01 Kopečka ✞ Lisa Miskovsky • Lover
ChrIseland up next and I guess they must be a tiny bit disappointed by their performance so far, 22nd is way away from the top 5 finish they were predicted. Ashton on the other hand are probably jumping for joy (if they were actually even here to see this, tsssk you Silas!) as they move within 7 points of the leader... Botanikka on the other hand fail to score again.
Let's take a moment to concentrate on Sangria here too... all the way up to 6th now!

APPALLED at how badly Annah Mac is doing - I adore it so that's my excuse for the high odds, but the rest of you need to explain yourselves!

I LOVE her voice although I could see why it would be an acquired taste. I wish it was higher than 14th though, although at this point I'm just hoping that it stays as high as that, otherwise it will be another flop on the cards

I've never dreamed about 12 points for Gabrielle from anyone so I'm very surprised and happy now. Thank you Chris!

Good evening Fljótavík! A big big hello from Letland!
We would first like to say thank you for a wonderful show! Congratulations as well to all the contestants who provided us an amazing time!
Let's check how the public and jury from Letland have voted!
And now the big points! 8 points go to... HENDINIA! 10 points go to... UNOSHAKE! and finally our big big 12 points are going directly to.....
... RAMRYNIA!!!
Congratulations! And good luck to you all!
Another 12 for Ramrynia sees them steady themselves towards the top (errr, of the bottom half). Tinnmark are the only country to gain here out of the top few which edges everything slightly closer together again - just how long can Botanikka stick to 117 points for?!!

ChrIseland up next and I guess they must be a tiny bit disappointed by their performance so far, 22nd is way away from the top 5 finish they were predicted. Ashton on the other hand are probably jumping for joy (if they were actually even here to see this, tsssk you Silas!) as they move within 7 points of the leader... Botanikka on the other hand fail to score again.
Let's take a moment to concentrate on Sangria here too... all the way up to 6th now!
You seriously just did NOT do that!?

Morpeth Calling!
Molly Sandén here with the result of the Federal Republic of Ashton's vote. Firstly we'd like to thank our hosts for such a brilliant show!
As always the Ashtonise vote is made up of three elements: A Televote made up of freephone, free text, free interactive TV and free online votes; A jury vote and finally a Presidential vote. The ASC and SNÁ have re-evaluated the weighting of the Televote and Jury vote and split it 40:10 instead of 25:25. This comes after criticisms of the jury from the last contest who didn't vote at all for a song that scored on the televote and presidential vote and saw the song miss out on points in the closely fought contest.
Scoring 1 to 7 points from Ashton is:
07 || Land Of Jack 06 || Sangria 05 || Farahtyn 04 || Séyetana 03 || Numayania 02 || Tinnmark 01 || FYR Vojvodina-on-the-Wold
Scoring 8 points is:
08 || Unoshake
The country taking 10 is no stranger to this section of Ashton's votes:
10 || FSR Rontvia
With a cover of a dance classic, Ashton's 12 goes to:
12 || Juranabaijan
Thank you to everyone who has voted for Elen Levon and Ashton. We wish you all the best of luck!
Ashton successfully avoid the so called foot shooting this month as they don't really give any points to any of the competitors around them... aside from Tinnmark - wouldn't it be just AWFUL if Silas lost out by one or two points.

I really didn't want to mention this because Juran Juran entered it, but that version of 'Around The World', imo, is dreadful and was sadly one of my 1/10. I just couldn't get into the song as I loved the original so much so this sounded like a really cheap version in comparison (and yes, the rent-a-rapper adds nothing to the track)

Here are the Lake Thermwood votes for the finals :
12 Syndare - Butterfly Boucher - Not Fooling Around 10 Skall - Active Child - Diamond Heart 08 Fljotavik - Rachell Sermanni - The Fog 07 UnoShake - San Cisco - Awkward 06 PRoJ - Lianne la Havas - Forget 05 Farathyn - Serebro - Mama Lover 04 Numayania - The Asteroids Galaxy Tour - Heart Attack 03 Letland - Max Barksih - Dance 02 FYR Vojvidonia on the World - Frida Hyvonen - Terribly Dark 01 Allecian - Graph Gonzales - Eyes in the Dark
12 for Syndare then! A kinda non-shock now but ne'ermind, still they close right in on the top 3... YAY for points for Rachel finally, it's been a while! Nobody advances from the top few though as it a blank all round.

Good evening Fljótavík! *.* Kopečka has had a BLAST going over these tracks and feels it can confidently state this to be the best contest in quite some time - we certainly don't see Lisa doing that well tonight up against this competition! Anyway, before we begin we'd like to give our apologies to the following, in alphabetical order: Allecian, Batidas, ChrIseland, Sangria, Scherzland, and Terra Avium. We adored your tracks but they just weren't good enough to make it into our top ten! Anyway, on with the votes…
One point is awarded to the most disgusting yet fabulous key change of the year, from The Disco Boys of Juranabaijan - ent pont i l'attribussé á l'Iuranabaïdzhan; Two points are reluctantly awarded to Frida Hyvönen, the representative of our sworn eternal enemies FYR V*******a-on-the-Wold - dox pents ia l'attribussées á l'ix rebeliqa iugoslavie da Voivodanse-dans-Voule (IRI Voivodanse-dans-Voule); Three points are awarded to Emma Marrone of Elëdan - trex pents ia l'attribussées á la Ljeðené; Four points are awarded to Active Child of Skall - quax pents ia l'attribussées á l'Ascal; Five points are awarded to Azari & III of Persephonia - quix pents ia l'attribussées á la Parsefonié; Six points are awarded to Karmin of the Land of Jack - sex pents ia l'attribussées á la Turjiecque; Seven points are awarded to Butterfly Boucher of Syndare - sepek pents ia l'attribussées á la Pékeurië;
Eight points are awarded to…Laleh of Tinnmark! We eagerly await the Lena Philipsson redub of this. Ox pents ia l'attribussées á l'Etinmarq;
Ten points are awarded to…Emma Hewitt of Botanikka! Dex pents ia l'attribussées á la Beautanque;
And finally, this month's Kopeček douze goes to an incomparably brilliant Eurostomper, with tremendous production that sounds torn out of a dystopian future where everyone's addicted to cocaine and poppers and civilisation is composed entirely of glowing purple dancefloors…of course, it could only be one track.
Twelve points are awarded to…DANCE BY MAX BARSKIH OF LETLAND! Odex pents ia l'attribussées á la Turlée!
-
The best of luck to all participants and many thanks to our Fljótavíkan hosts for the GORGEOUS graphic work. D*+Os all round! *.*
After Tyrren's votes there is only one point between Laleh and Emma Hewitt! Ashton and Syndare are also both within a maximum score of the top spot... finally getting towards the end now... who will win through?

CRASH, BOM, BAA-AANG! Hello beautiful people of Buzzjack and all you Queers out there! We mean.. Q'ers! We are the girls and/or boy of Xelle, who represented the tremendously gorgeous Greenfroze nation before we DNQueered. Now we've found ourselves lost backstage somewhere at a random local concert as we didn't found our way to the official BJSC XLII venue, but that's okay because we get free drinks here just for looking fabulous and we've kidnapped a cute little something from the streets outside to read the results from the Greenfroze televoting with us. Btw we LO-OVED the amazing show and all of the fantastic songs who performed in this final, and was told it was a VERY close race between 18 songs, and that there were only a couple of votes differentiating between the songs just outside the ten countries who did get points and the 5-pointer! Commiserations to the following countries *gives note to kidnapped boy who starts to read in an anxious tone*: "Commiserations to Séyetana, Ramrynia, Tinnmark, Budtar, Botanikka, Juranabaijan, UnoShake and Ashton." Yes. You are ALL worthy of points, but some weird rule says Greenfroze can't award more than 10 countries points, which haven't been more terrible than now. Either way, it's time to reveal our lucky and amazing 1-7 pointers!
Kopečka - Lisa Miskovsky • Lover – 1
Allecian - Graph Gonzales • Eyes in the dark - 2
Hendinia - Smith & Thell • Kill it with love – 3
Terra Avium - Kaskade feat. Skylar Gray • Room for happiness – 4
Sangria - Gabrielle • Høster – 5
Land Of Jack - Karmin • Brokenhearted - 6
Numayania - The Asteroids Galaxy Tour • Heart attack – 7
Wow, that was fantastic! And now we will reveal who recieved the three BIGGEST points from Greenfroze!
Eight points goes to a country who has never recieved any points from Greenfroze before, but this time they impressed highly with their entry 'Not fooling around' performed by 'Butterfly Boucher' It's SYNDARE!
Syndare - Butterfly Boucher • Not fooling around – 8
Ten points goes to a country who has just recieved 3 points from Greenfroze in the past, and just like Syndare they highly impressed us with the BEST pop song of this contest. Their entry is 'Nothing like this' performed by 'Jessica Lowndes'. It's SCHERZLAND!
Scherzland - Jessica Lowndes • Nothing like this - 10
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaand the BIG TWELVE POINTS goes to a country who has recieved two 12's from before, but they usually don't get points from Greenfroze, despite being inspired to the point of obscureness. Either way they did send their best entry since their last 12-pointer way back in XXIII, and oh what an incredible discovery it is. Congratulations 'Emma Marrone' for your superbly epic 'Non e’ l’inferno'. IT'S ELËDAN!
Elëdan - Emma Marrone • Non e’ l’inferno - 12
Here's a summary of the results of the televoting before we get our free drinks:
Elëdan - Emma Marrone • Non e’ l’inferno - 12
Scherzland - Jessica Lowndes • Nothing like this - 10 Syndare - Butterfly Boucher • Not fooling around – 8 Numayania - The Asteroids Galaxy Tour • Heart attack – 7
Land Of Jack - Karmin • Brokenhearted - 6 Sangria - Gabrielle • Høster – 5 Terra Avium - Kaskade feat. Skylar Gray • Room for happiness – 4
Hendinia - Smith & Thell • Kill it with love – 3 Allecian - Graph Gonzales • Eyes in the dark - 2 Kopečka - Lisa Miskovsky • Lover – 1
OH AND FLJÓTAVÍK? GREAT SHOW! WE LOVED IT! THANK YOU AND GOODBYE FOR NOW!
XOXO XELLE
So Syndare close up on the top 2 and move up to third in the process, could they be in with a chance at a win on their second attempt? Numayania also have reason to celebrate here as they become the 5th country to cross the 100 point barrier - congrats!
Everything is getting VERY tight at the bottom also, literally any of the final 8 could realistically end up there.

No surprise there as I was stalking his last.fm in return but thanks Freeze! Only four points behind
Posted by: Dandy* 18th March 2012, 11:04 PM
12 People’s Republic of Jester 10 Skall 8 Allecian 7 Batidas 6 Fljótavík 5 Numayania 4 Kluminican Republic 3 UnoShake 2 Terra Avium 1 Tinnmark
Yet another maximum for PRoJ... although it may be too little too late now. Numayania continue to close in, would I really be so mean as to allow them to take the prize away from the obvious contenders in the final few sets of votes...
Land of Jack and Fljótavík both painfully one point short of the 100 mark now too. Ach.

In general, yes, but in this case you want something he has (hosting abilities), whereas jealous is wanting signs of affection from someone who gives it to someone else (like attention, love, respect etc.)

Botanikka retake the lead with just THREE more sets of votes to go, no points for Emma's immediate rivals has to be a good sign for Addy as he opens a 10 point advantage, could he finally get a first victory after all this time?

Not as far as me! I remember back in the day where Persephonia had almost three times as many points as the #2... but those days are long gone now
Unlucky to Kluminican Republic, Sangria, Seyetana and Syndare who all scored 8/10 like the 3pts-1pts section, so narrowly missed out!
Ashton goes into the lead with only ONE set of votes to go... only Elëdan left to vote and Pavel's already declared love for some of the top 5, which way has he voted?!!!

And congratulations to Botanikka for winning
Posted by: Dandy* 18th March 2012, 11:32 PM
I didn't get chance to say in the results thread as hosting is BLOODY HECTIC (much worse than I'd anticipated! ) but a genuine thanks to all that voted for Rachel Sermanni, she definitely outperformed my expectations and I'm most chuffed with a 7th - it keeps up my run of odd numbered finishes nicely.

Yay, Botanikka won Finally! I love to see my 12 pointer winning, what a truly stunning song Colours is - congrats Addy, can't wait to see you host.
Excellent to see Ashton in second place for the second month running, with a fourth second overall now
Shame for Laleh although I don't feel *quite* so bad at not getting to it in time! Another top three for Tinnmark though.
And good to see Tom getting three top five's in a row and Syndare getting their first, I voted for the whole top five this month so good for me
Not so good is finishing in 15th (flush!), even with that much appreciated final 6 points from Eledan! Oh well, only four points away from 8th and eight points ahead of 16th place so it was just very bad luck for Gossling.
Kopecka 2nd last

While absent-mindedly dragging and dropping one of the vote images, I dropped it into the URL bar and noticed Dandy* did the images in a very obvious notation (i.e. photobucket.com/something/something/something/38Kopecka.png), which is never wise on a site featuring a load of immature but notionally intelligent mid-teens who'd crack into that in a second and tell the results to the world!
(as an aside, I knew Eledan were the last to vote but was too much of a fan to ruin the surprise of the results for myself or for that matter anyone else, so be grateful I'm not 14 Dandy* as I totally would've done back then! )

And good to see Tom getting three top five's in a row and Syndare getting their first, I voted for the whole top five this month so good for me
Not so good is finishing in 15th (flush!), even with that much appreciated final 6 points from Eledan! Oh well, only four points away from 8th and eight points ahead of 16th place so it was just very bad luck for Gossling.
Kopecka 2nd last
Thanks for hosting Dandy*, as always a very well put together and enjoyable production
Thought you'd approve of the results, it's noticeable on the final table how biased the result is to your votes.

Until BJSC 50 by which FSR Rontvia and Kopecka have both won a minimum of 1 contest each!

CONGRATULATIONS BOTANIKKA! I did like your entry, I think it's wonderful! Well deserved, and long overdue!

It will never be the same again
(until I find a great song - I don't hide the fact that Gossling was a backup entry and not my first choice even if I do love it)
Tirren W feat. Rich 'Right Eye' Lopez - Never Be The Same Again. 28th place SMASH
(I can't say Lover was a track I could ever more than half get behind either, even though it's fantastic, so I don't mind it coming second last!)

I was predicted to finish in the TOP 5, yet I actually finish in the BOTTOM 5.
Congratulations Addy!

I have literally NO idea what happened there, your support just evaporated in the final...

Anyway, I feel I MAY AS WELL NOW SAY. While absent-mindedly dragging and dropping an image, I dropped it into the URL bar and noticed Dandy* did the images in a very obvious notation (i.e. photobucket.com/something/something/something/38Kopecka.png), which is never wise on a site featuring a load of immature but notionally intelligent mid-teens who'd crack into that in a second and tell the results to the world!
Oh! You mean THAT? I thought it would be something LESS PRIMITIVE.

Can't believe Addy isn't here tonight to rejoice his debut BJSC win.
