For my future choices, the more competitive and nice it sounds to me, the more I’ll run from it like the devil from a cross

Great contest this month, thanks for hosting- effort has been appreciated. ❤️

Cheers,

Jacob.

Dalisska continue to be an indie vote magnet with +15 from Trifoski and now find themselves in touching distance of the top 5. More big points to Bøtanikkä see them pass the 200 point mark. In great news for us we receive two more double-digit points which keeps the dream alive of our top 20 streak in tact. Skall also belated pass 100 points in style with a Trifoski podium position, whilst big points from Aelandor to Ajanaeda and Séyetana keep them on the edge of top 10. At this point though is Cheiron's lead just too insurmountable?

Scoreboard 12 - after 48 votes

Oh dear - 4th to 31st! About what I expected. Just glad to be over 100 points

Thank you for (just about!) keeping me in the top 10 with those generous points, Jacob.

Thank you 7. <3

And the way I am looking at scoreboard...

Thanks to Trifoski for the 15 and Aelandor for the 4! 😄

Thanks for the Bronze Aelandor!

I'm expecting a drought soon. 👀

I am still doing a lot better than I had expected to, yay! thank you for all the votes especially the 18 from Freeze and the 15s from Miri and Jacob <3

Hope you enjoyed Jupiterdonia's foray into instrum trance, we will be genre-shifting again in the next contest!

With another +13 to Cheiron, Jupiterdonia may be on the money tonight, although the closest competition in Hushkanukia and Fljótavík continue to get sizeable points...

Wait didn't we already have those two scores revealed on a previous page...

we don't want those votes...again :p

Just joking lol

I was hoping those votes had been permanently deleted 😂😂

We all wish we could permanently delete Cor Lupus sometimes x

Would it be cruel to reveal all the votes for Cheiron, and then have the last ten voters give 18×10 to Ajanaeda

Commiserations go to Aeroche, Juranabaijan, Mothertopia, POPHub and Zephyra Continuum who were just outside our points this month. Strong contest!

We have a runaway top three now with the biggest fight at the moment being Hushkanukia against Fljótavík for 2nd place. Helping the former's case is a juicy +18 from KlumRep, who also give +13 to the current leaders and more importantly, +15 to the hosting nation!! Scotland 2 re-emerge as a top 5 contender as they surpass 200 points, scoring +11 from both voters in this set. Mothertopia are not far behind either as they climb, ahem, higher, up the scoreboard. Elëdan casually get another +18 too cos why not. Hendinia's long-awaited points injection sees them up 8 spots since the previous update too..

Scoreboard 13 - after 52 votes

Really didn’t think this would be a runaway but I did start to buy into the Cheiron theory as the week went on, even if my predictions wouldn’t have told you that from the start of the finals week.
