Mozey) Pestolia :: frutiger dillon – Windows98 Terra Avium :: yeule – Veil Of Darkness SF2 Altyr Muunilinst :: RABO – Stuck In November Baleghde :: BANKS – Contaminated Fljótavík :: Faouzia – DON'T EVER LEAVE ME FSR Rontvia :: DJ Suzy – White Rabbit Greenfroze :: ZETAK – ARALARKO DAMA New Lexico :: girlish figure – Please Her For Pleasure Niceland :: Cephas Azariah & Elle Limebear – you're gonna be okay Persephonia :: Sr. Falla De Origen – SQFML POPHub :: Le Manou – Fille À Papa République d'Áskorza :: Satine – C'Est Toi Trifoski :: LustSickPuppy – RIDE IT Zephyra Continuum :: Electrotête – I Love You (Cubic 22 Remix) we will now in turn reveal a qualifier and an NQ...

well let's get the question of qualification out of Cheiron's head as they've "done it" alongside Scotland 2! QUALIFIED :: Scotland 2 :: underscores - Do It QUALIFIED :: Cheiron :: First Aid Kit - Out Of My Head

Lucky for our next two representatives that both of them placed Higher than 21st! QUALIFIED :: Mothertopia :: Kelly Lee Owens - Higher QUALIFIED :: Hushkanukia :: Valencia Grace - Lucky You're A Star

the finale is about to get extra wet as I can now announce Elëdan have the longest running entry here, beating my AQ by TWO seconds. meanwhile Jadakissnia remain Faithful to BJSC and evade banishment! QUALIFIED :: Elëdan :: Ö - Garden Extra wet QUALIFIED :: Jadakissnia :: TRAITRS - The Lovely Wounded

Fool on you if you thought the mighty Hendinia's streak would be broken tonight even with a foreign language entry. Meanwhile we also welcome back Bøtanikkä after last contest's withdrawal! QUALIFIED :: Bøtanikkä :: LA NIÑA - FIGLIA D' 'A TEMPESTA QUALIFIED :: Hendinia :: Klavdia & ARCADE - Anemos

Cow's K-pop offering unfortunately didn't win over enough of the pop base and ends their streak tonight. We also aren't waving any pom-poms for Aelandor tonight who can't join their sister nation in the final. 27th :: A-Konohagakure :: CHANMINA - TEST ME34 points: +8 Mothertopia +5 Hushkanukia +4 Lotunia +4 Ben's Sanctuary +4 Ajanaeda +3 Freidland +3 East Rukahavian +3 Juranabaijan 27th :: Aelandor :: Pom Pom Squad - Villain35 points: +12 Taahino +8 Seyetana +5 Macromia +5 Thelonia +4 Sovarasma +1 Eledan As that is half of the NQ's revealed we will now go back to revealing some good news.

Unfortunately no luck for our returning entrant in D'yermak'er, whose representative TĀLĀ had made the final on her three previous occasions. Meanwhile sadly we also don't have enough room for Flynnonda once more. 28th :: Flynnonda :: crushed - silene33 points: +12 Sandenia +8 Pagasa +4 Mothertopia +4 Hushkanukia +3 Pestolia +1 N DNTN +1 Cumulonimbia 28th :: D'yermak'er :: TĀLĀ - Ghosts34 points: +10 Republique d'Askorza +6 New Lexico +5 Yehesi +5 Altyr Muunilinst +4 Scotland 2 +4 Ojnoj

Former BGT star Connie Talbot is our next to depart with Déyyess' mellow offering also proving not quite enough to qualify. 29th :: Freidland :: Connie Talbot - Original30 points: +12 Lookylion +7 Sandenia +6 Jupiterdonia +5 Juranabaijan 29th :: Ojnoj :: Déyyess - Lips Like Sugar28 points: +7 Republique d'Askorza +7 Trifoski +5 Cheiron +3 New Lexico +2 D'yermak'er +2 Greenfroze +1 Taahino +1 Harmonica

An unfortunate placement for the first of our 50th anniversary entries to be revealed as Sandénia's Shawn Mendes leaves us next. We also say goodbye to Macromia. 30th :: Sandénia :: Shawn Mendes - Heavy28 points: +8 Freidland +7 Herbilore +6 Hushkanukia +5 Flynnonda +2 Lotunia 30th :: Macromia :: Franc Moody - Bloodlines28 points: +7 Aelandor +5 Seyetana +5 Greenfroze +5 Harmonica +3 Scotland 2 +2 Thelonia +1 Niceland

Sadly for Harmonica, entering a Dan to a Dan contest hadn't worked out. No such luck for Danaeviia's biggest supporters in East Rukahavian either. 31st :: East Rukahavian :: The Hidden Cameras - Undertow18 points: +10 Bronzil +4 FARC +2 N DNTN +2 Aeroche 31st :: Harmonica :: Dan Black - Wonder27 points: +8 Niceland +6 Dobago +4 The Spodic Empire +4 Fljotavik +3 Aelandor +1 Republique d'Askorza

Our unfortunate last placers come from Pagasa whose late votes just prevented a 33% deduction into single digit points, otherwise our prior contest runner-up hadn't such a good time finishing right at the other end with the least number of supporters across the whole contest. 32nd :: Pagasa :: Cameron Winter - Nausicaä (Love Will Be Revealed)11 points: +7 Cumulonimbia +3 Hushkanukia +1 Herbilore 32nd :: Lentyll :: Hiro Shinosawa - SUNFADED16 points: +10 Persephonia +6 Trifoski

well we've announced half of our qualifiers so how about we take a look at the unfortunate entrants at the bottom end of the scoreboard...
