KingOfTheRhinos

let me begin by thanking  @Agger and @Wumo for their great work
I went through the same experience of hosting and and I know it's not easy
 I was frustrated , especialy because  english is my third language  and i dont have any knowledge in design 
 I began to question myself like @Wumoif I was  good enough for hosting 
I've tried my best dispite that  i  made the same error like @Werloc  
but in the end I was really satisfied  and a big thanks to @OlympicIRL who helped and supported me 
congratulations @heywoodu  and i hope you will host the next contest 
 
#TISCinNED

Gets me an easy podium! I have lots more up my sleeve. I don't think Riptide was the best song this contest but it's the most well known. I should of went with another song from Vance Joy. Dream Your Life Away had multiple songs I could see win TISC.

Me: Always 1 place behind the Netherlands. 
Also Me: Congratulations on such a great performance this year! 
 

We're living in a mad world.... I shed a tear for you.

should be a new reaction...

While I awarded 11 points to Austrlalia, I do realize it's overrated. I just have some good memories from back when that song featured heavily on the radio. It was hard to put that aside.

wow!!! really didn't expect someone here to like the song that much! It's a very important and representative song of Portugal, and thats why I shared it here, so i'm really happy someone liked it that much

Please notice me if there are any mistakes in the scoreboard. I will then fix them tomorrow. 
May you all have a good day, evening or night.  
I'm tired, so it's goodnight from me!

Again, huge congrats to @heywoodu and Netherlands on a very impressive victory  
 
And big thanks to the Danish hosts @Wumo and @Agger for all their hard work in organising another fantastic and entertaining contest!! And @Wumo time to take a breath now and enjoy a well deserved break after your fine hosting duties, you gave us all a very enjoyable day here on the forum 
 
 
Thanks so much to all who voted for Ireland, especially Argentina for the 12 points and Egypt for awarding a beautiful bronze . Very happy with our performance and again, thanks to all who at least enjoyed Moya Brennan's song on some level
 

Well, the Lithuanian performance this year was pretty close to awful, but I guess that's the lesson for me that I'll probably stop playing strategic games and just send songs that I feel are right for me, no matter where they end up in the scoretable.
 
Congratulations @heywoodu with the victory. Since you climbed up to my 3rd place, I'm pretty happy with how things turned out, although I didn't feel as invested to root for someone as previous years, the songs did not impact me emotionally this time around.
 
Grats to Australia, Hungary and Sweden for a great run, it was a very close battle between you.
 
Picking the song for 2020 is going to be a headache, I'm usually much more prepared for this, but see you all after the snow melts.
 
It might not have been a fun year for Lithuania, but I'm glad that I can meme my way to Hell twice a year with all you guys and gals.

By the way, major applause for @Wumo. Might have made a mistake that kind of spoiled the total final result, but overall I think he did a great job and deserved a round of applause  

Second place hopefully
I got 3rd last time and looking to do myself one better!

Congratulations @heywoodu

Congratulations   Netherlands and @heywoodu!!! TISC Open 2019 CHAMPIONS!!!
