back once again

Mine is March 21, which incidentally is the same birthday as the old forum lol

Good luck @Werloc I'll be waiting for your song to go live on the internet

Happy birthday Dan

Happy 2018, people.

Merry Christmas to all those celebrating. And for the record, here in Florida we don't believe in snow

Stream was blocked here in the US (I told them I would drop them if they went the same way Eurovision went with the streaming), but thankfully found another one. Russia: Surprised Polina won. I knew she would do well, but not THAT well. Georgia: Grigol could've scared all of us to a 4th win, but online voters say otherwise Australia: I'm glad Isabella did well, "Speak Up" was a good song. Netherlands: Surprised Fource got 4th place (get it, Fource, 4th) They were also my number 1 Belarus: I'm happy with Helena in 5th, I knew she would get top 5. Armenia: Thank god Misha didn't as well as I had hoped, especially since I predicted him in my mind to win Ukraine: Aww, I wanted Anastasiya to finish in the top 5, but this will do. Poland: Deserved placing for Alicja, tho she sings beautifully Malta: This pisses me off, Gianluca should've finished in the top 5. Serbia: How Irina and Jana placed in the top 10 amazes me. Italy: The only one to match my unwritten prediction. Congrats, Maria Iside Macedonia: Why you gotta do my girl Mina like that? Albania: Ana deserved better. Let's be real here. Portugal: I know Mariana had some good intentions, but I felt like her song is meh tbh Ireland: Muireann deserved a little better than 15th, people. Come on! Cyprus: How is Nicole last? I mean her song isn't that great, but you can't shaft her like that. Overall, it was alright, the hosting was good, it got great when Lizi Pop was celebrating with Grigol everytime he got a 12. Georgia is a beautiful country, definitely on my list of places to travel

I can't wait to take you all to Disney World. I know you all want to Seriously, thank you all for the feedback. I knew you guys got my back.

Thanks for everything @amen09 The US delegation is grateful to have visit your country for the contest. I thank you all for suggesting I should host. I won't make promises, but I would definitely put on a great show if chosen.

Wow, 3rd place, and to think we led for much of the voting round, it was funny that we never left the top 3 (or something like that) the entire time. Also, not bad considering Dia Frampton was a last-minute choice, so I didn't know how it was received, but it seemed to be overwhelmingly positive, and for that, I am grateful. Thank you to those who gave us points 12 - @intoronto @justony 11 - @Werloc @Dolby 10 - @kungshamra71 9 - @Gianlu33 @Henry_Leon @Pablita @SteveParker @mrv86 8 - @OlympicIRL @bestmen @amen09 @dcro 7 - @Janakis @uk12points @Damian @heywoodu 5 - @Herki @Glen @rybak 4 - @Bohemia @Benolympique @africaboy @konig @LDOG @Matt 3 - @hckosice @Agger 1 - @MHSN @Griff88

I did (and I still have it), but I've been so busy with work that I hadn't had time.

Thank you all for the congrats for 3rd place. I'll get a chance to properly thank people later for the points, but this is a victory for us after coming 4th the last 2 Open editions... The annual on the other hand...

3rd place, that more than makes up for the time that I was the last to vote and gave Canada the bronze, so #redemption Anyway, congrats (again) @OlympicIRL

Come on, Ireland can't have their 4th win already now... can they?

I'm fine. Actually, I'm really nervous, especially since Dia was my last-minute pick.

Alright, kids, if you're just joining us, @vinipereira is doing what we here at Totallympics call it "pulling a Bulgaria", meaning he is announcing his votes one by one while the rest of us sit impatiently to see who will win the whole thing. It's not often the last country does this, this I can tell from experience

Well, if Colombia does win, and decide not to host 2018, then I'll take the challenge.

My apologies, it was @Damian who sent the Colombian song. Either way, we'll be making history (I hope)

@AtleNal707 and I could still make history apparently. I'm just happy I'll be having my first TISC medal in my name

I'm just waiting to see if @dcro gives Colombia 12 so that I can concede defeat

Okay, I see, so I gotta try to fend off Colombia now, huh? @dcro @vinipereira It's all up to you now

My sister does the same thing. She's known as the Ketchup Queen in my family.

OH HELL NO!!!!!! I'm okay with any toppings of pizza as long as it isn't anchovies and certainly not this abomination

You guys are talking about dinner meanwhile I just had 5 slices of cheese pizza for lunch.

Farmer's Markets here in Florida are full of oranges, tangerines, grapefruits, etc.
