I came here to post my biannual thanks for this contest (a community, actually) and the first thing I see is a bestmen 2.0 from India with a lot of salt
 
I mean, a lot of songs I like usually do average and I've gotten lucky with a few actually winning the contest, but English or not, if it's good, it's good, If it's shit, well...
 
But first of all, I send my congrats to @Wumo and @Agger for hosting the contest. It was well-run, despite a few headaches (I know, I've been in your shoes before) and Wumo, I'm impressed you went from newbie to host in 12 months. I remember when you first came here wanting to watch it live, so I'm glad we made you feel welcomed
 
@Olympian1010 and I worked hard to get our entry a good placing, so we're very glad it got 5th place, which is better than what we had earlier this year. I was worried about this a bit considering that we also sent fun to the contest last year, but I'm glad it turned out well.
 
Congrats to @heywoodu for the victory on top of that Eurovision win. I'm not sure how you will juggle hosting both contest next year, should you go down that route, but I wish you good luck. Also, I didn't vote for you (but @Olympian1010 did), so that should've been an indication that you would win
 
@KingOfTheRhinos, congrats on getting silver. @Olympian1010 liked the song more than I do (I gave you 3 points, sorry), but what a worthy runner-up. I was actually pulling for you to win
 
@Belle Congrats on getting 3rd place. Yours was one of the few songs I knew about beforehand (the others were entries from France and Romania @Bohemia @Benolympique @IoNuTzZ)

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  

@dezbee2008 and I are going to win so hard this spring.

Congrats @heywoodu 
 
This is where I say something clever, but I got nothing, except 5th place (both individually and in the team event)
 
 

Shot myself in the foot lol

Everyone is talking Netherlands this, Australia that, Sweden... yadda yadda yadda
 
I welcome our overlords Spain that are the true winners of this competition and all 12 points are belong to us (them)

So Poland got mad that Greece "only" gave them 6 points... and all the while they awarded a grand sum of zero in return

US Virgin Islands *runs*

Good description of this voting round.
 

Boy, I sure hope Australia doesn't get the 11 or 12 here, because if they do, they'd need to give big points to the Netherlands!

Well, would you look at that? All I had to do was say "USA 12" once and I got it
 
But then again, I kinda predicted it since, again, @Finnator123 and I pretty much have the same tastes

Well, we're saved... for now lol

If you say it enough times, it might come true...

If you say it enough times, it might come true...

Can someone please explain why the United States started identifying themselves as Colombia?

@OlympicIRL never liked winners. He just liked winning.

Funnily enough, all winners come from the European Union.
 
I doubt Great Britain will win ever again.

Yeah, you should definitely thank @dezbee2008 more than me. I’m pretty sure I tossed Slovakia in the bin right away 

In that stance, I guess both of us are what we call 'woke'. We have done some shady shit over there, so I'm not surprised
 
Also, the song was hella catchy
