Hipooo

Well... I'm late, as always, but unfortunately I couldn't follow live and I've just finished catching up with the thread. 
 
Congratulations to our winner @Hipooo and to @Belle and @Erigert on their medals. 
 
Well done to our host @Cinnamon Bun, who put up a huge effort managing the contest.
 
Thank you to everyone who voted for our song and helped us achieve this 5th place. I saw we were very close to a podium finish, but this is still a great result.
 
Congratulations to @Makedonas on the very successful song choice.
 
I'll now share my ballot. 
 
 1st   12 pts   Romania  2nd   11 pts   Bulgaria  3rd   10 pts   Sweden  4th   9 pts   Mexico  5th   8 pts   Brazil  6th   7 pts   Indonesia  7th   6 pts   China  8th   5 pts   France  9th   4 pts   Denmark  10th   3 pts   Spain  11th   2 pts   Italy  12th   1 pts   Albania    Res1   Ireland  Res2   India  Res3   Hungary  
I'm looking forward to seeing you all in the next contest!

I still can't get over the shock!
 
Many thanks to all the juries who voted for . From the number of points, it looks like you either loved or hated the song. Nothing in between. I was quite curious to see how the scoring for a stereotypical four-chord song would develop. And it looks like the mainstream has won this time. 
 
At the same time, I want to congratulate  @Belle for a great and exciting battle, and also  @Erigert for the first podium! I am already looking forward to seeing you on this ground next year.
I must not forget the great organization of   @Cinnamon Bun! Great job! I realize that during the organization there were many obstacles that you had to deal with. My admiration for you is even greater. 
 
As the winner of the competition, I am happy to take over the hosting from Great Britain (who took over the hosting from us the year before). I will try to create an even more impressive event than when held the competition two years ago.

And now ladies and gentlemen, please stand for the final time for the national anthem. 
 
 
So that's it for another year
 
A big thanks to @OlympicIRL and @Sindo for helping me set everything up and enduring my constant pestering. 
 
Same goes for @heywoodu @Wanderer and @Topicmaster1010 for updating the scoreboard throughout the day. 
 
And once again congrats to @Erigert @Belle and @Hipooo for getting top 3 as well as everyone who voted for Maximo Park. 
 
I hope you enjoyed yourselves despite the mistakes and I'll see you all next year in . 

There are some chat "about me, without me"  

I'm coming home right now and I can't believe my eyes, what's happen here

We´ll see. I am in a new job, it is really time consuming as heck, but well payed in other hand.. so, I have to show some commitment in the first month(s)
 
That is the reason why I visit rarely the forum right now, hopefully it will ease after the winter

Congratulation to Czechia on second win!  @Hipooo  

@Belle Sweden will eventually win! Just keep up and enjoy the show, 2nd place is great, although I know hoe bittersweet it feels after coming short for couple of points at Annual this year  
 
Congrats to @Erigert on first ever podium  
 
And finally to @Cinnamon Bun on hosting and all the work you did! 

My anti-establishment voting stance is running low if my 12s keep winning...
 
Congrats @Hipooo on your victory. Funny how the top three are the same three stuck in my head for days

Thanks @Cinnamon Bun for organizing
 
And thanks everyone for providing a great days worth of entertainment. It was a lot of fun. Already looking forward to the next edition!

Very happy with debut, thanks to everyone for voting Albanian entry!
Congrats also to for winning and for giving a fight and make this edition exciting until the last voting.
 
Last but not least, thank you @Cinnamon Bun for your efforts!

Not really going to stay for the afterparty, so to say, because I desperately need to go to sleep now, but it was fun as always and thank you @Cinnamon Bun for all your effort! I know it was a shitload of stress, but you managed to get through it and we all had fun anyway
