Totallympics Annual International Song Contest 2025 Welcome back to Session 3 of the Totallympics Annual International Song Contest 2025! We resume the second-half of the contest with Ireland holding a significant lead of 31 points ahead of nearest rivals France. Just behind France we have a band of nations bunched closely together: Argentina, Albania, Romania, Canada with Spain and Mexico not too far adrift. We have just completed one half of the contest so there is huge scope for changes to happen and in TISC they usually do! Let's see what the second-half has in store for us. Opening the voting in the third session is the Israeli national jury. Good evening Israel. May we have your votes please?

I deliberately scheduled a long interval now so I can attend to "normal" life activities before coming back to the second-half. Thanks to everyone who is staying active and posting throughout... makes it so much more enjoyable as always

Pairs Event We now know the 16 nations that will participate in the Pairs Competition that kicks-off in the second-half of the contest. It involves the 12 nations who were eliminated in the team event in sessions 1 and 2 and they are joined by the 4 lowest ranked nations individually at the halfway point. Pairs are balanced by pairing the best ranked team with the lowest ranked team and so on. Links to the rules for the pairs event can be found in the opening post in this thread. So here are your 8 pairs / / / / / / / /

Team Event The top 7 teams advance to the next round! Unfortunately the 8th and 9th teams are eliminated and will play no further part in the team event. As such we say goodbye to the Limerick Leprechauns and the Galway Girls. Those nations move forward to the Pairs Event which will take commence at the start of session 3!

Totallympics Annual International Song Contest 2025 Thank you Greece! The home fans go wild as Ireland receive the 12 points from the Greek jury. It's Ireland's 5th gold medal of the contest and pushes them over the 100-points milestone! It also comes at a crucial point as we conclude the first-half of the contest with Ireland holding a 31 point advantage over nearest challengers France. The battle is just hotting up however and we are just at the halfway mark with 17 of the 34 juries having cast their votes. We go for a long break now of 2 hours and 30 minutes! Plenty of time to get some rounds in at the bar or for the more civilised, perhaps a chance to sample some local cuisine!
