France with 28 golds and Netherlands with 18 seems like a wild prediction  

Hi everyone! 
 
A bit of a family emergency is going on right now (my dad isn’t doing too well, he’s on his way to the hospital as I type this), which may explain my lack of inactivity on Totallympics and updating all of the various sporting events 
 
If anyone wants to post any of them that’ll be appreciated, and if not then I’ll post them when I’m fully back! 
 
Actually, it might even be within a few days. I’ve just thought about it, and when I’m not busy visiting him at the hospital, I might choose to watch/share results of some sports. Bit of a confusing response I know, but to explain my thought process, watching (along with playing, but irrelevant point) sports and sharing results on Totallympics are two of my favourite things to do. Trying to not worry too much when personal problems is hard for me, and it might be what I need to not freak out and have mental breakdowns every couple of minutes. But we’ll see.

So it seems like the dramatic announcement was all to say she is trying out a new hydration drink this year

Quite late to this but congrats to  on winning and thanks to @Henry_Leonfor hosting an amazing contest. 
 
Thanks to everyone who voted for us, with a special thanks going to @hckošice for giving us a gold medal. Really glad we finished on the left side of the board with a rock song (considering they don't really do that well in these type of contests). 
 
In terms of the open contest, I am still interested in hosting but will have to see how it fits around me going to University in September. Meaning it could be earlier or later than usual. 

It's been more than a week, but here is my personal 12
 
12 -- 
11 -- 
10 -- 
9 -- 
8 --  (for the record @Fer GUA I found out about Gaby Moreno more than a decade ago so I just have to give points)
7 -- 
6 -- 
5 -- 
4 -- 
3 -- 
2 -- 
1 -- 
 
R1 -- 
R2 --  
 
I'm just happy that despite finishing 6th, Team USA 'won' the medal table, so thank you to everyone who gave points.

Scottish football, aye!
 
 

Apologies to @Henry_Leon for not being there yesterday for the show. I was traveling home from my vacation and was only able to get caught up now. What an amazing show it was.

Well done to our other medalists @Wanderer and @Belle for a great result

Finally I want to say a huge thank you to everyone who voted for my entry at this contest. Really glad you enjoyed it

Thanks so much to @dcro and @Glen for awarding your silver medal to the Irish song and to @Wumo and the Italian jury @Henry_Leon@SteveParker@Gianlu33@Pablita for awarding your 12 points to Ireland this year

Thanks as always for everyone for continuing to participate and make this show interesting and entertaining for us all
 

Wonderful to see Georgia make it

You’d think the curlers would get the right medals, but apparently not 
 

Here are some of the other songs that were part of the Irish national selection final shortlist. I was so close to choosing either of the "Heaven" songs by Cian Ducrot or the one by Niall Horan but in the end went for Picture This.



Picture This - Leftover Love
 

 
 
 
Cian Ducrot - Heaven
 

 
 
 
CMAT - Stay For Something Good
 

 
 
 
Niall Horan - The Show
 

 
 
 
Gavin James - White Noise
 

 
 
 
Cian Ducrot ft. Matteo Romano - Part Of Me
 

 
 
 
Jazzy - Giving Me
 

 
 
 
 
Niall Horan - Heaven
 

 
 
 
 
CMAT - California
@Olympian1010 this would have been a good entry for the TISC Open last year in California.... "I'm heading to California, don't say I didn't warn you )

Now that it's all over, I'd like to offer my congratulations to @Gianlu33,@Henry_Leon, @Pablita, @SteveParker on their win , but also to @Wandererand @Belle on their medals . 
 
Extending my congratulations to @Henry_Leon, who run the contest smoothly throughout and hosted a great show this weekend . 
 
Thank you to those who voted for our song, @Roamingrover86, @OlympicIRL, @Wumo, @IoNuTzZ, @Wanderer, @vinipereira . Unfortunately my song choice proved to be completely unsuccessful and the result is rather awful, but it is what it is. We can only aim at better results from here.
 
A huge thank you to our teammates @Belle, @Wanderer, @NikolaB, @Ionoutz24 . You gifted us the team event gold, as I think our song contributed just 7 points out of the 466. 
 
Below you can see my personal ballot.
 
1st   12 pts   Netherlands  2nd   11 pts   Spain  3rd   10 pts   Indonesia  4th   9 pts   Ireland  5th   8 pts  United States  6th   7 pts   Chile  7th   6 pts   France  8th   5 pts   Croatia  9th   4 pts   India  10th   3 pts   Portugal  11th   2 pts   Brazil  12th   1 pts   Czechia    Res1   Great Britain  Res2   New Zealand   Res3   Sweden  
As a general comment, we were two jury members this time, however we voted 22 different songs. Brazil and Portugal were the only songs that got points from both of us. 
 
This was my 6th TISC. I haven't voted for the winning song twice and both times it was Italy.
 
This was the first time that I didn't give points to any of the eventual medallists. New Zealand and Sweden were both among my reserves.
 
I have never been as sure that a song is going to win, as I was with the Dutch entry this time. I'm very surprised it only got 10th place.
 
As a whole, this was another fun experience and the fight for gold was thoroughly enjoyable.
 
I'm looking forward to seeing all of you again in the next open contest this autumn!
