Apparently it's this part. "en nergens is een leeuw"

I liked the part early on when the singer said something like "Americans es in Neum", which sounds a lot like "The Americans are in Neum". Neum being the sole coastal town of Bosnia and Herzegovina, whose name basically translates as "no mind", hence why people like to joke about it here.

New Zealand went from being medal favorites to not even making the cut all within one Olympiad.

Importantly, however, I am pretty sure the interest in hosting would rise given that not an entire day would need to be sacrificed for TISC.

Honestly, having the Grand Final spread on two consecutive days could be a pretty good idea. Takes some pressure off the hosts, gives us more time to absorb the scores and various battles, plus it could even add some extra dimension to the whole experience (for example, there could be an official press conference for the overnight top 3 staged at the conclusion of day 1).

I am kind of dreading the continuation of this contest since I can't see this one ending well for us.

@konig What are the two "joke" songs? I'm really curious. I guess one of the two is ?

Slovakia is a part of Russia?

Also can anyone contact @Ionoutz24 outside of Totallympics? Dnl reported his votes contain a mistake (4pts to Russia).

Here, but it will start showing only after WC starts. Number of counting results = Number of WC races held https://www.ibsf.org/en/rankings/rankings?season=2021&ctype=1&session=

SRB 12 ROU 11 has been their pattern recently.

I can. I always found folktronica... repulsive? Just my personal taste of course.

I'll make it a bit more challenging than our Ukrainian friend. Last three results: 2020 Annual - 26th 2020 Open - 26th 2021 Annual - 25th One more 25th or 26th place today and I am out.

Czech Republic breaks 100 pts for the first time ever. Amazing. I wonder how that feels? I'll never experience it for sure, as we are headed for yet another mid-20s result. Top 20 may be salvegable, at best.

My guess would been @dezbee2008, but apparently you went against the odds and gave tham only 11.

Canada has two golds (!), but only 30 pts overall. Maybe people got tired of Oh Canada? Either way, their quest to become the first nation with 4 straight podium is in tatters.

They will. Insane, but apparantely they get off on risking their Committee status.

So... Any guesses for the main prize

Nice song, even if vocals don't match the amazing tune imo.

So yeah, I am posting these using my super-old laptop without any shift buttons. I LITERALLY HAVE TO USE CAPSLOCK TO WRITE CAPITAL LETTERS What's up with Argentina though. They haven't scored points from me for years, and this year they get 10+9. Did you get a new coach or what -questionmark

Croatia Pozdrav cijenjeni članovi foruma. Svjedočimo neobičnom izdanju ovog natjecanja, ali ono mora ići dalje i radujemo se novom pobjedniku - tko god to bio. Slijede glasovi hrvatskog žirija... Hello distinguished members of the forum. We are witnessing an unusual edition of this contest, but the show must go on and we excited to find out a new winner - whoever that turns out to be. Croatian jury votes are as follows... Italy 10 Argentina 9 China 8 Greece 7 Denmark 6 Lithuania 5 Indonesia 4 Israel 3 Ireland 2 Mexico 1

Fun fact. Czech Republic has already tied their best ever result with 82 pts on board. They will absolutely smash it...

At least 5 nations are stastically on course to their PB. Malta is probably having their worst start to a Grand Final in history.
