Ha ha, Damjan, well done. I was busy last night, decided to watch this race today, and still hardly believe Jernej won.

Well done, I am happy for our colleagues from Slovakia. And also surprised over quite good performance of our team. We competed with very weak team, without Gregorin (doping abuse), Mali (retired) and Fak (illness), only with Bauer.

@OlympicIRL I also remember there was once a rule about placing being first factor for hosting, so my support is also with or to host next Open event. So, if @dezbee2008 is ready, she has my total support.

So, once more, here is a tribute to our winners, their live performance, shot at three different locations last year (2016). Give it up for The Stunning from Ireland !!!

Once again I was too busy to be with all of you yesterday, but I took the time to read all post in few hours today. If I am not mistaken, this is second time has finished in top 10, which was my primary goal, second one was getting to 100 points, missing by only seven. I know my choice was a little too "pop extreme", and I confess, Tina was the reason to put this song in the running. It was very risky, could well ended up with being victorious or place it well in the bottom, so I have to be satisfied. Thank you so much for giving me 12 points, thank you all others noticing our song. Thanks to @amen09 for organizing such great event, I know it is not easy. Congratulations to my good friend @OlympicIRL for another win though this was probably the first time winning song did not get even close on my list. As always, I will be posting final standings according to official Eurovision counting (top 10, without 9 and 11 pts). I can tell you that only by a single point.

Oh, come on, those damn penguins.

So, one more friendly country for me, unbelievable 2 G2 in memory of GJan.

So, I will be the last one, nice one.

This is all rigged up. I am getting countries which I have most contact with , come on.

OK, next combination is 15 and F3.

10 and D1, sorry guys for waiting.

I am sorry, just a moment

OK, so 24 and B1

Cool, I discovered our neighbours.

Cool, thanks, so without any more delays, here is: 21 - A4

@OlympicIRL can I try next, tell me?

So, I can try now, if I understand?

Can I try one, since I am already here?

That is because I am logged in, it is all coming up together

I will try to follow it.

I am sending my votes in the very next moment, so your concerns for are over.

Very sad news for Slovenian biathlon, basically we lost all chances to compete with our women's relay at the Olympics, and even mixed relay.

I totally agree, women's ski jumping also needed time to evolve and now it is much more competitive like 10 years ago. So, I am cheering for Women's NC in 2026, maybe in 2022, if they will start with World cup at least next season.
