Totallympics Open International Song Contest 2020


 Share

Recommended Posts

It was a good feeling to come back into the top 10 after a long streak of mediocre performances.

 

It was also really fun to break the 100 point mark.

 

If this song didn't succeed, I would probably question every single song choice into oblivion, because I was really starting to get lost whilst guessing what you would enjoy :p 

 

This makes it easier to send a song in Lithuanian for 2021, because I won't feel as bad if I can't repeat a top 10 and I have a really nice one ready for you, I just know that it's really a gamble not going for English every single time.

 

Congratulations to the podium, @NikolaB probably won't understand what happened, nice streak for @intoronto and a memorable experience for @Glen

 

Best wishes to everyone sharing the top 10 with me, a lot of the songs I really liked sneaked into it, so I'm pretty happy with the results overall. Expected a bit more love for Moldova, China, Great Britain, Brazil and Czech Republic, but I can't expect all of my favourites to make it to the top. 

 

Thank you to everyone that voted for Lithuania, huge shout out to @titicow for that gold from Brazil, it means a lot. Honorary shout out for @Bohemia since it was top in her list as well. I think there was also a medal from team Denmark and I appreaciate that one a lot as well and if I remember correctly, that was the only medals and a perfect 1-1-1 set.

 

Another great contest and can't wait to hang out with you all in Canada.

What an epic contest, privileged to part of the drama right until the very end!
 

Huge conrgratulations to :SRB Serbia for their first TISC victory, a dominant win by all means! Ireland salutes Irish Stew of Sindidun :hatoff:

 

Congrats to :CAN Canada for their second medal of the year, a very impressive year for them with a gold and silver in both 2020 contests.

 

And finally, so delighted for :MLT Malta on making it onto the TISC podium for the very first time. A great achievement for the tiny island nation who now has a shiny medal in their cabinet! It was great to be part of this historic moment also :)

 

And finally, a big big big thank you to @heywoodu for all of his work in the last few weeks and for taking on the mantle of host. I have enjoyed every moment of this final, but throughout the whole edition, it has been a pleasure to be part of and thank you so much for your efforts! And now, you can take a breather and put your feet up for a well earned rest!

Thanks to @dcro also for those entertaining interviews and for all the other little stats and things that just helps make TISC even more enjoyable.

 

And as always, thank you to all who participated in the contest. I feel like we just keep getting stronger year after year, and it's great to see interest and enthusiasm is as high as ever.

 

Just a final thank you to all who placed votes in the Irish basket, especially to @Vektor for giving me a very nice surprise with that 12 points!

 

 

Enjoy the celebrations everyone!! Long live TISC :cheer::toast:

Yeah alright, the last scoreboards had to be fixed in a hurry after the mixup was discovered, I might have looked over a flag or two :d
