    Back to the music now (I use that term loosely)

    Before even the NF Rejects contest kicked off the season, we had to find our new Martina for the year, the person for whom tuning could be a dirty word, the one who gives the performance of their dreams - proving that one man's dream is another's nightmare, please put your hands together for .....Vitalij Halj!

    Feel free to sing along if you can work out what the lyrics are ;)

    Sad thing is, the rehearsal was almost ok, shows that it's easy to fall apart on the big occasion...

    What a classic! I just love that backing singer's face when he "hits" that note :D

    A couple of things to note in that section, Empress Plum only entered 4 contests, but gave us fantastic Fantasy songs, including Katzenjammer which is currently appearing in Semi Final 2.

    On the other end of the spectrum we have Nicky2win87 who has the great honour of being the FM with the greatest number of last places with 4 overall, take a bow Nicky!

    The worst thing is, I entered only a handful of contests last year and still managed to do better than this year! :o Ah well, 2013 will be my year :p

    So I've broken away from announcing in 10's in order that there can be special comments given to the FM who finished in 33rd place.

    This FM entered every single contest that we had, yup - every single one, and even managed to get three qualifiers into the Fantasy Semi Final this year, however, this did not help him get out of his lowly placing

    Esteemed audience, I give you, the FM for whom musical taste will never get in the way of artistic integrity...


    (23)Drew Peacock 331pts 26/26


    I don't want to be the one who points out that you won this accolade last year too ;) But keep going, as I bloody love Haloo Helsinki!

    It's where he came in last year's standings

    Back of the net! Thank you to those who voted for my selections (I could easily list them) and for those who didn't they can listen to the Dirty Chicken.;) It all went wrong when thms said I was a contender this year. :cool:;)

    Now for the next 3 FM's in the Ultimate Contest:


    32nd (32) Suzy07 345pts 16/26

    Same position as last year ;) A mighty 3 qualifiers for the Fantasy SF's though!


    31st (3) steeleuro_wolf 361pts 13/26

    If he hadn't been moving all round Europe, I reckon wolfie would have stormed the Top 10


    30th (6) cherubmattd 394pts 15/26
    Just ended up missing too many damn contests matt ;)

    And so to our next FM that entered every one of the 26 contests ....


    29th (33) big bro geek 402pts 26/26

    Despite winning Fantasy Heat 4 and getting 3 qualifiers through, this wasn't enough to cancel out 10 results that he had that resulted in single figures. Still, he's been a busy boy as we know ;)

    28th (58) dylanpartyon 413pts 18/26

    Dylan has been silently racking up the points in recent contests, a personal thanks from me for Delta Rae in Fantasy 8!


    27th ESCRoss 428pts 26/26

    Many would have been put off by coming last in their first ever contest, but Ross saw this as a challenge! And although he also had the dubious honour of getting nul in Fantasy 5 (yay! I'm not the only person to have done that now!) He's also managed3 qualifiers


    26th 21stCenturyBoy 438pts 20/26

    Would have been so much better if some non-voting hadn't have happened!
