As long as it's not Switzerland I'll be happy. I've seen that song entered elsewhere like 100 times before and it's won every time (no doubt the attraction for entering it here)

Or Northern Ireland, it's too similar to last edition's winner.

Fair enough. As per usual, I'd be happy with about 15 songs winning.

I know what you mean about Northern Ireland, although I prefer it to our last winner anyway.

Finally been able to listen to Switzerland. And now my points plans are messed up - the one that bans mobile listening would be a good one wouldn't it

Voted

I won't be around tonight as have work - joys of being an entertainer - will catch up around midnight when I've finished

I'd love a french win, can't stop playing the song

Seems like the obvious choice to me, would love to be proven wrong because then I'll seriously regret not sending it last edition.

France is definitely good, but shouldn't win, not her again, just because I'm growing very tired of her now.

Hoping for one of Azores, Denmark, Gotland, Scotland and Switzerland, but I also really like Algeria, Croatia, France, Liechtenstein, Malta, Netherlands, Shetland Islands, Slovakia and Spain.

I'd quite like Spain to win just because it's so fresh compared to all the boring songs that do well.

Hey guys! Long time no compete! :P

So, I've finally finished the hell that is third year of uni, and so I'm looking forward to coming back for DSFE 78. In the meantime, I may just post some reviews of this final, which will mean absolutely nothing to the results

Welcome back! You can send your votes for this final if you want. There's a little 1.5 hours left to vote.

This - I preferred her last two entries (even the one that was eliminated in the QF) anyway.

Oh, welcome back! I've always enjoyed your entries.

There's 1.5 hours left to vote! We're still missing a few player votes, so get those in. Audience jury are also welcomed to vote!

Hello! Is your taste still the same as mine?

I'm gonna hurry my votes in for tonight, so we'll see!

Sent my votes!

Any idea what time results will be starting?

Wait, who am I submitting my votes to?

My votes are in! I did a quick ranking of each song based on five different categories - melody, voice, instrumentation, instant appeal, and individuality. I ranked my 12 points as first in melody and instant appeal (to myself, of course), second in instrumentation, third in individuality, and seventh in voice. Basically, I'm a fan.

Decent final all round though. There was nothing there I hated, although quite a bit of 'this song fits the brief but doesn't do a lot for me'.

Yes! Now that I have received all of the votes, and the ScoreWiz is done, I'd say we'll give people about 30 or so minutes to get online and then results will be at 7:30. Does that sound good to everyone?

That's great for me - looking forward to them!

Fine by me

Fine by me as well. Can we reveal our countries now?

VOTING IS CLOSED!

Results will take place in about 30 minutes as I just put the finishing touches on things. Feel free to publicly announce your countries now!
