Title: ALC 2006

make sure you refresh the ALC main page, the link shuld be off there.

And his intro message is hard to read in time, it is:

ood evening Chernobyl. It\'s lovely to see so many faces glowing with what I hope is pride tonight. I\'d like to say its been a great show, but as my song never made it, clearly it wasn\'t. So without any more ado, here are my votes for the obviously populist but generally inferior songs competing tonight ... :)

Yay!! [R] - Geert - 2006-08-06 9:04:28pm

LOL! They move faster than even Svante'd want them too :) [R] - Frank - 2006-08-06 9:04:38pm
- well open the link, then add: ?delay=100 and change that as you wish to make it faster/slower - Harrow - 2006-08-06 9:07:41pm
  then tell me your ideal speed :)
  - LOL! You are talking to someone who wouldn't even manage to find the link :)) - Frank - 2006-08-06 9:12:06pm
    Anyway, how many sets are we getting today?
    - just the one :) [R] - Harrow - 2006-08-06 9:12:34pm
  - Best is 1000-1500 IMO [R] - Yair - 2006-08-06 9:12:54pm

Mmmm... seems like you need to slow down the greetings and the goddbye message. - Richard_CT - 2006-08-06 9:05:27pm
But I expect you're already working on that!
- Jordi is going to sing all the votes, Paul de Leeuw-style! :) [R] - Yair - 2006-08-06 9:09:44pm
  - ROFL!!! ;))) [R] - Jortsu - 2006-08-06 9:12:00pm
  - He's got his little black book with phone numbers ready :) [R] - Frank - 2006-08-06 9:14:18pm
    - LOL! ;) [R] - Jortsu - 2006-08-06 9:15:29pm

hmmm... - Ben NL - 2006-08-06 9:05:46pm
Congrats Jonas, Yair and the one who wrote McCauls :-)))) So far I'm quite satisfied with this top 5!

Wow! - Jonas - 2006-08-06 9:06:58pm
Thanks a lot! :))
- The first of many 12's I suspect - Congratulations Jonas! [R] - David in Hull - 2006-08-06 9:08:50pm
- Grattis Jonas! :-))) [R] - Luke - 2006-08-06 9:29:12pm

hmmm2... - Yair - 2006-08-06 9:08:17pm
WOW - thanks ade! I admit I may have had your points in mind when I wrote this, but I had no idea it would be that many :))

And Jonas - last year you had to wait for the last jury to get your first 12 - looking better alreay this year. Yay :))

Well done Jonas, Timoteus and Yair :) - Jortsu - 2006-08-06 9:14:16pm
BTW, Jonas, I was *sure* "Save the pigs" was Aviad's entry, when I read the semi 3, but after I read the final entries, I knew Aviad's entry was "Rafael", so I was surprised it was you who wrote that one ;)
- By the way, who IS Rafael? [R] - Frank - 2006-08-06 9:15:26pm
  - Writer or composer (or both) of Andrra 2005 and 2006 :) [R] - Harrow - 2006-08-06 9:17:01pm
  - Rafael Artesero ;) - Jortsu - 2006-08-06 9:17:22pm
    The writer of masterpieces such as "Sense tu" and, especially, "La mirada interior" ;))
    - Oh! Then it's okay that I didn't know him, I suppose :)) [R] - Frank - 2006-08-06 9:19:59pm
  - Hehe, isn't that obvious by the lyrics? :-) [R] - Jonas - 2006-08-06 9:36:34pm
    - I thought that maybe Jenny had dragged a designer along from Andorra ... - Frank - 2006-08-06 9:39:07pm
      ... not that I'd ever consider going on a shopping trip there then, if she had :)
      - Rafael's actually quite funny.... he said soemthing about that he also thought "La mirada interior"... - Jonas - 2006-08-06 9:49:16pm
        ...was a terrible but very funny song, or something :)
        
        Well, he's partly right :) [R] - Frank - 2006-08-06 9:53:15pm
- Same here ... "Llama" was Jonas, "Pigs" was Aviad - but I'm more than pleased about Jonas and Pigs! [R] - Thomas ... eh bien, zut alors! - 2006-08-06 9:18:51pm

Woohoo! My very first message on my brand new PC and it's to say thanks Ade, congrats Harrow...
Posted by Luke on 2006-08-06 9:27:42pm

....the scoreboard and voting is FAB! :-)))

Ben made the scoreboard, so BIG BIG THANKS to him too - Harrow - 2006-08-06 9:32:14pm
If you view the php source code you can still read how he had to explain how to use it to me in childlike terms :)
- lol :-)) [R] - Ben NL - 2006-08-06 9:33:38pm
- Oh that so isn't going to happen. You lost me at p. But well done to you both. :-))) [R] - Luke - 2006-08-06 9:37:29pm
- lol, just did :-) [R] - Jonas - 2006-08-06 9:39:11pm
- Thanks Ben, for the first speed-controlable scoreboard in an MB contest! Looks great :)) [R] - Yair - 2006-08-06 9:39:36pm

Great board indeed. Congrats to Jonas, Timoteus and YAIR!!! The votes run *really* fast tho :-( [R] - Jeremy - 2006-08-06 9:39:27pm
- All will be fixed, Ben has told me how to :) - Harrow - 2006-08-06 9:40:10pm
  And I'll have the full voting schedule up soon :)
- Slow enough now? :) [R] - Harrow - 2006-08-06 9:41:31pm
  - Perfecto. Ta :-)) [R] - Jeremy - 2006-08-06 9:42:28pm
  - And LOL@Ade's lawyers! :-) [R] - Jeremy - 2006-08-06 9:43:10pm

What a day. Good night, and save the pigs! - Yair - Tesco Danz a guade Idä! - 2006-08-06 10:29:37pm
- Night!! Oh, and Harrow, how many sets of votes do we get tomorrow? [R] - Frank - 2006-08-06 10:32:51pm
  - 5 per day, schedule is up :) [R] - Harrow - 2006-08-06 10:35:37pm
    - Oh! That means I'll already be off to Tansania during my votes :(((. [R] - Thomas ... eh bien, zut alors! - 2006-08-06 10:37:47pm
      - They can be rearranged if you wish? Give me a better time :) [R] - Harrow - 2006-08-06 10:38:19pm
        
        Well, I don't want to be a chore! - Thomas ... eh bien, zut alors! - 2006-08-06 10:40:09pm
        I'll be very busy this week anyway - the only evening I'll be around constantly is Tuesday.
        
        That does not mean I won't check whenever I can!
        
        After what the Tescos have done for ALC? Tuesday it is, I'll update the schedule! :) [R] - Harrow - 2006-08-06 11:06:13pm
        
        Oh hey, Harrow, Harrow ... - Thomas ... eh bien, zut alors! - 2006-08-06 11:14:52pm
        "And even though I've said good things about the rest,
        There ain't no doubting that Dan Harrow is the best!"
  - Forget it. I just learned how to click on Shedule :)) [R] - Frank - 2006-08-06 10:35:54pm

Just noticed the voting schedule - I'm wedged between Thomas and Jeremy, could anything be more perfect? - David in Hull - 2006-08-06 10:33:23pm
- Jeremy's back is one of the nicest views imaginable, I had my share during BFC! [R] - Thomas ... eh bien, zut alors! - 2006-08-06 10:34:23pm
  - The front's not bad either! [R] - David in Hull - 2006-08-06 10:35:10pm
    - Let's put it like that ... - Thomas ... eh bien, zut alors! - 2006-08-06 10:38:19pm
      ... the back does not promise anything the front can't deliver ;)
      - ROFL!!!!!!!!!!! [R] - David in Hull - 2006-08-06 10:39:18pm
      - Crikey...LOL! :-) [R] - Jeremy - 2006-08-06 10:40:19pm

Just got home from dinner at a friend's house, and want to say thanks to bkr!
Posted by Richard_CT on 2006-08-08 3:42:11am

For doubling my points total!

Oh, and thanks to Lota, too... - Richard_CT - 2006-08-08 3:47:08am
... for your non-participant douze!
- ;))) [R] - Lota - 2006-08-08 4:50:40am

Was Silvia there? [R] - Victor - 2006-08-08 4:39:09am
- huh????? [R] - javi - 2006-08-08 4:45:58am
  - My thoughts exactly! [R] - Richard_CT - 2006-08-08 4:48:19am
    - Oh well, never mind that guy...congrats on making the Final, Richard!!! I hadn't had the chance to tell you! :)) [R] - javi - 2006-08-08 4:59:40am
      - Thanks! If I finish with 30 points, I'll be very happy. - Richard_CT - 2006-08-08 5:02:17am
        And I'm already working on next year's entry...
        
        Only 30 points? No way!!! :))) - javi - 2006-08-08 5:10:15am
        And boy, you really are ahead of schedule for next year! I, as usual, will write whatever I enter in the last two weeks before the headline!!! ( which will of course explain the ultimate outcome, hehe...:)))
        
        I still have trouble accepting that "Everything" even made the final... - Richard_CT - 2006-08-08 5:15:18am
        ... so 30 points will seem like a victory! I honestly though that it wouldn't finish in the top half of the semi!
        
        As for next year, well, I have an idea that no-one's tried yet, but it's going to be tough to make it work. Better to start early!
        
        Why? It was clever and very well written... - javi - 2006-08-08 5:23:32am
        ...so give yourself credit!!
        
        As for new ideas...boy, I'm out of them! But I guess there's plenty of time to think of some...But knowing me, I doubt I'll be able to come up with something really original...we'll see.
        
        Yeah... it's tough coming up with new ideas, especially with all the critics on the MB! - Richard_CT - 2006-08-08 5:31:40am
        But I had an idea and I'm going to run with it.... all the way to next year's semis!
        
        OK, it's bedtime for me (finally). 'Nite, Javi!
        
        Good Night Richard!!! :))) [R] - javi - 2006-08-08 5:33:17am
        
        You'd be amazed by how many points I gave it in the semi then! [R] - julie@work - 2006-08-08 12:31:10pm
        
        I can't wait to find out! [R] - Richard_CT - 2006-08-08 1:34:07pm

A message from Delia Smith to today's ALC voters on behalf of Tasty Moussaka
Posted by Squint-Eyed Pete D on 2006-08-08 10:00:23am

http://youtube.com/watch?v=O-KizC6wEys

Has anyone actually tried Polle's moussaka yet? [R] - suomigirl - 2006-08-08 10:17:18am
- I'm not so brave to cook it! [R] - orionas - 2006-08-08 10:21:00am
  - Me neither, I rather wait raports by people who have treid it before making it myself [R] - suomigirl - 2006-08-08 10:23:11am
    - Well, moussakas and tomatoes don't go so well so i don't think i'll ever try it! [R] - orionas - 2006-08-08 10:24:57am
    - The thing is that I haven't mentioned quantities, so it should be very much possible to actually make it :-) - [PL]TV HoD - 2006-08-08 2:23:42pm
      Don't know if the Mango chutney holds up, though :-))
- No, Moussaka goes in my "put any old rubbish in, stir and cook" foodcategory. Me not like :) [R] - Frank - 2006-08-08 1:10:42pm
  - what? no way! ;-) [R] - Antti.be - 2006-08-08 1:40:45pm

How do you pronounce Delia btw? - Yair @work - 2006-08-08 10:46:55am
DEEL-ya? Dé-LEE-a?
- 3 syllables Dee Lee A (sharp A) [R] - ade - 2006-08-08 10:48:54am
- Normally Dee Lee A, but DEEL-ya sounds just as good... it's really a regional accent thing. [R] - Nick D. - 2006-08-08 11:05:50am
  - It would be two syllables in Ireland [R] - Keith M - 2006-08-08 11:08:20am
  - Do you mean ...... - julie@work - 2006-08-08 12:00:02pm
    ... the East Anglian region,. or the East Midlands???
    
    Delia's a Norfolk lass so I think us Anglians can claim her as our own!!!
    - I had no idea who she is when I read the song. I thought Delia is a region in Greece or something [R] - Yair @work - 2006-08-08 12:05:49pm
      - Do I sense some Eleni Daniilidiou -vibes in here? [R] - suomigirl - 2006-08-08 12:08:28pm
        
        Eleni always uses curry paste in her moussaka - Yair @work - 2006-08-08 12:15:14pm
        It brings back fond memories of Sania...
      - Delia is quite the icon as far as TV cooks and cookery writers goes in the UK . . - Ryan - 2006-08-08 12:33:03pm
        . . she's sold something like 16 million cookbooks, she was a noun in the Dictionary and she once had the power that when she promoted an ingredient or piece of equipment in her cookbooks and shows like omelette pans and cranberries, supermarkets and shops would literally sell out in gigantic quantities! She is a national institution! Now she owns a football club or something! :-)
        
        Director of Norwich City (with an infamous dsipaly on the pitch a few years back ..... - julie@work - 2006-08-08 12:37:19pm
        ... when she grabbed a mike at half time and made a very embarrassing speech to the fans, imploring them not to abandon the club just becasue they'd been demoted).
        
        I don't think she does cooking any more!
        
        Oh yes, wasn't that her "Let's be havin' you" chant or something like that? LOL! No, she doesn't do cooking anymore . . - Ryan - 2006-08-08 12:40:09pm
        . . she said she thinks she's a little too old fashioned for TV cooking nowadays and she'd happy to leave it to the likes of Jamie Oliver and Co . . probably true but there'll never be anyone like Delia again! :-))
        
        Oh she should disappear from the planet after that plea - Murat Pascha - 2006-08-08 12:45:35pm
        "A message for possibly the best supporters in the world. We need a 12th man here. Where are you? Where are you? Let's be having you! Come on!"
        
        That is what happens when you are fuelled with too much wein!
        
        That was probably the funniest thing that's ever happened in the entire history of the world :) [R] - Nick D. - 2006-08-08 2:45:38pm
        
        www.deliaonline.com tells all [R] - ade - 2006-08-08 12:55:16pm
        
        So she's the UK equivalent to Martha then? [R] - Yair @work - 2006-08-08 1:14:50pm
        
        Kinda . . . just without the criminal record! :-) [R] - Ryan - 2006-08-08 1:40:50pm

LOL!!!! Where Are You? Where Are You? :-) You can tell she likes eurovision... [R] - [PL]TV HoD - 2006-08-08 2:22:45pm

Just a quick note regarding my votes tonight ...

Title: The Tescos "Tesco Dance" - video link

... had a talk with the writer behind "My Grand Prix", Nicole, and she insisted on showing up herself for the voting procedure. She thinks it is only fair as I was merely chosen as a tool to promote her feelings about where eurovision is going.

She also would like you to know that she is not really pleased with the votes she will have to announce, as the majority of entries they will go to cover topics she sees as totally inappropriate for a contest like ALC.

She's floating on her sea of madness again ?! :) [R] - Frank - 2006-08-08 1:52:16pm
- Needless to say, she is shocked and appalled by your entry and considers legal action! [R] - Thomas ... eh bien, zut alors! - 2006-08-08 2:02:40pm
  - I bet she was swearing when she read it, the cute little wild thing! :) [R] - Frank - 2006-08-08 2:12:47pm
    - U got mail ... - Thomas ... eh bien, zut alors! - 2006-08-08 2:31:02pm
      ... she wants to sort it out personally.

Harrow!! what time my votes are announced? - euroUSA - 2006-08-08 3:56:21pm

  - So what? It's getting more exciting now ;) [R] - suomigirl - 2006-08-08 5:15:55pm
  - It was lonely last year... You should be glad Thomas is keeping you company (Jeremy can testify) :-) [R] - Yair - 2006-08-08 5:20:19pm
- HERTZ!!!!!! :-) [R] - [PL]TV HoD - 2006-08-08 5:01:49pm
- Yay LUKE!!!! And WTG Thomas & Frank :-))) And thx for the point Dan :-)) [R] - Jeremy is a paranoid pig - 2006-08-08 5:02:11pm
  - You're just one point behind me now :) Congrats Luke! [R] - Yair - 2006-08-08 5:05:04pm
    - Let's hope for brighter following hours for the both of us :-) [R] - Jeremy is a paranoid pig - 2006-08-08 5:09:33pm
  - You're welcome Jeremy, in the words of countless spokespersons "Everyone deserves 12 points!!" :))) [R] - Dan, Dan, lots to do today Man! - 2006-08-08 6:54:16pm

my ALC winners : Save the pigs and Paranoia :)
Posted by aysun on 2006-08-08 7:12:57pm

so Jonas, that's why we get alone well, I never eat ham! ;)

and joke aside, Paranoia is just the thing that we Turks are all feeling more or less now in Turkey. with war next door, lots of new war scenarios, lots of conspiracy theories it is really hard sometimes to stay cool in here. and I know it is quite impossible now but I still hope that peace comes to the world sooner than we expect.

cheers everyone, take care :)

Thanks for the song support, the peace wish, and most of all - Yair - 2006-08-08 7:38:56pm

Title: The Tescos "Tesco Dance" - video link

... these votes I just had to announce are a disgrace.

Thomas thinks "Moja Generacija" is close to a masterpiece and makes great use of the song. I think it is a downright, disgusting insult to the few remaining good souls helping me to keep My Grand Prix alive!

Thomas told me that "Yay For Free Language" is still funnier than these feeble two points indicate and that the title in combination with the lyrics alone is worth them. What's the point in writing an entry about everday countrylife like I experience in my little village? Ordinary.

Thomas gave "Harrow, Harrow" points even though it got parts which are almost impossible to sing to the original melody? Because ´he can make himself believe it's part of the whole "utterly charming and self-ironic concept". All I can say it is sick to flirt with one's failures. Where have all the professionals gone? Is there noone left but Johnny Logan and me?

And now "Llama". Thomas thinks this is a great piece of lyrical work with masterly use of language even though it leaves him a bit cold emotionally. It's the opposite here - I get truly emotional every time I have to read that perverted, unchristian ejection of a lamentable mind. It was written by a woman? This makes me so sick ...

Same feeling when Thomas told me that the remaining 6 doubtful aberrations of self-declared creativity would all have deserved 12 points!

"Save The Pigs" he tried to sell me as a "weird and wonderful and totally lovable tale of hope and sadness" As tragicomedy at its very best. What's lovable about abusing a lyrical contest for political statements? Some might say I did that, too, but I supported a good cause and not something as hysterical as vegetarian food. And now serve me a schweinebraten! Ahhh, delicious ...

"Hertz" is one of the very few entries in the final I can accept. Believe me, I would have reacted exactly the same way. Whether it is "devastatingly funny and remains so with each listen" is to be discussed, though. And whether that "little movie in your head it creates is priceless", too. I don't find situations like that particularly funny.

I don't want to comment on "A Song On Speed". This is a legal issue and my lawyers told me to hold back. I can't believe that Thomas, the man I choose to spread my message, thinks "it was obviously fishing for his points and that it works some hair's breadths better than "My Grand Prix", especially due to some very creative analogies which get better with each listen. Nicole and drugs and kangaroos with Golden Teeth - a combination he's unable to resist!" Well, see you both in court, buggers.

Personally, I don't think it is appropriate to sing about mental illness in a respected contest. Ami Aspelund did once and see what happened to her! Thomas calls this "another subdued, ingenious masterpiece which works wonders if imagined to be sung like the original. So simple, and at the same time so sophisticated! Potential winner, that's for sure." Oh, sure ... ROFL. Sorry ...

As for the rest, I can't believe that this guy Thomas can be taken in by any cheap trick.

"My Tasty Moussaka" - this is nothing but a recipe that won't even work! My family refused to touch it! And Thomas still moans, "believe me, it was a tough decision to rob this marvellous and lovingly executed gem. It is faultless and he keeps his greasy, greedy fingers crossed that it will go all the way with a little help from all those who cared to actually listen and think twice." Well, I even prepared it on a Sunday when I had run out of ideas, and I'm not too keen on that experience.

So Thomas couldn't help it ... he had to "snap at the fish-hook which might even be aimed at him". And the fact that he thinks it is such a brave attempt and took into account that there is not a chance to win just to take down this rayon de soleil of an idea means that his 12 points go to No. 24 "La vache qui rit, c'est moi". Silly bonehead! He gave 12 to the advertising break! And even call it "simply brilliant from the very first to the very last "Mooooooooo", and most certainly written by Frank!

These two really deserve each other ...

    - In the shadows of that "Speed" song, I would not even have noticed! And that goof Thomas showered it with points ... - Nicole & The White Shoes - 2006-08-08 8:41:41pm

  - Okay, okay, you can bring La Vache too! [R] - Frank - 2006-08-08 8:52:05pm
    - I was told you were sent a picture of mine today. - Nicole & The White Shoes - 2006-08-08 8:53:58pm
      - lol. How's your best friend Vicky doing btw? [R] - Geert - 2006-08-08 8:55:14pm
        
        Messing with young guys like you in some trendy discotheques ... - Nicole & The White Shoes - 2006-08-08 8:56:21pm
        
        Young? I'm 21 you know :P [R] - Geert - 2006-08-08 8:57:28pm

Back from the clinic (not thát kind), thanks Dan, Elin and Thomicole for the points :)

It's getting close at the top behind pig-boy :)

Muaha. I know what's going to happen next! - Geert-but you told me no - 2006-08-08 8:49:25pm
- Me too - Jeremy is a paranoid pig - 2006-08-08 8:51:17pm
  We'll see Thomas
  
  :-)
- Me too :) - Harrow - 2006-08-08 8:56:10pm
  But Jeremy doesn't :)
  - "Hertz" will score massively, I can imagine ... well, as I said, one of the very few entries I can identify with. [R] - Nicole & The White Shoes - 2006-08-08 8:57:09pm
    - Together with la vache qui rit, non? [R] - Geert - 2006-08-08 8:58:07pm
      - You didn't get it either, huh? It was the advertising break ... and a rather tedious one, too. [R] - Nicole & The White Shoes - 2006-08-08 9:02:47pm
    - Ooooo...now that I'd like :-) [R] - Jeremy is a paranoid pig - 2006-08-08 8:58:57pm
    - Or not...LOL :-/ [R] - Jeremy is a paranoid pig - 2006-08-08 9:02:25pm

I see that my faves "llama" and "A song on Speed" are gaining more and more popularity :)
Posted by angelos on 2006-08-08 8:51:20pm

Hope to see "Rafael" a little bit higher aswell ;))

How miserable a taste! [R] - Nicole & The White Shoes - 2006-08-08 8:52:39pm

I prefer Aviad's other entry, but both are goodö. Would be a shame if they both miss out on the top 10 in the end [R] - Jonas - 2006-08-08 9:29:21pm

Geert's votes (yes Geert it is you this time!) :) - Harrow - 2006-08-08 9:00:08pm

Yay Nick, Jonas, Roger, Frank, YAIR !!!! :-))) [R] - Jeremy is a paranoid pig - 2006-08-08 9:02:04pm
- Hertz just missed out, sorry mate :( [R] - Geert - 2006-08-08 9:03:11pm
  - Oh well. You've been more than generous in the BFC's :-)))) [R] - Jeremy is a paranoid pig - 2006-08-08 9:04:15pm
    - This is a very adult story - he is still young, he can take things easy! As for me, so many things drive me nuts! - Nicole & The White Shoes - 2006-08-08 9:06:19pm
      And as Hertz points out, you have every right to react in a determined way!
      
      Fucking service desert!
      - Hahahaha!! Clever lass :-)) [R] - Jeremy is a paranoid pig - 2006-08-08 9:10:16pm
- And of course Nicole!! :-))) [R] - Jeremy is a paranoid pig - 2006-08-08 9:03:48pm

Who's that ugl.. Oh wait! :) [R] - Geert - 2006-08-08 9:02:21pm

ROFL ... Thomas says "thank you for being such a loyal supporter" and wants me to point out that he paid back this time. - Nicole & The White Shoes - 2006-08-08 9:05:13pm
That "Granny" song was not bad either, you certainly had a point there!

2nd case tonight that Thomas expected a song which received 12 points to be written by the voter!
- I know! I wish I had written it!!!! It has Geert written all over it, a very obvious 12 :) - Geert - 2006-08-08 9:06:44pm
  And I am very satisfied with the leader too, it ALMOST beat Total Plagiat, imagine!!!
  - That pig song seems to have a wide appeal ... I will talk to Ralph about it. - Nicole & The White Shoes - 2006-08-08 9:08:50pm
    Maybe he can take the theme to ESC next year, as long as I don't have to turn vegetarian, fine with me!
    
    Isn't he looking for a rockier act with spectacular costumes? <Dialing...>
    - You'd be perfect for the pig role, that's for sure! [R] - Geert - 2006-08-08 9:10:29pm
      - I decided long ago that the goat would be my role model, bleating little kid! [R] - Nicole & The White Shoes - 2006-08-08 9:12:47pm
- Oh, and as for the support... - Geert - 2006-08-08 9:07:56pm
  It's so deserved! Great entry, would be happy if that won too! I'd be happy for Thomas though, and not, erm, Nicole :))

Geert, I apologise for saying you looked like an aging German woman, you're wonderful! :-) - Nick D. - 2006-08-08 9:09:00pm
I'm the FYR Macedonia of ALC, and I'm so proud! :-D
- LOL! :)))) [R] - Geert - 2006-08-08 9:10:49pm
  - Now what's this? German bashing night? First Alexander, now Nick and you ... - Nicole & The White Shoes - 2006-08-08 9:21:23pm
    ... so World Cup 06 was in vain again.
    
    I should have told Beckenbauer. It's hopeless. And we will never win ESC again. We just got no friends! Well, maybe Johnny Logan, he is an exception.
- Both "aging" and "German" are compliments in my book, though ... [R] - Nicole & The White Shoes - 2006-08-08 9:11:07pm

Thanks, Rat, also on behalf of your former compatriote!:) [R] - Frank - 2006-08-08 9:12:11pm

Seven points and loved, seven points and hot, seven points and young, seven points and - Yair - 2006-08-08 9:14:35pm
thanks :))))

And well done Nick and Roger!

"It's too much, Maria!"
Posted by Jonas on 2006-08-08 9:27:27pm

Thanks for today's set of votes, everyone :) It's kinda surreal to be in the lead, I must say. (Though I'm third last too, of course!)

And it's also really nice that among those who seem to be my strongest contenders (so far, everything can happend) there's people who previously haven't been among those who usually do well in MB-contests...

I'd wouldn't mind losing to any entry that's currently among the top ones. :)

And to Lota... - Jonas - 2006-08-08 9:36:27pm
Here's a little virtual hug for you :) I hate days like that, but fortunatly days end at midnight and a fresh one is born :)
- thank you :)) [R] - Lota - 2006-08-09 3:23:18am

Jonas ... - Thomas pushing Nicole aside - 2006-08-08 9:39:16pm
... horrible news! One of the Tescos lead singers followed the link from the youtube page to Harrow's site and discovered your lyric (normally I pre-screen ALC lyrics for the rest of the Tescos).

She completely fell in love with "Pigs". I told her it was more of a ballad and not in her key, but hopeless.
- LOL! :-) - Jonas - 2006-08-08 9:46:19pm
  That song is in nobody's key, though
  - Doesn't stop me trying in the shower :) [R] - Harrow - 2006-08-08 10:04:48pm

Now, that was fun when someone posted comments to their own voting
Posted by Yair on 2006-08-08 9:28:40pm

So far only Nicole did it, and she's not even an MB regular!

Would be interesting to see more of those. I have mine ready :)

I'm already getting used to this MB, though ... you might be a somewhat perverted bunch, but I'm having myself a ball... - Nicole & The White Shoes - 2006-08-08 9:32:33pm
... so I do consider to become a regular in here, it seems a place ready for my ideas about Grand Prix, too.

I will too :-) [R] - Jonas - 2006-08-08 9:36:39pm

Christianne may accompany me too. It's still under discussion :-) [R] - Jeremy is a paranoid pig - 2006-08-08 9:42:04pm
- LOL - bring her on :)) [R] - Yair - 2006-08-08 9:52:37pm
- Jeremy, you were Christianne Ambi Pur commenting on BFC voting? - orionas - 2006-08-08 10:25:27pm
  How come this is the first time i hear/read/see this? And i call myself a regular here! Shame on me!
  - I didn't say that. I said she may accompany me :-))) [R] - Jeremy is a paranoid pig - 2006-08-08 10:34:40pm
    - As a date? [R] - orionas - 2006-08-08 10:36:15pm
      - If I'm lucky. But for now she's just a commentator [R] - Jeremy is a paranoid pig - 2006-08-08 10:45:32pm
        
        I wish you then all the best of luck you paranoid pig! - orionas - 2006-08-08 10:54:28pm
        I hope you will be saved and you won't be gyros souvlaki!
        
        LOL...I hope so too. Been a very slow day point-wise :-) [R] - Jeremy is a paranoid pig - 2006-08-08 11:01:29pm
        
        Oh...Don't worry.I'm sure Hertz will find it's way up at the top of the scoreboard - orionas - 2006-08-08 11:04:42pm
        When is Paul voting? On Sunday you'll get a lot of points for sure!
        
        He will get a part of my 58 points :-) [R] - [PL]TV HoD - 2006-08-08 11:05:50pm
        
        A part like 1/5 of points? Don't tell! Let him in agony!! [R] - orionas - 2006-08-08 11:07:19pm
        
        More like 1/58th :-)) [R] - [PL]TV HoD - 2006-08-08 11:07:51pm
        
        LOL! ***rejoices*** [R] - Jeremy is a paranoid pig - 2006-08-08 11:09:20pm
        
        Very generous of you! LOL! [R] - orionas - 2006-08-08 11:09:22pm

I'm the Helga of ALC [R] - Frank - 2006-08-08 10:23:15pm

Oooh exciting - tied in second position with Thomas!! I couldn't feel more honoured and I'm not sucking up!
Posted by [PL]TV HERTZoD on 2006-08-08 10:53:38pm

I'm already very happy with my result so far - like I said before, I didn't expect to reach the top 6 in my semi, so every point received here is just extra.

It'll be interesting to see what's still in the pipeline. But I'm sure it'll be fun anyway...

GO HERTZ!!!

Delighted at your success!! :-) [R] - Jeremy is a paranoid pig - 2006-08-08 11:08:42pm

Some very interesting things going on in the ALC voting...
Posted by Richard_CT on 2006-08-08 11:11:54pm

7 of the direct finalists are currently in the bottom 10; and four of the top 10 are from semi 1!

So ALC 2006 follows the concept of ESC 2006 and all that is left is for the host Yair to do a Vissi. [R] - orionas - 2006-08-08 11:14:09pm
- No.... please! [R] - Richard_CT - 2006-08-08 11:15:59pm
- *practicing drunk spider dance moves already* [R] - Yair - 2006-08-08 11:20:59pm

Interesting indeed...especially the Semi 1 statistic [R] - Jeremy is a paranoid pig - 2006-08-08 11:14:26pm

But which semi has more points overall? And where's Timoteus when you really need him? :) [R] - Yair - 2006-08-08 11:15:35pm
- I ain't going there, Yair... especially not when my pizza just arrived! [R] - Richard_CT - 2006-08-08 11:17:09pm
  - that's such a cruel thing to say in front of a poor student at 20 past 11 at night! :) [R] - Harrow - 2006-08-08 11:19:25pm
    - Then get your ass on a plane fast! We'll save you a slice! [R] - Richard_CT - 2006-08-08 11:23:16pm
      - pizza should be delivered! :) [R] - Harrow - 2006-08-08 11:25:03pm
        
        In this case Yair will be delivered to Richard's house! [R] - orionas - 2006-08-08 11:25:56pm
        
        I knew I shouldn't have uploaded that acne photo on groupster :( [R] - Yair - 2006-08-08 11:35:00pm
      - You should be out there waving a Lamont or Lieberman sign, mister! :-) [R] - Jeremy is a paranoid pig - 2006-08-08 11:25:35pm
        
        Bah! Whoever wins, it menas we're sending another millionaire to the Senate! [R] - Richard_CT - 2006-08-08 11:27:07pm
        
        Actually Lieberman isn't a millionaire. He's been a civil servant most of his adult life [R] - Jeremy is a paranoid pig - 2006-08-08 11:31:41pm
        
        Net worth 3.5M? [R] - Richard_CT - 2006-08-08 11:47:20pm
        
        go anti-Lieberman dude!! I can't stand that old fart. [R] - euroUSA - 2006-08-09 12:15:15am
        
        I don't like Lieberman or Lamont... - Richard_CT - 2006-08-09 2:51:06am
        ... but if Lieberman loses the primary and then chooses to run as an Independent, I'll be really pissed off!
    - Is it? I just had a pizza as well :) [R] - Frank - 2006-08-08 11:23:53pm
      - "Peppers, garlic, mushrooms, yo! Sausage and oregano!" - Richard_CT - 2006-08-08 11:26:29pm
        But you have to pronounce oregano the American way, with the stress on the.... aw, WGAF anyway? I'm hungry!

And with only 11 sets of votes known, 10 different songs got a 12. [R] - Frank - 2006-08-08 11:22:14pm
- But still a solid lead in the board! WTG Jonas!! [R] - orionas - 2006-08-08 11:22:56pm
  - Yes, absolutely, and the only one to get two douzes. [R] - Frank - 2006-08-08 11:25:39pm
    - At least till now! Who knows what can happen tomorrow etc etc! [R] - orionas - 2006-08-08 11:27:58pm
      - Me! :) [R] - Harrow - 2006-08-08 11:29:33pm
      - Of course till now. We can't look in the future, can we? :) [R] - Frank - 2006-08-08 11:30:01pm
        
        As Harrow said...Harrow knows!! [R] - orionas - 2006-08-08 11:31:14pm
        
        He's not part of we, he's who. :) [R] - Frank - 2006-08-08 11:32:58pm
        
        He is The other, ah? I see... :-) [R] - orionas - 2006-08-08 11:34:55pm
        
        Well I do have Harrow's server access code, that's close enough no? :) [R] - Yair - 2006-08-08 11:31:17pm
        
        nope :) [R] - Harrow - 2006-08-08 11:31:58pm
