We are almost on the left side of the board!

 

[Iker]

My country gives 12 to too

 

[mauve]

We might get more than 100 points

Police - investigate!

 

[Gwendal]

Seven points from Cyprus to Greece.
Lol.

 

[Brendan]

Is the Swiss lead too high to overtaken - it will surely get enough televotes to hold a 150 point lead over Croatia, 130 points over France and 280+ points over Israel?

 

[Verjamem]

Cyprus more points to Israel than Greece, what a shame.

 

[AliceEsc]

Cyprus giving 7 to us, 8 to Israel and 12 to Croatia is a rollercoaster of emotions.

 

[GermanBango]

Come on, one more point

 

[0scar]

yeah got this in the bag I think. Good for them
good for us that we don't have to worry about participating in such an expensive country as well

 

[jatojo]

Maybe Switzerland's song was created by AI via the prompt: Write a song that all juries are going to love?

 

[Etanna]

it's so sweet to see Nemo interacting with the artists from the countries that awarded him 12 points

 

[Gordon_Shumway]

This is actually kind of...boring. Sorry to say that.

 

[Biste]

Come on, one more point

You'll get 1 from the Tele. Just to end on 100 in total

 

[NeoTen]

Switzerland now 10-15% above the projected odds projection. Projected to win now.
Israel 10% outside the margin projected to win. If it happens now, then this forum is really a thought bubble.
Bern, let's get that tax money ready, I guess.

 

[Zorjan]

It seems like the juries will ruin my Eurovision-party again

 

[MopManMoss]

My favourite song of the year, don't care if this is boring and next yesr wont be even vaguely affordable I care that Israel is out of it

 

[Gordon_Shumway]

Thank god all that Israel hysteria is over.

 

[AliceEsc]

Croatia top 3 with the juries is a great result.

 

[Jupiter]

While Switzerland is a worthy winner and I'm super happy for Nemo, who deserves it for sure, it's getting very anticlimatic, just like last year. I don't like feeling like the public vote can barely change anything anymore.

(And if, this year, only for the worst)

 

[GermanBango]

Well boys, girls and in between we are not gonna finish last this year
