No /...

By the looks of it, it'll be a contest with 39-41 entries which is pretty good. It all depends on /.

We've never had a contest with, either 40, or 41 participants, so it'll be cool to finally have it.

I'm really sad for Hungary

Oikotimes have been wrong before though, I still cross my fingers. I loved "Forogj Vilag" and I would have loved Hungary 2009 aswell if Katya Tompos didn't withdraw her entry.

I had a feeling they would come back with something good.

Oh well.

Seems like we will have almost the same amount of entries as last year, probably 40-41.

Oh no I want Hungary back. If Montenegro and Hungary come back, all of our neighbours will participate next year in Dusseldorf
Even Italy, our oversea neighbour is back
Seriously, I love Hungarian music, so I hope Oikotimes is wrong.

+Moldova.
41 countries
Some people claim that there is still a hope for Hungary & San Marino,but i dont think so.

 

[A-lister]

Just wishful thinking? Please let it be true! http://escdaily.com/articles/4821

Apparently Slovakia is on the preliminary list as well despite announcing that they will withdraw.

 

[94ayd]

They'd better be! I feel like everyone across Europe has applied... By the way, San Marino has also done a Hungary/Montenegro.

I was actually expecting it, now that Italy's taking part.

 

[broomhelga]

I really hope we get Hungary at least and San Marino will surely enter if only to make sure Italy gets at least 12

The official list should come out sometime after Monday.

 

[Matt]

I thought the deadline is Dec 25th? I'd think we would have to wait until the following week......

 

[evilperson]

Oh really, I've read that the deadline is this Monday?

 

[Matt]

I believe countries still have the ability to withdraw without facing a penalty. Maybe that's the difference!

 

[Sim]

Oh really, I've read that the deadline is this Monday?

Well I've read also somewhere the deadline was 20th December.

 

[AlekS]

Well I've read also somewhere the deadline was 20th December.

No news about confirmations from Hungary, Montenegro and even potentially a Slovakian re-consideration?

 

[AlekS]

Not yet.

I want Hungary back!
