EuroVoice 43 - Results show

MS Kaap Westland, Zeevorde (Ineland)
Dear Europe, welcome to Zeevorde for the 43rd edition of the EuroVoice Song Contest! I am Andrea and I will be your host for tonight's show, broadcasting live from former cargo ship MS Kaap Westland. IRT-RTI has been working hard in the past few months alongside Zeevorde municipality in order to adapt this former oceanfaring vessel and transform it into an awesome stage for our music show.
Through the next hours we will be listening, seeing and, especially, enjoying the 12 entries in this year's edition. Without further ado, let us navigate music together from our floating stage and find out what is Europe's favourite song.
(OOC: I will be slowly releasing voting results along the coming weeks. My apologies for not being able to deliver the full show in a quicker fashion.)

The twelve entries play, one after the other, in the wonderful stage set up inside the belly of the former cargo vessel. Thanks to a detailed work by technicians during the months prior, the insides have been insulated effectively so that the reverberation of the iron clad is almost inaudible.
Andrea Mandrais: After listening to these wonderful songs, it is time to vote. Europe, let's decide!
After half an hour of replays of the entries and a light comedy segment for the in-person audience at MS Kaap Westland, it is time to know what spectators have decided.
AM: You, our dear watchers, have already spoken. Now it is time for us to unwrap your voice for everyone to see. Therefore, let's begin with the vote counting. It is time to connect with our first vote deliverer. Dua Lipa, live from the United Kingdom!
DL: Hello Europe! Our viewers have voted and these are the results. On third position, with 8 points, comes... our host INELAND! Coming in second, with 10 points comes... SPAIN! And in the first place, our 12 points are awarded to... ELTHIZE!
AM: Thank you so much dear Dua, and see you soon! With this first round of votes Elthize takes the leading spot with 12 points, followed up by Spain with 10 points, Ineland with 8, and Oregon with 7 points. Now let's go to our second round of voting. Good evening Reitzmag!
WS GM: Good evening Andrea, good evening Zeevorde, good evening Europe! We're so happy to see you all from our wonderful studios in Reitzmag! Let's get this going. Without further ado, here come the points from our country. Our third place eight points have been awarded to... ICHOLASEN! Our second place, with ten points, goes to... VAYINAOD!

Ineland and Spain come in a tie for the third place with 13 points each. Second place comes Oregon, with 14 points. And speeding up to the top spot comes Yosai, with 16 points.
And off we go to our third round of scores of the night. Live from Saint Dominico we're connecting with Madame Marco for Inquista's scores. Good evening my dear!
MM: Hello Andrea, and hello Zeevorde and Europe! Tonight we've seen amazing shows and heard amazing music, but as with everything it's time to choose. And of course Inquistans couldn't remain silent about it. Here comes our scores!
On third place, our eight points go to... OREGON! Coming in second, our ten points go to... CZECH SLAVIA! And finally, on first place our twelve points go to... ICHOLASEN! Coming back to you Andrea, good night Europe!
AM: Thank you so much Madame Marco. After our first three rounds of voting I think we can agree to say "What a night!". With the latest points, the tally changes dramatically again. After receiving null points from Inquista, Yosai falls from first to the sixth place with 16 points, while Ineland stays in the fight for the third place but this time with Elthize with 19 points each, with Spain falling to the fifth with 18 points. Oregon stays up high with 22 points, tied for the first position with Icholasen that finds itself propelled to the fight for the top spot with 22 points as well.

AM: Thank you so much, Sharon! So far, the tally stands as follows. In fifth place, with 29 points we have ELTHIZE! Just one point away, with 30 points, we have CZECH SLAVIA on the fourth position which is just 2 points below our third competitor ICHOLASEN! And here's where things get exciting, because our top three entries are all placed within a 3-point range. Second, with 33 points, is OREGON! And finally, currently on top with 34 points, INQUISTA!
Things are definitely getting exciting here. And to make them even more exciting we proceed to our next round of voting results, live from... VAYINAOD! Go ahead Jack, you're live!
JB: Thaaaank you Andrea, and gooooood evening everyoooooone! Scoobydeeboop!
Okay, let's go... Third with our roundy eight points comes ICHOLASEN. Second, with 10 points, comes Awesomregon, awesome OREGON! And first, with 12 points, YOSAI! Hell yeah!
AM: Thank you so much Jack for your uplifting and energetic speech. And now let's go onto our seventh round of votes of the evening by... OOOREGON! Welcome Rachel!
RE: Good evening Andrea and our millions of watchers tonight! You asked Oregon to deliver, and it is time for Oregon to deliver. Third, with 8 points... INQUISTA! Second place, with 10 points... CZECH SLAVIA! And finally, on the first place with 12 points... ELTHIZE!
AM: Thank you Oregon and thank you Rachel! Lots of changes, massive ones, in our tally. Fifth place is now occupied by our latest voter, OREGON, with 43 points. Three points ahead, with 46, come ICHOLASEN and ELTHIZE tied for the third place. Second place, just with one more point, 47 points, comes CZECH SLAVIA. And top position, with 48 points, comes INQUISTA. I am not going to lie, having our top 5 contenders within a range of just 6 points is astounding with just 5 more countries left to vote. Let's see how this ends up!

AM: As we're approaching the final part of the show, the thing is getting all the more exciting! Having said that, it is time to proceed with our next round of voting. YOSAI, are you on the line?
TK: Hello Andrea and hello Europe!
AM: Welcome Takeshi! What have Yosainians decided to vote?
TK: Our fellow watchers, in their infinite wisdom, have decided to distribute their votes the following way. On the third spot, with 8 points, comes THE UNITED KINGDOM! Second, with 10 points, come THE UNITED DUCHIES! And lastly, our 12 points go to... REITZMAG!
AM: Thank you Takeshi and good evening to you and all of Yosai! After this 8th round of voting we're getting even closer to the end of the show, and so it seems that the winner will be among the current top 5! Now let's proceed to our next round of votes. Nieves? Is Spain there and ready!?
NA: Good evening Andrea! Here we are, present and ready to vote! On the third position, with 8 points, comes THE UNITED KINGDOM! Second place, with 10 points, comes OREGON! And first, with the 12 points spot comes REITZMAG! Thank you Andrea and thank you EU!
AM: Thank you Nieves and Spain! Well, it seems this is getting exciting as Reitzmag received 12 points twice in a row. May we be in front of a new runner-up for the win? Let's find out with more votes. Let me invoke you... Lenny, my friend! Where are the Duchies!?
LH: Here we are, baby! Good evening my darling, Andrea. Here comes the moment you've all been waiting for, it's time for the United Duchies to award some points! Our 8 points have gone to YOSAI! Our 10 points have gone to OREGON! And our 12 points have gone to INQUISTA!
AM: Thanks Lenny! And wow, the landscape changes drastically as Inquista climbs from the 5th to the 1st spot, exchanging positions with Czech Slavia who drop from the 1st to the 5th. Oregon climbs from 4th to 2nd, while Elthize goes down from 2nd to 3rd as Icholasen also drops one place from 3rd to 4th. In the meantime, Reitzmag clings to the 6th position. Let's see how this continues with the scores of our next voting country and penultimate voting round. But beware, here comes the wolf! Wolf Alice giving the score results for Elthize!
WA: Auuuuuu and beware! Good evening Andrea and good evening Europeans! Elthizeans haven't had it easy, but they've come up with some scoring and here's the results. Third place, with 8 points, come THE UNITED DUCHIES! Second place, with 10 points, comes INQUISTA! And finally, with 12 points comes CZECH SLAVIA!
AM: Thank you Wolf Alice, and thank you Elthize! Well, it seems like the panorama, with just one country left to vote, is starting to get clearer. Sadly, Czech Slavia has no options given that the only country left to vote is them and they can't vote for themselves. However, and while Inquista is 5 points ahead of the next possible winner, anything could happen as, mathematically, 4 entries have options: Inquista, Oregon, Icholasen and Elthize. Thus, it seems that the final round of voting will be an extremely intense moment.
Let's go for it. Antonin and Czech Slavia, I call upon you to show up!
AS: Good evening Andrea! Indeed, sadly as it is, we're mathematically left out of the competition. However, we have the honour to be kingmakers in this edition. There's always a positive side to every story! So, without any further ado, let's give Europe what it wants: A WINNER!
Third place, with 8 points... INELAND!
AM: Which places Ineland on a final score of 58 points.
AS: Second place, with 10 points... OREGON!
AM: Which places Oregon on a final score of 78 points.
AS: And first place, with 12 points... ICHOLASEN!
AM: Which places Icholasen on a final score of 77 points. So far, Oregon would be first and Icholasen second, but things could still change at the very last moment.
AS: And now, let's go with the rest of the score, from the bottom. With one point... VAYINAOD!
With two points... SPAIN!
With three points... THE UNITED KINGDOM!
With four points... THE UNITED DUCHIES!
With five points... ELTHIZE!
With six points... RITZMAG!
And finally, with seven points... INQUISTA!
AM: And with those seven points, INQUISTA clings to the top position with 80 points, just two ahead of Oregon!
AM: INQUISTA IS THE WINNER OF THE 43RD EDITION OF EUROVOICE! Thank you Antonin and Czech Slavia, and THANK YOU EVERYONE! See you soon in Inquista for EuroVoice 44!
