Congrats, Paco! And WSA!

Both of you produced amazing songs (along with the other contestants) and planted great music in this world for people to...ponder :)

ColourBlind was an amazing round. They all were. Thanks, Niveous, for driving such an inspired competition.

That's just frustrating, because the post didn't say how, and Niveous didn't respond to my question until four hours before the voting deadline... while I was at work. I only had time to listen to the songs twice each anyway; hadn't even made up my mind yet. I swear there was more time in previous years.

Oh well. I'm going to assume that the vote wasn't so close that my one vote would have mattered.

Congrats, Paco!

Fuckin' A. Good work Paco. Congratumalations.

I am actually gutted, but on the bright side we have all these new songs from Frankie, Ross, Luke, et al.

Thank you Niveous and all the judges!

Congratulations Mr. Stinky! I can't wait to tell my son Jack, he'll be so happy for you (and I am too). I enjoy your songs and it couldn't have happened to a nicer guy (at least not among these shitheads).

And another tradition is maintained - 6 Nur Eins and I have still never voted in a final round. Even while being a judge.

Wow! Did you guys count the votes right? I am stunned. I dare not say the best man, or song or whatever won, but I am honored to have survived the wonderous ordeal and somehow come out on top. I believe in short acceptance speeches, so don't worry. I tip my cap the magnificent WSA, you would've gotten my vote had it applied here. Thanks to all of the judges and constestants, everyone had something to offer. Special thanks to Niveous for being the titanium backbone that he is: big man-hug, man! Gloating is not my style, and if we were all in a bar together, I'd buy the first round. Probably all I could afford, but there ya go. Community. Love, kisses and one last time for this year....NUR EIN!!!!!!

Note: I wil pose for a cheesy photo tomorrow and send it for posting, if appropriate. Also: I can't see the video announcement for some reason. :(

Thanks for the seeds, Chrispy. I think. I admit that I'd rather compete than judge, but will certainly be glad to take on that role. Actually, I probably have more confidence in my judging.
