Now... onto the Results!

As a reminder, this contest all results are given in the order that the countries were given in at the start, which means France is first to give their results! It also means countries that failed to vote will have their points deducted at that point in time.

St. Vincent with an early lead, but with so many still to go it's impossible to say what will happen as Germanyland come forward with their results.

St. Vincent remain in the lead, while Bearville, Disneyland and Germanyland are still sitting on zero points. But the end is a long way off, so let's see what Silent Hill's votes change to the standings!

St. Vincent remain in the lead, while Germanyland are now the only country still on zero points. Silent Hill themselves drop to seventh place as well, but everything can change as the current leaders, St. Vincent, are next up to give their results!

St. Vincent keep the lead, but only on tie breakers as Wasteland joins them in first. Germanyland still sits on zero points, but France is only just above them on four points. Also interesting to note is that the top 6 countries only have 4 points between them, and all are tied with another country. In fact, including Cadenza and Tryptamine, over half the countries are tied with one other at this stage. Panem now give their votes!

Parts Unknown take the lead over St. Vincent, but just barely, it's still very close and anyone could still win, especially as thus far no country has been given the top position twice. Let's see if that changes as Disneyland give their results!

Keeping the run of no country being given the top points twice, Disneyland give theirs to Bearville, which doesn't change much for them, however at the top end, St. Vincent jump above Parts Unknown, but again only hold a lead of a single point above second place. It's far to close to call as Wasteland bring us to the half way point with their votes!

Tryptamine become the first country to get twelve points twice, and yet still only make it to third place with it. Parts Unknown hop back into first, but once again St. Vincent are only a single point behind them in this neck and neck race for first. With seven countries left to vote, Parts Unknown included, it is still literally anyone's to win. Let's see if anything changes as The Doll House give their results!

St Vincent take the lead back from Parts Unknown, but solely on tiebreakers this time, as Parts Unknown shockingly receive zero points from The Doll House, allowing the middle of the pack to close the gap on the leaders. Let's see what Pastichia's results do to things.

Once again Parts Unknown receive zero points, but St. Vincent only receive three, so while they retake the lead, everyone below them closes up even further, so much can change as we move on to Jamaica's votes!

Unfortunately Jamaica was unable to submit their results in time, and so is forced to take a penalty of 20 points, taking them down to just 9 points, with nothing else changing, let's see what Tryptamine do to the standings!

Ten points to Parts Unknown, with none to St. Vincent push them into the lead, while those sitting just behind them get nothing, allowing Parts Unknown to start pulling away from the pack, while Jamaica and Germanyland become the first countries to be unable to win this contest. Bearville now step forward with their results!

Jamaica get twelve points from Bearville, but stay in second to last place, while Parts Unknown stretch their lead even further over St. Vincent, who retains second place. Only the top six have a chance of winning at this point, and remember, Parts Unknown are still to give their points! Cadenza step up to give theirs!

And a strong twelve points to Parts Unknown put them solidly in the lead, and unable to be beaten, meaning the fight is now on for second place, and only four countries have a chance to take that spot, Panem, St. Vincent, Tryptamine and Pastichia, and it's the leaders, Parts Unknown, who will give that all important vote for them, let's see what happens...

And twelve points go to St. Vincent, giving them a solid second place, while Panem come in third! A very well done to Parts Unknown for finishing first. Also, Panem finished third despite not getting a single 12 point during the contest, yet beat three countries that received two 12 points (Tryptamine, Wasteland, and Jamaica). Jamaica, if they hadn't lost 20 points could have been 4th, depending on who they gave their points to, meaning Panem would have still finished above them.

Finally, below I have an image showing the full placing with artist and song, please let me know if this adds anything for you (and if it adds literally nothing for you), so I know if it's worth the extra work creating the image in the future.
