Rhys Benjamin We have a second declaration and the board has been updated.

Rhys Benjamin We now have five votes in.

Rhys Benjamin

Rhys Benjamin Our sixth declaration is in - check out the scoreboard!

Rhys Benjamin

Rhys Benjamin Have redone the scoreboard, so you can see a bit clearer what you got from whom.

Fiona T

Fiona T Less pretty, but much clearer - thank you. But how come the tied scores? I thought the tiebreak was whoever played the game first?

Rhys Benjamin

Rhys Benjamin Horizontal is country receiving, vertical is country giving. I have checked and there are no ties unbroken?

Fiona T

Fiona T yep all good!

Elwin Carlos

Elwin Carlos At the risk of losing a point here, looks like both James and I received 5 points from Spike ... ?

Dan Byrom

Dan Byrom Hi all. I realise I've still got a fair few outstanding games. If you're yet to play me, I'll do my best to be online throughout the day on the 23rd and 24th. Today I'm a little busy but if you mail me suggesting a time I'll let you know if I can make it.

Rhys Benjamin

Rhys Benjamin Cheers Elwin - now fixed, the auto tie detector failed!

More declarations in now. 12/20 completed.

Stu Harkness Almost there now!

Rhys Benjamin

Rhys Benjamin Both games are being planned, so with that in mind I will allow an extension to play them - if they aren’t played soon, however, then that’ll be that.

Rhys Benjamin

Rhys Benjamin With 134 points, we have our winner. The winner is...

RONAN M HIGGINSON (Israel)!

We're off to Tel Aviv in 2022. Or possibly Jerusalem. I have no bias in either direction.

Spike Nard

Spike Nard Cheers Rhys- Was good fun :)

Matthew Tassier

Matthew Tassier Thanks for the tournament Rhys. I enjoyed the innovative format even if it doesn't suit my strengths. Congrats, Israel!

Tourney round: Eurovision Song Contest 2021: Grand Final

<< Semi Final 2

Notes from the organizer: Congratulations to our finalists! You've done brilliantly for making it this far, and now here comes the final.

Not many rule changes from the semi final, but the important things to note:

- games against your fellow qualifiers in your semi are carried forward, so you won't play anyone twice.
- the exception to this is where the game was not played initially. If there are any such games outstanding, you do have an opportunity to play them here.
- semi final results will not be revealed in full until after the final.
- there will be a running scoreboard for the final, but it will only be updated after each set of completed games (i.e. after each person's full set of games are done).

If you were in Semi Final Two, I had forgotten to put draws ON. Don't worry, I did correct this in the results, but I haven't made that mistake this time around.

Three weeks for 10 opponents. Same penalties as before apply. **24 JUN 2021**, when we will find out the winner of the Eurovision Song Contest!

May the best song win!

Ran from: 4 – 24 June 2021. Format: 9 Rounder. Matches: One-off. Level scores: Drawn. Approved.

Organizers: Rhys Benjamin.
