I can't believe this is happening. I won with my tiny Polen
After what it's like... 6 years of playing this game, I thought that achieving the top spot is beyond my reach. At times I had entries which I thought would do extremely well and then they wouldn't even qualify, on other occasions, I experienced pleasant surprises that were quite shocking to my eyes. I don't know what to say, this is my first medal (and gold!
) and is of course a very emotional moment for me. When I was catching up with the results I was on my way to work, and it was a spectacular journey!
As soon as I realized I've won it was quite certain to me that I will have to pass on the hosting opportunity due to the busy schedule at the moment. However, my forum friends immediately jumped in offering their help to me, so I'm happy to announce that we will be visiting Poland for the second time since Worldvision 36 when Piotr Rogucki and Within Temptation secured their top spot. I always thought of how my hosting would look like if I ever won and do have some clear ideas, but unfortunately due to aforementioned schedule I won't be able to make them happen, which really saddens me as I think they are amazing, but also extremely time consuming. Having said that, I will try my best to make your stay in Polen an unforgettable experience and I hope I wont fail (at least not a lot) somewhere along the way.
And lastly and most importantly I want to send my biggest thanks to all my supporters this edition without which this special moment wouldn't have happened. As the song has been showcased previously in one of my NFs in which it scored second, I knew I will have to send it at some point. I certainly wasn't expecting to win with this one, so you made for me a very big and early Christmas present. It's also when we are slowly approaching my 100th participation in the contest
Again, thanks to everyone for their points and warm words which make this win even more special. Also huge congrats to our hosting team. Mike, your banners were killing it as always
I think that's it from me today. I'll be seeing you all in Polen 149 (I STILL CANT BELIEVE THIS IS HAPPENING AAAAAAAAAAAAAAA)
