Team Berserkboi 11s that have fallen - @Maki @Ezz @Penguin @Sprockrooster @dancingwithmyself
Team Filippa 11s that have fallen - @Ana Raquel @jtm @If You Go

- Now it's gonna get tough: we will lose 6 more 11s on the road to the top 10!
- Filippa has lost 23 songs and Berserkboi has lost 22 songs, still quite even but now I am the one with the most losses thus far.
- Filippa now has 10, Berserkboi has 8 picks left and we have still our 2 wildcards here!
- We have 3 Italian, 5 French, 4 German, 2 Spanish and 6 "international" acts left.
- Still two songs with an average below 8

Let us know which songs should make it into the top 10 and which songs have overstayed their welcome?

If it makes you feel any better, PP was 11th.
And if I am anything it's not Homophobic, it's Francophobic! Still bitter about my trip to Paris 10 years ago where the first people I met in France were the staff in the Gare d'Austerlitz Metro station who laughed at me as I tried to ask for assistance to purchase a tourist ticket.

French people are super rude in my experience. I travelled to Paris with an Australian girlfriend about 8 years ago and anyone we encountered was incredibly short whether we addressed them in French (me) or English (her). I figure they don't drive in the concept of Customer Service (at training) the way we are used to in Australia ddd When my girl asked for a T-Shirt in a large, the Salesperson just told her "Yeah, yeah - keep looking!" Dddd

I also witnessed them being rude to each other so I figure this is just how they are ddd

That's really something!

I had quite the opposite experience: When a friend and I decided to visit Paris, we hopped into the night train - that was all the planning we did. We arrived very early at the station and tired as we were we chose the next hotel that looked nice. I tried to tell the receptionist in my best school French what we were looking for. He asked us in English (yeah) about the price we could afford. I answered in English and then he told me in perfect German (yeah) that this hotel was far too expensive for us but he knows one that we could like. He booked a room for us and told us where to go. I guess I looked quite desperate because suddenly he told us to sit down and wait a few minutes. He then drove us to the hotel.

And that was not the only good experience in Paris ... I loved it. And the friend I traveled with was a guy, not a girl ...

Well, that was a long time ago. In 1919 after World War I, in Austria, after the last Habsburg king was dethroned, nobility and noble privileges were abolished. Partly because all people should be equal in the new democracy, partly I guess out of fear that they could make it back. It's a bit confusing, because abroad these titles were still retained. For example the then heir to throne was called Karl Habsburg-Lothringen in Austria, but Karl of Habsburg or Archduke Karl of Austria abroad ...
