How do they have an unfair advantage, you didn't explain  I will love to explain.
First, they have a much bigger music industry and the genres popular in those countries are popular with NVSC members. Countries such as Bulgaria, Montenegro, Serbia and Croatia have a music genre that fails in song contests. The only time they do well is when they send pop songs and they may still fail Bulgaria NVSC 8.
Second, Denmark, Norway and Sweden's users have music charts which give their songs more exposure than other countries.
Finally, they are the most popular countries and the users have the best movie making programs. I think that they should have to switch countries every five editions but I know it won't happen because they are the NBU council. There's not really anything that can be done about the first point  Florian does  Robbie does, so it's not just the nordics; also other countries who've done well such as France don't. There's also nothing stopping any other user from making a chart  I'm not sure that has a big effect personally, and also Dennis is good with that stuff, isn't the most succesful user and there are other examples that go against that patter. The idea of switching countries could work I guess, though I'd say every 5 is too often and there is the thing that people get attached to their countries here  Maybe there should be an 'everyone else' vote or something in the council, though not sure how that would work |

I'll be back for NVSC 12 and hopefully some things change. I feel that there are some NVSC members who have an elitist attitude and think they are superior to everyone. But, best of luck in NVSC 10 and 11 for everyone except the Nordics, I hope they flop |

Well so long as Ireland doesn't again I'm happy  |

If I would be doing pretty well in this contest just because I'm using the huge music industry of my participating country I wouldn't give it away just because other users can't appreciate their lose.  |

Not really "Bang that Drum" or "Butterfly" were in my charts for like 5 weeks while other songs were a lot more weeks 3. Really? .. |

Why blaming Nordic countries for always sending good songs?  |

Maybe there should be an 'everyone else' vote or something in the council, though not sure how that would work
