Great figures!
I would also add that Malta and Hungary have been waiting for a victory for the longest time (29 editions until now )

True! However, you've had some nice results as well! Malta have only had 2 TOP 10 placings which is rather disappointing...

This is interesting! I love it! Especially to be mentioned there directly too!
I didn't know that there are that many countries/players which haven't missed an edition so far.

Some things:
I'd add also Germany's 4x but no win.
Wasn't Italy's win also in it's debut edition?
What was/is the Oceanian and all those American countries?

[fabbi]

btw. mimisthesc how long did this take?

If I was here in #1 i'd stay forever But sadly you only found me last year.. and I won't be leaving, believe me  

I've been waiting 10 editions now for a win, but that'll drag onto 40 editions But what can I say. Countries such as Hungary deserve a win soon, as they waited so long for it

It took me a lot of time!

I actually created a database in Microsoft Access where I added all the entries we've had till now and I should admit that it was a really tiring job...I needed around a whole week to add all entries and now I am using this database to find out some interesting stuff easily!
