(Went over to using the German names; easier for me, and the majority seems to use them, so it's no problem, I guess)

[Cranberry]

IMO, BaWü's landscape is basically just a mixture between Rheinland-Pfalz and Bayern... You get better mountains than the Schwarzwald, the Mosel and Main valleys are nicer than the Baden-wine areas, Neuschwanstein beats Hohenzollern, and Swabia isn't that extremely beautiful, not much different from Franconia... Plus, I really dislike the Stuttgart-type of people (then again, Hessen should be out already, too; but it's more important to get Niedersachsen and the state with Dortmund out first), and Swabian dialect is just as bad as Saxon or Plattdeutsch

Southern Germany is obviously the better part, you're right with that, though.

Anyway:

Eliminations:

6 Niedersachsen
4 Nordrhein-Westfalen
3 Thüringen
2 Berlin

Niedersachsen and Nordrhein-Westfalen are eliminated (good, good)

Round 6:

Vote to eliminate 2 states by voting 2-1 (Bavaria still safe for this round; next time we'll already have our semifinal!)

2 Hessen
1 Brandenburg

[Cranberry]

6 Berlin
5 Hessen
3 Thüringen
1 Brandenburg

Berlin and Hessen are eliminated

Round 7:

Vote to eliminate two of the following states:

Bayern
Brandenburg
Rheinland-Pfalz
Thüringen

x Brandenburg
x Thüringen

Funnily, we have two Western and two Eastern states left.

[Cranberry]

0 Bayern
5 Brandenburg
2 Rheinland-Pfalz
3 Thüringen

Brandenburg and Thüringen are eliminated.

That leaves Rheinland-Pfalz and Bayern for our grand finale.
