  1. won the contest last year. No official confirmation yet but I think @Cinnamon Bun originally showed interest in hosting so we’ll have to wait their final decision. There is no immediate need to confirm right now though
  2. Here are some of the other songs that were part of the Irish national selection final shortlist. I was so close to choosing either of the "Heaven" songs by Cian Ducrot or the one by Niall Horan but in the end went for Picture This. Picture This - Leftover Love Cian Ducrot - Heaven CMAT - Stay For Something Good Niall Horan - The Show Gavin James - White Noise Cian Ducrot ft. Matteo Romano - Part Of Me Jazzy - Giving Me Niall Horan - Heaven CMAT - California @Olympian1010 this would have been a good entry for the TISC Open last year in California.... "I'm heading to California, don't say I didn't warn you )
  3. We have had a couple of finals on a Sunday already as chosen by the hosts and even one across 2 days, Saturday and Sunday. Whatever suits the host is all that matters and same goes for how they present it and organise it. I have no input whatsoever but am there to help if they want a hand.
  4. Apologies to @Henry_Leon for not being there yesterday for the show. I was traveling home from my vacation and was only able to get caught up now. What an amazing show it was. Huge congratulations to our hosts and deserving champions on their 3rd TISC victory!! @Henry_Leon@SteveParker@Gianlu33@Pablita Well done to our other medalists @Wanderer and @Belle for a great result Finally I want to say a huge thank you to everyone who voted for my entry at this contest. Really glad you enjoyed it @catgamer@NikolaB@Cobi@Vic Liu@justony@Hipooo@maestro@Makedonas@Ruslan@Belle@Bohemia@Benolympique@vinipereira@Cinnamon Bun Thanks so much to @dcro and @Glen for awarding your silver medal to the Irish song and to @Wumo and the Italian jury @Henry_Leon@SteveParker@Gianlu33@Pablita for awarding your 12 points to Ireland this year Thanks as always for everyone for continuing to participate and make this show interesting and entertaining for us all
  5. I honestly don't know what you mean by this and think this is an unfair statement. Every single host can tell you that they have complete control over the scheduling and what days and times they want to host. I always tell the host they have full control to organize as they would like and that it's their show.
  6. Welcome to the forum Book. Great to have you here
  7. I will be flying home from a holiday on the day of the Grand Final so I may miss most of it and also my voting time. But I will be travelling home from the airport by bus (4 hours) so it will be a good way to pass the time by catching up on all the fun
  8. Hi @Vektor, I'm just going out to the St.Patrick's Day parade but will give this more consideration later when I get home. I think I would be more willing to allow it as long as the song is sung by the same artist as the original and if it doesn't differ too much musically from the original. Might be a good one to put to a vote after this contest so we have an answer before the next Open edition.
  9. Today is our national holiday, St.Patrick’s Day. Each city, town and village will have their own parade today to celebrate. I will be going to my local parade at 3pm The Dublin City parade is starting now if anyone is interested to watch: https://www.rte.ie/player/onnow/66546216066
  10. Having a look through the schedule here is some of the big days for Team Ireland Included a few outside chances here that probably unlikely to medal but not without some realistic chance. On the otherhand I have not included outside chances that may yet come to fruition, for example boxing could have more chances when the team is finalised, men's road race cycling and other outside chances in equestrian (individual jumping). Overall it looks most likely we will win our first medal on Day 4 or 5 and then with a lot of chances coming on the middle weekend. Our first gold could possibly be on Day 7 in the men's lightweight double sculls.

  11. Paris 2024 Qualification - Team Ireland Jack Woolley qualifies for his second Olympic Games in taekwondo and becomes the 91st member of Team Ireland!

  12. A quick Google search says he was banned for 4 years and 3 months from February 28th, 2020, so assuming his ban ends at the end of May of this year. The qualification period runs until June 23rd so theoretically he could qualify but it is beyond unlikely to be honest.
  13. Mr.Bach won’t like that. It doesn’t meet the youth and urban agenda.
  14. Parkinson's Law..... work expands to fill the time allotted for its completion
  15. Nice to see the flags making prominent appearances throughout the championship. Too bad those flags were hanging in the stands rather than being paraded around the track in celebration
  16. McDonagh was 5-0 winner over in the men’s 92kg+
  17. It’s also one of the few national flags with the colour purple on it
  18. I have my final 15, just need to finalise the order now. I think it's pretty stable but there might be some shifts in position so will give it another listen or two before submitting my votes.
  19. Is this official? Can you post a source for this, just want to update the qualification tracker
  20. Yes, an "AND" statement would make much more sense. In that case it would be like my 2) scenario in my earlier post. No athletes who have already participated in 2 Olympics can claim a universality quota. And also those over the age of 30 are likewise not eligible. So for now without clarification it's not certain what way to interpret this
  21. World Aquatics seems to imply the opposite in their website so it almost seems like they can compete in more than 2 Olympics if they are under the age of 30.
