The site looks awesome! I was just wondering where the link to the live blog will be?

It will be in the new section tomorrow a few minutes before the Beach Volley games start.

Ladies, Gentlemen, timetravlers, and bestmen; I present to you the following new and exciting project: https://games24.totallympics.com/

It’s still in early stages and development, we will bring extensive coverage of the Pan American Games on here instead of the daily podcasts. I really hope you guys like it. It’s a project I hope to maintain for years to come.

well I guess it makes sense for US people to learn Spanish, especially if you live in the South

I’m going to be clear about this one, never refer to my beloved California as the South. Broader state is what call ourselves. The South means something else in the US.

Definitely Monaco  for a small country, but bigger country France  cause I speak French 

Yeah I always wanted to take French, but people have convinced me to take Spanish ever and ever again. At Spanish is helpful for the Spanish language websites involved in the Pan American Games.

Big announcement in the morning! I’m really excited.

Heck, I even haven't seen the Asian Para Games TV ident because all the broadcast will just abruptly start in the middle of the event.

I saw it quite a few times. The IPC broadcast the event internationally, and they seemed to know more what they were doing than the host broadcaster.

Good idea. Knowing @Dragon‘s extensive knowledge, we will be asked if we know the middle name of the paternal grandfather of the gold medal winning captain in men’s water polo at the 1920 Olympics  

Exactly, #winninglikepimpingainteasy

Sounds good, what do you have in mind  

Well I’m thinking the questions can have anything to do with sports or the Olympic Movement, maybe @Dragon could help me if interested. The games will be between 10-20 questions long. 

I’ll host the game (there by disqualifying myself) on YouTube by making a prepared video and livestream it at a announced time using the premiere feature. People would answer real time in the chat. There won’t be any prizes or anything originally, but if people like it and it’s doing well, I could maybe arrange something.

[Olympian1010 7,559]

Would any be interested in a live trivia game? . I think the new Totallympics Channel needs its first program.

Yeah I can remember the music from Vancouver 2010, Baku 2015, Rio 2016, Baku 2017, Malaysia 2017, Pyeongchang 2018, Barranquilla 2018 (which isn’t in there yet), Buenos Aires 2018, and Jakarta 2018.

 

My personal favorites for the background music are Athens 2004, Baku 2017, Rio 2016. I also love the 1976 ceremonies intro (I don’t know if I included that one in the list)

Just recognized the Baku 2017 song in the EYOF Opening Ceremony right now?

No I get that. But just wanted to share what my favourite intro is. I like this one because of the dramatic music and is why i love the Lillehammer one. I like ones with catchy music too, like London 2012 Paralympics and Singapore YOG 2010. And it's nice when they feature clips of the sports being presented against the backdrop of the host city.

It’s honestly one of my favorite things every games. They get me hyped to watch, and I’m always interested to them for the first time before the opening ceremony.

Lillehammer 1994 is so good!  Singapore 2010 Youth Olympic Games and London 2012 Paralympics are great too, still remember the music for each.

 

Rio 2016 Paralympics one was quite good too.

 

 

My favourite broadcast intro is the BBC London 2012 into.... the dramatic music is magnificent and exactly what an Olympic intro should be all about...brings back so many good memories.

TAS could really still use a extra person for the 2019 Pacific Games. Any user is welcome, no experience needed, and you don’t have have to record your voice if you don’t want too. If someone’s got nothing better to do from the 7th-20th this month we could really use your help.
