Totallympics Announcements Thread

Here's an idea for future updates (not sure if it's possible): having the qualification tracker of our own nation up there with the overall tracker. Like, below the "Paris 2024 Qualification Tracker" have a Hungarian qualification tracker if the user is Hungarian. (I mean, for now it would say "0 quotas in 0 sports", but I think you get the idea. :d)

That would be a good idea. Not too easy to realize though. Probably it is something which should be linked with the club the user is part of.

Anyway there is a direct link to the Paris Qualification by Nation (https://totallympics.com/qualification-tracker/paris-2024/qualification-by-nation/), from which is very easy to find your nation and open the tracker. But thank you for the suggestion, I will see if it is possible to add something like that in the future.

This sounds perfect, and surely something that has to be done. Can it be connected with the national club, if not to the declared nation of user?

 

Overall, I am impressed by the new page. This is an Olympic forum after all.

Could you make the scrolling for the news section slightly slower? Also, are you able to add a link to the header? If not can you make the Totallympics News more prominent on the tool bar at the top of the page?

Yeah, as I said probably the easiest thing would be to connect it with the club the user is in. But this is not something easy, because we would need a block for each nation. Probably the easiest thing would be to show a link to the nation's qualification tracker (for example Hungary: https://totallympics.com/qualification-tracker/paris-2024/qualification-by-nation/hungary/qualification-tracker-r1134/

I agree it was too fast.  It is not possible to make it slower, but I have removed the automatic scrolling. Users can easily scroll to the following news anyway, and in this way the latest news are always shown first.

Yes, that would be possible. But the link to Totallympics News is easily reachable clicking the "Discover" menu. The home page of the News is not that important anymore now that the block with the latest news is shown in the home page. Having "Totallympics News" in the navigation bar would take lots of space in the bar.

I was so confused when I didn't see all of the sports listed, since it was mostly how I navigated this forum, but I was glad to see it still under /forums.

 

Since these categories, threads and discussions are what Totallympics is all about, I would at least try to somehow highlight the forums tab or have an additional way on the home page to access them 

 

Right now it feels like the news take priority over the discussions, since they're easier to access and larger on the screen.

 

It helped me that I knew what I was looking for, but I wonder how it is from a new user experience stand point.

 

To make news more accessible, you don't need to hide them under the >discover tab.

    • 4-3  over  at the break, Norway with hammer.
    • whatever you heard is just speculation. no one knows at the moment, probably even the orange himself.   and Iranian athletes failed to get visa so many times before. even female athletes. there is no pattern, it's just too random.    and yes Iran has a system of compulsory military service for men, and there is 50% chance for anybody to be randomly drafted by IRGC affiliated organizations. that's the case for Taremi and few others in the current team.  
    • Would you believe the NCAA Indoor season has already started?      
    • Some changes that I've noticed:   3x3 Basketball: With the expanded 12 team field, one extra team per gender qualifies through world rankings, one extra team qualifies through the universality driven tournament and there's now an Olympic Qualifier series to award the final quotas.   Beach Volleyball: Continental qualifiers have have priority over the World championship and World Rankings quotas and there's now Olympic Qualifier Series quotas.   Canoe Sprint: World ranking system now in place and will be used instead of awarding world championship quotas. Road Cycling: 2 nations ranking quotas per gender moved to universality.   Track Cycling: Sprint and Keirin ranking list is now combined and will award 14 quotas per gender. Previously it was 7+7. Team pursuit down to 8 quotas from 10. 2 of the quotas have been moved to madison (one additional team) and 6 to the omnium.   Fencing: Can get a Continental quota of you finished in the top 24 of the rankings. It was previously top 16.    Hockey: 2 pro league quotas replace two qualification tournament quotas.   Judo: 5 less universality places and 4 more Continental places. For men, there's two more spots for Asia, one less for Oceania and 1 more for the Americas. For the women, there's one more spot for Europe, one less for Oceania and two more for Asia.   Modern Pentathlon: Less quotas awarded through world rankings as a result of quota cuts.   Open Water Swimming: Introduction of world ranking qualifier.   Sailing: In general, seems to be more quotas awarded at the last chance regatta and less quotas at the World Championships   Shooting: One less quota handed out at each World Championship and the return on World Cup qualifiers.   Swimming: Olympic qualification and consideration times renamed to A and B standard. B standard is now 1% slower than the A standard compared to 0.5% in 2024. Stroke 50s have their own direct qualification events and have minimum time standards instead of A and B standards. Qualification times have been nuked again. B standard selection process has also changed.   Volleyball: New revised format. Continental championships first, then world championships followed by world rankings. In 2024, it was 3 qualification tournaments and then world rankings. Only 3 countries per gender will qualify by world rankings now compared to 5 in 2024
    • For Italy, the match against Japan and likely the final match against Estonia will be a safe/relegation game, but I'm think that whether the match against Estonia will be decisive on anything, if we have 0 points after 4 matches. We're currently the worst team here – we have 0 points and are taking significantly fewer shots than our opponents in each match. Japan and Estonia are looking better for now and unfortunately, without significant improvement play starting tomorrow, we'll likely be relegated to the fourth division. With the absence of Russia and Belarus, this will be a shame, even for the weaker 2006/2007 age generation. Especially, since we are playing this tournament at home. For anyone could have competed with a good shape, except perhaps Hungary, who are currently the best team in the tournament.
    • They shouldn't promise additional spots to countries that qualify 3 athletes in each distance, because then taking those spots away isn't fair. For example, in Italy, Previtali won the 500m QO for country but he would likely have to stay at home because the staff probably would have chosen Casinelli for the relay (Casinelli won't be competing individually at all). I don't know what the situation is in Canada with the fifth-place skater? Will this person only compete in the relay, or will he also be a reserve there? 
    • That's too bad. Athletes who finish in the top 32 (or 36 for the 1590m) should be the priority over the 5th athlete from a relay country.   So Croatia loses their 2nd women's quota, Hong Kong loses their only women's quota and Poland loses their 3rd women's quota.   This means that Great Britain, Slovakia and Ukraine should fill up the rest of the 1500m field since they are the highest placed reserves that doesn't require an additional quota.    
    • Philip Rivers' possible return to NFL while being a semifinalist for the Hall of Fame certainly wasn't on my bingo card. But well. So far he's only on the practice squad
    • Thursday December 11th, 2025 - Round-Robin Day 4 Schedule (GMT +1)   12:30   Austria vs Ukraine 16:00   Norway vs Kazakhstan 19:30   Slovenia vs France
