8/10 (but again this time the question 1 didn´t show my answer in the final recap - it was the correct one obviously)

 

Missed the winter universiade 2019 sport (dumb mistake) and once again the poetic/literature thing from the opening ceremony, how on earth can anyone know that ???

 

dude, what about your obsession to always include this sort of questions in a sport forum ? :lol:

Of course, because one of these ever working out would be impossible :(

 

Did you not get the Winter questions I made for you? Half the damn quiz is winter sports! :p 
 

How on Earth can anyone know that? By watching ceremony, the OBS announcer who says what play it is, the Wikipedia article, general knowledge. Again, I want to make the quiz doable and competitive, but also educational and interesting. 
 

In fairness, that is a question pertaining to sports. I also never technically restricted the quiz to sport only questions. I feel like 1 or 2 “off-beat” questions a quiz isn’t a big.

 

I love reading your feedback as always, and your anger about the literature question gives me energy for the rest of the day :p

7/10 with the first question not noted by the system.

Is this counting the one that malfunctioned?

I watched live all ceremonies since Lillehammer 1994 (yeah I was too young but still) and I can guarantee you our commentators never mentioned a single word about Shakespeare or I don´t know who else who wrote something some million years ago during the golden age of piracy or so you´ll invent for the next quiz :p

 I am not angry, just infinitely curious why you are so obsessed with adding literature and art questions in a olympics based sport quiz in a olympic based sport forum :d

Fair (just wait until I start the hard questions :p)

 

Careful what you ask for...

 

I know you weren’t upset, but I wasn’t sure about the best to write what I wanted to say. :yes I’m infinitely glad you all chose to participate in this little quizzes and generally enjoy them. Obviously I can’t satisfy everyone, every week, but I try to make them as informative, interesting, challenging, and fun as possible. Thanks for playing this week, you may get a shoutout for a high score in the near future.

I know this is really short notice, but would somebody be willing to write event reviews of the 2020 IBU World Championships for us?

Great, who decided to hold the Pan American Combined Climbing Championships and the Rugby Sevens World Tour on the same weekend ?. How am I supposed to cover both? :dunno:

 

I think I’ll chose to cover the IFSC Pan Ams, but that’s annoying, It’s not like I’m overflowing with opportunities to attend events in-person as media.

Totally Quiz will be out sometime tomorrow. I apologize for being late, but it’s been hard to find motivation to write it recently.

    • It's all hogwash especially in the short attention span generation. Like nobody cares about Free Tibet anymore either. Free Palestine will last a lot longer due to Saudi Arabia becoming a sponsorship force in sports.   Israel is too weak in soccer to qualify from UEFA zone. The only time they qualified was from the Asian zone and they only beat Australia & New Zealand who were complete nobodies in the 1960s. No such luck in the 60 years since.
    • Oh I assure you FIFA dodger a bullet with Israel not qualifying…   But ya that’s kind of the thing, shut up and dribble is a mantra anti LGBT people have used often. I don’t think it’s hypocritical to remind them of their position
    • Ah, yes but that's not how pro athletes are taught in North America these days? Shut up & dribble is xenophobic, racist or whatever? The hypocrisy of some of these policies were exposed during 2022 World Cup already where the Saudis played it smart and waved their own "Free Palestine' slogans. Forget LGBT rights for a moment, how many 'Free Palestine' flags will be waved in 2026? Or will those be confiscated by default? Somehow I feel this won't be met with similar backlash when China clamped down on 'Free Tibet' in 2008 OG. Saudi Arabia is more important to global markets than Iran & Egypt 
    • Wisła Płock just assumed 1st position after five consecutive draws. Must be first time ever a team on a five match winless streak actually moves up to league top.
    • Well ya, which is why the Egyptian and Iranian teams can shut up and dribble :P
    • The problem is, the World Cup is not a local event. Overall it's another storm in a teacup. LGBT rights in Muslim countries won't change a damn inch becuse of one soccer match in Seattle 
    • After looking at the entry list of athletes in the official website, I've changed some of my predictions in the Olympic events with these changes:   Total Tally: Thailand 87, Singapore 51, Vietnam 48, Indonesia 33, Philippines 24, Malaysia 22, Cambodia 1     Badminton (5): Malaysia 2, Thailand 1, Singapore 1, Indonesia 1   Men’s Singles: Switched from Thailand to Singapore     Boxing (11): Thailand 8, Philippines 2, Vietnam 1   Men: -54 kg (-55 kg): Thailand, -60 kg: Thailand, -63.5 kg (-65 kg): Thailand, -69 kg (-70 kg): Thailand, -80 kg: Philippines   Women: -50 kg (-51 kg): Thailand, -54 kg: Thailand, -57 kg: Thailand, -60 kg: Vietnam, -66 kg (-65 kg): Thailand, -70 kg: Philippines     Sailing (7): Thailand 4, Singapore 2, Malaysia 1   ICLA 6: Switched from Thailand to Malaysia     Taekwondo (8): Thailand 6, Vietnam 2   -67 kg: Switched from  Vietnam to Thailand     Weightlifting (5): Thailand 2, Philippines 1, Indonesia 1, Malaysia 1   Men: -65 kg: Malaysia, -94 kg (-95 kg): Thailand   Women: -53 kg: Thailand, -69 kg: Philippines, -77 kg: Indonesia   * I saw that they have actually change the weight categories to almost match that of IWF newly introduced categories from several months ago.      Wrestling (12): Vietnam 7, Philippines 3, Indonesia 2   Men's Freestyle: -57 kg: Philippines, -65 kg: Vietnam, -74 kg: Vietnam, -86 kg: Philippines Men's Greco-Roman: -67 kg: Indonesia, -77 kg: Vietnam, -87 kg: Indonesia, -97 kg: Vietnam Women's Freestyle: -50 kg: Vietnam, -53 kg: Vietnam, -57 kg: Vietnam, -62 kg: Philippines    
    • Many permutations possible in the last game, going to be a nail-biter!  v  is the live game on the Olympic Channel later today.   2025 WCF Curling Olympic Qualification Event – Kelowna, Canada   Team   Wins   Losses   Men       CHN 6   0     P USA 5   1     P JPN 4   2     NED 3   3     PHI 3   3     KOR 2   4     NZL 1   5     POL 0   6    
    • This is absolutely ridiculous. If you aren’t willing to celebrate Pride then you should simply not come to Seattle. You have to respect local customs.   https://www.bbc.com/sport/football/articles/c208392884jo
    • loses to  with hammer in extra ends which clinched a spot for  in the #1 vs #2 game.  3rd playoff spot still up for grabs tomorrow on the men's side
