True, but being entirely honest....it's the Youth Olympics, even if they were in the middle of the European day I honestly doubt there'd be much more than a handful of viewers... 

I do think this is a great time have an event like this though. No Olympics, fewer world championships, and it takes place before/in between other major sports events (Daytona 24, Super Bowl, whatever the hell Europeans watch in late January/early February :p)

Not them listing the actual home address of an athlete (wont list due to privacy) :facepalm:

Athlete/NF/NOC probably input into the system and it slipped under the radar. I’d just email the NOC/NF of said athlete, and give them a heads up.

The pictograms kind of have a retro feel in my opinion (at least the ones on the results PDFs). They remind me of the 70s/80s pictograms.

Mentioning Daytona 24, but not the Daytona 500....ouch, man :p 

 

But yeah, in terms of time it's entirely logical, I just don't think there is such a wide interest in Youth Olympics as we on this forum - me definitely included - would like to believe :p

The PDFs are in the same order, but they did show the splits ranked. I think that's just how the software works for training in luge.

Yeah, it's unfortunately the same in the World Cups. It's like they have a perfect system for races, but for trainings they use something entirely different which just doesn't work (for years already) :d

well, my schedule doesn't think the same...:cry: :facepalm:

 

Hockey season, Basketball season, NFL playoffs, Handball and Waterpolo Europeans, Wintersports season (with all the not-to-be-missed "classics"), Fencing season, Football Asian and African Cup...

 

last weekend was already dramatic to follow, the next one is even worse...

Right, now I remember one of the flaws of this result system, for whatever reason they show training results (hopefully not actual race results later on) like this :lol:

 

I mean....come on, just enter "Sort by 'Time'" somewhere :lol:

just click on the "Rank" item and you get the results sorted by time...and you can choose if you like it from first to last or viceversa :p
