For Dutch athletes it was either "Top 15 World Championships 2015" or "Top 1 European Continental Championships 2016". In case a quota was earned in the 2nd of those ways, there were some additional standards:

 

- One top-8 finish in a World Cup in 2015-2016

- Top-8 at the 2016 European Championship

- Two top-12 finishes at World Cups 2015-2016

- Top-12 at the 2016 European Championship

 

The 2nd and 4th are quite weirdly described in the Dutch documents :p

Also, what actually happened? I mean, where did he finish and stuff like that? I can't find any results :p 

 

And, ashamed to ask, but...who is it? :d

Thanks, no Olympics for him then. 

 

I think it's this:

 

1 result that fits in "top-8 in a World Cup or top-8 at the Europeans" OR

2 results that fit in "top-12 in a World Cup and top-12 at Europeans"

 

So for example a 12th place finish at a World Cup and an 11th place in Europeans would have been enough.

 Maarten Hermans, who ended up in 14th place overall in the semifinals (and this is his final place, since only the top 10 advance to the final run)...

 

by the way, in the Italian team, after a pretty disastrous semifinal stage, it should now be official...Daniele Molmenti won't defend his Olympic Gold medal from London 2012...our representative in Rio will be in fact Giovanni De Gennaro, who won the internal selection after the end of the entire process...:evil:

not at all...I think Molmenti could have still given a sign of life in the big occasion, meanwhile I don't see how De Gennaro can finish on the podium of the Olympic Games...

and I didn't like that all the qualifying races have been held in Liptovsky Mikulas (also the previous 2 were held in SVK last month)...they should have chosen at least 3 different courses, not only one for all the selecting events...

    • One of my favorite songs from the early 2000s that I listened to on a cassette on my walkman      
    • For me 20 medals will be good. And if more there are? Super. However, I prefer not to get my hopes up too much, so as not to be disappointed later.
    • If you're still taking suggestions, I tought the following:   Team Madison format.   17 teams of 2 "riders", randomly drawn. Teams can be named for famous "endurance" track cyclists. 4 intermediate "sprints", one after a voting block, in which the top 8 teams will score according to this formula: (10, 8, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2 & 1). The order in which team score for a sprint are determined by the total number of "medals" won by both members of the team during the block. Ranking will be sorted according to the number of gold medals, then silver, then bronze. If there's two or more teams with same number of points, the medals of best individual performer of each team will be considered to break the tie. If the tie remains, then team's total points during the block will be used to break it. If the team fails to receive a single medal during each block, it will be considered to "lose lap" and 20 points will be substracted from their score. If the team fails to score at least 1 point during each block, it will be an automatic DNF for the team. If both members of the team get a medal from a single jury, it will be considered to "gain lap" and 20 points will be added to their score. A team can only win an additional lap per voting block. After the 4 intermediate, a "final" sprint will be recorded, in which points will be doubled (20, 16, 12, 10, 8, 6, 4 & 2). Ranking for the final sprint will take into account the total medals won during the event.   What do you think?
    • I don't medal pick, per se... I assign probabilities/expected-values and total them up. So I don't have a gold medal estimate... but if you want one, divide those numbers by three and you'll be pretty close!   I imagine Norway, Italy and Netherlands and maybe Canada will probably skew a bit higher on golds, and US, Germany, and Sweden will skew a little lower... so maybe: Norway - 14 US - 11 Germany - 11 Italy - 11 Canada - 10 Austria - 8 Netherlands - 8 Japan - 7 Sweden - 6 France.- 6   I was surprised seeing Italy come in that high, I was figuring 22-23, but I guess they've been do well on the World Cups. 
    • If you were to predict top- 10 for the number of gold medals, what would it look like?     For me, as an Italian, any result for Italy: +20 medals would be OK (if that will include 6-7 gold medals). The trauma of Turin 2006 is too great
    • Doesn't really help that two of the strongest countries in that particular sport are banned from the team event for well known reasons.
    • Just another reason why it's super dumb that the NOC max in freestyle skiing isn't 40.
    • In rugby there's More Squidge Rugby (the main channel has proper videos).
