Unfortunately we lost a quota in alpine skiing, at least for now. 

 

Natko lost his AC fis points as he is not in top 30 anymore and is now in 215th place. Probably that is still enough. 

 

Should be, as he is still ahead of Rodeš who is likely to qualify anyway.

 

I've made some simulations, and realistically we can expect around 30 or more reallocations, what would even put the likes of Komšić and Štimac on the bubble (taking into account that most of the spots on reallocation list come from big nations/nations who will decline). At least 3 should be safe though.

30 reloccations-who?

 

Mostly Norway, Sweden and Germany.

 

Norway - 22 quotas, currently 9 athletes selected (10 selected in 2014), will be at least 10 reallocations presumably

Sweden - 13 quotas, currently 8 selected

Germany - 16 quotas, 11 athletes reached internal standards

 

And then we have the likes...

Liechtenstein - 5 quotas, will not use more than 2

Netherlands - 2 quotas, will decline both

Belgium - 2 quotas, will (likely) decline both

Cayman Islands - 1 quota, both Travers brothers retired, nobody left

Denmark - 2 quotas, will decline women's quota

New Zealand - 2 quotas, will also likely decline women's quota

Japan - 6 quotas, used only 2/8 quotas in 2014, so I expect something similar

Mexico/Albania - 2 quotas, both of their female racers haven't entered a single race this season, it's questionable

And I'm pretty sure that between CAN/FIN/FRA/GBR/SLO/USA at least 2-3 more will be found

 

Maybe I missed some more...

 

All this equals 30-40 reallocations.

Excellent FIS points for the guys today. Now we are basically guaranteed at least 4 additional places.


So that's gonna be at least 16 athletes. Maybe 17-18 if really lucky.

Very smart move by Croski. Finally one federation who knows how to do its job :) 

 

all will  improve their rankings significantly except Natko

    • Those hurt, especially not one but two countries that have never missed a single contest likely missing out now     Where did everyone go?   Edit: I see Slovenia is in, that's fantastic news! Brazil though...   I think I'm going to ask if @brunamoura wants to come up with a song, despite really not having lots of time for it due to training and work. With some luck, she can listen the playlist on Spotify during training or something and get a bit of a sense of which songs she likes. If that's acceptable for people of course, I can perfectly imagine people wouldn't be too happy with that since we literally share a household and it might be seen as a conflict of interest (although anyway I always only tell her my favourite songs after I sent my votes).
    • Announcement:   I'm going to extend the deadline for countries submission to Monday 30th September at 23:58 BST, with the voting now not opening to the public until Wednesday 2nd October at 23:58 BST. I felt this was necessary to do due to the lack of nations + the lack of some of the major players and not due to me failing to come up with an entry (@Vektor) that I will be posting after this announcement. This will be the last deadline that is moved, with the only dates potentially moving being the final dates. 
    • looking at the  Junior WCH (U-20) results so far, seems like USA is gearing up. the target would be to challenge China in LA 2028 and snatch few gold medals here and there.   p.s: China is not participating in Junior WCH     I am wondering if we can see USA in good shape in Bahrain WCH too 
    • Is Trump becomes President is he really going to let in the likes of Iran if they qualify. Fifa could protest if he won’t but sort of cancelling it they don’t have much leeway. 
    • SLOVENIA  Magnifico - Hir aj kam hir aj go     Robert Pešut, better known as Magnifico is one of most established Slovenian singers. He started his solo career more than 30 years ago.   Few weeks ago, he celebrated this jubilee with special concert in front of more than 20.000 people on special site in Ljubljana. Maybe does not seem a lot, but here there were not many concerts played with that crowd.   He is known for his special type of humour in his music and lyrics. Around 20 years ago he sold album Export Import, from which most known song is "Hir aj kam hir aj go", which was received well in other countries, especially in Italy.   Just another fact, Magnifico wrote two Eurovision songs, Sestre - Samo Ljubezen (Only Love) in 2002 and also for Montenegrin performer Rambo Amadeus (Euro Neuro).   He tried himself to perform at Eurovision, but with his still very well known "Silvija", ended 5th in EMA 1998 (Slovenia National Final).   SONG LYRICS  
    • Oh how I’ve missed Canucks hockey, Silovs with another beauty of a save      
    • Round of 16 - September 24th    1 - 3     5 - 0 
    • Think I'm gonna extend the deadline to another day, we've got plenty of time to spare and I shouldn't take too long to vote.
