Brazil and Liechtenstein qualifying in three out of four events, I'm not entirely sure if that says something about Brazil's and Liechtenstein's youth program or the general strength of the Omega Youth Series....I guess both, a little :p 

Liechtenstein has put legitimate funding into their program. They recently purchased a push track that can be set up anywhere with a enough room. They’ve been trying to build a program because I think it’s a sport where they think they could see some success. Brazil has a good program, there’s just not a lot of interest, and because of how the Youth Series works their ranked higher than some more traditional countries. Overall, every NOC that attempted to get a quota should get one. Really it just comes down to there was enough quotas to make everyone happy, and some NOCs just don’t want to fund a trip to the YOG.

Damn :LUX had a great men’s skater, but I fear he missed the age deadline. His sister could still be a medal threat. :SLO seems to have a grudge against speed skating. Very happy for :BUL because they were screwed out of that quota original (Swiss beat them on the host quota requirement).

Must be injured or something then? If it’s the kid I was thinking of, he would have been an odds on favorite for a medal.

It's awkward when you say "kid".

I’ve been an adult for over a year now, so I don’t think so. It’s weird that you don’t refer to Olympic athletes as “kid” given your old age :p

3 more stan countries received quotas

 

:KGZ  :PAK:UZB    

 

Meaning only :AFG are the only ones without one. 

What sport? Afghanistan has an opportunity, but their skiers will need to improve.

    • I have reported this again and they said it should be fixed now, please let me know if you are still facing issues.
    • more countries added to the list of US ban    you can't travel to USA if you are from : burkina faso , niger , Laos , South sudan , mali , sierra leon ...
    • Yes, but what I mean for Serbia is that everything changed there (unfortunately for us ). 2022 was an unbelievable mess, that's not the case anymore now with just one athlete who has really gone for it and made it, so I'm 99% sure they'll accept it this time.   Who knows though. Plus there's always 1-2 bigger countries here or there who reject something, but it's not gonna be 16 places I'm afraid   
    • Doping by Event Type When we look at which events have the most doping cases, a few categories stand out from recent sanction records: Long Distance (3,000m and above): 32% of cases Sprints (400m or less): 24% of cases Jumps: 12% of cases Javelin: 8% of cases Middle Distance (800m–1,500m): 8% of cases Hammer: 8% of cases Steeplechase (3,000m SC): 4% of cases
    • From 2020 to 2025    These three countries alone make up almost two-thirds (61.9%) of all current doping violations in athletics worldwide. It’s worth noting that 199 of World Athletics’ 214 member federations have no athletes on the current ban list. This means the problem is really concentrated in a small number of places. Here’s a look at the top countries: Rank Country Total Violations Percentage Region 1 Kenya 119 24.74% Africa 2 India 108 22.45% Asia 3 Russia 73 15.18% Europe 4 China 26 5.40% Asia 5 Turkey 20 4.16% Europe 6 Italy 18 3.74% Europe 7 South Africa 18 3.74% Africa 8 Ukraine 17 3.53% Europe 9 United States 16 3.33% North America 10 Morocco 15 3.12% Africa
    • Here's my calculations of the quotas. I believe you are correct about Italy having 3 quotas in men's singles.   Men's Singles   3 Quotas: 2 Quotas: 1 Quota:   data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAPABAP///wAAACH5BAEKAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAICRAEAOw==   Women's Singles   3 Quotas: 2 Quotas: 1 Quota:     Men's Doubles   2 Quotas: 1 Quota:     Women's Doubles   1 Quota:
