Wait, now there are no notifications at all anymore (I mean, for example a quote or mention or reputation had a check, which I as user couldn't change, but that's alright...now it has an X which I as user can't change, but those are the things I do want notifications for  ) 

 

Check now

So Mauritania has approved of a new flag so we will have to add the red stripes here too.

Not yet i think. The flag isn't approved yet by IOC and UN

But it is still their flag... also we could add Vatican City?

It isn't yet their flag for the international community, i guess

Other smilies have ":" at the end?  

 

 and  are literally the only ones I know without having to look it up (well and  but that's sooooooo 'know it all'-like so I hate using it  )

 

Half of the time I want  I type *O* because that's how it is on a Dutch forum before realizing here I have to look it up first

Question about the results portal? Why are there no brackets used (like in tennis) in sports where a bracket is the way it works?

 

For example in judo, posts and things are so incredibly long, it's just not readable. Why would anyone want to look there instead of for example on Wikipedia, where almost an entire weight class fits in one or maybe two screens and you have the advantage of clicking on an athlete's name to see their Wiki page?

 

Not to sound too complaining, but I find it a little hard to see any advantage of using the Totallympics results portal vs a way bigger site like Wikipedia for almost all sports (at least world championships). I see the advantage for small competitions, but for tennis Grand Slams or big world champs or anything, Wikipedia is a million times more user-friendly and that's not gonna change..

Most of them had it.  for instance. Of course, the simple ones are without the dots.
