Southeast Asian Games 2019

Just found out Short Track is back on the program (or at least the results system says it is)

I think construction will be finished in time, but these are very worrying pictures a few days out from the games . I’m not sure as to the validity of reporting, but from my understanding Rappler is a good source. https://www.rappler.com/sports/specials/sea-games/245619-rizal-memorial-under-construction-before-2019

Here’s the the ever-present scourge of multi-sports games; the less than ideal results system: https://rs.2019seagames.com/RS2019/GamesSchedule

Hello. I'm new here. How did you find the results system? I can't access it through the SEA Games homepage. Thanks

It’s under the schedule tab (or at least it was). You can find it at that link too. 

 

Also welcome to forum! Always nice to gain a new member. By your username, I would imagine you’re very excited for these games

They are reliable (the Indonesian version is also quite popular too).

 

Don't worry about the venues, I think they can't be worse than us in 2011, where all venues finished exactly a day before the opening

But behold the first international casualty has fallen:

If it were Indonesia I would have suspected foul play, but I’d imagine this is just a sad mistake.

Polo begins today by the way. From what I’ve read the tournament is anyone’s to win.

Thanks. If I'm not mistaken, it's the same results system they've been using since 2009 (with the exception of 2015 when the Singaporeans used ATOS). And I'm afraid I'm not too excited for these Games. Too many sports and too many events for me.

Yes, 2015 used ATOS (which is why they’re the only edition with PDFs available ). The ATOS system is definitely the better of the two. There can never be too many sports or events (though the organizers are testing that theory )
