Like i said, fair Point But to anyone who watched the Race it should be obvious that i was Talking about Eckhoff and Not Olsbu.

 

How should I know? I'm not living inside your brain. I'm only reading your posts. Herrmann dominating Olsbu was a flat out LIE and I exposed it as such.

 

And  you sure meant Olsbu alright since you mentioned her as one of the two best athletes this season. Eckhoff's not even in Top 10 of the standings so I have no idea how could you say she's top 2 of the season.

Luckily at the Open Europeans in Minsk local TV production didn't show us half the shootings of every Belarussian rando fighting for 83rd spot :) 

 

Spoiler

Oh wait.

1) Like i said, fair point, its not your fault.

2) I wouldnt call it a lie, but stating that Herrmann dominated Olsbu was certainly wrong. For it to be a lie, i would have had to know that what i said wasnt true and that wasnt the case since i meant Eckhoff and not Olsbu. I never meant Herrmann dominated Olsbu.

3) I for sure didnt mean Olsbu, since it wouldnt even make any sense to compare two athletes who ran different legs (different conditions, different tactics and so on).

4) I never said Eckhoff is top 2 this season, i think i just said that she is one of the best athletes this season and i still think thats true.

Anyone had a perfect prediction? I got Norway and Italy right, but sadly France completely messed up instead of winning silver ...

US did about what I thought the would do.  

Dunklee went ok, but used 5 spares, but her skiing was fast.  Egan only used 3 spares, not as fast as Dunklee, but good.  Doherty went 0 + 0, skied fast and had the team in 8th at the last handover.  Nordgren went 3+5 :cry:.  They ended had a 2 min penalty as well for IBU DR 5.5 b - 5.5 deals with Ski Testing on the Competition Course.  

 

Found it - "Every round not fired if athletes recommence skiing before they have fired all ... eight shots in a relay competition, having not hit all targets"  I wonder if this was the thing that happened to Dunklee or was Nordgren the one guilty?

Also @dcro no Croatia on single mix start list :( 

It's a provisional start list though, changes are possible...(Brazil was on the provisional list for the SMR in Lenzerheide even though they had already left Lenzerheide for example)

    • China Media Group (CMG) will broadcast all 116 gold medal events of the Milan Winter Olympics live on CCTV-1, CCTV-5, CCTV-5+ and CCTV-16. It will also use technologies such as 4K/8K ultra-high definition to enhance the viewing experience. Live broadcasts of all events will be carried out from 16:00 Beijing time to 06:00 the next day.
    • The strength of the UK is that they are 100% focused on the track, while Italy must to navigate between the track and the road: the line-up is different for practically every event, etc. Paternoster should focus 100% on the track; she won't win anything big on the road anymore. As it is, she's weak both there and there. The situation is different with Balsamo, as she's also having significant success on the road and likely earns the most money there.
    • Discovery+ in the UK have also got their schedule up now.     I notice that only thing listed as being in UHD is the Opening Ceremony though....     
    • The problem over the last few years was that no-one was able to keep pace with the big Katie Archibald turns. Looks to be sorted now.  
    • The women's top 50 is so crammed with athletes from the same five nations that it is not inconceivable they are unable to fill the full quota from the top 50, in which case a third double spot would open up between USA/BEL/GBR
    • That women's pursuit team looks brutally fast. Batter you over the head into submission brutal, perhaps not seen since the early Trott-Rowsell days The 4 minute barrier could be on borrowed time.   The two British women sprinters Finucane and Caldwell also look pretty ominous, indeed the whole women's sprint team looks in some shape and with some depth to get that result without Finucane   Work to do for the British men's teams, but they won't be unhappy either, not to mention Joe Truman's unexpected Kilo win.
    • I prefer to do mine like this guy (https://app.podiumsport.it/) does his "Projected Medals" as probability based rather than straight medal picking... all things being equal, conversion rates should be about the same and the outliers come out in the wash. Unfortunately most people just like medal picking, and think any other approach is weird  
    • So probably: Men Oceania: Americas: Africa: Asia: One of  Europe: One of Host: World Rankings: Combination of  (probably not)  and whichever countries don’t qualify from Asian Games.  Universality: ? Final Qualification Tournament: One of the above in World Rankings    and one of  (most likely) or  seem safe with two quotas. The other will be favourites if a third team gets allocated two.    Women Oceania: Europe: One of Americas:  /  if US is ineligible due to their host quota, if the host quota gets reallocated then Canada will be in contention in the rankings Africa:   Asia: One of   Host: World Rankings: Combination of  (x1?)  (x1/2)  (x1/2), whichever doesn’t qualify out of  / ,  and  ? Final Qualification Tournament: One of above.  Universality: ?    is safe with two quotas between  it’ll be tough for whoever misses out of those three.   nevermind , 
    • The rankings look likely to give two spots each in the men's side to Egypt (2nd athlete at 3) and GB (second athlete at 9). the nearest contender after that is France and both Egypt and GB have plenty of contenders after their respective number 2 but before France's umber 2   Women's side looks a bit more of a battle, with Egypt again likely to provide 2, and then a fight between USA, GBR and BEL for the other lucky double spot. That said, so dominant are the Egyptians, Americans and Brits, that failing to find all the contenders in the top 50 is entirely plausible, possibly opening a third 'double' spot.
    • I'd done my final revisions on my prediction spreadsheets.. and I'm sticking with 26 for Canada.    Take it to the bank! (But don't sign anything)
