Yeah see my later post, I was entirely messing things up If you'd like to help our fellow Totallympics member Bruna Moura get to the 2026 Winter Olympics, after her car crash on the way to the 2022 Olympics, every tiny bit of help would be greatly appreciated!

Monzanator 3,569 Posted February 10, 2023 #63 Share Posted February 10, 2023 So apparently Norway was unaware they can enter 6 athletes for the sprint if they have a reigning world champion and someone in Top 15 of the overall World Cup? Arnekleiv was a reserve on-site anyway but Stromsheim is only travelling for the men's sprint now... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And in the mixed relay they forgot to controll the screws in Samuelssons rifle. Very professional Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

First, Norway was aware of its 6 quotas in the Men's sprint, but not with the pathway you describe. They had 5 guys in the top 15 + an individual quota. 6 guys were expected to start before F.F.Andersen had to withdraw. They decided not to replace him at first, but then sent Stroemsheim. For the women it's all on the IBU. No one knew how it worked before the "clarification". Actually it seems the IBU changed their minds after a German request for a larger interpretation of the "top 15 rule", hence the surprise. https://twitter.com/zigystardust77/status/1623786050811207680 Edited February 10, 2023 by SalamAkhi Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monzanator 3,569 Posted February 10, 2023 #66 Share Posted February 10, 2023 Well, at least it's good to know Norway doesn't run every winter sport that involves skiing and even they can be caught out by the rules Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
